Im not the only person with this opinion by the way...

Maybe the car with Belgian plates arriving at Finch Farm was Lukaku rather than Fellaini?

I'd rather we be in the business of adding players who will get us into European Football than in the business of making stock investments.

Still looking for it...
 
Actually shaking my head in disbelief.
 
If it doesn't happen I might start listening to Placebo, wear dark eye liner and sit in the corner humming whilst i lay a blade across my wrist.

Yeah. I kind of do. Really.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Stats Matches Goals Assists
 
Tom Ince 78 25 22
Zaha 126 13 22
 
That's a fair amount of assists and goals for someone who's decision making is woeful.....

Was a weird transfer when it happened. I still don't understand the Demba Ba transfer either.

Osman for Holtby is the obvious exchange.

Got to be honest, i think Martinez won't play Delofeu in the league until after our first win. Martinez is using (aparting from Barkley) pretty much the same squad and set up as Moyes, albeit with a different playing style. I think once we've won a game and have got the wind at our backs we'll see a lot mroe of him.
 
I 'd be hesistant to ask a 19 year old from a different league to come in and start winning us games right from the off. and regarding the season loan and he should be getting more games angle, I honetly think starting him above other players at Everton at the start of the season would send the wrong message to the players. He's not a mercenary we've hired to come in and win us the league title, he's a young player, still developing, who needs a guiding hand and a club that will give him the chance to grow. Growth does happen in spurts, but to ask for one of those after 2 games is a bit much.
 
Let him bed in, ideally with a game like stevenage tonight where he should be miles above the opposition in terms of pace and skill, and I'm sure we'll soon see him starting games, or at least getting 20-30 mins.

I bet 7-10m if Roma are reasonable. To be fair, I wouldn't accept 5m for him if I were Roma. I just don't know if a big club like Roma would let one of their starting 11 go on loan-to-buy move. It's not like he is a castaway at a giant club, or a superstar at a small club.
 
*edit- Funny that I've always rated him very highly, but it never seems he's gotten the attention/praise that Clint Dempsey, Landon Donovan, Tim Howard, and a few other Americans have. I think he's always been one of the best players in a USMNT shirt.

If he were English, he'd have a 20m pricetag and every Toffeetalk member drooling.

Wesley snipes from demolishion man coming on. Simon says score

Felli is going to headbutt the shit out of Olsson today.

Thats a bit harsh isnt it Haf. When he was here he was by far our most clinical attacking player and he probably still would be. I think his first spell here was over rated and his second was under rated.

I love how these stories work. I love how people get paid to write this bullshit. I love how wild speculation is made out to be something that's happening. Crazy. That said, I'll take £30 million!

I don't feel we should spend more than £10m on McCarthy, but this constant reference to him as a "championship player" is a little over the top. He performed well in the premier league and should be thought of accordingly. It's not as if he couldn't hack it.

Shirt looked great tonight even though we were shit.

I'm with you JQ. Bit far calling everyone twats like but he's an Evertonian and would give 100% every week. On low wages and a free why would anyone say no? He's had his problems but if he could keep a lid on it he would be a brilliant player. I actually wouldn't mind him being a loose cannon with other teams, we need a player the opposition are afraid of.

He would still be a quality addition to our squad I think. He still has a few good years left in him. Would love to see Sir Landon back here. It will probably never happen though.
