Sima Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Neymar would compliment all of these Brazilians nicely. Would be a marquee signing too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Bowens one is bullshit. Why would the West Han board be shocked lol Paqueta is a must. Please do it ASAP. He is exactly the one we need to target a top 6 finish next season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRaspberryJam Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 I'd whitey if we signed Paqueta and Lodi. And I've never seen either of them play. It's just exciting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonpack Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) 45 minutes ago, RodneyCisse said: If we spend 53m on Paqueta, how will we get the Henderson deal over the line with just 7m of the 60m budget? What a player cost in total is not the amount of your budget that total figure accounts for, it’s what the player cost divided by length of contract (amortisation). So Paqueta for £50 million if on a 5 year contract takes up £10 mill of your budget. You could still buy 5 more £50 mill players within your £60 mill budget.

Is this how Edwards is working his figures out when reporting we only have a small budget to work with? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) I do believe bowen had a release clause in his contract when he 1st signed form hull. No idea if he's renewed since then but it was around 50m. We were also his preferred option but Ashley didn't meet the fee or wages.

KaKa Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 9 hours ago, The Prophet said: I'm a fan of Gray, arguably Everton's best player this season. Strange how we're being linked with left sided wingers though, when that's ASM and Fraser's starting position. A lot of them can play as a second striker/attacking midfielder too, which is the way Howe often used Josh King really successfully at Bournemouth. Think it's probably the same sort of idea.

It could be, although he has more recently said the "spend to be £60m at the low end and £100m at the top end" plus player sales. It's not totally inconceivable that we could spend £100-120m on three or four very good players, plus two more either on loan or as free transfers. None of this is contradictory with the general consensus of our budget and the number of players we are reportedly after (four to six). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
