4 loanees in the starting 11 and no more business this window?
Am I the only one desperately unhappy?

Martinez video interview already up on the site.

From what Martinez said, no chance of him in the derby.

Said last ten games, which is a little disappointing.

Also the fact he said he'd be the last signing is very disappointing to me.

 

[Librarian]

If he learned how to balance the ball on his nose, he could run, unchallenged, the length of the field and then quickly duck under the bar and chin it in.

Have you not read Big Doug?

What four would they be exactly ?

'We're not signing McGeady until the Summer'

He signed two days later.

Link him up with Trindon Holliday and we're set

What four would they be exactly ?

Perhaps not week in week out, but potentially Deluofeu, Barry, Lukaku and Traore? Not a bit concerning now?

We don't play two up front mate.

I don't really see getting boss players on loan as concerning...

'We're not signing McGeady until the Summer'

I'm hoping it's the same here mate.

But with it being evertons actual interview as oppose to one for sky etc i don't know if it's the same.

 

[LTblue]

What a signing, we have got two very good strikers for the rest of the season.

4 loanees, one of which who will almost certainly become a permanent signing in the summer (Barry) and one which has really been a peripheral figure to the team (Deulofeu).

I suppose it is a little concerning that 2 are strikers, both of which will go back to their parent clubs. But in the meantime we can use them to finish strongly.

If we get into the top 4, we'll have the money to buy permanent replacements.

We've known for a long time that the club doesn't have any money and the money we do get goes on.... well... on loan fees and debt.

It's a way of getting to where we want to be. Rather than sit and pout like Moyes did, at least Martinez is trying something different. Moyes loaned the odd person, but Martinez is fully embracing the system.

Barry will sign in the summer.

Effectivley replaced Deulofeu with McGeady

A loan striker to cover Kone is reasonable.

We've got the money to replace Lukaku in the summer.

So no, not that concerning. I see why you'd think that, but no.

 

[SerenityNigh]

We don't play two up front mate.

I don't really see getting boss players on loan as concerning...

Option A: Player wears the team's shirt
Option B: Player does not wear the team's shirt

Agree that buying is better than loaning, but at some point it gets to splitting hairs

 

[sheedys big toe]

do we not got an option to sign deulofeu for another 12 months?
