EFC-Paul Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Dowell needs to stay at Forest and sharpen his craft, he's doing well and getting better let him carry on doing so rather than throw him into a disjointed side in a tougher league Striker - Bas Dost fits the bill for me gets into good positions and puts himself about and wouldn't cost the earth LB - Ryan Sessegnon, although young he's been a regular for Fulham now and he's one that will get snatched up in the very near future, quick tricky and gets down the line and puts it into the box well, he's ready and good enough for the step up imo CB - Ben Mee, been brilliant this and last season and hasn't had the plaudits he's deserved tbh, has played with Keane before so the chemistry should be there With Yannick due back in the near future and Seamus I think we should have enough to get us by for the rest of the season and we don't want to make the same mistake twice by bringing in too many players so soon A good striker and a shored up back line should see us right we have plenty of options centrally and with Yannick Vlasic Lookman and Lennon as cover we should be OK Give Lennon a twelve month deal as I'm sure his runs out in Jan? Try to tie Ross down on a new deal Get shut of Kev Schneiderlin Cuco and Williams all have been piss poor and some with questionable attitudes Not sure why the fonts have changed 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've heard many a player say the same, money talks and the release clause isn't excessive in today's game especially for someone who can hit the onion bag Just one that I'd like anyway I just hope we do bring someone decent in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Don’t really care how much, so long as the right players are brought in. For the CB and striker I think we need, should be £50-70m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom half clubs are all capable of spending £30m or more each window so we need to be able to go to £60m, 70m, 80m to keep ahead of them. i guess it will stay at this level till the next TV contract and then it will increase again. pretty wild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Globally it doesn't have many more markets to penetrate and unless we see countries in Africa and the rest of Asia outside of China suddenly become filthy rich then that's going to be it. Honestly I just want the bubble to burst. I want Everton to get in a financially stable position and then the bubble to burst and send the likes of Man City and Chelsea plummeting into obscurity. Chelsea and Man City have successfully created sustainable clubs due to massive commercial revenue streams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original catalyst was owners injecting a ton of equity into the clubs but eventually they were able to create large commercial revenue streams through partnerships/sponsorships, etc..

Shukes Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 True mate. But give me a billion and I can pretty much guarantee I can turn it to three! they didn’t get there through hard work and determination, they were given it. Just like we were given Moshiris money. Which is why they are known as commercial clubs, and not their history! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newty82 Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 I think, Shukes, that Quinn is just saying that even if the bubble bursts tomorrow, these clubs now have the income to support themselves regardless of how they got here. I'm not too sure about that personally. I think the City model is better than Chelseas. Chelsea, I think, still would be at risk. As TallPaul says though, that bubble has to burst at some point. Or at least stop inflating at its current rate. But then I've been thinking this for years!!! Quinn31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Serious question, would everyone here be against going for Felliani in Januray? Or even after his contract is up in the Summer? Sort of a hypothetical, because I'm not sure if he wants more money than United are offering him and Im sure it's quite a lot more than we would bother to offer.

Shukes Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 I would take him back. Underrated player. Gives you a few different dimensions as well. Midfield enforcer or chuck him top when chasing a game. Good options. Quinn31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
