We getting worried blue boys, have faith, we wiĺl come up with a marquee signing, don't know who but we will, trust in RM and the board

31 Aug 2015 20:12:09
thats not funny graham57

31 Aug 2015 21:29:30
I have absolutely no trust in RM or the board. At all.

31 Aug 2015 22:04:32
You would of thought that any marquee players that were even remotely available would be in the bag by now, I wouldn't hold your breath, if the three big players he need we're two unknown South American players and Lennon (who I do like but hardly massive signing) then it's daft

31 Aug 2015 18:18:11
Are we getting anyone!?

{Ed025's Note - maybe tomorrow..

31 Aug 2015 18:35:33
Yep the 2 South Americans and Lennon.

31 Aug 2015 18:45:07
Tomorrow never comes Ed.

{Ed025's Note - when you say nothing at all.....oh sorry alan..i thought we were naming ronan keating hits.. :)

31 Aug 2015 19:19:11
Any glimmer of hope Ed? Sad times this mate. We've stood still this window again.

{Ed025's Note - i have to agree speke, the stance on john stones took a lot of pressure off the club, and although great has somewhat deflected the problem that we have which is lack of quality, our actual best team is quite strong (if it ever got played) but any injuries or suspensions will hit us really hard as the overall squad has a lot of weak points mate..

31 Aug 2015 19:35:09
Cheers Ed, I hope to god we don't end up with Lennon, will Mori sign do you think? Are you hearing any names who are targets?

{Ed025's Note - i expect mori to be done speke, tomorrow will be a big day in our season mate if you ask me..

31 Aug 2015 19:41:06
Could not agree more mate. Massive 22 hours for the board to save face. They're a shambles imo and things need to change asap. let's hope we're all happy this time tomorrow, but I won't hole my breath.

31 Aug 2015 18:09:26
I see the New Stadium has been mentioned today. I hope it ain't a distraction tactic for a quiet end to transfer window

31 Aug 2015 16:45:11
Reports in the last hour state that Liverpool are on the verge of signing our target Andriy Yarmolenko.

31 Aug 2015 18:13:35
Same reports who said he was on the brink of signing for Dortmund yesterday, Arsenal the day before, Barca the day before that and so on. We should wait until they're posing with the kit before getting annoyed at the board, especially considering that Liverpool are just the blank scrabble piece when it comes to transfers; got a player to link with someone but no team, use Liverpool!

31 Aug 2015 15:57:30
Hi Ed, just been reading we might be intrested in going for a loan with mikel from Chelsea, do you think there's any truth and would they do business after the stone dealings .

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of any interest from Everton in John Obi. Chelsea are certainly willing to let him leave at the right price - I don't think anyone has suggested he will be loaned anywhere. Besiktas were given permission to talk to the player but I am sure he would like to stay in England.}

31 Aug 2015 16:15:00
Sorry just read so much lately wasn't sure where I read it, soccernet Nigeria , says it all really , still would like to see him at Everton

31 Aug 2015 16:31:06
Please god no, makes Youssuf Mulumbo look like Patrick Viera.

31 Aug 2015 16:35:22
I think mikel is a good player, and although it's not a position we particularly need filled I would still him come. I read that it was a loan with a view to a purchase at the end of the season type deal.

{Ed025's Note - i think he is awful lee..

31 Aug 2015 16:42:02
Fair enough Ed, all our own opinions. But I think one thing we can agree on is that he won't be signing tomorrow either way.

31 Aug 2015 18:30:56
Forget any player from Chelsea coming to Everton after Stones knock back, more chance of Rooney signing for Liverpool

31 Aug 2015 14:34:04
Not too sure just which way it works, but the Transfer Deadline in Germany & in some other European countries expires at 7-15pm tonight.so we may have to do some business this evening. still think Yarmolenko is on the radar?? We should go out & spend around £30/40m on an attacking midfielder & a quality goalscorer. but will we?

{Ed025's Note - thats a NO gv..

31 Aug 2015 14:40:30
Even if the other countries windows are shut we can still sign players from them up until ours shuts at 18:00 tomorrow, wouldn't mind seeing us signing someone decent for decent money! Just hope the cash being saved may actually be for this stadium! Will find out in October I suppose

31 Aug 2015 15:30:13
How does that work? Surely if their window is shut it is shut? Also if we can still buy players tomorrow but the rest of Europe can't let's see for any deals involving our targets and their clubs, eg if Dortmund sign a winger then that dude is probably leaving. If Kiev sign a 10 then yarmelenko is probably leaving etc.

{Ed002's Note - The window for buying and registering players varies between countries. Everton can still buy tomorrow from countries where the window is shut but cannot sell to clubs in those countries. Everton can still sell to countries where the window is still open.}

31 Aug 2015 13:35:26
So there's a day left to this window and its gone quiet.I just can't understand why RM would said back in May that he wanted his business done early and yet here we are with one day too go we have Gerry, Clev and 2 S.Americans who we know very little about to show for it.Its embarrasing to say the least.As evertonians we are forever the optimists but I get the feeling tomorow will pass with no decent incomings.If that is the case then even a mid-table finish could be a struggle.

31 Aug 2015 18:19:00
Completely agree. Even if there aren't many places in the squad that needed strengthening too much, we needed a big name signing to boost morale, but instead we've gone for a player who (deservedly or not) has a reputation for being one of the worst CM's in England and a young winger who I get the impression Lukaku (along with other players) absolutely hates because he's so greedy. We've taken an average side, failed to improve it and battered the already apalling morale. Top 10 is beyond ambitious.

31 Aug 2015 11:56:59
Hi ed what the chances of Lennon an Austin coming in cheers ed

{Ed025's Note - i think spurs are asking too much for lennon dazza, and austin the same with QPR mate..

31 Aug 2015 14:19:25
Looks like I don't want to leave London Austin could be off to United for 15mill.

31 Aug 2015 11:19:49
I can't be bothered to copy and paste his surname, but the dortmund & polish winger. Jakub Blaszkowski (close) is on his way to Fiorentina I believe. so its not him.

Dortmund showed serious interest in Yarmolenko as his replacement, offering 20m Euros upfront. however I believe they have changed their target and are now looking at Janujaz.

All the players mentioned, are strongly linked with EFC, dortmund could hold the key to our signing.

I hope we get a pleasant surprise and I'm optimistic we will. just passing on what I know.

New to this avid reader everyday great site just wondering can we still buy players from other country's when there transfer closes but ares still open thanks

{Ed025's Note - i think when ours is shut thats it robbie..

31 Aug 2015 12:38:58
spain shuts at midnight so no one in from spain tomorrow!

31 Aug 2015 13:28:37
The Spanish window closes tonight, meaning Spanish clubs can no longer sign player, whereas British clubs can as the transfer window is open until Monday, because of the bank holiday. Once it close that's it I'm afraid.

31 Aug 2015 14:00:49
Yeah but ed rest of Europe shuts tonight. I was thinking the same Robbie. If everywhere else shuts at midnight tonight then does that mean we would be left with only options from English and South American teams?

31 Aug 2015 14:35:30
As long as our window is open we can sign from any country. The window closing doesn't stop you being allowed to sell to a club who's transfer window is still open

31 Aug 2015 15:32:55
Hang on, so if Spain decided to scrap the transfer window Barca and Madrid would be free to buy players all year and those players would leave immediately not during the next window? Can't be right can it?

{Ed002's Note - Please stop posting on this subject - you clearly don't understand it at all.}

31 Aug 2015 17:34:58
Charming Ed. Who dictates transfer windows? Leagues or Uefa or FIFA? Surely if it's leagues then the rule is useless as these days most transfers happen between different countries leagues. If it is FIFA it seems strange as they have no power over the premier league in any other way.
I was asking a question not in ignorance but to create discussion on this site. Why would a league stick to transfer windows if they can buy from other leagues that enforce them.
But i. Found your comment rude and disrespectful will use one of the countless other sites from now on.

. the Dinamo Kiev chairman 'Surkis' has been spouting off this morning that if Everton had come in earlier for Yarmalenko he would of sold him to us.app. we only entered negotiations 5 days ago & it gives them little chance to get in a suitable replacement.he goes on to say that he was happy with everything - the price was agreed & all the details. unbelievable, we are we always p"""""sing about so late in the window, it would seem from the horses mouth if we had gone for him earlier in the summer we could of got our man!! I guess getting Cleverly was more important (lol). I say give them Mcgeady in exchange for free & get the deal done b4 the deadline, what you reckon Ed?

{Ed002's Note - I really would not believe too much he says - or in to any translation. A deal was possible but the player has been screwing clubs around. Not only EFC. Dynamo Kyiv are putting a lot of effort and pressure on him to stay.}
