Just reading V V Dyke put in a transfer request. 50million they reckon. Are we interested since Koeman was his former manager.

{Ed025's Note - it would be nice to think so mowfee but chelsea and liverpool are way in front on him mate..

08 Aug 2017 00:30:42
40mill plus Williams, far better investment than that grossley over priced, Swansea midfilder, yes he my get and make a few goals, but, VVD, will stop a lot more keeping the back door shut.

JCW Gylfi will get us 10 goals a season, it's no use locking up a fine defence if you canst score, just keep drawing nil nil, may as well get both of them mate, Giroud too then that will suffice for a bit :)

Agree2 Disagree1

08 Aug 2017 07:48:59
Since we only spent 7 million (sarcasm) . Thank you Mr Lukaku. Dyke, Sigurdsson, and a striker. We then have tv money (I think) surely we could do it without spending much of Moshiris money.

If I got it all wrong on the money then apologies.

38 games 1 nil will do me.

Any eds know if he hold any interest in either De Bock of brugge or Duarte at espanyol? Think both were on Martinez radar at one poont but both play left and left sided CB.

{Ed025's Note - not as far as we are aware berkshire..

07 Aug 2017 21:21:34
I wonder if Koeman wanting a winger and striker could mean Giroud AND Welbeck as he can play wide as well? Just a thought.

Believable0 Unbelievable1

{Ed025's Note - they wont let both go john..

07 Aug 2017 21:55:48
Lucas Perez and Giroud would do for me, seems Arsenal are having a clearout I'll take Wenger's coat as well as its always been to big for him.

Since the premier league began 25 years ago, we have had the most red cards with 86. Big dunc got 8 of them, nearly 10%. What a legend. Hahaha.

Check out the latest quote from Tom Davies

"I enjoy playing in midfield mainly but, of course, I'm happy to play at full-back if I'm asked - it's just a privilege to be on the pitch playing for Everton. Anywhere the manager wants me to play, I'll do it. "

I love this kid, a true blue through and through.

Absolutely, and he is very good talking to the press, a credit to his parents. His pass to Sandro for the opening goal was sublime, it comes from a natural ability that can't be taught. A future English player and captain IMHO.

{Ed025's Note - a firm favourite of all the fans i think mike..

A friend of mine is friendly with Alan Whittle through coaching kids football teams and has known Tom for a few years now.
He hasn't got a bad word to say about young Tom, apparently he's mature for his age and so very humble and honest it's unbelievable. A very refreshing change in the current climate of young footballers having everything at a young age.

{Ed025's Note - very much so mate..

I think he has just about displaced Jags as my favorite player in the squad just love how much he appreciates the position he is in, certain other players should take a long hard look at his attitude.

Agree1 Disagree0

08 Aug 2017 08:55:38
I would hope he has known him a few years Rhapsody, as Alan is Tom's uncle.

Just seen Gary Rowett interview on sky with regards to Lookman.
I think it was mentioned on here but I can't believe how he was talking about if they decide to take lookman etc, Derby would be very very lucky to have a player like him on loan and besides I think he offers everton something we are lacking and that's pace with the ability to beat a man.

Believable5 Unbelievable0

07 Aug 2017 20:32:51
I know Paul. The cheek right. I posted on here saturday puzzled over the fact they are A. Deciding about whether or not to take him and B. Thinking they can just walk in and get him.

Unless of course we have offered Derby the chance. Then I'm puzzled they haven't snapped our hands off.

Agree1 Disagree0

08 Aug 2017 06:56:21
I would think they have been offered Lookman and are deciding if they want to take him, (which they would be mental if they don't want him) I very much doubt they think they can just take one of our players unless we have offered him.

Agree0 Disagree0

08 Aug 2017 12:07:30
As a Liverpool fan I often hop on other pages not to troll or cause trouble but genuine discussion and I cannot see why Everton would allow lookman to leave when he's one of the few players with pace that you guys have? Even if he doesn't suit the style RK wants to enforce this coming year you need a different outlet and pace scares teams.

Who's going to win them headers Lukaku didn't? Who's going to work the flanks like Lukaku didn't? Who is going to score those 24 solo goals Lukaku did? Listen Rom has gone and very few of them goals were of his own making so we shouldn't have a problem replacing them. We will have different styles of play and won't rely on one player and be one dimensional like we have been.

Would love him at the back or in a back three for us just can't see it happening though, too many of the so called big clubs will be in for him 😕 however if we managed to pull that off I think our defence will have taken another huge step forward! 👍.

07 Aug 2017 16:43:45
Guys let's give the new players a chance and not get on their backs. I can remember a young Howard Kendall taking a while to settle in, and it was a completely different game then without all the media pressure. Let's not make it worse. Get behind them NOT on them.

Just a thought after RK yesterday saying that we need a left CB/ FB. Think Williams could go back to Swansea and £45 mill for Glyfi.

Believable4 Unbelievable1

{Ed025's Note - i hope so mate..

07 Aug 2017 17:50:06
I would go for that. Can't help thinking Williams was a stop gap for Stones going. Does anyone know what the delay is with Gylfi. Surely they cannot be haggling over 2-5 mill.

Agree0 Disagree0

07 Aug 2017 18:19:57
Surprised we haven't gone in for Bruno Martins Indi, Stoke are looking like they are securing a £7.5 million deal, and he can play both LB and left CB.

07 Aug 2017 15:09:21
Hi Ed, don't suppose it's a possibility we loaned the Henry lad to anderlecht as a sweetener for Dendonker, seen a report his agent has apparently said he's after a new challenge? Heard anything of interest? Cheers.

I expect to see a lot more of Lookman this season. We bought him in January, but he's now had a pre season with us which is vitally important. His performance yesterday was just amazing.

What I like about him is if he's on the pitch you can guarantee he will take at least one shot at goal. He's good enough to create that extra yard to get his shot off.

The biggest losers from yesterday's match are Derby, as there is no chance of him going out on loan after a performance like that.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

07 Aug 2017 15:25:50
changed the game yesterday Ace, went with the misses and she was like "whos he, only looks ten" ha ha, he needs to play and I think Koeman will put him in, no chance on loan to anyone.

Agree1 Disagree0

07 Aug 2017 18:05:02
Haha, my misses said he looks like the guy off different strokes. That was when he scored against City.

07 Aug 2017 09:01:13
Ed I put a genuine post up twice and you don't post it and you put up people's posts about a 1 off kit what's all that about, what's going on with lookman.

{Ed025's Note - im not the only ed who does everton dunc and i have not seen any of your posts mate, i cant see lookman going anywhere mate he is one of the few with genuine pace in the team.

I really find Daniel Levy leaves a bitter taste in my mouth .
It is obvious what his game is re Barclay .
Leave it till last day and hope we panic into letting Barclay go on the cheap.
We already dropped the price to attract buyers but as far as we are being told no interest, although I am sure there is .
I know it's not my money but I would rather keep him ( silly lad that he is ) than sell him to Levy who always seems to be a thorn in our side .

I wouldn't sell to spurs anyway we have already sold 1 player to one of our rivals I don't want to strengthen another one.

07 Aug 2017 13:54:02
He would weaken them not strengthen them, Barclay is a no mark and we are asking to much for him, let's just get rid of him.

Agree0 Disagree1

07 Aug 2017 10:27:56
I said this a few weeks ago as a joke get Costa. But now I think we should go for him his record speaks for himself. OK he's temperamental but RK would sort that 55 mill a steal for a 20 plus striker who needs game time for the World bup.

Believable6 Unbelievable0

07 Aug 2017 12:07:18
He is a top top player but he'd have to be desperate to leave Chelsea for a move to happen. I see him going to China before coming to us. Probably still off to Atletico despite what's been said today.

Agree0 Disagree1

07 Aug 2017 14:52:55
I think the China transfer window is closed.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - It is.}

07 Aug 2017 16:41:34
Ed can we have your 2 cents? I think a deal is a bit of a fantasy but someone seems to disagree with me. What's your take? .

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Everton has shown no interest in Costa and why on earth would bhe move to Everton?}

07 Aug 2017 17:49:00
Even if we did a deal for half the season it would be better than what we have. Costa is a nightmare for defenders, and would certainly provide plenty of entertainment for the fans.

Agree1 Disagree0

07 Aug 2017 10:26:20
Pickford looked the part no doubt about that. Distribution looks effortless but so god damn accurate. If he replicates the same sort of performance s over the course of the season his price would be a snip. Very promising indeed. Sqaud looked much better yesterday.

Believable3 Unbelievable0

07 Aug 2017 09:49:59
Why is everyone moaning about us lacking pace look at spurs what pace do they have kane no ericksen no Ali no. They play a quick passing game which opens teams up and I think this is what Koemans looking to do to with the likes of Rooney klaasen and sigurdson which works for me as if these 3 click and Sandto up top with his movement they could tear teams apart at will?

Believable2 Unbelievable0

07 Aug 2017 09:46:29
If you were in any doubt of the ambition of this manager and board then Koemans words yesterday should ease those fears.

He is absolutely determined to get the best possible squad for next season and is pushing everyone at the club to make it happen.

He reminds me of Royle and Kendall and a million miles away from the delusional Martinez and dour and negative Moyes.

We WILL get better and we WILL compete. Trust this guy and these players because if we join them from the stands only success will follow.
