New Everton Owners: The Friedkin Group

I thought coming from Brazil?

Brexit my friend, Brexit. Or something like that!

Given the amount he’d cost and that he’s already got full international caps there wouldn’t be any issues at all

How??? I ask everyone how???? The player would belong to Everton if this happens, not Roma! Roma would get a loan of one of our young players, we get a much better and mature player back in a year or so. I can’t understand for one second how some are spinning this as a negative. It’s basically using a great club in serie A to prepare a player for the premier league. How can this be interpreted as anything other than a win for Everton? This is insanity.

We've got limited resources, spanking £30m on a player that then doesn't play for us is a win?

Edit: And we have no players. Let's sign players that we would like to play for us.

This is one of the silliest posts I’ve seen in a while. We need to get a Brazilian international ready for the Prem - by playing him in a completely different league?

And we should use up valuable PSR space so Roma can benefit in a position we need a player for?

Not to mention the idea is Roma actually keep him rather than us.

Good job it’s nonsense as I don’t think Moyes would be as thrilled as you.

Good job we didn’t send Branthwaite to Holland or anything eh?

For a bunch of people who spend so much time moaning about Everton not doing any future planning, to have this much of a problem with Everton doing just that just doesn’t seem right to me. Pretty much everyone does this, they buy a player, then off he goes on loan until he is ready. Saying we have limited resources and then basically demanding nothing but finished products seems a little strange to me.

The story (which is nonsense tbf) was Roma want the player. They wouldn’t be developing him for us.

Very different in about a million ways, but purely from a playing perspective - Branthwaite was a 19 year old from Carlisle United.

This guy is 22 soon, a full Brazil international, fresh from the club World Cup, with a £30 million price tag. I’ll take a wild stab that he gets in our team at right back.

May be true but every single football club forum is exactly the same. Even Man City.

Doesn't make it right though, its grating at times & exhausting.

Where on earth did I say that?! Players can develop at the club and also don't have to cost thirty million quid. For thirty million I want someone to go straight into the team, yes. If that seems strange to you then I'd like you to show me all the times we bought a player for that much who didn't go straight into the team.

Moise Kean.

Not taking sides, but he just came into my head when you asked the question.

We can conclude on how TFG perform in the transfer market at the end of the window.

They definitely deserve credit for quietly and efficiently selling the women’s team including GP.
Whether that was to help the recent PSR year or to provide transfer headroom for the new PSR year, we will see (probably a bit of both).

When did they sell the womens team and GP ?

They kept that quite. I`ve only heard of Villa follow that Chelsea scam to get out of PSR trouble.

Recently sold internally within the Group.
Private company to private company so doesn’t require any external disclosure.
I expect it will come out eventually.

I was surprised we didn’t have to sell any players in the last year.
