Question in the current environment would you be happy if the club signs CA's older targets on season long loans with Brands buying younger players for the future. Then after the unwanted players contracts expire at the end of season expire the club reassess the transfer policy.

I would take that all day long, after the last few years we need a proper plan in place and it's a killer but we need to be patient.
Carlo has always said that he will sign Good players and that they might not always be young but they will be Good.
2.) 26 Aug 2020 13:22:46
I'm happy, personally I'm sick of "building for the future" or buying unknowns or youngens with potential, as let's face it, this has been the plan for years and years and it hasn't exactly materialised has it.
I woukd like us to get some proven quality players in and actually enjoy going the game and watching us play some decent football,
I can't take another season like last year.

One for the Ed's. Do you know if we are in any talks that may lead to bringing in a new left back. Silva has been playing Robinson quite a bit in pre-season so I have a feeling that he is being assessed to see if he is good enough to play as a back up LB.
{Ed002's Note - I cannot tell you about any talks just now but I understand that interest of Everton and others remains for Marvin Plattenhardt. I have mentioned others that may also be options.}
1.) 22 Jul 2018 14:58:25
Arent we in for Digne?
{Ed002's Note - Sure maybe, but Digne is very much a defensive left back rather than a wing back - and perhaps not really what Everton need.}
2.) 22 Jul 2018 15:35:25
Would be mice to have some defenders who can defend.
3.) 22 Jul 2018 15:32:33
Thanks ed. I thought playing a front 3 with only 2 CBs would lessen the need for a more attacking playerlike Plattenhardt. But i'm not that familiar with Digne to be honest and agree that we still need an outlet from our full backs. With a front 3, when the wider players tuck in you do need an outlet. Silva does like an attacking and expansive style aswell which points to a more forward thinking full back. Not disagreeing with you in any way ed just exploring my opinion, admittedly based on a lack of knowledge :) Has there been a player profile on Digne please ed?
4.) 22 Jul 2018 20:58:54
Thanks ed appreciate the info.
5.) 22 Jul 2018 22:48:26
Yeah I agree Ed he’s not he most confident person going forward from what I’ve seen. Looks panicked on the ball which is strange for a Barcelona player but if silva and brands want him let’s get behind him.
16 Jun 2016 16:46:47
If anyone fancies a laugh take a look at the emerging whispers on sly if we get half the players we are being rumored with we would have the best squad in the PL if not Europe. As you said though Ed its nice to be in the situation for a change.
1.) 16 Jun 2016 17:06:14
ano that today whisper had Lucas moura on it.
26 May 2016 13:35:59
Hypothetical one here if Zlatan goes to MU do you think Rooney would be surplus to requirements would we be his first port of call.
{Ed025's Note - i would doubt it sa, he will play one more season at utd then end his career in the MLS i suspect mate..
1.) 26 May 2016 18:30:48
Rooney definitely playing at Utd next season. May leave come Jan but he'll start August at Utd.
26 May 2016 13:22:45
Hypothetical one here if Zlatan goes to MU do you think Rooney would be surplus to requirements would we be his first port of call.
{Ed025's Note - it would come down to money i think sa and that would make it a non starter, my feeling is that he will play one more season with utd then end his career in the MLS mate..
1.) 26 May 2016 16:05:56
If we are looking to offer £200 million wages to Hart, ok paper talk, but I would not rule Everton out of signing Rooney as his wages could be met, call me a romantic but I have a gut feeling, Rooney will be coming back to Everton.

I personally don't see what all the panic is about The PL are investigating a claim of a potential breech of P&S guidance. There has been no information from the PL put in the public domain other than they will review the case. Nothing has been said as to what the breech is actually for either. Anything in the media at this time is pure speculation. Even if found guilty there would probably be some sort of appeals process which would push any punishment down the road. So you may end up stressing over something that won't even come to fruition.
1.) 26 Oct 2023 14:26:14
You can print anything now as long as you use words like, could may or it's possible.
2.) 26 Oct 2023 17:40:29
My view is we will IF found guilty get 6points + 6 suspended for 2 years. I have nothing to base this on other that seeing how these things work over the years.
23 Aug 2022 14:02:51
Interesting that the EFC related media state the Gordon deal all but is done but the CFC related media state we are likely to reject any new offer.
19 Jul 2021 08:59:10
The club is in a difficult situation if they let everyone know their targets then prices will rise and pundits will give their opinions prior to signing which may have a detrimental affects on the transfer. Alternatively but not letting everyone know their transfer targets then the media can com up with speculation that frustrates supporters as they don't necessarily support the idea of signing particular players. Until we sign a player every thing is speculation so why get worried about it, it probably won't happen anyway. If you look at our latest signings within the club they are all quality players or players with potential. I trust the club not the media.
1.) 19 Jul 2021 14:45:06
All Premier League teams are in that position- often a player just goes to the highest bidder, or for the highest wages. And why not - it’s a job after all.
In terms of managing the squad - the club may well be quite far down the line of getting players out which means we can develop the squad. Securing squad players, on lower wages, could enable us to make 2/ 3 marque signings. Not every player needs to be a guaranteed starter - we need players who can do a job in the cups, cover injuries/ suspensions etc. Let’s judge the signings once deadline day comes.
{Ed025's Note - i will have the squad player shout JB, but there are a lot of nay sayers out there looking for a stick to beat rafa with and andros fits the bill perfectly for them mate, in my view we needed a bit of a decent signing to appease the doubters and it would have gone a long way to smoothing the transition of the new manager coming in..
2.) 19 Jul 2021 16:01:56
Don’t disagree, Ed, mate. Hopefully that big name signing that we can get excited about is just round the corner.
{Ed025's Note - hopefully JB but the only names at the moment are Gray and Townsend mate, lets hope things change..

Interesting interview on youtube Toffee TV with Guillem Balagué about Benitez. There is an obvious bias as Guillem knows Benitez personally but it does give you an insight into the Benitez and what he is about.
1.) 02 Jul 2021 16:49:43
Alternatively Rory who is a Chelsea fan/ Youtuber offers a slightly less favourable opinion on him in his video with Ped and Baz lol.
2.) 03 Jul 2021 10:58:22
Just watched it and the video he mentions when BenÃtez was Chelsea manager against Brentford. blimey, I had no idea how Chelsea fans felt about him.
28 Jun 2021 13:08:48
Saw this and thought yep this sums up football rumour journalism for me.
GARY LINEKER SENDS 3-WORD TWEET ABOUT £13M PLAYER LINKED TO EVERTON
"Dumfries is an athlete".
1.) 28 Jun 2021 16:45:40
4 words. Sums up Lineker.
2.) 28 Jun 2021 17:58:35
I met him last week in the lake district. An absolute gent.
26 Oct 2023 08:55:24
I disagree ed025 I don't think a point deduction would the punishment for exactly the same reason. The PL would be setting a precedence that could if they were not open and transparent with other clubs that breach the rules, possibly be open to a counter claim in the courts. I think they would go for a fine or transfer embargo.
{Ed025's Note - I hope your right sa but knowing our luck they will throw the book at us mate..
30 Aug 2023 09:24:23
Iwobi is our most creative player so if we want pretty football he needs replacing like for like if we sell. If we don't sell then he runs his contract down but will contribute. My preference would be to sell and look to replace in January or next season depending on how the season is going as I am not bothered about pretty football in the slightest as long as we win.
26 Aug 2023 11:09:11
Best bring in a new CB then 4 is not enough especially when one is not very good.
25 Aug 2023 18:14:24
Unless he is replaced by a u23/ u18 then we won't be saving anything as we will have to pay to replace him, it just false economy which I find strange if we are as skint as we are reported to be. Sell him or loan with an obligation should be the only options the club should consider in my opinion.
{Ed025's Note - i agree sa, or swap for Adams if we really want him..
25 Aug 2023 10:17:18
Why wouldn't the PL sanction a 777 take over they haven't done anything illegal. The are no worse than some of the people that invest in football and had takeovers sanctioned.
27 Nov 2023 11:24:22
The ruling stated that due to an existing precedence in the EFL a PSR breech does confer a sporting advantage is gained. However, it does rule later on that it believed that Everton did not deliberately or cynically breach PSR rules for a sporting advantage, probably where the confusion is coming from.
27 Nov 2023 09:52:17
The ruling conferred that a sporting advantage was gained due to the overspend.
20 Nov 2023 21:32:00
When you say Shareholders you mean the owner right? As the board that got us into this mess don't actually work for the club anymore and therefore didn't provide any defense of their actions in getting us in this mess in the first place.
{Ed002's Note - I am not sure why all of this nonsense is being posted. Nobody seems to understand.}
20 Nov 2023 09:56:37
I don't think they will try to sue as it wold be very difficult to prove their case and would be very costly if they lost. Additionally if they where successful then the PL would have opened a can of worms so the may encourage clubs not to go down that road. Can you imagine every time a club gets a PL sanction for breaking a PSR all the other clubs hypothetically affected would then just sue the sanctioned club.
19 Nov 2023 19:24:12
why would we go into administration?
