Moyes is better than Mourinho
Gary Medel, Sevilla to Cardiff for £11m - 26 years old, over 60 senior caps for Chile
Etienne Capoue, Toulouse to Spurs for £9m - 25 year sold, 7 senior caps with France
Emanuele Giaccherini, Juventus to Sunderland for £6.5m - 28 years old, 14 senior caps for Italy
Tom Huddlestone, Spurs to Hull for £5m - 26 years old, CBA to check his england caps
Leroy Fer, Twente to Norwich for approx £4.5m - 23 years old, 2 senior caps for Holland
Time will tell if any of them have better Prem careers than McCarthy, but presumably these are some of the transfers you were thinking of. Perhaps Taraabt and Granero being loaned out by QPR might also fit this category?
FWIW I think Capoue looks a decent buy, from what little I've seen of him so far.

Spot on McCarthy is a workhorse with no skill and if he was that good UNT would have taken him by now or is he over priced? he certainly is not worth 8 million imo if we could afford him without selling Felli he would be good cover for Gibson , and Osman! He may have time to develop but we are skint!

Thanks.... the point I was trying to make is that some on here want a player as good as Fellaini for around the 10 million mark... it ain't gonna happen. Out of your list above I hold my hands up and say any comment on their ability would be purely speculation on my behalf.... except for probably Huddlestone... who in my opinion SHOULD have been a very goo player... but it never happened for some reason

I've never seen this forum hate on a non-Everton player so much purely for being linked with us
Saying Fellaini is better than McCarthy is like saying 1 + 2 = 3

IT'S RIGHT GOSH DARN IT!

Capoue is at least on par with fellaini. I watched a lot of him last season and he was amazing. still annoyed nothing was done to get him, he would have been fantastic here.
Write a letter to bill for not putting the lotto on to bid for him! Really mate were on the beggars mark hence are ****e signings ****ing 6 mill

Its just poor timing. The combination of Martinez's 'global market' comments and the fact we signed 3 wigan players with one that was actually pretty expensive for our standards, isn't going to make easy for any Wigan player or Martinez to escape skepticism. I doubt we will care this much if a year from now we're still rumoured to be in for him.
Tbh at the beginning of the summer I would've happily taken McCarthy over Alcaraz/Kone or Robles.
