Transfers, 2024-25 season

The mail confirmed the Chelsea offering Tosin a contract story, but they also said that we're still the favourites and are confident of getting the contract signed. That's the shite thing about transfer windows, we have to wait in this limbo until the 14th of June until any deal can become official, which obviously gives other clubs the opportunity to get in Tosin and Kelly's ears.

I love our fans :lol: 

 

Cleanest windows in the country, so long as they brushed their teeth after their coco pops.

Apparently he was well impressed by Howe and the ambition of the club in the next couple of seasons so fingers crossed that’s more appealing than a slightly bigger wage packet and playing for 3 different managers a season

Honestly anyone who goes to Chelsea must be going for non-footballing reasons because it's clearly a club run by a complete basketcase who doesn't have a clue let alone a plan. Which, for me, means that having Chelsea after the same players as us is a blessing as it's a kind of inadvertent filtering process to identify the types of personalities we don't want in the dressing room. If Tosin chooses Chelsea then fair play to him. He gets a pay day. And we avoid signing a character who lacks the requisite level of ambition that we're after.

 

All that said, it's possibly the case that Chelsea are simply trying to drive up Tosin's wages and agent fee by feigning interest. But, then again, that would be a demonstration of a plan and some level of common sense, so I guess it's unlikely. :lol:

Everton want Kalvin Phillips after that loan move :lol:

He was at the play off final on Sunday.  All the Leeds fans begging him to go back.  Think Championship is his level.

At least for a season to build his confidence/fitness and prove he can still do a job. Everton may well see their luck run out next season with Southampton and Leicester not exactly being pushovers, so joining them may see him getting championship football soon enough :lol:

Sure we've been saying that for the last 3-4 seasons. They stink the league out for 90% of the season and then grind results out when they need it. We really need them to go down and go into financial ruin and cease to exist as a football club, never to be seen again.

I think Everton are on the same course that Sunderland were on. 

 

The longer they took to go down, the worse it was and caused the next relegation. 

 

In many respects, I think we were lucky to be relegated when we were as it did us a few favours e.g. getting rid of the likes of Owen.

It's always the fucking accountants

I haven't banged the drum forever in my defence though :lol: I expected them to stay up this season because the quality of the teams promoted were pure shite. Got a bit more hopeful with the points deduction for a spell though. However, the luck has to run out at some point, and Southampton and Leicester have squads good enough to survive IMO, which takes the safety net away at least.

Fuck off with your "we've", Gemmill is the word you were looking for.

I simply point out your Everton obsession, for what it's worth, I hope you are right (one of these decades)

Everton are like a game of Frogger, everything is aligned for them to be smeared across the tarmac, but somehow they make it through.

Because most seasons there are three teams promoted that are shitter than them, as well as one or two that survived that are equally as shit as them who have had less luck in terms of decisions or injuries.

 

This season one of the teams coming up is better than them, the other is on equal footing IMO and Ipswich is a bit of a wild card but they seem pretty resilient. Everton are really relying on Wolves to stay in a state of financial ruin (and/or lose their manager to someone better), Forest to be equally as shit as this season (and also in financial ruin due to FFP), and one of Ipswich or Southampton to have a worse start to the season than them.

 

They have it much harder this season than they did last. If they end up on the wrong side of FFP again or they make a shit start then I don't the league table will be as kind to them next season.

 

That said, it's Everton and they could luck themselves to safety just as easy it they could fuck themselves early and often.
