markjazzbassist Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 I said at the time we missed a trick Mark it was only about £2m I think they paid? All the talk was if Ince at the time and Redmond was more lowkey shame really yeah i remember a lot of us here wanted him, but he will demand quite the fee now.

Quinn31 Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 we missed a real gem when norwich got relegated, redmond has turned into quite the player. Him and Leroy Fer. Maybe a few others in that squad as squad players too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Fer wouldn't have improved us bar the body count. Dodged a bullet when we didn't sign him for me. Average. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 It's Fer to say he loves a good relegation battle As a child, he was known for using big letters. His teacher had to tell him to use a "little lower font, Leroy." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quinn31 Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Fair point. Funnily enough, Vadis Odjidja-Ofoe is now at Norwich, but was injured for most of last year. Remember him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddock Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) REALLY starting to get the vibe that all our business this summer is hinging on Stones going. The nearer he seems to be going the closer we get to doing deals. If he gets sold for say 35 million and we spend say 28 Everton fans will absolutely melt down and the current board will be ran out of town. I lnow I've said this before but I'm really starting to get that feeling now that these players linked are coming so late because we've been playing hardball with Stones. If we are minus for our net spend this window there will be fucking girders i guarantee it. Edited August 18, 2015 by Paddock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 No doubt about it Pad. If Stones goes, I expect his full fee plus more on top to be spent. Or shit hits the fan. After paying off a chunk of debt last year, knowing we have more coming in from TV and hearing all summer that we are not a selling club...there really seems to be no excuse, or reason if you like, to spend less than we sell. I can accept that every player has a price. No problem with that. That's just business. But please, no more bullshit! Incidentally, I don't agree with the links comment you make. That just seems to be the way we do it. We seem quite good at keeping our targets under wrap and then pulling if off when we are ready. Which tends to be late for what ever reason.

Romey 1878 Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 I'd put money on it right now that if we sell Stones we don't spend what we get for him, never mind more than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Ye me too. It's too late in the window to he able to spend the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Ye me too. It's too late in the window to he able to spend the money. Even if it was earlier in the window we still wouldn't. The one we missed was Andrew Robertson the left back £3m ideal player to replace baines. Martinez must be kicking himself now. Doubt it. We have Garbutt, he's an ideal replacement for Baines.

Romey 1878 Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Martinez says we're working on a couple of signings, but doesn't want to mention names. I hope you're looking to be making another signing too, you big flip-flop you! EFC-Paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 The echo thinks Mori,yarmolenko and a striker. That would be sexual chocolate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC-Paul Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 The echo thinks Mori,yarmolenko and a striker. That would be sexual chocolate! I'd actually be amazed if we didn't let anyone of any note go and ended up with Delafaou Cleverley Mori Yarmolenko and a decent striker plus Henen and Holgate as future hopefuls and key players tied to new contracts I'd say that's potentially one of if not the best transfer window I can remember, if true who the forward could be is anyone's guess as Austin will likely stay down south as he's apparently stated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 I doubt at this point that the striker will be Austin. My guess would be a loan deal from Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Yes I agree can't see us spending big on Austin. Maybe that young lad at ac Milan niang? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoof_It_Nev Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 I just can't see us signing another striker. Martinez likes to keep faith in players and technically we're not really short in that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddock Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Yarmalenko can play up front as well I think so I think that's our 10 and striker in 1 go, Mori is the cb but I've noticed Martinez has gone back to saying a coupe. I agree with Paul here. IF we don't lose Stones and keep all our other names and sign Geri, Cleverley, Mori, Yarmalenko and a another plus Hennen and Holgate that would be an absolutely belting window. That would be 5 in and 0 out plus a couple of hot prospects. Surely it's not going to be that good is it? This is Everton after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Personally I'd be happy with Yarmolenko and the centre half. Obviously the more the better but we can't have it all our own way. Still think we'll lose Stones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think we'll lose Stones Tbf if someone would have said before the window opened we would sign Geri, Cleverley, Yarmalenko and a back up cb, Mirallas and McCarthy sign new deals and keep the whole squad together I'd of bitten their hand off for it so if that is all we should be happy with that. Think you're right about Stones though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 If stones goes what happens then? Obviously our defence would be weaker so I think we spend big on another quality striker and go for the Kevin Keenan style of football that we will just out score you? If he goes then can van djyk is the obvious replacement at the back. If he goes to Chelsea I'd be definitely getting a loan back out of their a million players.

Matt Posted August 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 From Burnley to Barcelona, whose young playmaker Alen Halilovic will spend the season on loan at Sporting Gijon. Can't find the thread... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyblue23 Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 I just can't see us signing another striker.

Fuck knows mate supposedly the lad from Inter. One thing for sure though is if we do sell him Jags will have a brand new to the club partner who is going to need time to bed in but wont get it as he'll be lashed in at the deep end.

Romey 1878 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 If this Rodrigues is the second of the three then the third really does need to be a special signing. Quinn31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
