Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

Too fat and old to put the legwork in anymore Moyes.

Ths is his last big pay day and he doesn't have the dynamism for the job anymore. Unrecognisable to the man who was here first time around IMO. You just have to listen to him post match. The fire is out. The interest gone. And by that I mean obsessive interest, the type we saw 12 years and more ago.

He'll play ball with parsimonious owners and we'll run relegation a close thing if we dont sign the required quantity and quality.

This is not good.

Nah, you only have to look at the scope of improvement from Jan to May, standards implemented and culture developed and results achieved. The team that took on Newcastle in May were unrecognisable to the team in Dec.

There is literally nothing we can criticise him for objectively.

He’s gotten bolder in my opinion, he called the owners out on the pitch on the last day at Goodison and did it again last night, calling for 9.

Gauntlets flying around the place.

They just need to get on and start getting more deals done, starting next week.

Tbf your description of Moyes parallels your personas most recent faux grumpy old man diatribes

Moyes says he wants 9 players and some fans are trying to make excuses for thats too many.

No wonder Kenwright got away with it for so long.

What was the story with kobu? Was it just that he was valued too high and we've walked away?

 

[Aries]

Are we ignoring the facts we have spent 45m on three players already?

We have you’re correct. But let’s not pretend that’s suddenly great going. It may seem it because we’re all not used to spending any money these days, but we’re still lagging way behind most others when it comes to investing in playing staff.

Paul Joyce said it was the stumbling block, but it didn’t say we’d walked away. At least, that’s how I read it.

Makes you wonder why Thelwell was kept on until the end of his contract instead of being let go or put on gardening leave if there was no succession planning or transfer strategy put in place for the new setup to pick up on.

It may suggest his job involved more than transfers.

Good ol,Socialist Reds there...still working on a shoe string I see.

Wasn't so long ago they were accusing teams of buying the league ha.

Makes me jealous, our football life is genuine miserable isn't it.

If you let it make you miserable. Just remember that ultimately the club doesn't care about you so you're better off still following it but finding other things in life to keep you happy.

As I said earlier if three of those are starters in the correct positions fine, 9 is a good number.

 

[Nymzee]

How come we're not getting the likes of Maeda and Kyogo? They could cut it here.

Everton's scouting network is dire.

Could they balls.

They have FA excuse to trot out if they don't win the league this season.

Its is mate...but we are who we are.

As a fanbase we're not a walking Contradiction...We'll never try and claim to be something we're not,unlike them.

Sure we'd like their success but if it meant compromising who we where for it, I'd pass up everyday of the week.
