Everton Banter Archive July 07 2017

 

Use our rumours form to send us everton transfer rumours.

07 Jul 2017 23:37:33
Ok so if Chelski has equalled utd's
Offer. What is that exactly because Utd supposedly offered 75 plus add ons to equal 90. Plus I can't help but wonder Rooney had some part of this even though it was "completely seperate"
Why would Everton half way through negoriations if not more. Suddenly stop and start all over again for the "same deal" which surely would cost even more time and money. Surely Chelski would have to pay 90 mill cash upfront to get Everton halt what they doing and listen .

Maybe you should stop being so ignorant to everyone ed, boggles my mind why people think you know loads about transfers / finances. Majority of the stuff you say never happens. Or you say things in a way that your not putting your credibility on the line. Eds like 25 who can have a joke and banter are what keeps this site going, your a cancer to these pages ed002. Feel free to disagree.

Agree2 Disagree3

{Ed002's Note - That is OIK. You get your way. I will give nothing more at all to the Everton site. I clearly can't help, sorry. I feel sorry for your use of the word "cancer" - I am pretty sure the Everton fans did not see me as such - but after that - I will be gone for a while Ryan - feel proud.}

08 Jul 2017 01:03:22
Shocking post Ryan. Ed002 can be harsh often, but when you get the same post over and over, it would pee you off too. You have just basically told a well respected editor on these sites to bugger off. And to call him cancerous is a low blow, considering a much loved little kid passed away from it. But well done Ryan. An editor who goes out of his way, even tho he is a busy working man, to get information for us evertonians and put together his sharkpod for us, is no longer going to pass on hos knowledge. Bravo mate.

You complete d*ckhead Ryan117117. I love the input we receive from Ed002, and all other Eds that give information on this page (soft spot for ed025 being a felliw blue) .
To insult anyone in that way is utterly disgusting! Now we all lose out because of a c*ck-womble like you.
On behalf of all blues on here whom i'm sure agree with me, SORRY Ed!

08 Jul 2017 02:41:21
What a total idiot you are son, all the Eds give up a lot of their time to keep these sites going and to keep us best informed to their ability, but unfortunately keyboard warriors like yourself can ruin this for the majority . To even suggest that someone is a 'cancer' when sadly young Bradley has just died beggars belief, let us hope you don't have to go through the same trauma as his parents but if your parents have to go through this then wouldn't that be Karma.

08 Jul 2017 06:26:41
What an absolute twit you are Ryan. Are you sure you're a blue? I seem to remember a couple of controversial posts from you before, i may be wrong. To abuse Ed002 or in fact any other Eds in the manner you did you should hang your head in shame. Especially with what's happened to young Bradley (rip) You clearly have no respect for yourself or anybody else and i suspect you're a bit of a mummy's boy who throws a tantrum when someone disagees with you and you don't get your own way. It should be you apologising to Ed002 not Worcester for your crass remarks. Man yourself up grow a pair take it on the chin and issue an apology to Ed002 firstly, secondly everyone on this site you have offended, and remember Bradley Lowry and what agony his family are going through right now, and everyone else who have been through the same before you open your mouth and use that word again to call anyone. If you haven't got that in you because you're not man enough i suggest you crawl back under the stone you came from and never use this site again.

08 Jul 2017 07:02:44
well what a tool Ryan is I hope he wakes up this morning with a headache from his cherry lambrini and a std from some dirty hooker he used last night (that's the only way I'm guessing he can get any prob been saving his pocket money up for 4 weeks @ fiver a week) and I find most of the info all Eds give us are normally spot on but well done ya twit (change the I to a A) 👍.

08 Jul 2017 07:35:52
I've been a reader for years but have only just felt the need to register a profile to respond to this post. Won't go on the attack against Ryan but I will say that I love the fact that Ed02 can be to the point and on the nose when it's warranted ie. the same questions and comments from posters unwilling to search for an answer already given. Always gives me a good laugh. Love all the work all the Ed's put in day in day out, all the way from down under. There's so very little chat about the blues in this part of the world, every man and his dog is a kopite bandwagoner from years passed. Hopefully that'll change with our new investment rolling in. Keep up the good work lads!

Agree1 Disagree0

08 Jul 2017 07:42:16
Ed001, could I please suggest that Ryan would need a lot of work to even be considered for "moron" status? . He is way below that achievement level.

An object lesson to us all as to what happens when Mummy doesn't get you into Pre-School early.

Ed002, apologies from all of us who are capable of walking upright and breathing at the same time.

Agree2 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - good point, I apologise to all the morons on here for suggesting he was at their level.....}

08 Jul 2017 09:32:29
I agree with banning him Ed025 totally. What would of been better is if he was man enough to apologise (which i doubt) you could of posted the apology for everyone to see, then told him he was banned. I hope Ed02 has a change of heart and comes back to the fold. don't let a moron like ryan airhead make you feel that way.

{Ed025's Note - that wont happen jimmy as his account is blocked now, we cant tolerate abuse or the site will disintegrate mate..

F*ck off Ryan you divy we all appreciate the info off the eds, if you don't, find another site, hope you change your mind ed02 and just dismiss this idiot because your input is greatly valued by 99% of the real blues on this site.

08 Jul 2017 08:17:55
Ed2, please do not leave these pages, I've had a few disagreements in the past but can totally understand why you are sometimes a bit blunt, repeatedly asking the same question to me would severely piss me off too, your knowledge is fully appreciated by the majority of posters and one tool should not ruin it for the rest of us, also to even mention the word cancer whe isnsulting someone shows exactly what sort of poster and what intelligence he has, stay with us ed you know it makes sense

Degs.

08 Jul 2017 08:18:38
I think it's quite clear who needs to be leaving this site and it's not ed002.

We all disagree from time to time but there is utterly no need to this stance against someone who puts in so much effort to this site.

Not that I think Ed002 needs someone to fight his corner he's very capable scraping the rubbish off his shoe! Sorry for the swear again but warranted.

07 Jul 2017 21:53:11
I wonder if all those people who don't rate Lukaku are having a long hard look at themselves as currently . The biggest (top 3) club in the world is fighting it out with the Premier League Champions for what could be a World record signature! Yet some (not all) of us still bang on about his 1st touch, work rate and being disrespectful. Food for thought. Let's go shopping I say Blues. 1st Stop.

Believable1 Unbelievable1

08 Jul 2017 05:07:45
I don't think there buying him for his first touch or his stinking disrespectful attitude it's about one thing and one thing only.
His goals.

Agree0 Disagree0

08 Jul 2017 09:09:25
Chaps. glad u said this I've fended off three man u fans in work. They all said they did not want him, that morata was a better player. that he can't head a ball, trap a ball, or hold it up. to which I pointed out he's scored 20+ goals per season for the last 4 years. he's paid to score goals. that said I'm glad he's moved now. he's been threatening it for long enough. his goals will need to be replaced. and I think strides have been taken already to add more goals to squad. klaasen, Keane and Sandro all score goals according to their record. assuming Rooney comes so will he. just need another CF. also the dynamic of the team will change . we may play better if not relying solely (largely) on Rom.

Agree0 Disagree0

08 Jul 2017 09:56:13
Is right JCL. I hope Mr Walsh is making calls to the Celtic Park hierarchy as we speak. Dembele would do me nicely!

And so it begins, I said yesterday I felt Rom would be a Chelsea player by the middle of next week, and it has now being reported that Chelsea have matched United's £75m bid.

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Chelsea bid £75m for Lukaku. Hopefully they'll be in a bidding war with Man Utd now and we'll get nearer the £100m we originally asked for.

Believable0 Unbelievable1

08 Jul 2017 09:13:30
I am not agreeing to what Ryan said or should I say way he said it re " cancer to this site " but he did praise Ed 25 and there is a vast difference between what Ed 2 and Ed 25 day and more importantly HOW they say it .
I myself have commented before on Ed 2 and that in my opinion he is often quite insulting to both individuals and EFC in her general and extremely surprised that he has not been asked by whoever managers the site overall to tone it down .
I suspect that many posts complaining about him have not been shown as several of mine in this subject have not . Nobody is not saying he works hard to provide the information he does but so does Ed 25 for example but there is no need to be outright rude as Ed 2 often is
I am hopeful you will print this and NOT ban me
I have not been insulting just giving a honest opinion that if you insult someone or are rude to them then you got to expect criticism BUT NOT THE WAY RYAN SPOKE and I am sorry for that .
All the public sector workers all work hard but that does not mean they can just go round insulting people and a vast number of Ed 2 posts are very cutting to Everton supporters
Just saying.

Agree0 Disagree0

08 Jul 2017 09:59:49
To be fair to Ed02 he's like that to other club's fans too (especially the dark side) so you can't fault him for his consistency. Myself I love his sometimes caustic comments but more so his knowledge and detailed information which is pretty amazing considering he's not even a football fan. Hopefully he will be back soon as to lose him because of one twisted cretin would be a massive loss to our site.

07 Jul 2017 15:31:47
Lol. made me laugh. tbh I'd rather we looked elsewhere. not bitter towards him. just think that he's not the right fit or of the right form anymore. if he comes then so be it. but don't understand fascination. However, just wondered how his arrival would impact line up and other acquisitions? Is Sandro able to play on wing or is he an out and out striker. Would the intention be to use Rooney sparingly? As happy as I am about transfers I don't get where Rooney fits in. especially if GS comes and RB is still there. plus klaasen!

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - if wayne plays he would play as a false No9 just behing the lone striker (hopefully giroud) with sandro wide, or ideally for me not at all with sandro and giroud as a double act up front mate..

07 Jul 2017 15:44:21
Good shout! Ground great old style centre forward. can't think of anyone else in premium league that could be available that is better to be honest. the only other chap I like is mandzuciz (spelling) but with a regular spot and champs league could not see that happening.

Hi Eds,

If no one were to come in for lad and we chucked serious money at Torino (asking price met) .

You could be right Ed025 but what if a lot of people have put on a lot of money (to come in from 40/ 1 to 2/ 1 is excessive) and the bookies have HAD to bring his odds down to join us to offset their losses. Imagine their faces over the park. PRICELESS!

07 Jul 2017 13:13:45
Seeing rumours we have entered talks with Southampton over Van Dijk for 65 million, any truth in this? I like him but 65 million is excessive. Also any truth in another bid for Sigurdsson, and Dembele (celtic)

Believable1 Unbelievable0

{Ed002's Note - Twitter?}

07 Jul 2017 13:46:32
Van Dijk yes twitter. Sigurdsson was a couple of news articles on newsnow that we will bid again, any truth? And Dembele there was tentative links the other day so was more asking, as Lukaku appears to be gone.

{Ed002's Note - Yes GS remains of interest. MD is more of an issue as he has demands about playing time - otherwise his move elsewhere would already have been sewn up.}

Hi Bluey mate there will be a lot of games coming up with Europe and we will need top quality throughout the squad, i think R K is really going about the rebuild in a serious way he knows what needs to be sorted and in my view is doing a fantastic job, if we get Belotti or a similar striker up front and also Gifi he will have done brilliant, cheers mate GuernseyBlue.

Agree2 Disagree0

07 Jul 2017 13:13:39
But where do you think Rooney would fit in if we get these players as well, I can't imagine Rooney swapping the subs bench at United for the everton bench or gifi being happy at the prospect of having Rooney to fight for one position.

Agree0 Disagree0

07 Jul 2017 10:19:00
I have to admit I can't wait for Utd at home I think Lukaku will get a rather loud reception from us and he will then realise how we actually feel about him which isn't loved hopefully we will beat them and he will leave a headache as I feel that's all he will leave with he never let Everton into his heart and like a lot of modern day players feel nothing for our great club or amazing fans.

Believable4 Unbelievable2

07 Jul 2017 11:06:14
100% agree bluey.

Agree0 Disagree0

07 Jul 2017 13:21:41
Bluey - I don't see why you would give him a bad reception. He's a young striker who came in and has scored us a load of goals and believes that he is good enough to play regularly in the Champions League and so wants to play for a team that is in that position. He doesn't think he can do that at Everton so is looking to leave.

He clearly doesn't want to be here so because of that I think we should sell him and 75mil+ is a good deal all round.

We've been perfect for him in terms of the step from Chelsea bench to one of the most expensive in the world, and he's been great for us in terms of the goals he's scored. it's been a mutually beneficial relationship that is reaching a natural close.

So why boo him?

I hate this thing that has crept into the modern game of booing everyone just because they used to play for us.

Agree2 Disagree1

07 Jul 2017 18:41:59
I will boo him for the way he has treated our club southern and I don't understand how you don't get that if he had kept his mouth shut and not talked about moving to a bigger club every 5 minutes I would wish him well on the next step in his career but his total disrespect for our great is a disgrace and that's why I will give him hell upon his return to the old lady.

Agree0 Disagree0

07 Jul 2017 10:07:55
Apart from the pursuit of Rooney by man utd and the ultimate sale I can't remember the last time Everton got so much media coverage. The ongoing Lukaku saga aside, we seem to be in the news almost every day with the players we have signed so far.
We are now linked to the qpr player Josh Bowler who is apparently having a medical today.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

07 Jul 2017 10:01:44
My thoughts for what it's worth.

- Amazed with comments like "statement" and "marquee" signing. I'd much rather a 10 million pound player that ends up being a a marquee player all day long personally. Also, I'm not sure why we would need to make a statement signing, teams won't care one bit.

- I am dissapointed that Lukaku is leaving, the prospect of him with our new signings had bundles of potential to be really very good. However, his attitude clearly stinks and it's the right move for everyone now for him to move on.

- Has anyone else been loving this attention we are getting from opposition fans and media alike? Some of the comments I have read on social media from other teams fans I think at least confirms that people are potentially nervous about us this year, more so than the last few years anyway. I haven't looked forward to a new season as much as I have this one for a while now, any signings I get excited about, especially now as out recruitment seems to be in the right place to get players in who buy into the ethos of the club and who will improve it significantly.

Believable1 Unbelievable1

Interesting that the "Rom not returning Ronnie's calls" appears today

I'm sure the boss knows what's going on, why would he embarrass himself by ringing Rom with his Thursday no-show? then telling everyone he snubbed him.

Or B. bit is spin to get everyone on Rom's back and glad to see the back of him. smooth the waters ref transfer?

Has Lukaku been given permission not to return for pre-season?, until he's signed sealed delivered he's still an Everton player, I hope he's not being paid for the mockery he is making of our club.

ssn reporting lukaku still in la and will probably have his medical etc out there before joining up with man utd in la for their pre season tour.

He was given permission to have an extended break because of international games, if he did not come back as requested he would be fined.
The club are negotiating his transfer and I'm sure this will be resolved shortly, who to we do not know, but the expectation is Man utd.
We all knew he wanted to leave ages ago so I don't really still understand the obsession with him, and what he is doing?
He won't be playing for us again and I for one have moved on from Lukaku and look forward to seeing his replacement in our colours!

{Ed025's Note - well said wakka..

I think it's replacements, we were too reliant on him and RK knows this which is why he's gone for signings and productivity. So I don't think we will have a 25 goal player but maybe 3 x 10 goals.

I agree we need options up front and to change both formations and playing style at times.

Now I'm not sure what to believe from the rags when they say 75+ agreed then an hour later top bosses from Everton dismiss it. Lukaku I'm on about if you haven't heard.

{Ed025's Note - yeah them 2 would do for me eddy mate, i dont know how we would keep them all happy but it would be a nice problem to have..

I'd also like to see Dembele sign I think he's a great talent.

I think the Rooney purchase will be more business decision than a football one. He is essentially a global brand. Moshiri is a fantastic business man, so if he thinks signing Rooney will take us up a level commercially I think we have to trust him on it and isn't a better commercial business what we have been crying out for?

Totally agree ToffeeAL Rooney will raise our profile it will be talked about all over the world.
I just hope if we also sign Giroud, who I feel will be a great addition, that we also buy another youngster Dembele or Dolberg for me!

Bidding from Man U and chelsea should start at +100 million, plus addons and let them fight it out. They are both desperate for a striker, so hold your nerves Bles (Everton) , make the pay, they both held out when we try to buy from trhem.

Can anyone shed any light on why EFC need to arrange a £60M overdraft facility with a Chinese bank when we have a billionaire majority share holder?

{Ed001's Note - because all teams finance transfers with short term loans. Or do you think he sits around with hundreds of millions in cash just waiting for this moment? His money is not cash, it is mostly based on the value of the equity in the companies and property he owns, just like all the mega rich.}

07 Jul 2017 14:31:00
It's a facility to allow us access to money ad hoc and quickly. So we don't have to go to the bank to arrange borrowing, we can just use this sum and then top it back up after it's used. It just allows us to react quicker to purchases and transfers etc. It's a good thing.

It's a float (granted a pretty big one) that the club can tap into anytime they like. So if in the transfer window a player Rom really wants becomes available then the cash is there. The club then don't have to go looking for expensive short term loans at high rates of interest.

Just a few/ thoughts​ theories
1) Add 5 million of add ons to 75 million roughly covers £100,000 aweek more Rooney wants per week
2) Rooney signing for us will be paid for in our image being raised globally.
3) If Moshri wants Rooney, even though I think he is past it, who I am argue.
4) Nil Status Nisi Optimum. It's a long time since I've believed we can live up to our motto. Can I dare to dream?

Not Everton related but poor little Bradley Lowery is now unresponsive. Family say it's a matter of when now. Forget about football for a second and say a prayer for the kid. Never seen so much fight in someone so young. Cheeky smile on him, loved football, adored Jermaine Defoe and enjoyed his time at Goodison and other grounds. Heartbreaking.

Your right at the end of the day football is just a game, this is a little who is sadly losing his fight to live, my thought arecwithvhim and his family, so sad.

It's so upsetting to see what that little boy and his family have been through. Heartbreaking. He's touched so many people in his short little life and has remained a smiling little diamond, such a brave little man. Had to feel for Jermaine Defoe yesterday too. You can see he genuinely loves him and was broken yesterday at that presser.
