Negero rumours in 3 papers now might be some true to this

Over 9 mil is quite expensive for a player who is nearly 28 though, didn't elstone say they want players with resale value aka future potential. .where is the future potential unless we have more money? if so ILL TAKE HIM! tv all day tomorrow! MGblueFAN

His future value will be measured in goals

I HAVE IT ON GOOD AUTHORITY THAT LEROY FER'S KNEE WAS IN A BAD STATE. CANNOT BLAME THE EFC STAFF FOR STOPPING THIS DEAL. I JUST HOPE MOYES HAS MADE CONTINGENCY PLANS ????

Two great assists from Hope Akpan to set up the Reading goals tonight. Decent young prospect and I struggle to understand why we let him go. (Wavertree Blue)

Is good authority every paper and news website in england everyone knows, the twente chairman refusede to play 'games' with everton

Good authority is knowing someone that knows one of the physios at evertons training complex

30 Jan 2013 22:22:17
If Leroy Fer was that good Moyes would of snapped him up anyway. Onwards and upwards

George Efc

30 Jan 2013 21:08:29
Glenn Murray of Palace to Everton for 2.5million

30 Jan 2013 19:33:45
Just been on radio the news is we going for attacking midfielder and another player in a diff position, did anyone else hear it?

30 Jan 2013 19:36:17
What radio channel mate ?

It was just graham sharpe saying what he thinks we need

Was it Doris Stokes?

Dave M

Yeah, heard that on , Graham Beacroft.

30 Jan 2013 18:25:52
moyes to go for diame and ofoe and ben yedder

Would settle for that coyb

30 Jan 2013 18:15:47
Qpr at it agen ther on the verge ov signin couppoe marvellous

Teflon Harry on the verge of bankrupting another club again, signing whoever he can, for whatever they want. You would hope that one day the media would start to ask questions of Rednap instead of kissing his arse at every opportunity

Anyway, If this guy (or any young player with promise) joins a team at the bottom of league and facing relegation, then they've done it for the money. Are these the kind of players you would want at our club, a player whose head would be turned at the very mention of a better contract elsewhere.

It's all b******* anyway, he'll be a blue by 11 p.m tomorrow. Happydays!

30 Jan 2013 17:56:48
ofoe, cahill, straqs - all loans to freshing up the squad

ofoe will be used as a box-to-box midfielder
cahill.. do I really need to say more?
straqs loves everton, gives 110 per cent, and is what we need in my opinion! COYB

I would rather us not bother rather than bring in that lot.

Stop living in the past.

Need a striker to score not just love the club be real, cahill finished, great servant loved him but not gud enough, straqs not upto it. coyb

Ofoe yes the other 2 a backward step

Worse rumor ever.

30 Jan 2013 22:04:00
Id love to see straq back and well cahill is a true blue and would like him to say a proper goobye and leave on a high!!
Maca the blue {Ed025's Note - that ship has well sailed maca..

30 Jan 2013 17:32:56
Rumours that moyes will bid for luis Muriel of udinese
Good player and only 21 very fast striker just what
We need COYB
John efc

Looks a realy good young player with lots of potential, doubt we will get this lad, I hope so though! COYB IMWT

30 Jan 2013 19:31:39
Yes I know but if we can bag him he would be a great signing
John efc

Would love him at everton would be a great edition to any squad

30 Jan 2013 16:32:10
As suspected the Fer deal is off, just hope we can bring in ofoe on loan at least, need some cover for gibbo and a right winger wouldn't go far wrong, looks like mirallas is going to miss the game tonight..

Normal pr spin from kenwright. They probably had no intention of signing fer in the first place. Spend 3k on a private jet to make look kosher for the fans is cheaper than laying 8m for the player. Leave it vitually at the close of the window so its too late to sign anyone else.Will not blame moyes at all for leaving at the end of the season. What I can't understand is if they really wanted ofoe in August why wasn't he signed on the 1st jan. the way the club conducts its transfer dealing is an embarassment {Ed025's Note - no fella!...YOU are the embarrassment!...get back to toffeweb, with all the moaning minnies, and all your conspiracy theory mates..

Well said Ed! Can't be doing with people like this guy...go and support Brenda and her girls if you want to have a moan!

Murf

I think the club genuinelly wanted this guy but in our financial situation we have to be more than careful what we spend our money on. ONE misplaced expensive signing could destroy 10 years good work. Imagine where we would end up if we wasted even half the 20-30 million the reds did on aquillani, for example. don't panic, the club will spend wisely before 11pm tomorrow, they almost always do.
Not sure we will get ( or even want)ofoe though. He looks a decent player, but if I was him I probably wouldn't sign for us. It is clear he is not top of our wish list, so he can't be feeling like he is really wanted here. At the same time, maybe he isn't as good as everyone seems to think. It's not like there is a long list of clubs desparate to sign him!

Hold on I don't blame bk from pulling out ov this deal it was stated we did still want the player but twente wudnt accept alternative terms they wudnt av gon 2 all that trouble if they weren't going to sign him it's just like you would you spend say 30grand on a BMW with a dodgy engine no well ! Just wait we will stil sign sum1 but it looks like wer only after quality players which is gud like moyes sed hold on 2 your hats wait and see !

Don't blame moyes or bk, think it was the right decision. Clearly looking out for the club, don't want to pay 8m cash and then an injury set back and money gone. Makes perfect sense to make the cost dependant on appearances.
Mclovin

Why announce a deal is done before he passed the medical then. Little bit nieve don't you think?If you look at all the posts on monday we nothing but "in bill we trust" it obviouly worked with some of our less streetwise fans {Ed025's Note - the conspiracy page is at the top..along with alien invasions, and levitation..

I agree with you ed.Everton had been working on this deal for ages and have been looking into other transfers. It takes a lot of time you fool, and everton are not in a position to rush into transfers. Prices drop when the transfer deadline ends and that's why a lot of bussiness is done at the end of the transfer window. It was not predicted that there would be an issue in the medical and everton tried to work a way around it. Fc Twente declined that proposal so everton pulled out. It was sensible to pull out, the risk on almost 9 million would not be worth it. You are a embarrasment son!

Is rite ed, that's exactly what that is a conspiracy.

UNBELIEVABLE!!

Shropshire Blue.

1st reply sounds like a TW veteran. I've never come across a more cynical, negative bunch than those lot there. Unbelievable lot them. Conspiracies, Moyes bashing and rubbish talking aplenty, and one of the editors is the worst of the lot {Ed025's Note - i know..real evertonians would not use it, filthy language, and 100% negativity..

30 Jan 2013 16:20:47
Atletico Bilbao have taken back their contract offer to Fernando Amorebieta because the club and the player both want him to leave. He has stated in the past that should he leave- it would be to Everton

JG

Summer Transfer not enough time left to finalize it before 11 o clock tomorrow

He can say he would go wherever he wants, doesn't mean we want him though

Do we need another CB at this point....

He has said no such thing. I expect him to move to Liverpool to replace the imminent departure of Martin Skrtel in the Summer.

Everton have confirmed the deal to sign Leroy Fer from FC Twente is off. Source tv

30 Jan 2013 16:22:17
"Everton's £8.6m move to sign FC Twente's Leroy Fer has collapsed after a medical revealed a problem with his knee.

"The Merseyside club wanted to restructure the deal based on appearances or clauses - but discussions between the two clubs aimed at finding a resolution broke down on Wednesday afternoon.

"Everton had given FC Twente a deadline of Wednesday evening to agree to the new deal but the Dutch club insisted on keeping to the original agreement.

From the Dog!

Is only right if the fer, is not fit, I don't think we have heard the last of this?but upwards and onwards, another davey gem around the corner, 3 points please boys tonight, some quality banter from mike-loving it.chin up blue boys

How do we know it is because of injury - maybe its because we have bo money and where trying to con them. {Ed025's Note - get a life!!

30 Jan 2013 15:52:41
Fc twenty tried to pull a fast one!we not having none of it £8mill a lot of money if the player becomes injury prone.ryan

30 Jan 2013 15:45:03
Fer deal off. Get Diame.

30 Jan 2013 15:16:32
we have signed a spanish striker?. so i'm told. any news on this?

30 Jan 2013 13:12:28
fer deal is well and truly off, twente can't give assurance about his knee and everton won't pay all 9m up front incase he gets injured right away, also he left on a flight back to holland, real shame

Ahhh, there is absolutely no way Everton would ever, ever, ever pay the 9mil upfront, never the case, it was more 3mil upfront with the rest in instalments. The problem is, Everton want to replace some of the instalments with appearance based classes which Twente are reluctant to do

Not true. But nice try. You're pretending to be in the know when all you are doing is adding 2+2 together and making 5

But apparently his agent is still here trying to sort a deal out, I'd say its a 50/50 chance of going through

Last nights news that m8, things have changed today ;)

Ok so tell me what wrong about the post then, no I don't claim to be in the know, he has gone back to holland and evertob are trying to re negotiate the deal because of his knee scan on the medical, all from tv

He must know something because tv has just said the deal is off..

It will be interesting when Fer, returns to Holland, as no doubt he will be angry and frustrated and along with his agent wanting the move. Player power may yet prevail. On saying that, if he is crocked and the medical staff are doing their job, its only right that we were concerned.
Copoue back on the radar?, no doubt Everton have other targets, it will be a midfieder, interesting to see I and who.

30 Jan 2013 12:45:05
Fer has gone back to holland. He won't be paraded tonight. We are looking at other targets. But expect 3 signings in before 11pm tomorrow. D

30 Jan 2013 12:31:09
Leroy fei to complete move to Everton later on

30 Jan 2013 11:46:31

Hello eds / blues, the efc / olympiakos fan here that brought the mirallas news, haven't posted just commented this window as I hadnt heard anything regarding the blues, however, back in the hellenik homeland there's apparently all sorts of noise regarding kostas manolas, signed for olympiakos at the start of the season from AEK, been maturing in the first team and apparently daveys been sending scouts, we nearly signed this kid last year.. maybe the time is right in summer with sylvan nocking on, also my mate in naples reckons that were after lorenzo insigne, plays for napoli and is ment to be a tricky little striker with pace.. but other than that I've heard nothing.. apparently worth £10m but moyes wants a loan-to-buy offer - GiannisTheBlue

30 Jan 2013 09:03:37
Gutted about Fer
Hope we can get it done!
BBC saying Everton want a deal before K.O. Tonight.
Thoughts Ed? Cheers Mate
Dan1 {Ed001's Note - I am trying to get this verified, but someone at Birmingham tells me you and Celtic enquired about Redmond from them last night. For me, that would suggest the Fer deal would be off, I don't think Celtic have the funds for both. That would only be if it is correct info and you are looking elsewhere for signings now.}

{Ed001's Note - oops meant Everton wouldn't have the funds for both not Celtic, just noticed my error.}

30 Jan 2013 01:40:26
I am as sceptical as many of you about the David Villa rumour, I actually was told by the same guy twice whilst doing a promo for a certain popular football game the first time was in sydney and the second in New Jersey. I have worked with this guy on and off for a few years and he is a member of the games production team and spends a lot of time with players, managers and agents. He seems to believe Barca are willing to pay a percentage of his wage if it will possibly lead to a permanent transfer. As I said I'm not sure how I feel about it as it would be an expensive acquisition for an aging player but he still has a good few years at the highest level and would still chip in with plenty of goals.
I will let you all read into it what you may. Remember I'm just the messenger.

SydneyBlue

Think you should stop taking the tablets what a load of tosh keep it factual please coyb

Hope it comes off syd! :) GiannisTheBlue

'keep it factusl please' its a roumers site not a factul site

I would take villa tomorrow.
We have seen many times that 1 player can make a difference to a team.
His goals would surely bring us the champions league.
Pablo

No chance...Need a striker long term not a quick fix.

Quick fix will do for the next 18 months tbh

30 Jan 2013 04:28:10
I think if we would have kept the strac he would of been great he could of played up top with jela and would of taken pressure off him he used to run through defences like they where a girls football team defence and ino his goal scoring rate wasn't prolific but even if he scored ten goals that could be the difference beetween 4/5

We all loved stracq, but I think his asking price was 5 mil at the time and i'm sure we didn't have it. Loved the man, but had zero ability. I heard leicester swerved him 3 days into a week long trial so he ouldnt have been all that great. Infuriating though, just wish some prem footballs had his work rate and passion. Would still like to see him in the prem.
molly888

I agree with original poster, I think the strac would've kept on improving and turned into a valuable player for us. Guys like that are great to have in your squad, you allways know you're going to get 100% out of them and keep the pressure on starting players for their spot. Similar style of player to anichebe with anichebe having bit more polish to his game maybe why we didn't keep him
blue benny

I don't believe any of this, strac had no ability nonsense, it's simply not true. I know as fans we all like to think we know what we're talking about and we could do better but he is a professional footballer, whilst there are many pros that could be described as bad, almost all of them would make us look persons on a pitch. Give a guy, from a very different league, 6 months to prove himself in the best league in the world and it will take time. Think of all the players that have come and looked terrible but turned out good. It's not like he didn't score, plus i'd like to see how many people could head a ball that is on the floor! talk about ability haha

29 Jan 2013 23:29:19
FC Twente are still confident a deal can be reached with Everton over Leroy Fer.
