Apparently denayer from city wants to move on with otamendi joining.
Would take him in a heartbeat. Young and was arguably a better performer then van dijk last season for Celtic and everyone on here seems desperate for us to get him!
Guessing he wouldn't be too expensive either which would suit bill and the board down to the ground!

Owen Coyle on talksport about 10. 30 saying Kone expected to leave this week and EFC is his preference. Looks like a done deal. Good player but doesn't help with the average squad age! let's hope it's a decent price
1.) Good player?. please debate.
As for price, that will be a minimum of 5 million.
2.) Why is he not a good player? quick, strong & more importantly SCORES goals. what is the point in having a low average age? surely its about ability and not age
3.) So what if he is 29, if he can bang in goals for 2-3 seasons, better than having neville on the books and doing f**k all
4.) I hate fans who are so concerned about age, he's 29 not 50, you can't just bye a 18 year old no good for next season
5.) Point is he's 29 and and DOESN'T bang in goals.6mil off everton. Whelan has done well.
6.) The fans who say "I hate fans who are so concerned about age" are completely missing the point, normally we would not be bothered about signing a couple older players, but it's the fact that we have about the 2nd oldest squad in the Premier League, and we don't want to add to that and become the oldest squad! A list of the players who are over 27 (including Alcaraz and Kone if they sign)
Mucha, Howard, Jagielka, Baines, Distin, Hibbert, Alcaraz, Osman, Pienaar, Hitzlsperger, Jelavic & Kone
We should be aiming to get younger players, and fans who "hate fans who are so concerned about age" seem to think this means 17/18 year olds. Well it doesn't, it means younger than the likes of Kone & Alcaraz.
7.) I thought mucha and 'der hammer' had been released?

I hope this new wild card system for the CL isn't true. No point fighting the super league to then do this. Might as well scrap the league and let uefa choose who they want to partake and keep the 'big' clubs happy. Or let them just have a super league and bugger off.
I wouldn't mind but go back 30 years and only utd, arsenal and them next door would actually be included from these so called big clubs. Everything is cyclical hence why we love football. Imagine if the premier league scrapped relegation and went down the US route. Would be great for the big clubs in the league who aren't too 6 but completely against the spirit of the sport.
I am at the point where I am sick of football and clubs trying to shut up shop so there is no competition. If that's what you want do it properly like in America and let the worst teams get the best young players to balance out the competition but they won't do that will they?

I actually preferred it when just the champions of their respective league went into the European Cup. Now, when a team comes 3rd can win the champions league, when they're not even champions of their own league, it isn't a champions league it's just another, bigger European cup!
3.) 14 Apr 2022 08:05:41
The Cup winners Cup was in my very honest opinion, the noblest Cup comp. of them all, the knockout footy special-ists of Europe battling it out to find out which of them were really the 'best'. Where the the European Cup was always about the teams with the most league stamina as well as skill of course and then thrown into a gladiatorial cup comp. which meant that if they were not very good at knockout footy they fell by the wayside.
The CL is a leveller in that respect however greed has distorted it to what will be a grotesque state of affairs.
07 Mar 2022 21:28:47
Well I genuinely think we are going down. No way there are 3 teams worse than us. Carragher was being polite saying our defence is a championship defence as not even that good.
Coleman has been a great servant but is so slow now and is constantly getting caught out. Keane might be one of the worst centre backs the premier league has ever seen. The less said about holgate the better and consideypickford is England number 1, you could spend £5m and get a goalie who was as good if not better.
I feel for lampard no idea why he took the role the club is a joke. Even the 2 full backs we signed clearly aren't good enough as can't get in this team!
1.) 07 Mar 2022 21:42:28
If it wasn't for pickford, thisd be 8 or 9 by now.
2.) 07 Mar 2022 22:20:38
If it wasn't for Pickford a fragile team with no confidence wouldn't have conceded a quickfire second.
08 Feb 2022 21:39:56
Well that was embarrassing. Feel for frank as he is the man who will take us down. Players are just so poor there is no way there are 3 teams worse than us. I like the way he wants to play but we need big Sam 10 behind the ball and then we still wouldn't have enough.
At least frank has experience in the championship! Not that it matters this lot aren't good enough for that division either. How on earth after a net spend of £300m+ are we in this situation?
1.) 08 Feb 2022 21:42:55
Championship level players take you to the championship.
2.) 08 Feb 2022 21:47:06
Early days. Give Frank time. We won't go down.
3.) 08 Feb 2022 21:50:38
Farad moshri and his advisors.
13 Dec 2021 11:09:47
Why has the waiter not been sacked yet? I was never against him for his past links, I was against him for his football. He is miles worse than big Sam who at least could organise a defence. Rafa plays the worst football ever and couldn't organise a gathering in a pub.
He has taken practically the same team as Carlo and made it 10 times worse and is basically trying to move digne on when he is one of our best players (yes I appreciate he hasn't been at his best his season) . He has history for this too. Caused issues with ronaldo at Madrid, took the best team in the world and destroyed them in 6 months (inter) .
The way we are going Rafa will get us relegated. No way there are 3 teams worse than us at the minute.
Everyone keeps saying this isn't rafas fault. It's the same squad as last year pretty much. How can he justify the drop off? Yes we all know the squad is terrible and that isn't his fault but he knew the tools he had when he accepted the role and he is doing worse than Sam, koeman, silva and Carlo.
Surely the fans suggesting he needs time must of had enough now? Everyone wanted rid of Mina 12 months ago and now we talk about him like he is the worlds best centre back because he has missed games. He misses games every season that's nothing new!
I knew after the first 8 games we wouldn't keep it up and it was because we had a lucky start to the season but the drop off has been alarming. You can see on the touch line he has no clue what to do. His answer, get rid of the best full back we have had since baines!
Anyway rant over could go on forever about this.
1.) 13 Dec 2021 11:38:24
I don't think they are going to fire him just yet, Rl, especially after sacrificing Brands last week. I'm not saying that's right just that I don't see FM pulling the trigger on this one.
We have missed Mina this season, strangely enough. Before the Arsenal game, we had won 54% of the games he played and this drops considerably when he is out injured. He's not the best CB in the world but, this season, he has been one of our better CB's.
I think the Digne situation will be resolved and he will be brought back in. If he has been disruptive or shown a bad attitude then I have no problem with the player being disciplined, we need everyone of them pulling up trees not just going through the motions.
Rafa isn't to blame for the clubs problems, they have evidently been there for a long time. From top to bottom of the club, there is something quite not right but how do we move on from this?
The buck stops with the manager, however, and he doesn't seem to do himself any favours. We can voice our displeasure at the tactics, team selection, substitutes and lack of youth players getting game time. These are the things he has control over and he will live or die by these decisions.
The players shouldn't be given a free pass in all of this. They should be busting a gut in every game, not just at home when they have the crowd behind them. Bottle jobs the majority of them, not good enough to wear the shirt. As fans, we will forgive them if they are putting in the effort and show a level of commitment but this happens once in a blue moon.
At this moment in time, and forgetting the work being done on the new stadium, we have a sh*t owner, sh*t manager and sh*t players.
2.) 13 Dec 2021 12:14:35
Entirely agree with all of those comments. Somebody said they wouldn't have Potter as a manager . I don't think he would come anyway as his team play decent football. They have only lost 3 games this season. Let's be honest about this, who is out there to take over and keep us in the premiership?
3.) 13 Dec 2021 12:59:08
Whilst I don't think Moshiri is, in anyway free from blame, I can't see us moving on until Kenwright steps away from the club.
Ever since Moshiri came in there has been confusion and tension regarding who controls what. Numerous agents have spoken about how convoluted negotiations are with the club, and how often things need to be repeated with different figures within the organization. Kenwright publicly backing Moshiri into a corner over Benitez is further evidence of that.
I know a lot of us, myself included, are not big fans of Rafa, but ditching him now, without addressing the deeper issues that led us to this point, won't help us.
We are in a very deep hole at the moment. Superficial changes of personnel are not going to make the slightest bit of difference. The problems are structural and need to be addressed accordingly.

JohnAnt, I could be totally wrong but I don't believe that BK has as much influence as we think. Maybe that has changed a little since MB resigned but I think FM, as the owner, is ultimately in charge. I think the direction of the club in the last 5 years goes someway to proving this. When BK was in charge, we all knew the workings of the club. FM comes in and made sweeping changes and now look at us. The DoF role hasn't helped us in the way they seemed to think it would. Money has ruined our club, along with some terrible transfer decisions. The entire club, from owner to manager to players, really need to start pulling in the same direction and show us fans a bit of desire, commitment and a bit of fight.
5.) 13 Dec 2021 13:32:15
after hearing a board member wants rooney I think we should get rid of the board before the manager, I think rafa knows how bad backroom staff are.
6.) 13 Dec 2021 14:43:06
Mike Parry (the share holder) is a true blue. But he is a bit of a loon.
01 Nov 2020 15:31:54
Our midfield is still awful. Gomes and sigurdsson are so slow they kill any move and need to be sold asap. No backup wingers as proved today and back to normal with no threat. Newcastle could of played all week without conceding. Doucoure doing nothing not quite sure what he adds. At least Allan and James make clear contributions.
1.) 01 Nov 2020 17:03:03
I think the team were just awful. The amount of times there were no options for a forward pass reminded me of the Martinez days. The amount of times Delph got given the ball out wide but was repeatedly incapable of lifting the ball to cross it in. It’s yet again frustrating to be an Everton fan. Anthony Gordon looked good when he came on against Southampton. He had urgency and bags of desire to get forward. Iwobi looks like he’s running with 3 legs at times. Surely the professionals can see what we are watching. I agree, DCL and the keeper get praises today. The rest I haven’t got words for.
10 May 2022 19:11:06
Well if we can’t we deserve to go down.
08 May 2022 10:35:31
Ed, if 8/ 9 leave and with our huge FFP issues, I assume it will be youth and free transfers we have to rely on to plug the gap and form a new squad?
If that’s the case, if we don’t go down this season we surely will next!
{Ed002's Note - Not entirely.}
07 Apr 2022 11:06:16
Surely none of them will leave? They will be lucky to play in the championship as none are better than league 1 standard anyway.
13 Mar 2022 19:07:41
Haha people will be crying out to buy a club about to drop to the championship with players that might just about be good enough for league 1 and in mountains of debt!
What an attractive option. Moshiri might be the worst business man on the planet! All he is is a puppet for usmanovs fraudulent millions not that they did us much good.
Stadium will end up falling through I reckon. We could be the next derby which would be typical of Everton after having no money for 20 yrs then getting a few quid.
22 Feb 2022 12:09:03
Don’t want Gilmore he can’t even get in the Norwich team and when he does he is poor. It’s ok playing well for Chelsea when surrounded by world class players but if he came to Everton he would be surrounded by poor players much like at Norwich so would fail miserably!
