Everton are supposed to now be leading the race to sign caen starlet M'Baye Niang after talks with arsenal have broke down he will meet with David moyes and others at finch farm in the next couple of days to see if the move would be ideal for him and if an agreement can be reached a fee of around 5-6 million is thought to be the required amount to land the forward with David moyes keen to add to his summer recruits by investing the money from the sale if jack rodwell

Niang is already on Merseyside mate source SSN. Mirrales due tomorrow also on SSN. Would be two great singings. Still need 2 more players . a right winger. I think we should offer Coleman as part of a deal for Matt Phillips as Hollaway likes Coleman as he had him on loan 2 seasons ago. Maybe Adam Johnson on loan or a surprise loanee or freebie which Moyes pulls out of the bag on occasions.

Apparently Everton have been granted first refusal for loan moves on the following Man City player : Dedryck Boyata, John Gudietti and most importantly Adam Johnson. I would be happy to take all on loan but that would use all our loans for the season up, meaning no Jan move for Donovan or Cahill.
Very Possible incomings I believe will be:
Dempsey
Johnson
Gudietti
Phillips
Donovan
Fetfatzidis
Kaditis
Holtby
Boyata
Some randomer no-one knows (Moyes Special)
Winston Parks . only joking
We have a very small squad, still three loan deals to use and 10 mil atleast to spend. 4 or 5 of the above I believe will come in, 2 pr three loans, one marquee signing and one randomer.
Who would you like to see come in ed?

I'm not sure on the exact ruling but it's something like you can have 3 short terms loans (Donovan) and 3 season long loans (Drenthe, Straq) that's why we could get 4 in last year.

I may be wrong but i think it depends on the terms of the loan, I dont think a season long loan is viewed the same way as the is obvious attached to the one club for the entire season.

So we are bringing in another 10 players?
How much do you think rodwell was sold for?

There has been nothing said about a big annoucement, people got carried away yesterday when it said on ssn that the was big new coming out of Goodison and right there was but it was Rodwell leaving thats all.
I do think the will be some good new shortly though. If Moyes signed the contract I think it would be a safe bet the was some money being made available so it would be a double whammey. It may sound odd but Moyes not yet being secure could be a good thing as the board need to work to assure him to stay.

Nobody with any links to the club seems to have disclosed any info on felli and gibbo. Apart from the obvious that they're not involved midweek for internationals.... Do they have a chance for next week? If not I'll be honest I'm worried. Felli is massive and he is out Gibbo becomes more important. Both out leaves me little hope. Negative...maybe... Realistic...definitely.

Why is every one so down beat on us getting Owen. Who would you rather come if the bench to get that vital goal, Owen or big vic?? I personally would want Owen any day of the week. People go on about getting all these other strikers, but to do what sit on the bench! Don't think so do you

What a blurt. Osman, Ross, Steven, phil, even jags can all play there. Owen is a class signing. OAO goal scorer not bad to have in your squad for nothin
Agree1

You can't call someone a blurt and then say owen is a class signing. He isn't a Moyes player. Ask a proper Newcastle fan about owen.. Also, don't jump on someone's back for showing concern and saying he hopes out best players are fit for a massive game.. How about not taking offense to something so minuscule.. Tell me we aren't weaker without Fellaini and Gibson. That's all the lad said. {Ed025's Note - i agree mate...and in future posts calling anyone names will be automatically deleted, the aim of the site is not to abuse other posters...be aware!!
Agree1

Sorry but Francisco, Barkley, Neville, Heitinga, Jags... Not ideal for centre mid against utd. Get away with it if they're in there with our big hitters but player any combination of these two and see what happens.. Too early for the young lads to carry so much responsibility. Osman crucial if the boys aren't fit Monday!

I'm not that worried about the midfield, with the link up play between Pienaar and Naismith we will take the game to the mancs, plus Ossies work rate we'll be fine

right this will be a fairly big post my apoligies....
People are moaning about kenwright and the board: yes theyre not the richest but look where we are in the league without spending mega bucks? i know its frustrating having to sell, but how do you know weve sold rodwell to appease the banks? moyes could of accepted the offer and seen a chance to purchase some of his targets, lets not forget rodwell was not a starting 11 player and the money being said that we got for him is alot and too bigof chance to waste on buying other better players, when he was already so far down the pecking order!
transfers: everyone seems to want us to buy ince and phillips personally i think it would not be the smartest thing for us too do, we need top already experienced players, imo we should go for johnson on loan, and isco for 8 mill because of malags financial troubles, also we shoud try and sign the greek trialist, and the other greek winger we have been looking at, i think we need a playerr like isco or marquee signing to get us fans going again, just like it did with the felli and billy signings we all got excited! until we saw billy play obvcourse;)
Junior: ive watched him alot recently and saw some of his city academy games he reminds me of a skillful classier lee carsley, i think he will be a big player for years to come im more excited about him than ross barkley even though he looks an exceptional talent.
manny fernandez: would love to see him back on a free to bolster the squad abit more we doo need more depth!

And everyone's favourite Bellefield-Sold.

Read 3 topics today. 1st - we have leap frogged the s***e in a loan deal for Adam. 2nd - moyes is lookin at some young Greek midfielder. 3rd - moyes stepping up pursuit of Dempsey. Personally I think the 1st an 3rd would be great signings. Adam is a big talent an a right winger (Naismith unknown) we've been missing for years. As for Dempsey he bags goals but also works his socks off. Owen isn't a bad deal either out an out goal scorer - wont do any harm havin him as an option.

Rodwell had not progressed in the last 3 years, in fact since he scored that goal against united he has probably gone backwards, he was either injured or not playing well, so to get 12m rising to 17m i think is a good deal

Its simple really, it's not a club agm. Remember kenwright stopped thembecause people were asking pertinent questions but apparently they bored him. This AGM is for the shareholders association which s a group to represents small/single shareholders. They are choosing a new executive committee after some of them stepped down. This meeting and any news to one out of it will be of absolutely no consequence to everton football club or it's fans(apart from those lucky enough to own. Share)

KenWRONG has been a saviour to our club. You obviously can't remember the mess we were in before he stepped up. Yes we don't have millions to spend every transfer window. But we're stable. He got us Moyes. Has kept him here for last 10 years. Signs up our best players on long term deals and we constantly expect top 7-8 every season instead of bottom half and fighting relegation every season. Which is how it was before him.

The mail online suggests that rodwell's move is worth 12 million rising to 15 mil. Personally i think it's the 15-20 million quoted by ssn. Also the mail online suggests that everton are trying to take adam johson on loan but this has nothing to do with the rodwell deal. May have some legs as city would have to offload johnson before signing sinclair.

Gotta say i think this is a great bit of business. I cant see him taking off over there and with the money they have if he isnt doing it he will be replaced quickly.
Never worked out what Rodwell's game was or his best position. Moyes can work wonders with the money we got for him.

It's £12m rising to £17m if he plays for England in tournaments or Champions League Finals or other things like that

Let's hope not. I think this would be a shocking signing. Why would we want Michael Owen at his worse? I much preferred the Kevin Doyle rumour, a player who wants to play good football and runs his socks off every game. Rather than one who'll run 100 meters and fall over and break something. Yeah Doyle would of cost more money but Michael Owens way past his best .. which is a fact!

This is what Mancini had to say about the signing of Rodwell:
"Jack is a good player. He is young. It is the first time he is in a club that plays to win and it will be different for him"
What an arrogant piece of s***.

But he is correct.
If the premier league champions who also happen to have enough money to buy any player they want, are willing to spend that much cash on a player, we are stupid to let him go. We are not playing to win. We are playing to hopefully get into europe in the next few seasons, and pay the banks back while we do it.
Still proud to support our great club. But dissapointed today.

Don't think he meant it in context its been taken simply referring to pressure of going for titles which will be new to him it will be new for Ager if he lives the other lot to join City

Exactly.....he needs to reign it in a bit....remember how shattered and beaten he was after the 1-0 at Goodison last season? More of the same please. Utd gave them the title on a plate, dont think they make the same mistake again

After Rodwells transfer Moyes #1 transfer target is Dempsey. Although he has been linked with other clubs including Liverpool, Moyes is a big admirer of the American and will try his best to secure his signature now transfer funds are available to use.

Unbelievable12
I could handle that... Dempsey in, Owen as a bench player, and then a loan deal to secure either a right winger or a more speed based striker to provide some variety. Still also predict Moyes is trying to offload Vic if he can and with that will free up one more acquisition.
Agree1
Disagree0
I've read this too, Moyes talked in the past with Dempseys Agent, and they are in good relations. Every rumour about Dempsey going to Liverpool has stalled and now it looks like Liverpool captured Gaston Ramirez from Bologna, so it's a clear way to Dempsey for us. Cheers!

Wouldn't want to pay more than 7 million for a 29 yr old who has really only had 1 good season and that was last year
Agree0
Disagree1
I agree that we don't want to be over-paying for a 29 year old, but the suggestion that Dempsey has only had 1 good season is just wrong. He got more publicity last year, but he's been a consistently class act for a decidedly changeable Fulham team for about 5 years now.

I've heard on twitter that Owen has signed for us. I'm not sure of the source's reliabilty, he has also claimed that RVP to Man U is done as is Ramirez to Liverpool, but if true, he is a proven goalscorer.

Everton have signed Micheal Owen. Will be confirmed tomorrow. This comes from a agent from twitter, I know people are skeptical about agents on twitter but this man is genuine and reveled details about Kagawa to United, Rodwell to City and lots more regarding teams in the North West.
Thoughts anyone?

I would love a big name now to get the buzz going for the new season. Hopefully we might get Adam Johnson on loan freeing up the cash. Have always liked Steven Defour, would be class to reunit him again with Fellaini.
