Word is that Riise has now agreed personal terms with Roma.

Fee expected to be somewhere between 4-5m.

Hooray.

Everton are today closing in on the signing of Sporting Lisbon midfielder Miguel Veloso after months of speculation over the players future. Arsenal and Manchester United are also said to be interested but it it the Toffees who are now favourites to land the Portuguese international. (A Bola)

Portugese Newspaper or something apparently.

Can someone give me the lowdown on this fella please?

Can someone give me the lowdown on this fella please?

Too good for a club like Everton

 

[Bradesmaen]

Everton > West Ham

He's a defensive midfielder. I think the story is a load of bollocks, probably put out by his agent to push offers from the big 4, because if they offer, the agent gets more money.

 

[bus24]

I'm assuming if Man Utd. want him, as was reported a while back (I think) then they'll get him.

They have first option on Sporting Lisbon players don't they?

Can play at centre back too cant he?

Juding by the way you boled 'A Bola' you didn't think that he was the player did you?

I just quoted mate, no changing of text whatsoever!

Just very concerned by the lack of talk about who Everton may be signing

Yeah I bolded when I first posted it.

ALso, we have been getting a bit of talk, but theres only stupid things like Moutinho, Veloso etc that we have no chance because Moyes likes his "hard working" Lee Carsley style players from Britain instead of overseas. Such a lack of ambition from the club. When you play Phil Neville, Andy Johnson, Lee Carsley and Leon Osman in the same team you know your team is lacking ambition

Still plenty of time left though.

And last year the first thing that I'd heard of two of our signings were when we actually signed them.

Wouldn't worry just yet.

Until you find out they're Joey Barton and Alan Smith......

They'd both fit in well down at Everton.. wouldn't you agree?

 

[Norfolk & Clew]

No, our club plays in europe, probably best to leave them at the toon for regular game time...

 

[bus24]

They'd be signings that couldn't fit in better.

Would probably do well at a small club

Alan Smith has European experience

So does Carlton Cole. I was thinking the other day. Carlton Cole would be a seriously good CB

 

[ShearMagic9]

Even better.

Alan Smith has played in some big European games.

And Barton won't be getting too much regular game time at the moment I wouldn't have thought

Small club?? Please don't start me!!

Tony Hibbert has european experience... need i say more? Think we're after european quality (not experienced) players.

No way Veloso ends up at Everton. He's too highly sought after.

Why not? We're improving, we're just outside the top 4. If he wants to use it as a shop window he'd come here.

1. Do you have 18 million + 90k wages available

2. Hes off to Man United IMO. Can play LB too aswell from what ive seen

Yes, we do.

Allardyce

 

[Embers]

Yes, we do.

Good luck with that. I can just imagine Yakubu in the next team meeting

I agree, you are just outside the top 4, with virtually no chance of making the top 4. Why would he want to go to a shop window? That's what Sporting has been, he's shown what he can do now the big clubs are circling. Arsenal, Man Utd, AC Milan all interested, i'm sorry but he isn't choosing Everton.

"Interested" Thats about it so far. None of them have made anything more than a "Oh so thats who that is". We have no chance of breaking the top 4? What a laugh. You have no clue on Football whatsoever, straight to the ignore list.
