Everton Transfer Thread - Summer 2020

[Bluestar]

He's not as good though in my opinion, a lot of dough that, have they employed steve walsh haha

I watched his video and thought that he was a straightforward, uncomplicated player. He is a slotter, no doubt, but nothing too complicated. So I take your point.

im genuinely not sure about Zaha for us, could be an expensive albatross. Or in this squad, could make the difference for a trophy.

Carlo seems to have the Midas touch though, so if he wants him....

 

[UptheTofees]

Think of James and all will be good

Jota scored something like 17 goals across all competitions last season whereas Zaha had about 4, he's a lot better than people think, i reckon he will do really well under Klopp tbh.

He got 7 goals in the league last season About half as many as Sigurdsson managed the season before. He's an average squad player for a mid table team.

Shaqiri Karius Grujic

Caulker, Oxlade Chamblerlain, Minanino, Solanke, Lallana, Klavan etc etc.

I said across all comps ie league and cups, he will show his worth i have no doubt, although it is a big fee i'm not disagreeing with that.

Well given Zaha doesn't play in the EL it's nit a like for like comparison. Given he won;t be playing in the EL, best to look at his league returns, which are pretty mediocre for a striker.

Let's wait and see what happens then, also i can't say i want Zaha here better options out there for the money.

Yeah. Didn't they lease a few large ships and filled them with oil barrels, when oil was being given away for nothing.
Not sure where I read it but £3bn profit was mentioned.

I did hear that. Someone said it was in the FT about Usmanov hiring loads of tankers. Not sure if it is true but catcher seems to be the guy in here who knows about financial affairs. He may be able to shed some light on it

 

[RomanReigns]

Wonder if Leverkusen would agree to loan us bailey with an option to buy

similar to deal spurs have with Fernandes from Benfica

 

[BlueDraka]

It is an awful lot for a club like Burnley, considering they are getting a player who can't stay fit.

Is he definitely going???

 

[ToffeeTim]

Is he definitely going???

I'd be surprised if he leaves

 

[blueblue]

Apparently there’s something weird with the payments of that sale though, the RS are only paying about 10m a season towards it

I think all clubs are using this format at the moment. The fees are are spread over the length of the contract to help cash flow and keep within FFP limits.
Up to a few seasons ago this was a fairly recognised way of paying for a player. I think we have done something similar.

 

[MrGrumpy]

Any transfer news in or out?

 

[Zatara]

Any transfer news in or out?

Someone made up a rumour that Delph was going to burnley for £6mil.

Other than that wishful thinking....sadly not.

 

[Barnfred 55]

I'm sorry but I find it hard to believe anyone is paying 6m for someone who is unable to remain fit.

Except us you mean
