Will Everton break their transfer record this Summer?

When Bill told Martinez he'd be getting a few quid, you do know he meant it literally dont you?

It would be fcuking hilarious if the board went all ambitious on us. I'd pay to see the look on Moyes' face as we pip united to Lucas Moura


Wouldn't be until next summer at the earliest that mate.
Ah yeah your right, the sweet feeling of him rejoining for free will make the wait worth it :)
 

I think we should sign Strootman.

I base this purely on the fact that last window someone referred to him as "Rootin' Tootin' Kevin Strootman".


On a serious note, nothing will happen for a while as people enjoy their hols before pre-season lads.
 
I think the biggest problem is balancing size of squad. i read somewhere i think an article in the independant saying we had the second smallest squad in the prem ever this last year(please dont quote me on that !!!!!!) and hitz, pip, and jan(sob,sob) have left since. so obviously to me we need three squad fillers and two first teamers (playmaker and striker) but unfortunately on a budget. Also i think Fellaini and Baines might stay due to world cup year and staying first teamers so i dont expect any Felli money, probs heitinga though and maybe big vic(not RM style)
 

If we have say 20m, we need to buy a 10m striker and a 10m midfielder, not four 5m players, not one 20m player.
 
Imagine if we broke our transfer record on James McCarthy. Just imagine it.

No, I refuse to imagine it.

This guy on the other hand...

He's twice the player.
 
We had one of the smallest squads in the premier league LAST season, since then we have lost 3 more players. We needed more players before we lost those 3, and one of those covered about 4 positions for us too. I'd love for us to go out and get a top player, but i think we need to adress the depth of the squad more importantly.

Yeah but look at the 3 lost....

Mucha - A back up GK can be found on a free so easily replaceable.

Hitz - Was mainly brought in to allow Barkley loan time away who I see as an important player in the squad next season. So IMO already been replaced.

Neville - His RB duties are already covered with Coleman, Hibbert and stones. CM a little short so a CM needs bringing in.

I see the point if no one leaves, would be hard to spend 15M on a striker and no one else. But I see players leaving so really shouldn't be the case. The likes of Heitinga Naismith Fellaini and even jelavic could all move on. If that's the case we could still break our transfer record and bring in 4/5 players.

Think it's gonna be an intresting summer.
