..I was told earlier that Barkley has signed a new contract. We're all being told something.

I just take it all with a pinch of salt Eggs, until they're holding a blue shirt up that is.

Nothing going on at Tesco in Deysbrook Lane, no sign of Lacina or Crouch in a helicopter yet

In all fairness considering sandro and lewen play kinda our wide coming into the middle and Rooney spends half the game at the half way line.

Can we say we even have a striker? Someone to sit up top? We have 3 players essentially to play off a striker and a player to create for a striker but no-one who can actually sit up
Top and play as a target man/focal point of the team.

I mean what happens when lewen gets marked out of the game?

Probably the same thing that happened whenever Rom was marked out of a game - not an awful not.

To be fair the blue shirt I'm hoping to see Barkley holding up is a Chelsea one.

I hope we're not being hectored into signing Troy.

Hasn't he had Achilles issues?

Goes on strike
No clubs make bids
Everton make bid
Close mate Koeman is there

Southampton or Everton with Koeman....

Koeman hasn't attracted a single star to join.

Maybe because we have no cl...think about it lid...

Very believable actually, given the strange timing of spurs leaking they would not be interested in signing him this window and then switching to another target which suggest they won't be back in for him later

overused words fume and bedwetting.Alot on here want everton to progress. To be better than the are. We need a proper front man to progress. We just sold one. We had 2 summers to find a partner and now a replacement. We didnt and failed badly at it. We have a car and engine but no steering wheel. We gonna crash. Its not all doom and gloom but no progression. Some of us are tired of not progressing and not pushing for top 4. Others seem to be happy to drift in 7th 8th 9th place. Reality will tell you no proper front man no top 6 push not to mind no champs league push . Correct me if im wrong please.

yeah i get that, that's how i feel. But some of the stuff on here has been laughable. We've addressed every issue except that one. People will say centre back too, but mori's injury and other injuries have caused issues in that regard.

I believe we've chased a lot of options for the striker position, and most haven't happened for whatever reason, but the OTT reactions on here are laughable. I bet the majority on here will be listing this transfer window as a 4 or 5/10 because they're too impatient, it's been more of a 7/10.
