My ideal January signings;
Nikica Jelavic-6/7m
Lewis Dunk-2/3m? Maybe 4?
Junior Hoilett-5/6m

Am from Brighton and watched cup game against toon on saturday as a toffee I was keen to look at Lewis Dunk. I personally would not take him he is not ready yet he struggled against Leon Best let alone if Ba was playing maybe in a few years yes but not now

29 Jan 2012 22:59:48

Heard it might b a new goal keeper.... Haha

Midfielder ? striker ,

I haven't seen much of jelavic but Rangers fans seem to love him. 30 goals in 45 games for Rangers. I think it would be a good signing

He's a great player but i would prefer someone more pacey

I haved lived in glasgow for 20 years, I have seen players come and go in the spl, I have seen Jelavic play week in and week out as far as I am concerned he would not be better than we already have he lacks pace and is a lazy donkey and to be honest our reserve strikers could easily score the same amount of goals in the SPL eg we loaned Jutkiewizc to motherwell and he got rave reviews up here, what did we do get rid of jim coz he wasn't good enough for us...... if I were to advise of any striker i the SPL it would probably be Hooper of Celtic but even then that would be a wildcard, there has been no sriker since the likes of Henrik Larson that i believe could cut it in the PL.......

Dont listen to this plonker, just another celtic fan talkin s**t. Jelavic is the best player in the spl, no doubt. He'd be a great addition to your squad!

Jay
Glasgow

Jelavic is not the way to go, not unless u want a penalty taker as that's where most of his goals have come from, he'd also be a liability as he is a diver, & takes cheating to another level. & with the high level of refereeing in the PL (compared to the SPL), Everton would be a man down regularly. Jelavic also spits the dummy if things aren't going his way, he refused to do training on fri, tho the Gers tried to cover it up with an illness story. {Ed025's Note - them grapes in scotland...taste really sour!..

While Jelavic isn't "world class" he does know the way to goal. Yeah most of his goals have come from penalties but I think he is the type of player Everton needs. Build up a strong enough squad and take it from there! Doyle IMO would be a FAR better player for Everton, has proven track record at an EPL club too but Everton just don't seem to be able to compete with the big spenders in the EPL. Put it this way Jelavic can't be half as bad as that lump of wood Carroll and at a tenth of the price. MarkyBhoy - Celtic fan

The 4th response is some silly little boy with you got it sour grapes. Im a Gers fan and i will confirm Jelavic most likely the best player in the SPL and will do a job for you. He has been poor for us for last 4 months or so but he still scores goals. Yes hooper has the pace but he doesnt have the physical build from the PL he is better suited to SPL. But if a target man is what you want hes your man. Its just not our style as proved on Saturday (best we have played since 1st old firm) without him. Hopefully with this move both teams will get the benefit.

Stephen whitaker is rangers penalty taker, jelavic as scored 5 penaltys for rangers

29 Jan 2012 22:31:32
its on sky sport we put a bid in 4 jelavic be great news

No it isn't great news - he looks poor every time I see him on Sky.

29 Jan 2012 22:26:15
ed anyomre players who do u think we will get

toffee haz {Ed025's Note - we have a few irons in the fire haz...but it would be unfair of me to just reel off some names mate..

Are we talking to anyone else apart from Jelavic,Ed? No names obviously dont want the RS knowing.
Toffeeboy {Ed025's Note - in a word...yes..

29 Jan 2012 22:22:20
Do u think we will sign some1 tomra edd ? {Ed025's Note - yes..

How certain r u. And wa position edd ? {Ed025's Note - that would be like opening your christmas presents...in november...it will spoil the surprise

But u always get a little hint on what ur getting. Come on edd us everton fans av waited long enough. If uno who is signin r u happy with who it is. Can u give us a clue of any type :-))) {Ed025's Note - its only what i have been told mate....but happy....yes

29 Jan 2012 22:08:14
has someone bought our club ed? if so who? {Ed025's Note - very premature im afraid mate..

29 Jan 2012 21:51:16
I,m a Liverpool fan and all this jelavic talk is rubbish. Everybody has been linked with him, including Liverpool. Don't think you'll get him. Bobby {Ed025's Note - you mean you hope bobby!!!....AND YOU CALL US BITTER!!

Bobby is a loser

Well it's confirmed kid, Fee been agreed between clubs so................

Well sorry to inform you but the deal is done,signed,sealed and delivered.anyway get off the page.

Hi, Im a liverpool fan and like reading everton rumours cos I have no life and am a bit of a bell end.

Go away to your own rumours page you whopper

Degsybluenose

Love tha comment ^^^... any news on jelovic. how do uno fee is agreed !

Aye mate I no its hard to take that u bought a donkey in carroll for £35 million ( I'm in tears laughing by the way laughing) it looks like we will get a decent player and it's killing u lot. All I say is keep kenny, any other manager would be hated or sacked.

Jc

Well in ed

The jellyman was linked with everyone including R S but they bought a donkey 4 35 mil instead. thgfest

Bit gutted we missed out on henderson....

then i seen him play

shocking!!

29 Jan 2012 21:19:33
its weird because on the yahoo sport page it says no bid has been made for jelavic yet just interest and rangers won't sell him for under the valuation which is thought to be in the region of 8m
andy

According to sky sports transfer centre a bid has been made.......grbefc

29 Jan 2012 20:25:08
Talk is rife in Scotland jelavic is on his way gone on strike to get move rangers keepin quiet so get good price ste 44

And talks not "rife" in scotland lol. Every Gers fan knows hes off. If Everton, CSKA, Fernabache or westham/brom are willing to pay what they ask he will go to the highest bidder

29 Jan 2012 20:24:07
Everton have had a £6m bid for Nikica Jelavic accepted, £3.5m up front with the rest in installments (could rise to £7.5m on future success)

29 Jan 2012 20:01:37
I would be happy very similar to rund van nistaroy, put the ball on his feet in the box and it goes in simple as that good job moyesy happy with that, I have also heard from a source, Everton will offer Pienaar a loan deal till end of season based on us paying 30% of his wages, and a centre defender from Lens but I dont know his name just said discussions going on.

I can also comfirm talks between americian reps at goodison park on the 27th of january.

How are you confirming these talks......

And you are ?

Deal for donavan, or the big prize, a take over ?

The release of funds would surely have to be sanctioned by any bidders for the club, maybe the takeover is very close.

29 Jan 2012 19:46:17
if we do sign jelavic then we must get behind him, come on he cant be worse than anichebe and he will score more goals than saha and denis so lets give him a chance

29 Jan 2012 19:37:48
Darrell King, sports editor of the Glasgow Evening Times, on the radio just then said he expects Nikica Jelavić to leave Rangers and that Everton are front runners

29 Jan 2012 19:22:30
i know there is a lot of opinions on jelavic, but at the end of the day when he puts that blue shirt on we must give him a chance

If, he puts the Blue shirt on.

Hang on we haven't signed him...have we?

29 Jan 2012 18:53:05
Jelevic offer accepted having medical tomorrow

Where's your source that the bid was accepted and he will be having a medical tomorrow?

Someone on twitter set up an account an said it was accepted. Since then the account has been deleted an nothin else has been heard. Make of it what u will

29 Jan 2012 18:43:45
why don't we get Jermaine Beckford back can't understand why we got rid of him any one know why we did

Erm because he was crap and we got 4mil for him??? that a clue? {Ed025's Note - i actually thought becks was ok...he was only used sparingly by moyes, and his goal tally was above average..

Bily liar got shut to balance his credit card overdraft,fact....b.t.a.p

Good player wasnt gave a chance

It was his Attitude

Yes, he was an oxygen thief who has found his level in the Championship and we got good money for him....Simples!

Because we were offered £4.5M for a player that cost us nothing and hadnt really cemented his place in the team. Was good business I think.

29 Jan 2012 18:32:04
Why don't we hang on till Tuesday night and sign Tevez on loan till end of season city will want him out of dressing room and he'll be in shop window with us creative experienced international goalscorer and he's Argentinian too
AndyC

You must live in la la land

29 Jan 2012 18:28:39
kieth wyness on twitter saying anyone who trys to buy a player off rangers given their current financial state will get a bargain!

Aye a 9m bargain im a gers fan And i nope he goes we Need the spirit

LiviBear

29 Jan 2012 17:57:26
Alan Smith now at MK Dons, so much potential wasted, should of came to us when Moyes offered the 7 million lad and I bet you wouldnt have been at MK Dons now, still on 62k per week though withMK Dons paying two grand of that, he followed the money and look where he ended up at 29 years of age, whopper

Where did it all go wrong for him? England caps and he played for Leeds in the champions league, Man Utd and Newcastle and now he's semi-retired on 62k per week.

Why does Moysey not play a reg Striker.... All the ones who left score regularly becuase they get full games. Yak/Beckford..
They never got full matches at Everton.
Scratchy ass scored on Fri he should be getting a reg game.

29 Jan 2012 17:44:02
Sorry this clown Alan Parker Skysports on twitter is fake, bid has not been accepted.
Why do weirdo's do fake profiles on twitter !
BAFFLES ME

29 Jan 2012 17:31:59
Its more than 4/5 million. West ham had a 7 mill offer turned away last week {Ed007's Note - No they didn't.}

As a rangers fan our chairman has valued jelavic at 10m. my guess is that 8m+ may persuade him otherwise!

Ed they did mate it was 7 mil, maybe not all at once but it was 7 mill! {Ed001's Note - and you know this because Sky reported it I bet, right? You don't think it could be anything to do with his agent or Rangers trying to stir up some interest then? Because it was complete lies about a 7m offer from Liverpool in the summer, so I am not convinced about West Ham, who have no money, making a 7m bid now.}

Well the bid was declared to the press association and every place that could have reported it did. Why wouldnt u believe it?

29 Jan 2012 17:24:43
Rangers fan here. Jelavic is a very good player. He is very technically good. He has a knack for finishing. Remember he is consistently in the Croatian national team.


BiliyBear

I too are a rangers fan and i disagree with my fellow bluenose. at rangers he misses a lot of easy chances, has a poor first touch and lacks in pace. the head goes down and he sulks a lot if he gets no service. personally i don't believe he is a player who can improve everton's frontline.

2 goals in 17 international apparences does not make him a regular! But if he builds it they will come!
Bobby Blue

29 Jan 2012 17:18:49
If we sign this clown from Rangers I won't be back at Goodison.I can't believe we are stooping this low.He is a championship player at best.If he is going to be our main striker we find out what the championship is like.

Disgusted Toffee

Some people are never happy

Lmao do you even know who he is? International from croatia, not some non league you mug

I'll not be stopping going to matches but the OP has a point,this guys stats are rotten,My cousin up there is Rangers daft and he's always raving aboit him but he is nothing special to watch epl defenders will mark him out of games no problem.

I am a Rangers fan and you are a fann&, he is better than any striker that you have by a mile. He is not ultra quick but that is only fault.

Cant see this were are we getting the cash from but if it does give the lad a chance got to be better than what we have always seems to be in the right place to score

Rubbish because he has no pace.. dennis bergkamp..alan shearer...ruud van nistelrooy all must be rubbish as none of these had pace!! Turn it in will ya!
SpekeBlue

He is a quality player

People said that about Beckford last season, he turned out to be our top goalscorer! If we sign any player we should always give them a chance!

I'm sure u said the same clown remark when arteta was linked with u.

Jelavic is a great player and we need a striker so shut up and stop moaning!

It would be wrong to suggest Jelavic is a top notch striker but Everton will be getting a very good player if the deal goes through. He will score his fair share and is a terrific link up forward if he gets support.

He ain't that slow either!

Exactly.....dammed if they dont sign dammed if they do.

29 Jan 2012 16:24:14
on sky sports transfer news now;

Sky Sports sources understand Everton have made an official offer for Rangers striker Nikica Jelavic. More on skysports.com shortly.
....byn

They rejected 7M from West Ham so cnt see them accepting £20 from us! dnt rate him anyway, any1 can score in Scotland!
MickeyBlue

Reading it now

You would think it would have to be more than the 7 million west ham bid ....thought we were skint... pc

Hope its a goer..

Seen that too mate

No pace no ability no thanks anther andy carrol

I really hope not. Need a quick sklllful striker not a striker slow of pace and plays back to goal.need pace in are attacks

Its true, but wtf lol where we get this money, i would be happy with this! maybe get a loan as well but i doubt it if we get the jelly man

Mediocre player in a s**t league, not value for money either.

We need a striker that scores goals ! some of the best strikers ever have been slow, van persie! van nistory alan sheara why do you need pace if you a goal scorer so what !

Hope arry dodgey gezza comes in and signs him first like he normally does

29 Jan 2012 16:21:16
sky report offer for jokavic

I thought we where after nadal.

He'd be a fantastic signing, would win us Wimbledon in no time!.

Did u mean jelavic

I know it's a spelling mistake, but still had a little giggle as considering all the calamities of the current board I wouldnt be surprised me if billy the liar made a bid for the tennis player by mistake!!

Bilyaletdinov has finally completed his
Move to Spartak Moscow. Source: SSN.

ToffeeDave.

Good luck billy lad the prem was just a little to much for you mate..we just need rid of saha now and get 1 or 2 players in who will work hard for us,something we didnt get from billy and defo saha. Terry blue

Yeah good luck Billy la shame didn't work out.

29 Jan 2012 13:52:26
Everton are going to sign Kevin Doyle and Kris Boyd. Hugo Rodallega is still a possibility.

ToffeeDave.

Probably not the worst player to sign, but regardless of our lack of money why are we targeting a player who can't get in to the wolves team and a player who can't get a team at all!

That would do for me Dave.

Don't like this - none of them are prolific scorers or particularly good footballers. We need players to improve the squad, not just extra bodies !

I do agree that they're not the best players but they're probably the best we can hope
For with our measley budget.

ToffeeDave.

29 Jan 2012 12:53:30
Doyle wont be coming. McCarthy wont let him leave til the summer. D

29 Jan 2012 11:51:20
soccervoice reporting we are looking to sign rodellaga from wigan and jay rodriguiz from burnley both for around 4m each, also sky sports saying we are lining up a shock move for kevin doyle

Why have people disagreed, cant you read, just google what has been sadi and you will see it

Not having a go at people for posting rumours, but does anyone else think that Doyle is not good enough? {Ed025's Note - i think he is a good player..

What player(s) are we likely to get then ed?..... Kav {Ed025's Note - wait till tomorrow kav..

So ed do uno suttin we dnt :-)))) jimmy ? {Ed025's Note - i expect at least 1 tomorrow jimmy..

Jay Rodriguez would be a good edition young and shows real potential we could get more molars out of him than the others but then again he doesn't have experience of playing in the premier league

Cud this be jelovic ed.? I haven't really followed this guy is he any good ? Jimmy {Ed025's Note - the jellyfish is very good imo...i think he is very well suited to the EPL jimmy, he is big, strong and very physical..

29 Jan 2012 11:19:38
posted it at the very start of january now its on skysports to, everton will sign kevin doyle before the deadline, kris boyd on a free, manolas for pennies, elia has been looked at on loan, as has quaresma however cerci is the most likely although he really isnt keen on leaving italy, hes a typical rome born italian, hates the whole world and thinks italy is gods gift to man, silva from sporting wont sign however borja valero is a serious possibility from villareal

Isn't Valero the one that injured Coleman in pre season, although he does look a alrite player very commited.

29 Jan 2012 08:05:26
wba wolves everton norwich wait for snodgrass

Not good enought

Would rather have greengrass
ste blue, see the link ed all in heartbeat. cos my heart will miss a beat if we sign any 1 {Ed025's Note - your heart is going to miss a beat then ste..

29 Jan 2012 08:03:27
mallorca chase heitinga

Moyes should be sacked if he does that

Would it be that bad if it gave more money to go into the other areas that is more needed , bsm

I thought Real Madrid , Barcelona and all Europes big teams were after him, so he claims. It would be ironic if he went there and if he goes good riddance as in my opinion i don't believe he has the Everton cause at heart. As for any incomings i hope we get a good striker and creative midfielder. COYB

Great news
