The summer 2013 Everton transfer rumourZ thread

[blueblue]

To be fair to any manager who is working without a budget it is incredibly difficult to pick up premiership players on a shoestring.

It is what David Moyes did best of all and it is a little ironic that his best trait will have little or no use or benefit for his new club where funds are available in large amounts.

Do we though? How do we know that?

I think it's safe to say that most don't have a clue.

McCarthy. Martinez's transfer records were quite predictable this summer.

 

[Brennan]

The only good profit Martinez made on Wigan player was Moses. No more. And he didn't sign Valencia.

McCarthy isn't sold it so we don't know how much he will go. I pray to God Martinez won't waste Fellaini's money on him.

Cattermole bought for £3.5m sold for £6m.

Cattermole bought for £3.5m sold for £6m.

£2.5m isn't a great profit. We made the same profit on Beckford alone. You see what I mean. He didn't really have an eye on cheap players and then sold them for huge profit.

We need some technical central players, are width is fine.

How do you suppose he should have consistently attracted quality players to a relegation battling side who couldn't offer high wages or pay big transfer fees ?

Diame, Moses, Kone, McCarthy, Maloney. All good signings which cost less than a Bilyaletdinov.

Diame and Maloney I'd give you.

Moses, Kone and McCarthy we're all well known to premier league clubs, well done to martinez for taking a punt on them but I'm sure wigan weren't the only clubs interested, hence they had some leverage for transfer fees and wages and were obviously attractive to the footballers.

Wigan have had no problem attracting the likes of N'Zogbia, landzaart, valencia, ramis etc.

Cattermole bought for £3.5m sold for £6m.

He didn't sign cattermole either.

This is a fun game isn't it?

You said he didn't make a good profit, stop moving the goalposts.

You've got it in for Martinez and have since day one.

Our...ffs it's our not are..... come on lads, it's not hard.

Oh ffs, how much is my fine officer?

 

[toffeejack]

Name a few of 'em mate.

rangel and williams are a couple of examples of players he bought at league 1 level who don't look out of place in the prem, at very low fees as well. Bodde was definite premier league quality but had too many injuries.

there are many more, but i really cba

*Oh ffs, how much is my fine, officer?*

 

[hktoffee]

Bily cost £10m, the combined cost of those players was about £11m. So yes, near enough.

We lost £1.5m on Kroldrup. We lost £3.5m on Bily. We lost around £9m on Yak.

However, Moyes had made around £17/18m profit on Lescott alone, yeah on 1 player.

I don't know how can people have a go at Moyes regarding on transfers. We have been in the top 7 (more or less) since the last decade because of Moyes's transfer policy.

 

[Brennan]

He didn't sign cattermole either.

This is a fun game isn't it?

*shrug*

If you're that intent on criticising our own manager then good luck to you.

Nope, I think I had it right the first time.
