Twitter Transfer Rumours

[Makis 302]

I wouldn't be too surprised if the club was looking for a replacement for Schneiderlin. He hasn't exactly covered himself in glory this season. Dendoncker very much looks like a player who could replace him.

As he has started most games under Allardyce I would guess the opposite.

Another bloody midfielder, can we not sign a left back instead?

[Aidan 772]

Christ we need a LB and another Striker!

Siggy, Rooney, Klaassen are all number 10s and Vlasic I have seen also play there. 

That's potentially 4! And with Dowell doing well maybe next season he might get the chance to impress.

Not lately. But, he’s a very good player on the ball. He’s strong. His dribbling is wild. And he’s got a got shot on him.

I’m assuming he heads to Italy though. 

[Shukes 2,234]

Anyone, just anyone!

[Romey 1878 9,040]

A Twitter rumour needs to be started about Everton being able to pass the ball forward and attack. 

A rumour is all it could be. 

[Shukes 2,234]

Some people are saying we had a shot on target.... not sure how reliable the source is!

[yamar 98]

We are in desperate need of midfield with legs. We seriously need a n'zonzi type player. Also we need full backs with legs and finally some Spanish / south American / brazilian technical players who can open doors in the final third.... More than anything though, we need players who when getting the ball can guard that ball and wait for players to move up the pitch. Players who have the confidence to be able to this will make the world of difference.

I reckon there is about 100% chance of bullshit and 0% chance this happening.

They are looking to shift him out like, but I can’t see us being where he ends up. 

[sibdane 1,261]

He's decent for sure -- or at least he was showing glimpses of that before Barca. Don't see it happening though.

colombian left back plays for Boca Juniors.  Palace rumored to be in for him too.  27 years old.

that article has good info, not sure how reliable it is

[Sir McGiven 218]

Exactly what Everton needs, a left full back with attacking capabilities. If Everton signs him on summer transfer window and if he adapts during the pre-season, i think he can be successful. I am sure of one thing only, he is better than Cuco in any ways.

I meant good basic info, where from, age, position, matches played, etc basically facts.  As far as the he’s available, we can get him, he would be good for us. Not sure if any of that is true or reliable.

A 27-year from a South American league. What could go wrong?

He looks heavy especially in the arse but who knows he might be good.

Baines has a bit of an arse on him as well!

There's not a pick on baines that's why if he can stay fit he's got a couple more years left in him.

Saw this too -- he's a great player, but I don't think he's better than Coleman.

He would be a decent signing only if he was a left-back to replace Baines (because of his age obviously) but as you say, not better than Coleman.

[Makis 302]

Picked from Twitter, a very tenous link but Rubin Kazan forward Sardar Azmoun. Rumoured interest from Britain (not for the first time, mind). Former target of Brands & same nationality as Moshiri.

Not maybe one to get the pulse racing, though.

If we sold Schneiderlin for say £20m and replaced him with Ki for free then that’s good business as don’t see too much difference in quality and similar age. Don’t get me wrong, I want better than Ki moving forward but he’d be a very capable squad addition.

[Shukes 2,234]

Not much of an upgrade but a good solid player. Captain of his national side as well, so hopefully a good motivator for others.

I wouldn't disagree with that. Been a long time admirer of Ki. Nothing special but he is a really useful player and very good technically.

remember le tie? Got him on the Chang deal? I thought he was a clever footballer. I want better than this guy though. He will be a good signing for Moyes

To late, too old. I think he would be better off elsewhere.  I never thought I would be age-ist like this but I am because it is too late for him.

He’s 29 - unusually peak of career age. Resale value wouldn’t matter as he’s a free.

[Romey 1878 9,040]

I'd have had him here about 5 years ago, but not now. As far as I'm concerned Schneiderlin is a far better player than him. If he could continue to show his return to form then Ki shouldn't even be thought about.

I think it's evidence of just how far expectations have fallen that there a few on here would be happy to bring a player in that, at the absolute best, would help us to stand still. We need to move forward.

For me he is a player that is a bit like the glue for others to play. Look across the park, they had 3 average players in midfield bossing most teams. If you put Ki in he won' let you down, and that puts him ahead of most players in our team! 

I do agree that we need a lot better players generally but we need a good technical midfielder to sit deep and pull the strings and allow the better players to play then he is a good solid option.

[rubecula 826]

to be brutally honest mate we need top players not squad players we have enough of them for the time being.  (IMO)

No he wouldn’t let you down, and I’ve always been a fan of him, but my point is that we already have the much better player. A Morgan Schneiderlin playing like Morgan Schneiderlin pisses all over Ki in every department. So, for me, we’ve already moved on from the calibre of player that Ki is.

I would definitely keep Schneiderlin if he can continue playing like he has the last couple of games, but I also think Ki would be an excellent squad player/back-up on a free (if he would want that role). Currently, we just have Davies and Rooney who can fill in at CM -- both of whom I don't trust a lot at that position. Baningime isn'tt nearly ready yet.

And he’ll never be ready if he falls behind even being back-up. Why bother bringing in a 29 year old back-up and stunt the growth of Beni?

I see your point. Is Beni not another player who could use a loan though? He's been decent for us but very conservative.

I honestly think he’s too good for a loan move just based on the few appearances he’s had at this level. I think he’d learn and improve better by being here and getting cameos in the PL, the odd start in the league against (perceived) lesser opposition and in the cups (depending on who we draw, of course).

Thats open to debate in my opinion. I obviously dont know Ki as much as I know Schneiderlin but what we witnessed from the latter this season has been disgraceful at times. We have had a fair few players out of form but him and Williams have shown traits that I really dont like and wouldnt want in any of my team mates.

I wasn’t commenting on his attitude though, was I? I said he’s the better player. 

Again, I’ve always liked Ki as a player and actually wanted him here many years ago, but if we sold Schneiderlin and replaced him with Ki then we’d be taking a backward step imo. We need more quality, not less.

Attitude makes the player though doesn't it? I want a player that will work harder when we start losing not throw in the towel. 

Either way, I get what your saying even if it' wrong 😂

[mcirony 152]

Rumours flying around Silva will want William Carvalho when he becomes manager. Probably lazy journalism but I'd take Carvalho, Dost and Martins from Sporting for sure!

[Makis 302]

Has Martins improved immensely, because he was a bit shit a few years back. And Dost looks like a donkey. Plus allegedly he has a poor attitude. I'd look at Bruno Fernandes and their right wing, Gelson is also quite tasty (not sure we need a player for that position, tho).

[StevO 2,580]

Lots of people on twitter saying we are favourites to sign Ruben Loftus Cheek. I’d be made up, think he’s turning into the player we all hoped Ross Barkley would be.

Not sure how much I believe that. I also read another article where he's expected to be in Chelsea's first team plans this season, but I guess that depends on the whole manager situation though.
