Summer Transfer Window 2017

[Tel001]

Geri never made it (4managers can't be wrong )
Barry was a no brainer
McCarthy went backwards at Everton
Funes Mori robbed the club and is too unpredictable to a quality CH
We will have to agree to differ on Bobbys skill in the transfer market
But for every Lukaku there a McGeady

Could have signed VVD , he went to saints in the same window I believe . But bobby knows best and got mori

 

[Zatara]

And who do you suggest we realistically sign to replace Lukaku
I said realistically i.e. Someone we can afford and who would sign for us without CL

Dolberg

 

[TheBigIguana]

Lads we are getting very Lucas Leiva regarding Funes Mori during this injury layoff

 

[Brisan123]

Dolberg

His club and his agent have reportedly said he is not going anywhere this summer.
If that changes 'bigger" clubs than us will be in for him

 

[Petit]

Dear God.
Am I mistaken or did Moyes get us into the top four in the premier league era.
Signing Lukaku does not compete lad.

Suppose the 1995 FA cup win should probably outrank signing Lukaku as well. My mistake.

Noting much came of that 4th spot though did it. We lost the qualifiers against Villareal.

 

[Petit]

I don't even know where to start with the first statement. We bought a player that Chelsea didn't want who had been on loan with WBA and Everton for previous 2 seasons and you think that's the greatest and most defining achievement of Everton in the premier league era?

You have a very low opinion of this club and it's efforts in the Premier League.

For a club of Evertons size and legacy, the last 25 years have been woeful mate. It doesn´t bear thinking about really.

There were quotes which were in the press till now about him saying he was staying...but the day after It was initially reported he denied them.

Ajax wont refuse a big money offer and neither would he.

He would also get game time with us which could swing the decision if other clubs were interested.

He also has Klaassen and Koeman here

Rather go for a potential world class star than a Giroud (Ashley Williams type deal) whose a cast off at a club were meant to be catching lol

For the next 2-3 seasons Giroud will FAR outperform what Dolberg would do mate, if all you do is try build towards a future with recruitment, then it will always be 'next year', thats the failing of a moneyball approach in this sport.

I'm a HUGE Dolberg fan as you know, but Giroud is the player we need now.

 

[cardno4]

hmm, not sure why any evertonian would want a worse player. His stats are a hell of a lot better over the last few years.

I don't want a worse player, I just don't see the merit in getting Gylfi bloody Siggurdsson for £50 million pounds! You could get Nasri for around £5 million or a loan and then have the money to go out and buy someone else or reinvest in other areas of the squad. We are going to have our pants pulled down on a player that isn't all that good.

Geri was fine. His assist count and crosses spoke for themselves. All supporters backed him for it. A manager preferred Kone, Barkley, and Mirallas..oh and Cleverly and an in form Lennon to him. Bad calls.. Then we signed Bolasie. Sevilla, I cant speak for. So really two managers and Bobbys delusion. And we made a profit on the player ffs!!

Barry could have gone elsewhere

Mccarthy was one of our best when fit. Even Koeman wants him. But he has been injury plagued for 2 years. He was linked to Spurs and Utd before then and we were fighting to keep him. Fortunately weve got other options now but he is a good player. Gone backwards? Give me a break.

Funes Mori has not robbed the club of anything. He is poor on the ball and if he didn't try passes beyond his capability nonody would even care but unfortunately he tries them often because his CB pairing is not much better. Mori aint going anywhere and has potential to be third choice and is better than Williams anyway. Quicker and better in the air. Would cover for Baines as he did last year.

Mcgeady barely cost anything and was rubbish hence didn't play much. So again, silly comparison.

Niasse was his major fault. Nothing else. Transfers ofc.

Nothing came from finishing 5th; we got humiliated by a crap Ukrainian team.

Potential vs proven hmmmm.

Nasri? Erm no thanks.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

Why sign him if he didn't play him , why waste the wages.
The point was signing Rom was a the high point of the PL era for Everton
It was a no brainer to sign Rom
A proven goal score who Chelsea didn't want and still had his boots in a locker at FF

Eh?

Signing Rom was the high point of the PL era? No chance.

The FA Cup run in 1995, Royle turning a bottom placed club into one of the most feared in the land was awesome.

Kanchelskis was a far superior player here than Lukaku.

The Summer recruitment of 07 when we bought Jags, Baines and Yakubu. That side in the following 2 seasons went really, really close to success.

Rom was a good signing. He never fully bought into us, thus never did it when it mattered, including one of the worst performances I have seen in a blue shirt at Wembley v United.
We made a profit and he will be forgotten about.

Nothing much came of signing Lukaku, we didn't win a single thing
