dlblue Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 I think we need to gid rid of some off the wage bill tbh. Just a hunch like but we have some utter shite on 50k plus a week who probably wont kick a ball competitively for us ever again. It's all well and good having money to buy players but the wage budget must come into play. I think you are right. Schneiderlin signed instantly once the Niasse loan was agreed. Depay will be on £100k per week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddock Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 I think you are right. Schneiderlin signed instantly once the Niasse loan was agreed. Depay will be on £100k per week. Exactly, the players we are bringing in now are going to be on, or close to 3 figures wage wise. We have the likes of Niasse, Gibson, Mcgeady, Cleverley, Kone to name but 5 who are probably on 50k each a week or there abouts. That's 200k a week. If you add 3 players on 100k that 500k a week in wagers and 5 of those aren't contributing. I've not explained this very well but you get the point - hopefully ? dlblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geri is probably one of those too, be interesting to see if he goes do we sign someone the next day. that will probably prove the point. Interesting with Depay that our interest has gone, epecially with Koeman saying he wanted him months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 It's all gone very quiet on the incomings front. Don't know whether to take that as a good sign or a bad sign. Gut says bad. Think we were looking at options and they've just not come to fruition. There is still time however but January is notoriously difficult to get player deals over the line.

markjazzbassist Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 I still think we need a Striker/Winger/attacker in this window. That one more player would make me ecstatic. As is with just lookman and Schneiderlin and some dead wood gone I'm happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Looking like it'll be deadline day if we do any more business, which is a little disappointing IMO. I'm not bothered to be honest, purely because I never want too much change too quickly. 1 solid signing in Schneiderlin, 1 promising striker and some of the non-playing staff have moved on. That's already a big improvement and, more importantly, a big change to the day to day life at FF. It'd be nice to get a "super star" signing but I think we're in good stead at the moment dlblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Out:- Niasse, Cleverley, Kone (fingers crossed) In:- Schneiderlin, Lookman, Tom Davies - lets face it he's like a new signing We need another striker - DCL is out, Lookman is a kid, Lukaku needs competition/support. If we lose James Mccarthy I would like the money to be spent on a wide player/number 10... options in Midfield are:- Barry, Schneiderlin, Davies, Barkley and Besic should be back before long. So yes - for me we need a striker in the form of a target man - link player. Plus more wide creativity as Gerry looks like he could be off, Lennon is more a defensive winger, Mirallas hopefully will hit form but is too hot and cold.

markjazzbassist Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 It looks to hinge on Gerry and Kone leaving, if so we replace if not then we can't bring more in. Makes sense we already have a lot of dross still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 15:43 KOEMAN ON TRANSFERS Everton boss Ronald Koeman, who has already signed Morgan Schneiderlin, has arrived for his press conference and has been talking about the transfer window. "I hope for more players coming in," said Koeman. "We are working hard to make the team stronger. But we are looking for quality, not just numbers. "The relationship with Steve Walsh is good. We talk daily about players and about scouting." markjazzbassist and aaron 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevO Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Just sounds like a good working relationship to me. Nothing surprising really. Be more shocked if it wasn't like that for two men at the top of their game being paid millions. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shy_Talk Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 You come up with the goods or your place is under pressure. That's the attitude for the 11 on the pitch, it's the attitude towards those in the office doing the business to secure that 11 on the pitch. Hats off for securing deals taking players not being played off to places they'll get games too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC11 Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) As soon as the doors slams shut on Gerry, I'll expect done movement. Not until then though! Always the same here. Edited January 23, 2017 by MC11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter H Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 Im fairly sure that we will sign at least one more. I think its positive that its gone quiet. Means that we have started to do business behind the scenes to keep pricing down. Spurs cant steal our potential targets if we shut up about them. dlblue, markjazzbassist and Matt 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlblue Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 I think we will have one more in this week, then a last min dash on TDD. I wouldnt be surprised for movement once Geri's transfer fully goes through. 3 off the wage bill this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 Really think we need another winger in after Gerry's move and Bolasie's injury. Of course we still need another striker and an ACM too, but a winger is priority now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) attacking mid/second striker/winger I think will be on the way now that Gerry is off. someone to rotate with barkley or mirallas. still a lot of time left in the window. 8 days to go.
