The NSNO Everton Forums

Yeah, ToffeeTV alluded to it early last week. Journo’s we’re all over it too.

On the Talking the Blues podcast, The Esk gives a fairly succinct (well, 20 min) explanation of why the Freidkin Group pulled out. Not far off what Kieran Maguire said in his tweet. Basically, uncertainty around where that £200m 777 lent us, actually come from and which of the parties in question ac...

It’s the middle of their season so they’re match fit. We’re not. It’s a huge leveller. And, tbf, we’ve had a load of chances.

…..aaaaaaaaaannnnd we’re back to being fucking goosed.

Liverpool fan apparently, but whatevs

This off the back of celebrating when Brighton equalised against Everton, last season.

Almost every team looked shagged. It wasn’t a great tournament at all. Compare that to the WC in Qatar and it was night and day.

Having a tournament mid-season felt like anathema at the time but think there’s an argument for playing it when players look fresh and interested.

Think Keane and Holgate move on too, so add a couple of CBs to the list.

Think Utd come back in for BranthwIte before the end of the window but hopefully we’re in a position to turn it down.

There are only so many clubs capable of paying £50m for a player and if those clubs don’t need a DM, then that will also impact his price.

I think the Caicedo fee has skewed our perception of what is a good fee. I just think that was a mad summer from Chelsea.

£50m - £55m is still a massive fee for this club.

I think he’d score 8 goals if he played 38 games, but he can’t hold the ball up so we’d have to completely change the way we play.

Hull accepted a bid for the player and Villa had a clause in their former players contract to be able to match any bid. They’ve matched the £16m bid from Ipswich. If, say, we went in with an £18m bid, Villa would have another 3 days to match it. Etc etc. Essentially just a bidding war. Depends what ...

Can see this rumbling on and the lad going for nearer £25m

Sure the kits will be fine but the Castore/Stake combo is just a bit grim. Hardly blue chip stuff.

Ipswich probably came back with a revised contract offer.
