Dave whelan on sky sayin two other prem clubs besides villa in for Nzogbia. He said they dont wanna be named but one really wants him but are strugglin to raise the finance. Wonder who that is Embarrasin isnt it? {Ed025's Note - yes

I get the impression that Whelan wants to do business with the blues but he's not going to hang on forever. {Ed025's Note - i know..unless we get a rattle on..were going to lose him..

Thats exactly what i was thinking mate, it would suggest that n'zogbia would prefere us so he can stay in the north west maybe ? and dave whealen and davie moyes have a decent footballing relationship, but as you said he isn't going to wait forever because he will want money himself to buy player's Get a move on blue's This is becoming ridiculous

if phil jones if worth 16 million then jagielka must be worth near 30million so if we do sell jags which i hope we don't we should hold out for a bid around 30million {Ed025's Note - if we sell him to the reds...we would get £80m they pay over the odds for everyone..

Rodwell is still just 20, and has plenty of time to become a top class midfielder - especially if his early career injury trouble is down to growth.

Rodwell possesses a powerful strike, is decent in the tackle, comfortable on the ball, and a good passer who plays with his head up.

He has all the attributes to become a great footballer in the right hands - and could replace the retired Paul Scholes.

Would £15m be a gamble or a steal for Manchester United? {Ed025's Note - i would say..a steal....the reds bought, henderson for £16.5, and hes better than him...but utd can afford to rotate and rest players..our squad will be stretched to the limit..

Rodwell will be a top midfielder and a very good centre back in a few years, he is worth more because he will be as competent in two positions {Ed025's Note - its nice to hear something positive about rodders..im sure wherever he is in a few years he will be successful..

I still think we won't sell anyone apart from yak and yobo and we will just get a couple of players on loan, or maybe a 5/6 mill player, with the funds from the sales. {Ed025's Note - i think you may be right..but it may be easier to get rid of shingles...than the yak..

This could well be the season for rodwell to shine, in an everton shirt of course. {Ed025's Note - i would love to see that..

Cant understand why an update I provided wasnt printed, seems the Daily Mail followed it anyway regarding Jags.

12 million rejected Arse will now come back with a deal worth 18.5 million with add ons.

On earlier comments it was mentioned that Scott Dan wont come to Everton cos he is an Liverpool fan, errrr Peter Reid, Kevin Sheedy, Alan Harper, Dave Watson all Liverpool fans...originally {Ed025's Note - you are right..just because you support 1 team...does,nt mean, you cant play for another?...but i would prefer..gary cahill...to scott dann..

How about samba from blackburn as a replacement for jags if he moves to the arse? Different sort of player, but a top player. {Ed025's Note - hes ok...but hes not jags..i dont think we can afford to lose him..

I trust Moyes to find a bargain who is as good as Jags. {Ed025's Note - hopefully...jags wont leave..

Dont no if reading have sold him yet but matt mills is a great cb {Ed025's Note - he is good.....but he has signed for leicester..

Just a question for you all

Rodwell, Fellaini, Jags and Baines are all classed as our top leavers.

If one was to go for 20M which one would you prefer to go and why?

Steve J (Blue Nose) {Ed025's Note - rodders..because he has yet to prove himself..to be premiership quality..

Thank you someone agrees with me for once

Steve J (Blue Nose)

Me too, Steve. (See my reply to another post below this)

Toffee Tezza

It has been talked about that rodwell might eventually become a centre half, if jags goes could moyes give him a chance there next season and spend the jags money on a winger and a striker, with heitnga and distin being the first choice partnership

Non of them we gel well as a team so we dont want to break apart now do we even though we are short of cash, and we could always sell billy, yobo and yakubu to raise funds for N'zogbia and finaly get donovan back on loan happy days

Its gotta be rodwell, baines and fellaini are the best in there positions in the prem and jags has proven himself as a top class player definitely as good if not better than gary cahill whereas jack didnt progress last season all his performances were averaage

I would sell Fellaini because he's been injured most of the time and lets face it at some point in the next season or 2 he will leave. He has already stated he wants to go to a team who can offer champions league football so at some point he will go. Rodwell is young and will improve and christ he's English?? We achieved all we did last season without Felliani didn't we? {Ed025's Note - not many people will agree with you..feliani..is a proven quality player...rodders..is potential...yet to be fulfilled..

22 Jul 2011 12:56:34
Yep i dont know what hes been taking. Cant be an evertonian, and if he is, we could do with out him. He obviously isnt the brightest in the world.

everton dont need to buy any players we have many very exiting prospects coming through we are on the verge of something very special trust me.when the new laws on home grown talent kick in we will be wiping the floor with everyone kenwright and the board arnt stupid they know exactly what there doing have some trust believe me this is going to happen. we will piss all over liverpools over priced english signings we have twenty hendersons coming through come on you blues ps av you seen the size ov barkley hes a tank this year is going to be the year everton turn things round now come on blues get behind the team and show the rest of the leauge its not just about money come onnnnnnnnnnnnn everton {Ed025's Note - just when i was losing faith....you come along.....AND CHEER ME RIGHT UP!!!......i needed that...thanks..

Your welcome lad ive been falling into the doom and gloom trap myself alot lately its easily done but ive thought long and hard about this everton are a very proffesionally run club.they know the way things are going and they know we cant compete financially but they knew this years ago.thats why we got finch farm we have lots and lots of very exiting prospects coming through rodwell and rooney are just the tip of the iceberg. halam hope for exaple looks fantastic and from what ive seen and heard about barkley hes going to be the envy of every team in the league and there just two ov many coming through not being funny but nzogbia and players were linked with we just wont need them soon we will be the ajax of england trust me come on you blues get in there ive refound my faith and it feels so good {Ed025's Note - praise the lord for this guy....to me..he is the second coming....look out world.....everton are coming to get ya..

Im big al bates by the way and we can all lose our faith but you will never lose your love of the everton so get behind the club and lets hear the raw of the faithful come on you blues {Ed025's Note - well said big al..

Hello Mr Kenwright hows the 24/7 search going?

We can't rely on youngsters, youngsters make mistakes. We need a new player that gives us goals and decent experience. {Ed025's Note - i remember a certain mr hansen saying that, and getting egg on his face....but i agree with you....i would like a new forward..

Don't have the same faith mate. The board aren't very good at all. No getting away from that. Arteta should have been sold a couple of seasons ago with the money reinvested. Rodwell should have been a done deal at the start of this window so we could build early. But why go on about Liverpool? P*$$es me off. Unfortunately they look like they've sorted them selves out and no doubt about it have bought quality players (if over priced). But thats them. Don't back the board blindly. They're at fault. We're at a cross roads. Lost. {Ed025's Note - being life-long everonians, we are used to adversity, in fact ..we thrive on it!..we know we are the poor relations on merseyside..that s what makes our achievements, taste that much sweeter...the reds spend hundreds of millions each year...we spend about thirty bob...and they are no better than us!..so be proud..and hold your head up high...for we are THE PEOPLES CLUB, and the pride of merseyside..

Your wrong ed. I'm not having a go, just disagreeing with you. If the club was ran better we would have more money to invest in players. Have more achievements? What achievements? Winning a derby? Beating the Mancs? Getting in to europe to be turned over? With the history of the club, if that is what we've now lowered are sights to then we'll never compete ever again. If you think that our youth team is going to save us then I'd have to disagree. They'll be sold off before any of them has more than 2 seasons under their belt. Then maybe Kensh*te will suddenly find his buyer. This obsession with the redsh*te is pointless. In truth, they are at a level we should be at. That's why we're jealous. They'll probably feel they're not at the level they should be at. That's why they're jealous of UTD. If Hodgson had stayed on for the full season then maybe all of our dreams may have came true. But they have turned it around. Don't forget our youth was battling it out with them for 1st and 2nd. Days gone by for the first teams. But this season, our first teams are going to be miles apart in my opinion. Is its our dream to see liverpool crumble? Not mine mate. Forget about them. Everton need to improve in all area's. On and off the park. This is a dig at Kensh*te and nobody else. Read a post of a fan saying he's shrewd... Well your correct. And he's got the measure of you. {Ed025's Note - thanks for your post mate...i know that a lot of what you say holds water!..especially the points about our board, and chairman..who in my opinion are an absolute disgrace!...my point..is that we cant do nothing about this..we must all stand together and support the team , as best we can, and to be honest..i dont give a toss about what happens across the park..

When are all the Everton players going to realise that they are at a fantastic football club with a very shrewd & talented manager in David Moyes. In our team we have the players that all the teams who finished above us last season want Leighton Baines has been linked with Arsenal & Man City, Jags with Arsenal, Rodwell linked to Man Utd, Chelsea, Man City & Spurs. Fellaini linked to Chelsea & Man Utd and Arteta linked with a move back to Spain and Heitinga to the Bundersliga. None of these players should be allowed to leave and they should believe that if these clubs want them to boost their chances of winning trophies, they can win trophies here at Everton if they all stay together & we sign a top class wide man with plenty of pace who can supply the crosses for a decent striker..... N'zogbia & Long/Pavlyuchenko maybe. {Ed025's Note - i agree..great post mate

22 Jul 2011 00:39:07

If Arsenal bid 10m for Jags, we will NOT get 18m AND Walcott, Walcott is young, English and fast. He's valued at around 15m himself {Ed025's Note - dead right my friend..
