alcaraz 2 year deal on a free
By the end of the week?
BlueHaze
Really? We are signing a shocking defender from a regelated club?
Doesnt this feel you with optimism. NOT! what a joke. He is awful and his age isn't even on his side!

With all the moaning about finding a billionaire I thought I add my two bob
We don't need a billionaire just someone who can clear the debts and squeeze some more out of the sponsors if we did that with the new tv money we'd been on a 30-40m profit a year easily enough for transfers and start saving for a stadium
COYB
Quinny
If some one was to come in and clear the debt then they would need to be a billionaire, who else would just pay off 40+ million, and let's not forget the price to buy the club, give your head a shake and wake up!
U should give it a shot quiny.
A magician then?
You wouldn't need to be a billionaire 120m to buy the club 40m to clear debt 160m total 40m a year profit take 10m a year out investment cleared in 16 years plus club probably worth twice what you paid for it by just staying in the premier league and making money
So who with 160 million is going to put it all into a club? And then there's nothing saying you will never be relegated and lose all your money, and what about new stadium etc? You talking about them people that win the lottery and now have a pound in the bank, like I said give your head a shake, no one is that stupid.
If the Tv money is what is making us more profit, everyone has access to that in the PL. so the ability to spend that is only keeping us up with other clubs who have benefited from the tv funds. Without additional spending on top of the tv revenue, we would continually fall down the league.
BTW someone who can spend 140 on a football club (ie a hobby) must be a billionaire.

Hi eds any news on possible transfer targets from spain, as I heard there was a big one coming in. blue billy
General consensus is that it's either soldado of negredo, but I can't imagine we'll get close to either. We'll probably get someone like Kone or Long.
11 Jun 2013 23:06:09
Martinez. First signing Alcaraz by the end of the week
Why the heck do we want alcaraz he is no better than what we have got but hey ho free transfer

rumour that everton have tabled 9 million bid in for victor moses
11 Jun 2013 18:51:30
Heard we have had the go - ahead to sign Scott Sinclair now city have completed signing of navas
Thoughts
Would not be surprised, especially on a loan to buy.
Depends on the price but adds to the squad and a different type of player to what we have
Where would he play though probably just a squad player

Is there anything on the Naismith to Norwich rumours and if so what fee?
Quinny {Ed025's Note - i have heard nothing mate..
Disappointing. Anyone think he'll come good I know one of the eds did
Quinny
The best way to get the best out of a player is play him in his natural position not out of position Naismith gets a hard time on here but maybe under Martinez he will get a better chance and played in his right position. I said it many many times about Coleman when he was playing on the wing if we play him at right back we will get the best out of him was I wrong on that 1?
He won't come good. With players like Vic, you could see something there, they just needn't a few changes and a bit more development. Naismith has nothing. No ability in any regard. He must go.
11 Jun 2013 18:15:16
Nothing sounds a fair deal to me!
Think he might just well come good if he can get a chance in his best position and a good run of games
I for one hope so Quinny!
Stu
Played well against chelsea in his natural role
11 Jun 2013 21:53:52
Naismith has a bit of pace and incredible work ethic and adds a bit of bite on the wings and is willing to put in a tackle he also gets into some great positions (norwich, liverpool, aek athens etc. ) Should be used off the front man not on the wing
Stef the blue has hit the nail on the head there. Play the lad just off the striker and he'll look like a different player. He had a great partnership with Jelavic at rangers so maybe the new manager will give him a run in that position. A lot of blues fans are judging him on only one season which is bit unfair. Said it on here before now, he has had two really bad injuries prior to joining, this is the season where we will discover if he can hack it in England.
12 Jun 2013 13:34:05
The difference is Coleman has talent. naismith is a headless chicken
Ray
Playing the lad off the striker won't mean he has a better first touch, ability or awareness, I sit in the upper bullens and it was a running joke bringing him on last year the guy is awful, he looks petrified when he comes on and goes hiding because he knows himself he ain't good enough.
people talking about his injuries need to realise he's been fit all season now, it took jack Wilshire 2 weeks to start playing well after a career threating year and half out so i'd think after 12months he'd be near his best

Finch Farm sold to Liverpool Council for 12million
Yep it's true.
Actually good for us because the Council will make the rates lower for as than they were with the previous owners.
New pitch being put in too, so that's good news.
AussieBlue
Can we swap with them for Naismith?
Didnt even think we owned it - thought it had been sold and leased back?
Liverpool City Council have not bought Finch Farm off Everton, they have bought it off a private firm and will make a tidy profit off the club.
We didn't own it, it was leased from a private company. Now the council own it and should give us better terms. we were paying approx. 1.5 mil a year. Now the council have said they have a 25 year mortgage as we have a 40 year lease they don't expect to make any profit until they own it in 25 years time, when they will get a to keep all the rent. Good business for both of us actually, they council will make money to put back into Liverpool and we will get cheaper rent.
We don't own it, the owners sold it. It just means cheaper rates potentially for us. Nothing that exciting
Svenny
Cant believe that, its full of potholes, and the council can't afford to fill them in

martinez first 3 signings diame mcarthy de guzman
Totally agree for Diame to replace Felli. McCarthy is good future. De Guzman losed the ball too much even he play pretty football but our football must play safe. Further more I wonder we trust Distin who has very bad speed. I propose Hector Moreno.
We're not going to spend our entire budget on cms
Distin, is still one of the faster members of our squad, and also one of the faster centre backs in the league!
TJ
Distin has 'very bad speed'? He's probably the quickest defender in the league.
Cant see us signing 3 centre mids matey maybe 1 or 2 if fellaini leaves. Would take McCarthy and Diame for sure. If we can get £24m for fellaini we would be able to get Diame £3.5m release clause and McCarthy for circa £7-£8m would leave us a fair wack for new winger and forward plus funds already available which people are saying around £15-£20m. What do you reckon Ed?
Cheeks {Ed025's Note - i think your right cheeks...
Didn't distin outpace Walcott this season he's rapid
11 Jun 2013 17:17:34
'Distin has very bad speed' that has to be the most stupid thing I've ever heard let's go through the list shall we.
First game of the season outpaced valencia
Outpaced both shotten and cameron jerome vs stoke this season
Outpaced sturridge and downing at anfield
Kept up with suarez whilst injured (remember suarez stomped him)
Outpaced and outmuscled both kone home and away
Outpaced lukaku twice at goodison
Kept up with theo walcott at the emirates
Outpaced tevez at goodison
Kept torres quiet at goodison
He is still fast and there is no faster centre back in the league I know you will say kaboul or koscielny but look at this koscielny was at fault vs chelsea when torres who has lost his pace sprinted past him and kaboul failed to keep up with stephen ireland last year or the year before
Keep Fellaini all day long! He's better than every player you've mentioned. Wtf does everyone want to get rid of him? Keep Fellaini and don't buy half of your old team please Martinez, we are better than that.
Dog Puke Peter
Distin is are fastest player!
Shame he couldn't use his 'rapid pace' to catch up with suarez in the semi final! useless sell him!

Fantastic player. Not going to happen.

norwich after naismith martinez wants him to stay
Link? please be true!
I will drive him there myself if its true!
Norwich wanting how much to take him?
Let's him go with a bottle of champagne.
I hate criticising our players, but he was awful last season, surely Martinez would take any cash offer for him, he was free we took a chance, let's sell if anyone is stupid enough to buy him.
11 Jun 2013 13:27:51
We must have a spare few quid: (DM Online)
Everton are set to install a brand new, state-of-the-art playing surface, which has been described as the 'Rolls-Royce of pitches'.
Having appointed Roberto Martinez as manager last week, the Toffees are now improving the quality of the Goodison Park turf and hope it will aid the Spanish boss' attacking, passing style of play for which he is known. The system will be the same type used in recent World Cup and Champions League finals and will be one of the best in the country.
The pitch was started weeks ago, well before martinez was put in charge
The pitch is the same as Man United are getting only two of this type this season and has been planned over 6 months ago
Pretty shocked people are tagging this as unbelievable, its a club statement!
Obviously some users of the site aren't the sharpest tools I the box!
My Uncle works at the ground he posted a picture to of the pitch all dug up, apparently currently only goodison and wembley have it!
I'm pretty sure some users of this site aren't the sharpest tools in the box, but maybe they're clicking 'unbelievable' in response to the first line and the fact it's sourced from the DM?
12 Jun 2013 10:16:23
Looks good for us! finally upgrading our stadium!
11 Jun 2013 12:02:02
Is Martinez still after McGeady ed? {Ed025's Note - i never knew he was mike!..
It was in the echo last week, reports saying we are going to bid £4m. {Ed025's Note - just paper talk at the moment mike..
Hope not
IMO the McGeady and Moses links are just lazy journalism they have seen that he almost signed McGeady in January so just assume he will be after him at Everton. And obviously Moses played for RM before so its easy to make that link. It'll be N'Zogbia and Valencia next!
11 Jun 2013 20:17:20
McGeadys agent talking rubbish I suspect and hope
11 Jun 2013 11:04:58
Everton could be after
Mcmanaman
Moses
Bent
Anybody got any other suggestion or insight? Ed?
xDWJ
I'd take Bent if we can get him for around 4 mil. like to see us take Diame as well
I think Bent would be a great signing, I don't understand why everyone thinks he's crap. He's scored goals wherever he's been and has a goal average of 0. 42 goals per game. the same as Hernandez, Tevez, Berbatov and only a fraction less than Wayne Rooney. I'd take that!.
I totally agree with regards to bent if we could get him on a reasonable fee and reasonable wages the he would be a superb signing he score goals as simple as that.
This is like saying Everton could be after arsenal, Aston villa and Chelsea alphabetically.
Mcmanaman is definately on the radar. He was before martinez come, and I think his arrival has increased that. Bent may be a potenial signing but only for a very low fee, such as half a million. I've heard nothing on Moses. Mcmanaman would be a good signing, Bent, a decent sqaud player, but we would still need a prolific goal scorer. Bent, would give Vellios the chance to go out on loan. I don't think Moses deal would happen, and to be honest I wouldn't want it to happen.

Hi folks just heard through a manc mate of mine that Manchester United are looking at leroy fer. Blue billy
Typical of us, we are the chief scouts for the rest of the league. We unearth hidden talent for everyone else!
And?. i'm sure there is a reason why they are?. who cares.
Leroy Fer is hardly hidden talent - certainly not after his recent U-21 performances and he was already relatively well known before our interest earlier this year.
Please get over this ludicrous idea that Everton are the only club that knows about certain players. There is very little "hidden talent" these days given the extensive scouting networks used by clubs. That mean that pretty much every club knows about pretty much every player around the world. Instead, it's a case of which club actually takes the plunge by investing the money and signing a player that looks talented - rather than just being "interested" in them.
Belgian-Bunn
And considering moyes wanted him at everton and still likes him now
I have a Dutch mate who follows footy and he says he ain't that great - ok to good, but not great - so if moyes wants to fill his team with sub top bargains then good luck to him -
Ps he was only a fellaini fall back for us - if we keep fellaini we won't buy him - a top class striker is our first priority as we basically came 6th last time without a striker - so the rest of the team must be very strong
I only moyes did not scupper deal in jan because he knew he was going to utd and wanted him there, that would be upsetting.
Explains why moyes pulled out of the deal in January the real time when he got the nod for Fergies job. This is especially as he even went on to say that he pulled the plug and all that Bill was still prepared to fund the deal.
Think we all realise now moyes was working on other deals in january, for next season, just not with the blues.
11 Jun 2013 08:43:47
Ed, does this Moses story have legs? Not seen it anywhere bar this site.
Paul1878 {Ed025's Note - i have seen it on a couple of sites paul, including news now everton, i think there is interest mate, but the price will dictate how far it goes..
Any chance of a loan {Ed025's Note - no mate..im skint.. :)
Ha ha nice one ED025 lol
10 Jun 2013 23:14:11
ED what do you reckon the chances are of getting Eduardo Salvio, could be a good signing as Mirallas could go into the middle {Ed025's Note - all speculation mate..
