Today the market in Europe closes, everyone is very attentive to what may happen with the James y Díaz issue. Very complicated, Everton is trying to make something concrete with Diaz. For James' departure, the problem has always been his salary. Patience ... but it is difficult, very difficult.
Boss, us, aren’t we?
Just bite the bullet and agree to part of James final year wages and be done with.
Surelt we’ve got loads off the wage books to be able to absorb 9 months of wages?

If that's all it is, I reckon it gets done. Bit worried they might want a fee that's too high for us or just not be that interested in James at all.
Decisions like this over the past 5 years are exactly why we are where we are financially
Not really. Paying James in full to have him sit on the bench all season under a manager who doesn't want him, is equally poor from a financial perspective.
The idea we will find someone to take on 100% of his wages is wishful thinking. It's not going to happen.
We are in a bad situation, but we can only look after the future. We can't change what has already happened. If paying half of James wage allows us to bring in someone like Diaz, then obviously we should do it.

Personally, I think decisions like pandering to Ancelotti and handing players who can't run £200k per week are why we are where we are financially, rather than trying to get those wages off the books
If we're actually still trying to do this, then Porto can push it as late as they dare, knowing full well that we really really need to get James off our books today. Would be delighted if it came off, but they'll probably push us to the point where it becomes completely unviable.
This is why you have a director of football to make sure you don’t give 150 grand a week to a player and then appoint a manager who will never pick him but that’s another one we can put on the list of firsts.

Knowing us we will pay for James to go to Porto and not get the paperwork for this deal done in time.
Just leave this here.
Same clubs involved
5 years ago today .
Don't have him sit on the bench all season then, use him like you would anybody else in the squad
Well he also directly contributed to 14 goals in 26 games played, so you know, swings and roundabouts
