Just teasing us no doubt, cruel bastards. I nearly choked on my dinner when I heard this one on SSN. If there is a God please let this be true. Not holding my breath though!

that deal would be awesome, but i'd be surprised if it happened

Please let this be true, if all else fails let this be the glimmer of light at the end of the dark tunnel - finally we are linked with someone who can put the ball into the net with having missed his previous 10 sitters!!

missed a penalty in the super cup ! :-)

This window's Negredo

Please let this be true! Massive fan of this lad and damn sight better than what we have now. Imagine gettin McCarthy, Lukaku and keeping both Baines and Felli. Wet dream territory considering how tight Uncle Bill's purse strings are.

I wish, Negredo is a great player...
Sean Patton

Exactly Daniel and Fernando is this window's Leroy Fer we all know it is McCarthy for Fellaini and nobody else in.

Anichebe is on his way to West Brom for £5m so it could be a goer!
Ed Fitzgerald
759 Posted 02/09/2013 at 19:48:06
It would be great to get him, but we are Everton so get ready for pain!
Kevin Day
760 Posted 02/09/2013 at 19:50:24
Fellaini staying I reckon, bookies would of closed the books on this by now.

i am getting really really nervous for the rest of the season. We have no real strength in depth and no goal scorer, unless you count the two clowns up front who are simply not good enough.

all the passing in the world is not going to matter for anything if some one can't put the ball in the back of the net on a regular weekly basis :p

Dean Adams
762 Posted 02/09/2013 at 19:52:16
Vic out and Ba and Lukaku in........if only!!
Simon Smith
764 Posted 02/09/2013 at 19:51:15
This has the juices flowing, I do hope this is a goer, Chelskis loss will be our gain if this comes true, just a shame we will not be able to play him against them due to the loan rules and all that
Peter Thistle
766 Posted 02/09/2013 at 19:54:03
Lukaku said at the end of last season he wants to stay at Chelsea and fight for a place, he isn't interested in a loan move anywhere. This is coming across as a desperate last ditch move that's doomed to fail.
Paul Corbett
767 Posted 02/09/2013 at 20:00:44
Lukaku in, Anichebe out.

That would be a dream

Mike Keating
772 Posted 02/09/2013 at 20:08:03
If Burtons still had a window I'd show my arse in it if this was true
I have a horrible feeling that this is yet another transfer window we will miss out on and Ballbag Billy is trying to make out he is doing something when he ain't
Why did Martinez waste half of the last day of the transfer window trying to get a work permit for player who never wanted to come?
Richard Lyon
775 Posted 02/09/2013 at 20:23:57
Lukaku would be awesome... please make this happen!
Craig Mills
777 Posted 02/09/2013 at 20:30:29
Not a hope in hell of this happening.........no way both Ba and Lukaku will be aloud to go out on loan
Jack Wilkinson
780 Posted 02/09/2013 at 20:42:12
Ba deal off apparently
Mark Eccles
785 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:01:25
Fellaini hands in transfer request... well, thank god for that; finally this will be all over. If he doesn't want to be here, then piss off!
Gary Carter
791 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:08:15
There will be no Fernando, Ba or Lukaku, hopefully no McCarthy and we will sell Fellaini and maybe Anichebe. Billy Liar will then say Fernando – work permit; Ba and Lukaku – Chelsea didn't want to do business and will deny even moving for McCarthy and we will bring in Barry, at Xmas we will lose Baines and bring in some other ageing has been for nothing.
Simon Hughes
793 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:12:33
Load of nonsense, the club is throwing around names to appease fans. End up Fellaini out and mccarthy in that's it. I can feel a 'sack the board' march coming up!
Callum McNab
795 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:24:29
McCarthy ain't coming, whelan on talksport,saying Kenwrong tried to do the deal for him over 4 years , absolute joke.
Stuart Eaton
799 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:34:00
Lukaku going to WBA now, we are doomed
Andreas Salomaa
800 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:34:04
He go to west brown!!! Fuck
Denis Richardson
802 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:33:27
OK now am getting very nervous! 90 minutes from the end of the window and f'all has happened. Why is Fellaini still and Everton player when Moyes first tried to sign him a month ago and he's always wanted to go?

Surely Fellaini wont be sold with no replacement?

Whays happened to the Barry loan transfer?

WTF is going on?

Chris Fisher
803 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:34:20
So as I understand things, we will sell Fellaini, & Anichebe, we will lose out on Lukaku & won't sign McCarthy because we want to pay over 4 YEARS?!! & we pretended to sign Fernando!!! We are a very very bad joke!! The fact that Lukaku wud rather go to West Fucking Brom rather than join us just about sums Everton up!!!!!
andrew jones
804 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:37:04
What is happening ! Fella going but can't see where we are spending? We need a striker or can't afford to let Vic go as good as £5m is! Come on BK splash the cash
Chris Fisher
808 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:41:37
I am so embarrassed of our club at the moment. We just make ourselves look like such a joke of a club! To offer to sign a player over a 4 year period is just disgusting. Imagine what we would be saying if Man United offer to but Fellaini over 4 years!!! Joke.
Tony Parsons
811 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:48:13
Most deals are done over 3 years, some over the duration of the contract.
Dave Weston
812 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:49:49
He's gone back to West Brom-So Fellaini and Vic out- in No fucker
Dave Weston
815 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:51:27
Our club is a massive fuckin joke. You could make a comedy out of the things that happen here
Lizzie Bowers
818 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:56:25
This is beyond a joke now. Everton fans — get a grip! We're getting the piss taken out of us. We've lost about 5 places in the league this season because of this... get your head out yer arses and do something about this board!!!
Chris Fisher
820 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:59:03
I need to relax!! I don't know what's going on and Sky Sports is fun to watch but not totally reliable! They said Lukaku was on his way to the West Brom training ground & then said actually he's in Belgium!!

The only thing that has pissed me off is letting that twat Whelan have another pop at us by making a stupid offer for McCarthy. Seriously blues, if you want him pay the money, don't make us look like dicks! It's the fans that have to deal with the ridicule from shithead fans at work!!!

Mike Keating
822 Posted 02/09/2013 at 21:57:06
At least I don't have to show my arse in Burtons window
How could Lukaku prefer the fuckin Baggies FFS?
That would have been fantastic for us
I am now prepared for a final hour of Transfer Deadline Misery
Dave Weston
825 Posted 02/09/2013 at 22:04:53
He knows the club he was there last season.....no medical needed etc.
Tom Magill
830 Posted 02/09/2013 at 22:13:59
I hope we sign someone soon... Lukaku would be amazing, but I'm not building my hopes up.
Dave Weston
832 Posted 02/09/2013 at 22:07:35
I wonder if Roy of the Rovers is still got some boots cos we've got more chance of getting him than anyone else
Tony Parsons
838 Posted 02/09/2013 at 22:26:09
Looks like lukaku could be still on according to Phil Mcnulty
Simon Davis
839 Posted 02/09/2013 at 22:21:37
Hoping and praying Lukaku goes to Baggies. He is not good enough!
Cannot strike a ball cleanly. Did you see his pen the other night!
Seriously concerned over RM judgement with over players. Kone and possibly McCarthy. God help us because RM will not.
Tony Parsons
840 Posted 02/09/2013 at 22:29:27
RM spoke to the player, apparently we're in the box seat now
Tom Magill
855 Posted 02/09/2013 at 22:45:25
Hope it's gonna be worth watching Sky Sports News for about 4 hours and not another big letdown...
Mike Keating
864 Posted 02/09/2013 at 22:58:25
Big Ben just struck 11
We seem to have got Barry
Possibly Lukaku on loan
Made an offer for McCarthy which Pegleg has accepted at 3 mins to go
What a joke
Tom Magill
883 Posted 02/09/2013 at 23:16:39
I'm delighted with Lukaku — he's a proven goalscorer, what we really need... and he might spur Jelavic on too.

In like Flynn, get in
Tom Magill
888 Posted 02/09/2013 at 23:21:23
I can sleep well tonight; a great finisher — and we kept Bainesy.
Tony Parsons
891 Posted 02/09/2013 at 23:23:19
Credit where credits due, BK has played a blinder, he's strung the mancs along, kept Baines and got top dollar (again) for Fellaini.
Derek Knox
892 Posted 02/09/2013 at 23:24:08
Have we managed to get Lukaku or not?
Ernie Baywood
898 Posted 02/09/2013 at 23:30:22
Lukaku tweeted that he has been loaned to us according to the beeb.
Peter Warren
902 Posted 02/09/2013 at 23:31:35
How tense frustrating exciting gutting and praying (that Anichebe deal went through) was that !!!!!!
Derek Knox
918 Posted 02/09/2013 at 23:35:05
If this is confirmed,it can only be good news, but I hope it has not hinged on anything to do with options on Ross!

Also, does it involve, not being allowed to play against Chelsea in League and Cup matches?

Still, no confirmation on Vic to WBA, I hope if it does go through, he doesn't start scoring goals regularly, and comes back to haunt us in our next game against them!

Ernie Baywood
935 Posted 02/09/2013 at 23:55:17
Definitely wont be allowed to play against us. That's the rule now since we colluded with Utd to throw a game.
Ernie Baywood
938 Posted 02/09/2013 at 23:57:06
Sorry - meant Chelsea!
Terry Murphy
031 Posted 03/09/2013 at 03:49:28
Jelavic – a fit Kone – Lukaku...
Who should start against Chelsea?

Mmmmmm, let me think??
Who would be the most motivated....?

Denis Richardson

Fantastic news.......Lukaku in for the season and we FINALLY get rid of Anichebe, 5m reasing to 6m - wtf! I never have to see that sulking knob in an Everton shirt again!

Fellaini gone for 27.5m when manu could have paid 23.5m before his clause expired - the same clause that OFM helped to insert! Hahahaha - I see the panic buying has spread to manu.

A certain Leighton Baines still at the club - get him a new extended contract asap, this lad should be playing his terstimonial 3-4 years time.

And we have Barry and MCarthy in as two new CMs.....could this mean that Osman finally gets a few games on the bench to rest and not have to start as much?

A great day for Everton fans, a great day in the transfer window and a big thankyou to RM - no more hoofball with Fellaini playing up front. I still cannot believe that Fellaini will be wearing a manu shirt - just doesn't seem like a Manu player to me.

Also a big thankyou to OFM - really showed his transfer 'nous' there!

So in total about 32.5m coming in and 13m going out for a net 19.5m up in one day (less loan fees for barry and lukaku). Mmm wonder what all OFM loving 'net spend' merchants have to say about that?

Heitinga still there but cant win them all - big Vic going more than makes up for it.

Let the season begin!

Terry Murphy, it doesnt matter because Lukaku wont be able to play against Chelsea because he is on loan from them, Chelsea's defence is so slow so it has got to be Kone as Jelavic sprinting is most peoples slow jog!

839 - Lukaku scored 17 goals in 20 starts for West Brom, and is going to easily be better than Benteke, there is a reason Chelsea signed him and after this season he will be a regular starter. So he took a poor penalty the other night! That means nothing! Baines took a poor penalty against Chelsea in the FA Cup a few years back that didnt suddenly make him not good enough for us did it?! Who would you of like us to sign?!

What a relief yesterday is over, made up MF has gone or the whole thing would start again for January.
Well done the the Chairman for getting all that money off OFM, desperation me thinks, and for refusing to sell Baines, you see he'll get a really good contract now, especially as we're picking up all of Barry's wages.

I think Martinez now has a good mix of youth and experience next we need to look at replacing in the next window some of our ageing defenders although Disitn is playing a blinder.

COYB!

Did you show your arse Mike? Yes hindsight is a wonderful thing but I did laugh reading the negative shite on here in the run-up to the deadline.Bobby played it all beautifully throughout I thought. Now just for a league win...
