[Magma]

everton absolutely could

the jump in the new tv deal alone would pay for lukaku. it's all a matter of if big ken wants to do it or not. he's already got the barkley contract extension, they seal lukaku he'll be chaired down the streets of merseyside.

It appears Carlos Tevez's father has been transferred back to Tevez for a fee of $50,000.

Probably one of the better transfers this window. Good purchase by Tevez, value for money at $50,000. Keeps him in compliance with FFP as well.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Does Everton have 30 mil to spend on him?

I'd say our budget is low 30's but we still want to make another 2-3 signings after Lukaku so probably not. Wouldn't be opposed to signing Remy and spend the rest of the thirty mil on 4-5 players.

Fair enough. I thought it would be about your limit. Hopefully you can get it done

cruzeiro announce on their website that there is an agreement to sell fm favourite dede for 11.9 mil. if someone offers it.

An early line from the continent and De Telegraaf is reporting that Atletico Madrid have agreed a fee in the region of €2.5million (£2m) with PSV Eindhoven for teenager Zakaria Bakkali. The Belgian winger, who has recently been linked with Liverpool and Tottenham, now has to agree personal terms with Atletico.

Would be a top top signing and along with Griezmann, Atletico will still be super dangerous.

Good price for Bakkali.

Poor Carlos. This sort of family drama could scar him for life

 

[bok_party]

Good price for Bakkali.

Absolute steal for that kid!

 

[Cooldude]

There were some talks of us with Bakkali but never thought it was serious, would've liked him at that price

If he comes on Atletico will sell for 10 times that easily.

Origi has potential but Lukaku right now is the better player and prospect.

Atletico has gotten smart at the market, using the Costa and Luis money very well

And Origi looks a very good prospect, but he's raw and will need to put some more runs on the board. Different type of player to Lukaku anyway, hard to compare

Fair enough. I was talking bout value though. 10M V 30M

You are comparing the wrong value. Lukaku hasn't been sold for 30m. Compare the value to the price Chelsea bought him for.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Of course Origi could be a bargain, very talented youngster but for all we know might not be able to make the jump in class or handle the physicality of the premier league. Then it's 10M for nothing in comparison to 30M for a capable proven striker.

 

[SuperCats9]

Hate to say it, but I think Liverpool have signed a terrific prospect in Origi, I rate him, will be very good for them.

 

[Magma]

lukaku has the runs on the board so to speak, origi has 20 mins of a decent world cup

origi did look good though

 

[ilikepotatoes]

I did read that Scumberland (dammit NUFC Tiger ) were trying to offload him and they were adamant it wasn't to be a loan.

We've lost interest in Deeney apparently. Talk is an existing striker is going out on loan (I'm guessing Wood) and that we have one more striker coming in.

:O
Nooooooooo!

He's a big strong and quick lad, I think he'll be fine in England, but I'm more interested in his finishing. Gotta brush up that part of his game. It's the difference between being a Heskey or a Costa

He actually has a pretty poor goalscoring record but don't think he plays upfront in a lot of games.

Probably quite a chunk of that 10 mil will be performance based anyway so it shouldn't be much of a loss even if he doesn't work out

 

[Jatz]

:O
Nooooooooo!

Don't hold me to that. It would make the most sense if one of our strikers were to go out on loan. Vardy, Ulloa, Nugent are all first team regulars. Can't see any club wanting GTF (although they might I suppose). I'm just happy it's supposedly a loan and not a permanent.

apparently brom and southampton have made bids for biabiany

Hearing reports of a training ground bust up between 3 senior figures at Southampton. Unconfirmed at the moment. #SaintsFC #SFC

I'd suspect Morgan Schneiderlin's social media meltdown played a part in this fiasco. #SFC #SaintsFC

when it rains, it pours, and then it gets to whatever this is

@FootballJester: Southampton aren't exactly the first people to come back from a summer break to find their valuables were taken by someone from Liverpool.
