Popular Post Romey 1878 Posted August 15, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 Think back a couple of days ago to when it was reported that Harrison was fucking us off for Villa... there was absolutely no truth to it whatsoever. Do some of you learn from that? Nope, here you go again turning into fannies flapping about a whisper that another club are in for him despite there being nothing to suggest it's even true.

StevO Posted August 15, 2023 Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 Wouldn’t surprise me if Gnonto’s agent is saying other clubs are interested to get a response from Leeds, maybe to find out a figure they would accept from another club and then use it to get him to Everton. Agents are sneaky fuckers after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 It doesn't look like Leeds are going to buckle in selling him and without getting top top dollar. This is where I feel Everton do tend to go wrong - they seem to spend so much time chasing down particular transfers, and simply leave no time afterward to sort out alternatives. End up with none - or last minute sticking plaster signings. Tonsta 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boston Toffee Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 No idea who or what to believe but have to hope we aren't spending all day with just this player. The clock is ticking. If Leeds refuse the latest offer and keeps saying they aren't moving him, close the chapter here and move away.. can't keep up the circus with him until the last hour on deadline day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 Leeds really need to look at accepting. The price is already at a high level, he’s unlikely to be part of the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Tiger Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 I understand why there is so much skepticism around our transfer business given the last 5 or so years, but I actually think we've done a solid job this window especially considering our resources. We clearly really like Gnoto, but when it started dragging on we got Harrison on loan as cover not to mention Danjuma And with Danjuma we knew he could moonlight as a striker in worst case scenario, but weve also brought on Chermiti for the future and continue to look at first team quality options I'm actually quite pleased with how we've gone about our business this window. We're not going to get every target, but unlike in previous windows I feel like there are Plans A B and C Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chermiti will probably only play bit parts for now. we still need a striker a midfielder and a defender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 I think the few glimpses I had of Danjuma when he came on shown that he is capable of getting into our team and doing a good job. His first few touches showed that he wants to turn and go at the defence. Decent pace as well. Gnonto is another player that would be capable of dropping into the middle up front and giving us another option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post StevO Posted August 17, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 I have some mind blowing information here guys. Fresh off the press!! Its possible to pursue more than one player at a time. Just because we’re reading in the press about the Gnonto move it doesn’t mean we aren’t trying for various other players, like a striker. The reason it seems like all we are doing is going after Gnonto is because his people and our people are feeding it to the press to put pressure on Leeds. If this is news to absolutely anyone then you haven’t been following football long enough. dunlopp9987, Matt, Matt Tiger and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every window we get the same comments about how business is conducted as if it’s the first time anyone has ever been through a transfer period. Getting a Gnonto or similar would be the cherry on top but I think we’ve done quite well this window given our restraints. I reserve the right to change my mind if we lose Onana or something but absent that, I’m encouraged. Matt and Matt Tiger 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe they actually are trying their best? We aren’t exactly an attractive proposition coming off back to back relegation battles and with the FFP case hanging over us, not to mention the financial restrictions we are operating under So far I have been pleasantly surprised by the business we have done and if we get an established CF and Gnonto over the line without losing any of our big hitters it will have been an excellent window, even more so if we can shift a bit more dead wood Gnonto was always going to be a difficult deal to do since Leeds are clearly reluctant to sell and we equally clearly can’t afford to make them an offer they simply can’t refuse Matt, dunlopp9987, Romey 1878 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
