Good to see we have rejected a bid from Ipswich for 4m for Simms.
We always seem to give them away for sweet fa and then get our pants pulled down the other way round. If clubs want our players then pay up.
1.) 27 Jun 2023 19:47:01
Apparently Bills holding out for 3 million.

? ? Smit ✋.

It will be undisclosed.
4.) 29 Jun 2023 18:17:40
Trade him in part exchange for the Coventry striker.
23 Jun 2023 22:19:50
Ed's,
Hope you are well.
Do you know if there is any interest from us in Boulaye Dia? From what I have seen of him, I thought he would have better clubs than us and West Ham after him.
He is strong on the ball, is good with his back to goal and bringing others into play, quick and can score with both feet. He is everything we need and I would rather have him than any other strikers I have seen us linked with.
Cheers Ed's!

Spiky.
20 Jun 2023 18:54:03
Links to Harrison, Gnonto, Adams and latest, Summerville! ?
I'd happily have Adams and Harrison and think they improve us.
We should see if Leeds fancy 5 for the price of 2. Give them Gray, Iwobi, Gomes, Davies and Gbmanin!
1.) 20 Jun 2023 22:26:46
Out all them gnoto is one I'd want most. I'd take Rodrigo of them aswell if his release clause is accaulty 3.5 mil.
09 Jun 2023 00:54:06
Doubt they are true like but I like those links to McTominay, he would be smart business for us.
Exactly the type of character we need. Big strong lad and loves a tackle. Has passion and fight about him.
They must be wanting money that we can't afford, for him.
1.) 09 Jun 2023 10:38:55
Would be an upgrade on gueye.
Only way could see it happening is if Onana was going the other way.
2.) 09 Jun 2023 11:30:35
McTominay, Diallo, Wan-Bissaka, Malacia, Elanga, Brandon Williams. They've a few players that would improve our first team squad. I think McTominay is underrated, he seems to score key goals and definitely has the work ethic to be appreciated by our fans. Can't see this one happening unfortunately. Think he'd have offers from teams in Europe if he was available.
3.) 09 Jun 2023 12:31:33
Think I would take all those players mate. Definitely improve the squad, sadly won't happen.
Ooooooor
They have Pickford and Onana
We have Henderson and 3 of our pick from above ha ha.
4.) 09 Jun 2023 12:40:29
I'd take that Bunk beds with McTominay, Diallo and Wan Bissaka being my picks.
5.) 09 Jun 2023 16:28:08
I don't want rid of Pickford, but Henderson a good replacement and Pickford would sweeten any deal for Utd.
21 May 2023 12:33:46
West Ham starting with a strong lineup there.
Leeds with some strange decisions. Strujik in the middle instead of Roca.
Kristensen at CB.
Got a good chance here Blues!
1.) 21 May 2023 13:52:47
Strange decisions?
Not sure they’re strange as after 20 minutes Leeds are 1-0 up!
We’re doomed!
2.) 21 May 2023 14:12:29
1-1
50mins to go.
3.) 21 May 2023 15:04:53
Yessssssssssss.
4.) 21 May 2023 15:07:08
How sad is it we are resorting to supporting sides downfalls because our club is continously on a downward trend year after year.
{Ed025's Note - its a dog eat dog world mate..
5.) 21 May 2023 15:15:22
Indeed Ed, it’s us or them.
6.) 21 May 2023 15:40:26
Of course I'm delighted with that . But if we stay up there should be a huge protest after the Bournemouth game. We cannot do this again ever 33 points we should be dead and buried already if it wasn't for awful sides we'd be gone already.
7.) 21 May 2023 16:22:42
Doomed, doomed, we’re all doomed!
8.) 21 May 2023 16:42:29
Best protest would be everyone walking out the ground the second the full time whistle goes if we do stay up.
Don't want another pitch invasion as if we stay up as though it's some 'achievement' to celebrate. Let them bin off the lap of honour because there's nobody left in the ground.
9.) 22 May 2023 23:05:47
Thought exactly the same. I pray we beat Bournemouth however I hope everyone rushes out the ground as soon as final whistle goes. I love the club, I hate the board and 95 percent of these players.

So we survived relegation by the skin of our teeth. We have lost/ let go multiple players and are yet to make any signings.
Add to that the s^*t show that is going on in the background.
All this and Dyche thinks he can just jet off to Glastonbury and forget all about it. Absolute joke.
Dyche out!
{Ed025's Note - everyone is entitled to a holiday mate, plenty of time to go in this window and we do have these things called telephones now..
1.) 22 Jun 2023 21:27:31
How do know that Dyche has not already given a list of who he wants and now letting the one board get on with it. What will it achieve by not going?
2.) 22 Jun 2023 22:42:14
Not a Dyche fan but that's very harsh. He's absolutely allowed a weekend off. We don't have anyone signing cheques so what's he meant to do? Fix the guttering, paint the changing rooms? Fix the toilets and change some light bulbs? I do find it funny that's he's apparently a "rave fan" and think him and Deli will possibly be on the balloons down Arcadia stage bobbing about to the block rockin beats of the Chemical Brothers. Wonder if he will fine himself for "over doing it"? You don't go to Glasto without having a little "extras" I didn't when I used to go. I'm sure he's tucked up in his £750 yurt by 5am every night like a good boy. I actually have a lot more time for him now I know he's up for letting his hair down. He'd best put some sun lotion on his bonce. That Somerset sun really stings. Reach for the fuc9in lazers lad.
3.) 22 Jun 2023 23:23:14
On the ‘extras’ now lad?
4.) 22 Jun 2023 23:36:23
Wow, that’s a bit steep JMW. The bloke is entitled to some down time, as we all are.
5.) 23 Jun 2023 00:10:28
If I was 10 years younger. I might need to get on the anti depressants come mid August though.
6.) 23 Jun 2023 00:18:40
Are you serious slating Dych for taking a holiday? He’s kept us up and in doing so saved us from financial catastrophe. Think he deserves a couple of weeks off at least.
He’ll have said what he wants and who he wants out, not his job to execute that.
7.) 22 Jun 2023 22:25:46
? Sorry Ed, this post was 100% sarcasm. Just wanted to see who would jump onboard and call for his head.
I guess most must be happy with Dyche in charge now, which is great to see.
{Ed025's Note - you did get a few bites there JMW, sean is as good as we are likely to get mate so people are bound to be defensive..
8.) 23 Jun 2023 07:59:15
I prefer the defense Ed, means more people are on board.
After some poor results last season some folks turned a bit.
Good gauge to see what us fans think of him and not one agreed with me! A bit of unity it seems!
Have a good day gents.
{Ed025's Note - you too mate..

I have a friend who has worked in ticketing for years and PSV have been one of his longest clients. He often goes over there and has made some good friends with some of their lads/ staff.
Much like we have gotten excited over the years with your Rooney's, Barkley's, Gordon's etc. They have had their fair share of youth lads come through as well.
Maalen £25m, Madueke £30m, Depay £40m, Bergwijn 30m, Gakpo £38m.
My friend has told me that they all think that this Babadi lad could be better than them all and perhaps go on to be as good as an older PSV and much better winger than the above, a Mr Arjen Robben.
PSV have already brought another lad through from their youth this season in the form of Bakayoko (Johan, not Ibrahima) . He is 20, where as Babadi has only just turned 18.
He is yet to play for the first team and only has 1 year left on his contract, meaning that his price will be anywhere near the above.
This is exactly the signing we should be making. Buying them before they do it on a credible stage and their price rockets.
The lad certainly looks to have some great attributes. Great stop/ start speed, can dribble and is comfortable with either foot. (All relatively expected characteristics for a winger) .
Perhaps where he seems to be a bit of an outlier is that although he favours being on the wing, he can also play inside as an AM. This might explain his impressive vision and the ability to execute all types of passes.
To top it all off, the lad seems to have an impeccable first touch which already sets him apart from most lads in our side.
Perfect scenario would be to push for Diallo loan and have this lad pushing him and McNeil for minutes, taking all the pressure off him to perform. We can give him time to blood him in.
1.) 16 Jun 2023 09:48:26
Sounds decent but I do have a question, jmw. If the lad hasn't played any first team football, how can we be certain that he is so good and ready for a move to England? Should we not at least give our own youth players a chance before using any of our limited budget? Mills should be at least given a chance over preseason to stake his own claim.
2.) 16 Jun 2023 10:23:29
Henry onyekuru springs to mind. Supposed to be an amazing up and coming player. We bought him, couldn’t get a work permit so loaned him out and don’t think he kicked a ball for us.
3.) 16 Jun 2023 10:27:51
These are the types of signings I'd like to see and that most fans would get behind I think. There is balance with needing experience and proven ability, but young talent with sell on value must be the way forward. The competition for this type of player is fierce and anyone with any spotlight on them just end up at someone like Chelsea and then being loaned out. Going to be interesting to see who we can attract to the club.
4.) 16 Jun 2023 11:24:25
I'll have a go! 72!
5.) 16 Jun 2023 11:38:17
He sounds good but I'm with gingerdan on this one. There was another Swiss player, can't think of his name who we got. Supposed to be brilliant but never kicked a ball for us.
6.) 16 Jun 2023 12:17:39
Are you thinking of Shani Tarashaj blueray?
7.) 16 Jun 2023 13:25:32
we should be all over him and plenty more of those types of players. other clubs do it year in year out just got to look at rb leipzig. and i think its clear that we do not produce any good players anymore. you could literally count them on one hand (rooney barkley, rodwell) can't think of many more (gordons sh*te)
8.) 16 Jun 2023 23:41:11
There are no certainties in football Potato.
This is where the recruitment team should earn their money and run through all the tape there is on the player. For me he looks like he has attributes that will make him a shoo-in for a top club.
I think we should definitely give our youth more of a chance and it is certainly something that irks me. I was calling for Mills to be given a chance last season. If a player is showing the right signs, give them a chance. Even if there is no intent to have them in and around as a starter, to give them minutes and experience is fundamental to their development.
Look at the likes of PSV, Lyon, Dortmund, Bayern. They don't care about age. If you are good enough, then you get your chance.
With regards to Mills and Babadi. Different leagues from what I have seen mate.
As for Tarashaj, the only person that talked him up was Martinez. "Phenomenal talent" my jacksie.
9.) 17 Jun 2023 11:41:09
I agree there are no certainties mate when it comes to football. I'm on the side of caution on this one, as others have said in reply, we've bought players in the past that where meant to be the next wonderkid but they didn't even make it to the first team. The difference in the league's is vast too.
With a limited transfer budget and an unbalanced squad that has no depth, gambling on youth players from a weaker league can bite us on the backside. Mills should definitely be given a chance before we have to dip into the transfer kitty imo mate.
10.) 17 Jun 2023 15:28:29
Only have eyes for blue, that's the fella I was talking about. Hyped up and disappeared.
15 Jun 2023 19:00:29
Forwards
- Beto
- Free or seriously cheap striker.
Midfielders
- Diallo (loan)
Defenders
- Buongiorno
- Castagne (cover both flanks and starts over Myko)
Would love those 5 signings. I know we need a couple more but I think the above would tend to our biggest holes first.
12 Jun 2023 21:55:37
Good to hear Seamus is staying. Massive to have him around as he still loves the club like the fans do.
1.) 12 Jun 2023 22:45:35
He is the last of players like that. They simply don't exist anymore.
2.) 13 Jun 2023 07:35:41
That’s the problem with football these days no loyalty, they will play anywhere if the money is right.

05 Jun 2023 22:52:52
I have read that some teams are after Clarke from Sunderland. I would rather offer United a loan for the lad they had on the other side Diallo, that is if Ten Hag doesn't want to use him yet.
Even though he is left footed, he would plug a huge hole on that right side. We have nothing there. The lad has some serious ability and would certainly offer us goals, either by himself or him making them for others.
1.) 06 Jun 2023 09:11:31
I would happily take both.
2.) 06 Jun 2023 11:03:50
Watched Sunderland a few times whilst Simms was there. Diallo looks decent but gave me the impression that he is way to lightweight for the prem.
3.) 06 Jun 2023 11:17:20
The championship is as difficult as the premier league from a physical point of view so he’s proved himself there. My brother is Sunderland so watch them a fair bit and go from time to time, we really need a right winger. clarke is a very good player also. My only thoughts are would he dislodge McNeil who arguably was one of our best players post the Dyche appointment.
4.) 07 Jun 2023 12:30:18
Clarke is the next Grealish. Well that's what he thinks anyway.
5.) 07 Jun 2023 19:56:10
The championship is no where near as physical as the prem. The centre backs in the prem are bigger, fitter and physically Bigger than the championship.
It's the reason, Leicester, forest and Leeds have struggled.
24 Jun 2023 03:21:48
? Fair enough Ed. Cheers!
24 Jun 2023 02:58:58

19 Jun 2023 08:09:57
Like the lad a lot. Always looked like a grafter too when I have watched him. He would be our best wide player if he was signed. Can't see him being any less than 15/ 20 million though.
17 Jun 2023 17:14:31
Read a rumour that the fee is 6m ?
A young 6ft 5, left-footed 21 year old center back, who is good on the ball. Good one.
I think he will start the season next to Tark. Only problem is and because we are Everton. If he starts promisingly, a big club may try for him between the 1st game and the end of the window.
If that is the case I wouldn't be letting him go for anything less than 20m with a clause in, maybe a sell on fee or first refusal buy-back.
I am looking forward to seeing him play. Even from his Carlisle days, it was clear he possessed decent talent on the ball. Don't get me wrong, he didn't pull up any trees in the 10+ games for us but he certainly showed glimpses. If he has had the opportunity to grow into his body a little bit, get used to the man's game and gather some confidence, he could be like a "new signing" for us.
I wish him the best of luck. Seems like a nice lad to me and just happy to play football. Not to misquote the lad but he was asked a question in an interview, whether he would look for a move if we went down. He said something along the lines of "I am an Everton player, therefore if Everton want me for next season and it is in the Championship, I will play for the club with just as much happiness in the Championship as I would in the Premier League. "

The lad jogged around the pitch a one pace. If that is his 100% I would rather have someone who showed emotion and a level of desire at 50% Sticky.
Personally I am made up he has finally gone. Was wasting a space in the first team that one of the younger lads could have had, like Price or Warrington.
17 Jun 2023 14:04:13
I didn't say they were but surely experience and the level of football you have competed at comes into play when a value is determined.
Whichever way you look at it, Pickford is much more highly thought of than Henderson is, so why would they be valued at the same price.
{Ed002's Note - That is not how values are determined and Henderson will move elsewhere in the coming weeks - Everton are not involved in the matter at all.}
17 Jun 2023 13:03:48
Ed, how are they worth the same when one has played over 200 PL games. Starts for his country and has played 50 time the amount the the other has, playing in Euro finals and WC semi-finals?
{Ed002's Note - Players are not valued based on appearances.}
