January Transfer Window 2023

[Melchizedek]

1600 pages and no signings. We'll done everyone. Really went below and beyond this year

 

[mccole]

Still some deals out there folks

Trying to be positive.
Perhaps there'll be players available as 'free agents' after 11pm.

Signings like that are a big part of the reason we are in this mess

Indeed. Which is the reason why I said we were in a better position back then. We probably shouldn't have brought them. But to to say they contributed nothing is wrong.

Arguably now the short term shot in the arm is desperately needed.

But back to the original point of debate, ol Igster was making out players won't join a hoof ball merchant. They will.

It's not like we've been chasing Mbappe either.

The problems with recruitment this window go far beyond Dyche - indeed, back to the point you make, in part. Poor previous buying and the ongoing Ev circus. Not just Dyche as Iggy makes out.

I'm defo getting that plane and banner made up for him though....

Someone said between them Southampton and bournemouth spent £100m!

On rubbish

 

[BlueToff]

That's fair but I dont think we were good enough or winning enough matches to focus on stadiums.

Its been Moshiri's priority ever since he came here.. if you're priority in football is ever anything other than the next game, you'll be found out. We are learning the hard way.

it all leads into one though mate. Everton need to bridge the gap. A stadium is a huge part of that. Goodison is outdated and we need that move.

However, where i do agree is that the people who run the club view it as a silver bullet, that it's going to solve all of our issues magically without any of the other systems being in place.

All the players we've been interested in when they've been told...

Imagine thinking pictures of Maupay and McNeil will flog our merch

 

[Blue peter]

Impossible to understand that we are unable to LOAN a single offensive player that could at least bring some depth to the team

Not sure about that ….I think some of the performance have been completely offensive

 

[RomanReigns]

well at least the esk was right

 

[Hogwild]

Where’s the Gordon money Bill ?

Apparently for some reason he gave it to Southampton and they proceeded to spend it on our targets. Go figure.

Good job, it said Shirts - no way they are getting £20 for McNeill.

 

[Kirkles]

I do feel sorry for you guys, the Board is making a complete mess of things. But I don't think it is incompetence, yes they are not the best strategic thinkers on the planet but they are not stupid people and they can see that relegation is a serious concern now, particularly with Saints, Leeds and Bournemouth pushing the boat out in this window. The issue must be money, or lack of money and it appears much more serious than I had thought. Moshiri appears desperate to complete the stadium at all costs as he sees that is his best chance of getting some cash back. It is grim but on a positive, it does look like his ownership of EFC will be coming to an end

True , all linked to Usmanov and Moshiri wanting out but needing the stadium finished . Its not going to be pretty but they will be gone once the stadium is finished I reckon. Going to be a tough 2 years and will get worse before it gets better.

Isco is on a free I think. No point anyway. These cretins have no interest signing anyone.

Don't bother.
