KaKa Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Van Aanholt went for £14 million. We are screwed. No point buying from prem clubs anymore man. They will demand at least £20 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 We are standing there like Oliver with our pitiful wooden bowl asking for a little bit more and these premier league fat cats are just spitting in it.

toontownman Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 As if a) we bid that much for him and b) Everton reject it for a player that has played 7 times this year and clearly isn't in their plans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's any chance we're even looking for a striker. How could we attract a striker to make four when we only use one? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's any chance we're even looking for a striker. How could we attract a striker to make four when we only use one? Counting strikers we've already got four. Gayle, Mitrovic, Murphy and Perez. Then you've got Gouffran whose scored and won a penalty in the only game he's started up front this season and Diame who's scoring goals playing off the striker. Not fantastic options at the top level maybe, but I doubt any other championship side has anything comparable so yeah I agree, we won't be bringing in a striker. Next season is a different matter altogether. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ankles Bennett Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 It's fairly obvious we are saving our money for next summer in order to strengthen the side for life back in the EPL. Mccarthy and townsend are examples of players who have demonstrated they can cut it in the EPL so the club are happy to bring them in this January provided they are available for a reasonable fee. Judging by the round of Everton rejecting £16m it doesn't look like we will be able to agree a reasonable fee. If so Everton can keep him. He will prob run his contract down and go for free in a couple of years. It's sheer greed. £16m for a player who can't get in the first team. We may just have dodged a bullet if we miss out.p Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 McCarthy cost Everton something like £15m at the time didn't he? I thought he was over-priced then, but considering the transfer fees these days it's not surprising they are holding out. I doubt they are going to sell for much less.

We may just have dodged a bullet if we miss out.p McCarthy cost £13m 3.5years ago before the transfer market massively inflated. Any competent Premier League player is going to cost a minimum of £15m now. Just look at the daft money Palace are spending on mediocre players. McCarthy has actually played very well this season since getting his fitness back too. Previous two seasons he was pretty poor and we'd have probably snapped your hand off for £16m. Especially pre-takeover. I suspect £20m would get it done if McCarthy wants to leave. Otherwise, I think Koeman would be happy to keep him in the midfield rotation regardless of the sums offered. Premier League prices are crazy but the only solution is to buy from elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
