Disappointed about today, but in general not too bad a window, as we have definitely improved since end of last season. With Gana, Bolaisie, Stekelenberg and Williams all improvements on what we had, Valencia may also be decent and can't be worse than Kone or Niasse. And let's not forget our new manager and dof have only just arrived. Also think we have potentially dodged a bullet with Sissoko with the following comments from Paul Merson summing up the mercenary he is: "It's unreal he can't even answer Ronald Koeman's call. What's the game coming to? This man is a legend for what he's done in football and he can't even pick the phone up and say 'I don't really want to sign for you, sorry!'"

I think if the Pelle rumours are true??! Then we should go for Milik and Inaki Williams as well. Those three with Tarasah would give us plenty of options going forward.

Deal is done just as many have said he's back from hols next week and that's when he will be revealed. I like many are cynical and have had a few pangs of worry...but we are already far removed from Kenwright and the way he fanfares everything..!!! What I do like is the way we are now going about our business under Moshiri i.e. very little info leaked and only announce when it is done.

Also shocked by this !!...Always plays well when fit, but he rarely is. Maybe it's a pay as you play deal??? His contract was up later this year...it may also be a way of securing a small fee when he goes.

His ridiculous comments on Baines have given the perfect excuse for Bill to act, what an egotistical fool...........Sack Him Now!!!

Everton's players have "no chemistry" Worrying headline and Baines is the first player to really come out and highlight any problems! I feel that it infers there are some major issues in the dressing room and as many believe maybe Martinez has lost some players?. http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/evertons-players-no-chemistry-admits-11135217

Nay for me. if this was an isolated season I would give him the benefit of the doubt, unfortunately for him and us its the second successive season! I just cant believe what I am seeing at present as this is without doubt the best group of players we have had since the 80's and that alone make me want this fella gone and pronto. Who to bring in? A week ago I was struggling but since the investment I believe our stock will have risen making us an extremley attractive proposition for a lot of managers. My choice: De Boer or even Pellegrini the options are out there. Coyb

Totally agree these are my thoughts too.

Mark Hughes for me, doing a very good job at Stoke and he seems to have struck a good balance between defence and attack. Also if we got him he could bring Butland, Shawcross and Arnautovic across as well.

Ultimately the lure of first team football and the chance to play for the club he supports won out. He may go on to be a very good player but there is always a bit of extra pressure when you play for the club you support, so he could go either way. Ultimately I am not too disappointed as Seamus was always going to get his place back when fit and he may have thought he would be in the same situation as Garbutt. I would much rather us use the cash to go towards a forward or playmaker.

He hasn't decided yet and even though he supposedly supports the hammers, I still think he will sign for us.

Just watched MOTD and Mark Lawrenson just called Peinaar.....Penis!!!?? https://mobile.twitter.com/MStevo91/status/685972307089698816/video/1

Difficult one this as we might no be able to attract a real top class proven manager, saying that the premier league is seen as the place to be by many. With that in mind possibly De Boer ? On the home front Eddie Howe looks to be doing a great job at Bournemouth and plays in the right style or even someone like Karanka from Boro also Hasselbaink who seems to be well thought of although he is one for the future and has only just gone to QPR. Other than that it's fantasy land for the likes of Simeone
