Hi Ed, with Lukaku going, what do you make of these claims that our signings to date have only been made in anticipation of receiving a huge fee for Lukaku? Do you agree with this or think it is rubbish and would have expected Everton to make the same signings for the same fees regardless of Lukaku's departure.

{Ed002's Note - Yes, Koeman is getting the players he wants.}

06 Jul 2017 15:34:31
Part of me thinks we have paid more than we expected to get players in early and give them as much time to gel. Being completely honest, I couldn't careless anyway. It's not my money and not my job to care about it.

£75mill accepted for lukaku.

06 Jul 2017 10:26:13
shocker from us lowering down the price by 25 mill, bowed down to a club who are throwing money at anyone for a striker, need to make an even bigger statement with the cash, 50/ 60 million pound striker needs to come in to replace the one we have inevitably just lost.

{Ed002's Note - Nonsense - and who would theis "statement" being made to?}

06 Jul 2017 10:28:27
He had to go mate he didn't want us any more but wish him good luck but we have a new start as well and a lot to luck forward to.

06 Jul 2017 10:32:46
Think it's a decent price for both he doesn't want to be here and they need a striker just hope we get a decent striker in to replace him doesn't have to cost loads just potential and present.

06 Jul 2017 10:38:37
Have to agree with you Stef mate this is an excellent piece of business for Everton £75 mill is a hell of a price but good luck to him, hopefully who ever we bring in now will want to play 90mins every game, the world is our oyster good good things ahead for us Blues, long may it, sat, GuernseyBlue.

Glad it's done at last, been dragging on too long. I would love to see Rooney come back now.

06 Jul 2017 10:34:46
ed002, the league obviously mate, you telling me replacing lukaku with sandro and giroud is showing everton are back, come off it lad ahahaha when the lukaku money comes through cannot say 'ahh well buy Sigurdsson with the money' he's not a striker and we needed him even if lukaku stayed, big striker name needed imo.

{Ed002's Note - You don't seem to understand plain English nor the finances, nor the plans of Everton. The club has known for a year that Lukaku would move this summer.}

06 Jul 2017 10:44:28
Me too Lee mate, would be excellent for the club, further to my post above who says Rom was ever valued ar £100 mill all those reliable rags I expect, usual load of tripe, cheers mate GuernseyBlue.

06 Jul 2017 10:53:30
Media now saying that no bid has been accepted. This coming from Everton. Jim White, who is saying he's having info from the top at the club.

06 Jul 2017 10:49:01
ahaha ed .................

{Ed002's Note - I am not going to be abused by some knuckle-dragging moron like you - another removed for good.}

06 Jul 2017 10:59:29
Knuckle-dragging moron 😂😂😂.

06 Jul 2017 11:04:24
Rom was good for us - and I thank him for his service - but now it's onto pastures and challenges new for both him and Everton. I'm sure a suitable replacement will be found.

06 Jul 2017 11:04:40
Don't always agree with u ed002 but on this occasion well done, anyone who comes out with this statement of intent and the rest of that crap r doing my head in, it's pathetic, yea we sold a player for loads of money so let's spend it all right now to show we are back haha show who? We show we r back by beating teams and climbing the league not by buying 50m players.

06 Jul 2017 11:15:31
all that was getting said above was that the money needs to be used in getting in a top striker, if you sell your main influence of goals and don't replace with a similar yet bigger character you're not going to progress, ask the reds and spurs, bale never replaced and spent on handfuls of average signings, and same with the torres and suarez money from them lot across the park.

06 Jul 2017 11:25:52
He was always leaving.
It's a 50 million + profit.
Rooney on a free adds at least 10 mill to that figure.
I'd rather let him go for free than have anyone in the shirt that doesn't want to run through walls for us.
Get him gone and look to the future - which is bright blue.

06 Jul 2017 13:25:21
Ed 002 you mention everton knew he was going a year ago so was it all media rubbish when his agent said he was 99% ready to sign a new contract.

{Ed002's Note - I explained at the time he would be gone this summer. I would not listen to what Mino says and expect it to be all true.}

06 Jul 2017 19:58:29
Right there ed if mino told me it was raining outside I would have to go out and check ed with ROM all but gone I was wondering have an idea on who will replace him I know giroud has been linked with us and I think he would be an excellent sigining for us but don't see it happening as I not sure he wants out of arsenal and gray and king are not are not good enough to replace ROM in my opinion and as good as I think the Sandro signing is he will need some support upfront.

{Ed025's Note - dembele is still well in the mix duke..

giroud has been given no assurances on first team football at arsenal and with lacazette being they're number 1 striker next season and the world cup on the horizon believe me giroud is moving or losing his international spot as well as his club spot he has been given permission to seek a move as long as gunners get 20 mill for him koeman has spoken to giroud and its any ones guess whether he will move to us or back to france but it would be a stupid move to stay at arsenal this coming season.
