Does anyone no what's happening with this Vicente deal? ( if there is one at all)

It is just a rumour, but if moyes wants him, he better get there and have talks with him quick, or he WILL slip out of our hands.

Vicente was a wonderful player but has played barely 45 games in four years. His wages would be in excess of £2 million a year. Can we afford to gamble on him suddenly overcoming his injury woes as he approaches his 30th birthday? He was a great talent but if valencia thought he could be again then he wouldn't be on a free.

We did on Saha and in my opinion that's paid off

Phillip green why do people think he has any link to the club re- the sale bill holds the cards and doesn't want to sell unless a massive profit comes in and nobody is going to meet his asking price

Park and Brown, are we trying to make a United reject team? {Ed011's Note - Park is a class act, most teams would be interested in him and brown could be experienced cover for us. Neville, Howard and saha have all been good business

I agree ed, park has been fantastic for united. Brown could do a job for us as cover for the centre backs and maybe to fill in for hibbert at right back

Moyes can secure his transfer targets with a bit of wheeling and dealing. I trust moyes as he is very good in the transfer market and he usually gets it right, maybe with the possibility of a striker on loan

Sky reckon if Sturridge moves, Fulham is the most likely destination... C'mon Davey!! Hurry up!!!

If we miss out on Sturridge and he goes to Fulham i will be a very depressed blue! have you heard this ed? {Ed011's Note - I haven't no, he would be great for us on a season long loan, i am confident he would choose us over fulham if he had to. Two things to bear in mind though, Fulham is close to chelsea, handy for a season long loan and if he is settled down there and moyes might have his eye on someone else

If he wanted to stay in London why did he come up north to Bolton?
Sturridge is a class act and I'd love to see him at goodison next season

Hi Ed, All these rumours today of park, welbeck, kayal, defour, bothroyd, vicente etc, have you heard anything yourself because unless we have major investment there is no hope of any of these bar bothroyd and he is crap. Also i see people are spouting off about a takeover again which is complete and utter bull. Sorry for the rant ed but i get really wound up this time of the year. {Ed016's Note - i know the feeling, Witht he sale of yobo/yak seeming imminent we shold have some funds, vicente would be free so we can compete with that but wages may be a problems

Dont no why we dont just stick with the Yak and keep the squad together! if we can stay injury free i can c us having a decent season1

We have a decent squad, its just needs one or two additions and maybe it is worth giving yak one more try, he was great when he went out on loan last season

I believe we will do well next season. We were great in the second half of last season, with quite a few injuires, we made goodison a fortress beating the likes of city, chelsea and spurs. With everyone fit and a couple more signings we will be at least 7th again right, with a shout of the top 6 {Ed011's Note - i agree with you

With a good start we would have every chance of top 6, as long as our home form carries on from the end of last season

Like so many other Evertonians, I do get frustrated that we don't seem to be able to compete with many other, (some of them much smaller), clubs in the transfer market. What makes it even worse is that Moysie would only need a relatively modest budget, (by modern standards), to make us a top 4 side.
However, I cannot understand all the posters who constantly have a go at Bill Kenwright. Have these people forgotten what a mess we were in when Peter Johnson was chairman? Since Bill took charge it has been an(almost) ever improving situation, season after season. He also deserves huge credit for keeping Moysie at Goodison.
To all these fans who think they want Kenwright out, can I just suggest they take a look 35 miles north-east of Goodison at Blackburn Rovers. They made the massive error of allowing 2 "playboy chairmen" to take over. These guys obviously had loads of money but zero football knowledge, made obvious by their first action - sacking Big Sam. The team was hugely fortunate to avoid relegation this season, and, despite all their money, I believe they will be struggling again next season.
Is that what these fans want? Our great club being used as a plaything by some foreign rich kid, who would probably want a big-name ex-player with no management experience at all as boss just to boost his ego? I know I certainly don't. I am sure that if an investor who would put money in & not want to interfere in "on the pitch" matters were to come along, Bill would have him in like a shot. Come on people he IS one of us - a true blue Evertonian.

Bill is a fan and i am sure that he has worked hard for us, but we need someone who can take us onto the next step, as this club should be challenging for trophies

Bill is a fan, however as a chairman he is a waste of space, please leave bill kenwright we dont want you.COYB IMWT KENWRIGHT OUT FACT

Fact is, that those not niterfering investors that you speak of have come along before, the problem is that Bill wants to stay on and have a controlling hand in everything, who is going to invest millions of pounds in any club/business when the old chairman still wants to hang round and have a say in everything? i got told this a few years back from someone at the club, and who still works there now

Moyes top 2 targets are sturridge and n'zogbia

Agreed.. tht would be awesome.. BUT will he be given the money to buy them?? I'm afraid tht sturridge will be out of our reach.. hes English.. around 15-25m for sure.. As for zog.. Hopefully we can get 5-6m from Yobo.. 3m for Yak..

Excited bout those two agree totally

does anyone know how much tomas pekhart for czech republic u21 would cost or what club he plays for
because if hes cheap he could be a good signing instead of going for more expensive striker and he is supposed to have a very good strike record
this is just an idea so tell me if you think he would be a good signing
