Topic: Has Klopp ever won the Greek league? Hi Ho Silva Daddy Day Care Fighting

[PeterTheRed ...]

Everyday I look on the BBC gossip page.  Apart from the stories about stones their is never even any made up bullshit about them signing anyone

Media conspiracy.

[Ken-Obi]

Media conspiracy.

You're telling me it's not because they are not up to contender standards? Absurd.

[Something Worse]

This is normal, the Moshiri money was born in the dark, molded by it.

[Red Beret]

This is normal, the Moshiri money was born in the dark, molded by it.

So was Everton's bitterness and failure.

[only6times]

You kept banging on about Moshiri's billions
It looks like you're signing old Ashley Williams

Oh Everton, Everton
we're all laughing at you...

[Something Worse]

So was Everton's bitterness and failure.

That's because Mr Houlding shut the lights off for non-payment of rent.

[Red Beret]

I'm still trying to get my head around why Everton would pay so much for Ashley Williams when we got Ragnar Klavan for £4m?  He's younger and arguably a superior player.

There's good deals to be had out there for Everton if they're only prepared to look.

[redforlife]

Can you imagine the abuse that would be levelled at Kenwright if there'd been no investment and they were having the summer they're currently having in terms of transfers?

Yet, because Moshiri has invested a few quid and The Esk has convinced them all that there's lots of statements of intent, they're riding along into the abyss quite happily believing Friday is the day!

The seem happy that at least now they're getting rejected by a better class of player.

[Red-Soldier]

Do you think Koeman was hoodwinked by the 'Moshiri billions'??

I know he's probably on higher wages but it seems a strange move taking recent league positions into account.

[AlphaDelta]

It seems a long time ago (when in reality it was a few weeks) when they genuinely believed they were signing Messi. Banging on about all the money they were gonna spunk about, how they can now class themselves amongst the 'elite' and 'big spenders' in the league, and best of all - how we were now in their shadow.

Well my blue neighbours, we are still waiting..... 

[only6times]

Kenwright will be like me in the 80's, waiting for my giro to drop through the letterbox except he is waiting for the telly money.

[Ziltoid]

So after catching up from Friday it's safe to say the general consensus from Everton fans is

[DeLeiva]

[DonkeyWan]

Hmmm, so the latest logic being put about by ESK is that Everton are so constrained by FFP that they have to sell Lukaku and Stones to increase the wage allowance.

https://www.grandoldteam.com/2016/06/22/everton-summer-transfers-short-term-cost-control-regulations/

So, for example;

Sell 2 players for £110m who earn £10m in wages

Buy 6 players for £90m and increase wages by £30m

So, the transfers won't start until Stones and Lukaku leave.

Ignoring the usual sell-to-buy bit, the enormous increase in  wages can hardly help revenue (unless the six players are considered replacements for Stones, Lukaku plus those who are already gone, which means Everton are just squad replacing, not squad building).

[BeautifulGame91]

There is no FTP in reality .It's just an excuse used by BS owners to not spend any money on transfers.

[DeLeiva]

Surely with their billions they'd just pay the fine.

Caveats.

From the thread asking why nobody signs for them - RS INFILTRATION??

Player Valuation: £100k
New
Players don't want to play in a wooden shed that's full of boos & hasn't won anything in decades. That's selling their best players. Only sells out a couple games a season despite the 'we go the game, that's what we do', and are all born not manufactured and are all from the Liverpool area as they're the Peolpes Club. They were even giving free season tickets with mobile phone contacts not that long back. Can't afford a full one? Just get a half one at Xmas.
On the upside if players do come here. It's really easy to become an Everton Legend, a bad tackle in a Derby or even score in one will instantly turn them into Legends. If this team actually wins a Derby they'll have the freedom of the City. They might even get a big mural of themselves on the side on Woodison for finishing 5th. Solo le mejor ha.
Walking past that Legends shop in town which sells framed sport and music pictures. In the window the Liverpool pictures are of captains holding the European Cup, the FA Cup the Everton one, Duncan Ferguson snarling at Sami Hypia whos lying on the floor, presumably after being elbowed by him.
That's what makes an Everton legend.
Ferguson's Games Played and Goals Scored record for Everton is about the same as Emile Heskey's for Liverpool. Needless to say, Heskey's medal collection laughs at Ferguson's. Heskey even scored more Derby goals than Drunken. Heskey isnt considered a Liverpool Legend.
Nothing will be the same.

Forgetting that relatively big earners such as Howard and Pienaar have left and the fact that you are allowed to increase your wage bill by £7 million a year anyway.

But they were ahead of us after the first 10 games last season.

[pyroparty]

All their excuses coming out are hilarious, they can't just admit they're a nothing club who no one wants to join. There's like 8 better options for players in this league alone (and im being generous to the blues there) let alone around the world.

The only possibility of their dream big signing is someone desperate wanting a pay day on August 31st with no other options. And as a result will play shit because he doesn't want to be there!

[Kop 81]

Was just going to post the same pyro.

Their constant excuses are hilarious!

I SWEAR a few weeks ago they blamed the terrorist attacks in Paris on why they were not announcing Mata and Witsel.  They're sick in the head.

[Andy @ Allerton!]

They are linked to Fonte now.

[Banquo's Ghost]

Did they not pay the broadband bill?

The "where is the ______ , Bill?" quotes make me laugh every time

They're just doing what they do every year.

They drip feed rumours to the press, about making enquiries for player A, B, and C.   All big names that the fans lap up.


Weeks go on, and they drip feed a few more big names, rinse and repeat.



Come the end of the transfer window, A,B, and C, are long forgotten about, as in desperation they announce the signing of X,Y, and Z.

Bill looks on all wistful in front of the cameras, and spouts the usual shite about, "well, we tried to sign A,B, and C, and that shows our ambition, blah, blah, blah".


How they haven't seen through this annual charade yet, baffles me.

they've got about as much ambition as Rab C Nesbitt

Don't ever compare Rab with that shower of shite.

It will be funny to see them held to ransom this month like they have done to other clubs over the years.

It used to be the obligatory Brazilian just before the season/half season tickets deadline. the Echo would feel obliged to report it and then it would go tits up on medical grounds or some such- or worse still the would sign one (Jo?) who would end up moving on

[redforlife]

Bidding £12m for Shearer the day he signed for Newcastle for £15m was a particular highlight.

Pretty sure they did similar with Alan Smith the day he signed for the Mancs too.

Yes false bids again.
