People losing their minds over a fake rumour.

I mean I’m praying it’s fake like.

A young player for cheap, from the Bayern and Barca academies is exactly the type of player I think we should be picking up as a backup. Great opportunity to find a future star, provides cover at the position, and if they dont pan out it doesnt cost much and we arent relying on them to start.

Now Aznou being willing to accept it is a different matter, since he apparently wants to leave Bayern due to lack of playing time.

If you believe it you need a lie down.

Antonio?

What have I missed?

Are you new here ? An innocuous post here can spiral into a multithreaded discussion .

Page 1945 and someone's dropped the Antonio bomb on us! I shudder to think what the second bomb will be!

I'm not expecting fireworks in all honesty but the start of a long term plan and vision to get us where we want to be going forward. Signing the likes of Antonio or Coufal is screaming no forward planning just plugging gaps

Any chance of maybe just a couple of competent footballers like? Is it either FM wonderkids or Michail Antonio?

We just signed Thierno Barry for our CF position so we have two competent footballers in Beto and Barry competing for that spot which both looks at the current period and future of the club and that position. Chermiti going on loan and an experienced striker coming in to be that third choice would also be forward planning as it would in an ideal world give Chermiti valuable experience and minutes that he needs to develop and wouldn't get at Everton.

Realistically, if we are going to sign another CF it's either going to be a free signing or a loan move in my opinion.

Straight choice Mike as you know we only can do extremes

Of just use Keane up there if we need to plan for this emergency

Give it another week or so and you’ll be BEGGING for Antonio you fiends.

Would prefer someone like Vardy etc. as an experienced choice but don't mind Antonio. We need a third striker and if we can get someone on a one year deal while Chermiti can get a loan then it's sensible.

I’d rather we gave Chermiti game time and developed him here than contribute to the pension fund of some over the hill has been .
Everton have developed something of a habit of providing a sanctuary for such players to eke out the last days of their playing career during the last 30 years .
It really has to stop .

Be realistic though. How much game time would Chermiti get over Barry and Beto?

People basically already are. The denial is so strong that we have loads of people justifying signing a fella that hasn’t played for 9 months and was on a zimmer in March learning how to walk.
