Summer Transfer Window 2017

[The_La]

this whole bedwetting thing. I understand why people are peed off - but Everton have changed what, 3 quarters of our starting 11 over the last two transfer windows. Lukaku was always going to be an almost impossible player to replace.
I'm concerned that we've not (yet) done it. But to call this window a failure feels like a stretch to me.

We'll find out soon enough I guess...

Jim keeps droping barkley in to the chat. If everton think they can not sign a striker then make a massive thing of Barkley signing a new deal. Livid. Head just fell off which is anoying as I'm at work

If you take away all his goals from last season we would still have finished 7th

Often spouted but utter nonsense language. A lot of Rom's goals buried sides last year. No hanging on, no nervous final 10 minutes, just the game dead and buried against demoralised opposition. To take them out and claim they had no effect is plain wrong.

So 16 goal Sandro isn't a forward

A centre forward as in a replacement for Lukaku? Give yer head a wobble.

I'm massively intrigued to see how we do without Lukaku's goals this season.

If you take away all his goals from last season we would still have finished 7th. He seemed to score a lot of additional/consolation goals for us rather than out and out winners.

Interesting times.

Right.

To say his goals didn't kill off the games is ridiculous.

You think we finish each of.those games clinging onto a 1-0 lead? Cos I know Everton of late and that isn't usually the case.

Not only that, we'd be much closer to 8th than 6th in that regard.

Suddenly the thought of Andy Carrolls head on the end of one of Gylfi's sexy crosses doesn't seem so bad

*Slaps myself in the face*

Sorry guys, it's been a long day, I don't know what I'm saying.

 

[GwladysBlue]

Matt Law is back at it.

Absolute does my head in, him.

What?? So according to you DCL is a replacement for Lukaku

Lol

 

[Wayno]

Remember when we used to play Blue Da Ba Dee Da Ba Di after we scored.

State of that

Craig .. The Scottish savage..... Lilly x

 

[Thomasc]

We are stronger. But not any stronger then the teams who finished above us

Yep, definitely the case.

On paper we won't be making any ground on the top 6, but you never know I suppose, stranger things have happened.

 

[Abraders]

I want a striker desperately.

But if the right player is not available what can we do?

Sanchez and VVD would be tremendous but they won't come.

I think the right striker would be available if we really had the riches we go on about

Or he scored loads against [Poor language removed] ?? I said the same in a sentence

Another thing that is never included in that stat is any assists Lukaku made for others.

Sky reporting that Zapata is leaving Napoli - isn't that the lad we bidded for this summer?
