Player Valuation: £100m
For what it's worth I like Vin Diesel in everything except those Riddick movies. Just couldn't get on with them.

Vin Diesel looks like my dad.

At the risk of incurring the wrath of @MoutsGoat i have real concern about the ability of the boy Besic to stay healthy. I like the player, but think planning around him is perilous....Agreed. We can't trust Jimmy Mac or Besic to stay healthy, and Davies is still too young to be relied on. Schneiderlin has played under Koeman and is at least a proven Premier League player

Gueye - stud
Schneiderlin - what the doctor ordered
Barry - at this stage in his career not a week in, week out player over a season, but the kind of professional that benefits a club
Davies - very promising, but still very young
Besic - injured, but I think a nice player, can we count on him though...
That is a solid group. As to the others...
McCarthy - I think he will be sold, and I think he wants to leave to pursue first team football. I like the lad so I hope he finds it.
Cleverley - we will receive an offer and he will be sold
Gibson - if we are fortunate enough to receive a real offer then he will be sold
Wednesday: Positive talk at the AGM
Thursday: Lookman signing, USM and a weird sheep video
Come on Everton, give me some material for tonight.
Kone was £5M, Barry was £1m; Holgate was 500k; Lennon was £4.5M; Mori was £9.5M.Lukaku 28m
Besic 4.5m
McCarthy 13m
Kone 6m
Robles 2.5m
McGeady 1.5m
Niasse 13.5m
Mori 10.5m
Deulofu 4.5m
Lennon 5m
Tarashaj - 3.5m
Holgate 1m
Rodriguez .5m
Barry 3m
Thats 97m worth of players if you actually include all the players he bought mate, rather than picking and choosing one - although can see why you left off the ones with utterly no resale value as it would undermine your point a lot wouldnt it.
Now heres a question - remove Lukaku from this list and of the other 13 players bought by martinez would we make a profit or a substantial loss on the 69m paid ?
Kone was £5M, Barry was £1m; Holgate was 500k; Lennon was £4.5M; Mori was £9.5M.
You left out Galloway for 400K and Cleverley on a free.
All told Martinez spent £80M on the 24 players he brought in, not £90M http://toffeeweb.com/players/transfers.php
Just by selling Lukaku we'll get half that back. In this market where players like Bolassie and Schneiderlin are hitting the mid £20M/late £20M mark, a player like McCarthy is going to go for no less than £18M; Mori will fetch easy that £18M also; Deulofeu will fetch £7/9M (FFS, Anichebe fetched £6M 4 years ago!) Galloway will go for £4/5M; Cleverley will go for circa £5/6M; Holgate will fetch right now £8/9M; Tarasaj there will be no loss on that and we'll scoop probably £3/4M back; Barry sold tomorrow for a nominal fee of about £2M; Lennon would get us about our money back again, so £4/5M; Niasse will be bought by a Turkish club for a knockdown £4/5M; Robles would fetch about £4M in this market place; Kone and McGeady we'll get zip for.
Let's say we get (conservative £50M for Lukaku), the rest would fetch between £85M/£90M. Total with Lukaku = £135M/£140M.
I think Barry should be kept around for those park the bus situations as he can be an excellent passer in counter-attacking situations. We need to try and drop some of the dead weight (and McCarthy who deserves first team football somewhere) and strengthen some other positions after we bring in Morgs *fingers crossed. CB, Wing and a backup ST that can accommodate Lukaku.At the risk of incurring the wrath of @MoutsGoat i have real concern about the ability of the boy Besic to stay healthy.

£5MKone was £6mil
Can we talk about the wages his worthless signings have and continue to suck out of the club or do those not count? Let's aggregate those into this cost shall we?Kone was £5M, Barry was £1m; Holgate was 500k; Lennon was £4.5M; Mori was £9.5M.
