We do like to overthink situations and explore every angle don't we.

Perhaps the fans would be happier with a more pro-active shifting of the dead wood but then you'd have expected that to have happened during the world cup, so that money could be spent now it's over.
I think you may have missed one salient point in the theory of the free market
In order for a vendor ( Everton ) to sell goods ( either wanted or unwanted there must be a purchaser who is prepared to pay the Vendors asking price ( or close to same ) and be prepared to offer the unwanted goods a weekly salary that the unwanted goods find acceptable
This has only happened once to Everton in this window
 

You’re right bolasie 27m won’t be beaten for a long long time , Ings for 10m is a terrible transfer but bolasie is still worse


I listened to him being described as Palaces lynchpin before we signed him and ‘unplayable on his day’ when we signed him and pre injury. I don’t recall him being either.

I think he’ll go down as one of the worst pieces of business we’ve ever done.

The only good games he has had in his career have been against us and RS, I never wanted him and don’t get all the fuss about zaha either, he is bolasie 2.0 mark my words

Zaha is a much more rounded player than Bolasie. Better touch, better pass/shot. Uses his skill in the right places.
 
glad u were gripped it’s absolutely destroyed my life all self inflicted I know but come on here as I’m unavailable to go back to twitter and see this ,best staying off line altogether

Hope you’re alright mate, apologies if my post was insesitive - my intention wasn’t malicious. x
 
Bernard's a free agent? Really??

NEA, we should be all over that if so.
Someone has changed his wikipedia page to say current club is WHam, but I think that's probably a blue on the wind up waiting for the fume on here. I think he's still available, but there was a story a day or two ago that he was choosing between us and arsenal and someone else, for whatever that is worth.

Oh, and:

This week is going to see a lot of people get very stressed and rightly so. It’s worth noting that a lot of business gets done in the last week of the window - all parties (buying and selling clubs, players, agents etc) are trying to drive the best deals they can get.

Just like last season when clubs knew we were buying and squeezed us, they know we need to sell this season, we’re probably a bit of an easy touch at the minute.

As unfounded as it may be, i have more faith in the current reigieme to do a better job. Last season was such a failure that it could only have added pressure and focused minds.

I’m placing some blind and perhaps misguided faith in Brands, silva and the new board to get us back on track.

I’ll probably regret this.....
Great. That means when we buy some dullard and he turns out to be totally useless we'll have the ready-made excuse that he missed pre-season training. Seems we are the only club who, when a player misses pre-season, he goes onto have the worst season in memory. People were still using that excuse for McGeady 9 months after he arrived
 
Would bite Watford's hands off for Richarlison and Doucoure... but Watford won't give us tidily squat, especially for the bargain basement price of 50mil

Apparently Rodwell is having a trial at Watford, so they're going to need a lot of money.....
 
The Silva interview was the first I have heard from him. His English is not as good as I had hoped. His Portuguese colleagues may be similar. The word "important" was used more times in 5 minutes than "phenominal" was used by Martinez.. It was partly the fault of the interviewer whose questions were really poorly thought up.

Brexit in a post?

In all seriousness, there has never been one story from Watford or Hull that he struggled to communicate. It won't be an issue.
