jmurph Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 (edited) Everton finally look set to land Manuel Fernandes from Valencia for £6million. The Portuguese ace has been told he can leave the Spanish club by new boss Unai Emery, having spent most of last season on loan at the Blues. Goodison chief David Moyes has been desperate to sign the 22-year-old midfielder for two seasons and is in talks with Valencia about bringing him in on a permanent basis. Moyes tried to sign Fernandes when the player left Benfica a year ago, but thought his £10m price tag was too high. At the cut-down price, Valencia have told Everton the deal must be done by June 20 and Moyes is confident he has finally snared his man. (sorry i couldnt do the Italic lol) Just Seen This in The People.... What Do You All Think? Edited June 15, 2008 by Murphy the Blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 That would be a fantastic signing and a great price. Hopefully the first of a few midfielders coming in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiffa Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 Be a good signing on the grounds of his last 2 or 3 performances but part from that he was wasnt very good in his second loan spell. Also he is ment to be very lazy in training but i wouldnt mind singing him just hope he performs like he did in his first loan spell.

carlmc25 Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 £6m is a good price, I wouldn't pay any more than that for him as he has only shown ability in glimpses. I'd be happy if Moyes pulls this one off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxy051 Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 This would be a great signing an at that price id grab him with both hands put him in me suit case an head on home 2 Goodison imo its a steel half price from what Valencia's paid only last season. Yes he didn't have the same effect that he had the first time around but i think with him knowing where his future is and playing regular first team football the lad will become a legend. The talents definitely there and on form can be the best player on the park by a mile so i say Yes get him signed an give him his chance.

scouse Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 6 mill is a great price for him, he would add much need quality to our midfield better addition than Huddlestone IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herefordblue Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 Would be Delighted if we could get hold of Fernandes for £6million, would be brilliant Business. Hopefully the first of many positive new arrivals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 It's time for manny to pay us back for last summer and send a come and get me plea to moyes - £6m is a fair deal in my opinion. Certainly not £12m as first thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevO Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 another loan will do me, get him on 12 months, if hes still looking good by march/april then strike a permemant deal, a la pienaar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everton_Worshiper Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 loan yes, £6m no IMO Has done nothing to justify even £6m (and I still stand by this), would rather have had unproven Ramsey than Fernandes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Boy Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 Not sure I would say no to a permanent deal, but agree that another loan period like Pienaars would be good. Be good to have him for the full year, get him through our pre season schedule and see what he can offer us then. £6m for a young International is a good price, and as we all know, he has plenty of ability, think he needs a run of games, and fitness as toward the end of last year, he started showing how good he is. Would love him here! Better than what we have there now, so would be an improvement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J*A*C*K*E*L*Z Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 hope its true! Jake will be estatic hahaha haha to right lad id be all smiles if we baged manny loan...... 6 million....26 million..... makes no differance too me aslong as he is in an everton shirt next season im very happy p.s- Im well aware I like fernandes alot more than I should Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToffeeFan Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 loan yes, £6m no IMO Has done nothing to justify even £6m (and I still stand by this), would rather have had unproven Ramsey than Fernandes. I honestly can't believe this, you wouldn't have a player of his talent for £6m Players like Chopra and Barton are going for that price. Has done nothing to prove hes worth that? What about his first loan spell? Moyes was willing to pay £12m for him. It would be a huge mistake if we didn't sign him for that price and I'm sure if his price is only £6m then we will see him in a blue shirt next year because Moyes knows the talent he has Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 Im well aware I like fernandes alot more than I should Is this the first "coming out" live on TT ?? I think we should be told . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Berno Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 Is this the first "coming out" live on TT ?? I think we should be told . Lol . Great bit of business if we pull this of am not bothered if we get him on loan or buy him as someone said before as long as hes in a Everton shirt thats fine!

Look at him as an asset, he has devalued by 50%, is no longer in demand and his last public appearance was a disappointment. If he is such a talent, why aren't we fighting other clubs off to sign him? Why was he not signed when his loan agreement concluded? Why is he now wort £6m when he was worth £12m a year ago? I like the fact you did not mention last season in your justification for him, instead you rely on form from 2 seasons ago. Sorry, in my opinion I would not have him. In yours you would....

Jonny Z Cars Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 we're lacking in depth. last 10 games are very winnable. we need to be winning them and be able to rest players and be assured of a good team with the players we have to come in. we have lost a midfielder already, and we were seriously short of players last year. which means at this current stage we are desperatelt short. the maths dont add up. so with that reason, any player coming in is a good buy. cos i can see us letting it go right down to the last day before we buy players. and for a team consistently knocking at the big table, it isnt good enough.
