Deuce Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Everton are just looking at the market and setting the price accordingly...in that regard, 25mil isn't really that unreasonable. The way to get these prices to drop is for clubs to stop paying them. Which is difficult when the likes of City and Chelsea have no problem dropping 25mil on bench players.

The way to get these prices to drop is for clubs to stop paying them. Simple as that. Not really simple though. Clubs are under a lot of pressure to ensure they stay in the Premiership. Once one club starts paying, that pressure ramps up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once one club starts paying, that pressure ramps up. I'm sure Evertons survival hopes hinge on selling McCarthy for upwards of £20mil, like. Your point works for Siggy at Swansea, but this however.

KaKa Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Gibbs £12m to West Brom according to Jim White Now this is completely unacceptable. That is a transfer we absolutely have to be all over. Arsenal are always so reasonable with their prices man. For goodness sake. Why on earth he would go to cruddy West Brom is beyond me. We all know by September Pulis will be playing centre backs at full back as he has always done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Guess the only consolation is that he'll be injured 50% of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happinesstan Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 How the f*** can you justify a £25m price tag for someone who clearly isn't first choice, having played 12 games last season. Bloody mental. Because he's under contract, they can justify what ever they like. They can ask, even demand, whatever they like for a contracted player but justify it ? Surely it's the team spending it that need to justify it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mighty__mag Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I wouldnt walk just because im struggling to sign average underrated players for 25m. Its a joke, I dont see the point in signing players for the sake of it. Obviously we need players, but if you get priced out of the market you just dig in together and do what other sides have had to do before us, Burnley, Bournemouth, Leicester. Think we need to move away from the english market its ridiculous. PSV managed to land Hirving Lozano for 8m beating off competition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 McCarthy for £25m(not that he'll go for that) is worse value than Sissoko for £30m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 McCarthy for £25m(not that he'll go for that) is worse value than Sissoko for £30m Is he not that good then? Never really took much notice of him, just wondering why we seem to be pursuing him for a while now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, surprised we haven't had more links with the Spain and beyond under Rafa. I know the vast majority of links are the press making shit up, but was hoping he'd be using his contacts with Real etc. to get us some quality possibly overlooked by the rest of the league. As it stands, our buys have been underwhelming, and the players we've been linked with have been equally uninspiring or just Prem kids on loan. It's ummm, all a bit weird.
