Luiz/McKennie swap being touted.
Really not sure about this one. Seems we lose more than we gain unless there is a significant cash adjustment in our favour.
What sort of value are we looking at? £15m, £20m, £25m, £30m or more?
Latest valuations online suggest €25m for McKennie and €60m for Luiz so £25-30m would seem to be cash value.

So allegedly some details have emerged of our shirt deal with adidas.
One detail is if we sell 300, 000 shirts we get an additional £7-8m.
If that's correct, I'm starting the cause, "buy a shirt support your club"!
At £75 a go that means we'll get 35% of the revenue.
Shirt is probably going to be £90+ though.
That will be too much for some.
Just hope they don't do something crass like a rainbow lion on the back .

You can see the games and injuries are catching up with us now. We can't expect the players to keep putting in the level of performances we've seen this season. We've played 46 games (I think) in the regular season and hopefully we'll have played 52 by the end of May with some silverware to show for it.
It's going to be tough and I think we might have to prioritise some games now.
Another 4 points might just be enough in the Prem to give us 4th place.
Martinez was out for Thursday anyway so good game time for Olsen.
UTV!

Does anyone think we'll make at least one more marquee signing, £35m+ before the season/deadline and if so, which position, defender, midfield, winger or forward?
Personally I'd like to see a quality defender, preferably central defence added.

I think it depends. If the rumours around Duran, Cash and Ramsey are true then I think we may make 3-4 big money signings. If not probably 1-2. For me the links with Hermoso seem to continue so it wouldn’t surprise me if he is the centre half Emery wants. After that I would want another forward plus an attacking midfielder.

I reckon we will think transfer record will be broke 3/4 players will come in
3.) 03 Jul 2024 22:57:39
Midfielder, rb, striker

I hope we have dodged a bullet regarding Gallagher. Absolutely useless. Would be a huge waste of money based on his performance tonight.
1.) 25 Jun 2024 22:17:07
It’s not Gallagher’s fault he’s a convenient scapegoat if you look at his performances over the season and other than Cole Palmer he was Chelsea’s most consistent performer, it’s the idiot whose in charge whose to blame. Southgate has no idea I have said before he is tactically inept.and a liability.
2.) 25 Jun 2024 23:19:12
30 odd good games this season and one crap one under Southgate. Let’s get rid of Ollie then ??
3.) 26 Jun 2024 05:24:32
I’ve pushed for Gallagher to Villa, I’ve changed my mind, going on what I’ve seen in the Euros, I think Sanitzer would do a good job for us, pedigree and experience ??♂️

The Athletic are reporting our PSR concerns have all but disappeared following recent transfer activity and we are now looking to invest. ??♂️

A few weeks ago Emery suggested we (Villa) have to be creative in the transfer market. I think we can see what he meant now.
20 Jun 2024 20:38:18
It seems to me England are missing something. Some flair. Someone to run with the ball. Pick up the odd freekick. Take the pressure off. Take the game to the opposition.
Any ideas?
1.) 20 Jun 2024 21:14:29
Grealish, i also think we miss rashford aswell with his pace
2.) 20 Jun 2024 21:14:30
Any ideas? No, Gareth hasn’t got one
3.) 20 Jun 2024 23:23:06
Grelish is no longer that player he is a pass backwards boy now.
4.) 20 Jun 2024 23:35:06
We need a left footer on the left
19 Jul 2024 18:33:57
@Nebu if Mings returns the player he was before his injury, I agree, but it is an unknown at this stage. Not saying we should buy just in case but we might have to if he struggles in pre-season if he even features?
19 Jul 2024 18:30:37
Certainly appears like he has honoured his obligation with us.
Let’s hope he’s the player we all want him to be now. Not many Everton fans seem too upset about him leaving, certainly not for the fee we’ve paid.
16 Jul 2024 17:40:28
Think he’s going. Will be c£50m plus add ons in my opinion.
Will open up the opportunity for more signings but which position needs strengthening? Forward? Central Defender?
22 Jun 2024 18:21:21
Not part of the same deal. Desperate for the eyes of the world. But it is creative accounting to avoid PSR punishment.
19 Jun 2024 20:39:55
Or could it be related to the Duran deal in the opposite direction, similar fees been mentioned?
If that deal is still on?
22 Jun 2024 18:22:33
It’s creative accounting to get around PSR.
Absolute joke.
20 Jun 2024 20:36:12
Rice puts in another poor performance against Slovenia (if picked) runs the risk of becoming a scapegoat for England’s under achievers.
17 Jun 2024 19:36:22
“He played selfless football” is the quote that really made me laugh.
In other words he didn’t contribute. Watkins it Toney should have come on.
Still pick him in starting XI, for now. He’d get into almost every other nation’s team.
17 Jun 2024 19:33:13
To be fair he is a very good player. Taking off your claret and blue shades for a moment, surely you can see that?
12 Jun 2024 18:19:41
Cheers Eds for your reply.
It’s a fine line for many of these clubs, particularly ones trying to break into Top 4 or 6. Also tough for newly promoted clubs.
