Charlie Nicholas is a bell end.

Fixed that for you.

Now we can all clearly see Ron why you joined the Everton project. But ok, this is football.

 

[Khalekan]

Got a goood engine.

I am liking Norbert more and more

Very silly to the transfer deadline day coinciding with International matches.

We are doing a bad job selling to buy as we've currently bought more than we've sold.

I'm not sure who to blame for this. Thoughts?

Barkley, McCarthy, Niasse, Lennon, Mirallas will all be sold within 6 months.

Try again

The big boys are spaffing money in Waitrose while we're round the back of Farmfoods rummaging through the bins.

We're doomed.

We're like those people who get their giro's and blow it in the first week, then have to borrow for the rest of the month.

Have you not seen Galloway the last couple of years at West Brom and now at Sunderland. He is shocking mate, my ten year old daughter would do a better job defending.

Luke Garbutt couldn't even get a game for Wigan, people trying to paint a picture that everything's fine but when people start proposing that Martina can play left back if Baines get injured, im sorry but thats not looking good.

Ivan Strinic of Napoli linked, Croatian international left back.

Thoughts?

Never mind. Been pictured having a medical with Sampdoria.

 

[ToffeeTim]

We've signed a stack of players who all play in exactly the same position

He's having a medical at Sampdoria at the minute I believe.

 

[Abraders]

Vlasic, Perez (loan), dendoncker and werner.

Just do it Ev ffs

Barkley, McCarthy, Niasse, Lennon, Mirallas will all be sold within 6 months.

Apart from Barkley they're all gash or inconsistent and offer nothing to the team. Or would you rather keep them?

It's nice how you mention the players you want to support your post, but completely forget about Robinho, Zola, Petit etc....

It IS to do with the board though. We can go back and forth all day but after breaking everything down its about cash. Money attracts bigger names. Money will buy you bigger names. Unfortunately it's as simple as that.

I'm not forgetting them at all. Merely pointing out that it was not an overnight thing. You could also look at Middlesbrough who did try the overnight thing with Ravanelli, Juninho, Emerson, Boksic etc, they went down a few years afterwards.

Facts are there is more competition for players these days. Champions League is key when it wasn't back then, you have 4 teams who can offer that (five this year) before you even look into other nations, back then you had 1 or 2 depending on the timescale. More clubs with more money and more to offer makes it harder than it was back then.

I want signings too, we all do, but I am not going to blame the board or anything like that when quite simply the players who we want may not be available. Who have we missed out on who has gone to another club for example? We want Giroud by all accounts, but either he does not want to move or Arsenal don't want to sell him so what can you do?

Pathetic really isn't it!
