Ignoring all the rumours about Tim leaving, if Gana leaves as expected and we bring Hayden Hackney, these are exciting times for our midfield. Rotating Tim, Rohl, HH and Garner could be a very strong midfield for years to come.

Agree, mate, some other new recruits as well.

As we all know, my fellow Evertonians, what we get on transfer speculation is 2nd or sometimes 3rdhand at best at this time of year and any transfer negotiations are pretty much like a game of poker and should be treated with skeptism but if the current reporting of Everton's opening offer to Middlesbrough for Hayden Hackney are to be believed, 10 million for arguably the Championship best player is rather foolhardy to say the least of course we are not in the know and it could all be just BS but this is the time to tread carefully but not he absolutely ridiculous and dare I say it insulting with those in my humble opinion low ball offers but I am sure some other of my fellow Evertonians will hold different opinions.

None of us mere mortals will likely have any idea about what is being done behind closed doors, save for old Ed001 who would have known.
Line up the team and 8 weeks and let's go.

It's all part of the media game, isn't it? We know Boro won't accept that. They'll have asked for silly money and we'll meet somewhere in the middle.

See Spurs have signed Andy Robinson, experienced defender, 32, on a free. My brother in law is well chuffed. Wonder if we had signed him what the comments would have been.

Would never have happened.
I do find it a bit ironic though that they hate Trent for going to Real Madrid (for £8m) and Konate going to Real Madrid for free, but love Robertson for going to another Premier League on a free.

{Ed001's Note - Robertson wasn't offered a contract, so never rejected anything, whereas the other 2 kept stalling negotiations, that is why some hate them. Personally, I don't see it as a reason to hate anyone, but there you go.}

I'm amazed Robertson wasn't offered a new contract tbh Ed, I know he's not as quick as he used to be but still think he's a solid backup, always in shape too so could probably play until he's 35.

{Ed001's Note - his legs were gone 2 years ago and he was paid very highly, too much for a back up.}

Can have Mykolenko if you want mate.

FFS Hasn't Moyes got the balls to tell Pickford and Tarkoswski that neither of them are good enough to captain the team. Tarkowski is constantly getting into trouble with ridiculous tackles when caught with or without the ball, and Pickford's concentration is limited at best. Constantly ranting and gesticulating to team mates. The opposition must be made up. The bickering that goes on amongst our back four.
Garner is best just doing what he does without other distractions, so I don't know who else ganna if he stays. But as a former poster said there should be 11 captains on the pitch because the amount of times the armband gets passed about in games now is riduculous. He comes on, gets the armband, then somebody else comes on and the armband is passed again. So as I stated I have no idea who should have it.

I know that there are other positions that need to be filled, but I really wouldn't like to trust Moyes with signing another striker.
I really wanted Franculino Dju last summer when he was available for about £15m, but instead we wasted £27.5m on a bag of ****.
The current names in the frame appear to be Jesus and Delap and to be honest neither fill me with confidence.
Our 2 strikers aren't good enough and need to go, but I have a feeling and hope that I am wrong, that Moyes will keep Barry. If that is the case then we will still need 2 strikers.
I would still love to get Dju, but our failure to get into Europe will go against us and his price will have doubled also. An experienced striker would also be useful and I gather that we tried to get Lukaku in January. I would certainly take him on a 2 year contract as if he could stay fit he still knows where the net is. He is also rumoured to be available for about £12m. Conte has just left the club and it has been reported that the owners want De Bruyne and Lukaku gone.

I am with you on Dju Shropshire. He would offer us something completely different up there as he can actually play football.
You are spot on. I think we missed the boat on him last summer and then he suffered the serious-ish injury in winter.
Can see someone like Lille or Benfica going for him. They always seem to get the lads in from the lesser leagues that are about to explode and then sell them on for a ridiculous profit.
Isn't Lukaku on ridiculous wages?

He spent the season on the training table. Send him to MLS.

He will be on a decent wage BN, but I think that he's desperate to have another crack at the Premier League and he did play his best football in this league with us, so may feel that he has unfinished business.
The other advantage is that TFG will know all about his demands, having had him at Roma. Definitely think he is worth a punt.
