  • @136 If by wherewith-all you mean if we could afford to. Then yes, the fees paid for Barry, Dibling and Anzou covers this fee. No doubt their combined wage is more than Woltemade will be earning. So yes. We could’ve afforded it. As for him choosing Newcastle ahead of us. It’s precisely the reason why back in May I specifically said we should sign him and do this business early. Newcastle signing him was entirely conditional on them selling Isak. Something that didn’t happen until late in the window. As for the 3 players mentioned. I will confidently say Anzou and Barry will never make premier league players. I’d go as far to say that Barry is one of the worst strikers that I have ever seen play for Everton. Dibling, I don’t know. I saw promise at Southampton but Moyes won’t pick him. And it’s because he doesn’t think he’s good enough...
    Tommy Carter in Two chances for Beto... two chances for Haaland; No contest
  • Exactly, Dave. Two goalkeepers on the bench is utterly ludicrous. Saying it doesn't matter is smug and pointlessly defending the indefensible....
    Andy Crooks in Two chances for Beto... two chances for Haaland; No contest
  • Ok Robert. Stick him on the bench, get him a loan move, and then sell him for £7.5m. Thats about £7.5m more than we'd get for Tom King. If we don't have faith to put him on the bench, why would another club pay decent money for players we don't want? We all know that the academy either needs to produce players or produce cash to fund incoming. It's the Premier league model these days....

  • Robert (135) Robert Braiden Graham was playing in a man’s league at 15 years of age, that’s how he got to Everton and it wasn’t long before he was training with the first team, you’ve seen the Academy teams — they are not very good— it doesn’t mean every player isn’t very good, one of these days Everton are going to be leading 2 or 3 nil, like against Wolves and Leicester last season, under Dyche and Moyes, if they have a Graham or Benjamin on the bench he might get a call— I don’t think they will be bringing a veteran goalkeeper on in the same position....

  • I saw that too Mike re 777, Josh Wander et al. Moshiri ( and / or his backers) would have sold us to this bunch. We’d be sunk. Only the PL ‘ financially fit and proper’ rules prevented this happening. We also allowed them to finance our operations for several months before TFG quickly cleared this debt. I hope we are well clear of any linkage to this bunch of crooks. ...
    Ian Wilkins in “The first chance, we’re studs away from a goal” - David Moyes after defeat to Man City
  • Ian, Tom Cannon played 4 times / 33 minutes for Everton and never scored. His price tag was entirely dictated by his performance on loan for Stoke and Preston. Simms played 12 times for Everton (but only after completing 3 loans). He scored once. Again, it was essentially his performances on loan at Blackpool Hearts and Sunderland that drove the price. Significantly, Cannon and Simms earned the loans that made them through strong performance at u18 and u21 level. That's exactly what Graham and Benjamin need to do - just as Sherif is doing now. ...
