Hey blues, So after a crackin start to the season what is everyones prediction for the campaign to come. Personally pre season would have been happy with top 8 but now think it is a real possibility we will reach the CL, i mean arsenal, the RS and spuds all goin backwardsn the door is wide open, or am i just gettin carried away
Thoughts?

Not too sure about Arsenal going backwards, but losing RVP and Song is a massive loss for them. Dont think spurs will be as good as they have been and the RS could well struggle this season. I dont think Newcastle will be asgood this season either.

I'd say 5th, although I do have a fiver on us making top 4

TJ

Agree0 Disagree0

Not getting carried away, we have had 2 good matches and that's it. It's nice to have thIs to talk about at the start of the season instead of the doom and gloom. We've a good team now. Let's take it step by step
Dave M

Agree1 Disagree0

Think we could be looking at top four if the squad stays fit and we don't sell anybody follow follow follow

Agree0 Disagree0

Top 4 a real possibility if moyesey brings on 2 more this week. Get Niang in- will be a top player in the future, add Thomas Ince to the squad to add competition and pace in the final third and I would personally sell heitinga and bring in a young up and coming centre back.

Agree0 Disagree0

A tad mate, but a great start! Just stay as consistent as possible like Newcastle last year. They went into the last game with a chance of CL! Nail that top 6 first though!

Agree1 Disagree1

I reckon it's possible, here's hoping!

Bobcat

Agree1 Disagree1

No you are not....This IS the season... its make or break...

Agree0 Disagree0

I dont think top 4 unfortunately. weve had a cracking start which weve always wanted to see but lets not get carried away, its only been 2 matches (although damn tough ones in my opinion) as moyes said, check whats going on after 10 games have been played. lets not get all optimistic and dissapointed if it doesnt happen, just game by games is the way to go! i hate sounding negative about us but just think its too early yet to get carried away

Agree1 Disagree0

Top 4 is too far away maybe 6th we are no where near the level of man u,city,chelsea,arsenal,spurs ,lets not kid ourselves

Agree1 Disagree0

Didnt we beat Man U last week. Actually forget that. Didnt we completley outplay man u last week?

If we play like we have played so far and don't get to many injuries I can see us finishing 4th.

Agree1 Disagree0

I really think we'll finish top 4 this season, we have the goals in us now to bridge the gap to the 'big 4'

Agree1 Disagree0

If any everton 'fan' says that were heading for the cl your deluded. Firstly yes it's been a great start but it's only 2 games, secondly do you really think we have the quality or strength in depth to succed in the cl not a chance. Football is about improving in steps let's get into the europa cup an see how we get on from there {Ed025's Note - whats wrong with aiming high?...we are as good as any team out there, and getting to the champions league, would bring great financial reward, as well as boosting our profile which will make us more attractive to investors...you may call it delusion, i call it ambition..

Agree1 Disagree1

I agree ED025, we have a very strong squad when all fit so why not aim as high as possible. 4th would be an unbelievable achievement but Spurs, Newcastle & us have porved in the past that you can get in amongst the top4. Just hope we can maintain a high standard all season & who knows where we could finish.

Agree1 Disagree0

This Everton 'fan' believes we have every chance of pushing for a top four place, really gets me how some people question whether you are a real fan just because you have a different opinion than them
TommyTomTom

Agree0 Disagree0

No I am questioning if this person realises the implications of qualifying for the champions league an how it could actually destroy the work that's been made so far. The squad is to small an there is no experience there although yes finish as high up as possible but if you over reach it can detrimental to the progress that is being made {Ed025's Note - not having it mate..if its that detrimental..how come every club sees it as the golden chalice?...the revenue alone is fantastic, never mind the prestige an advertising income..

Agree1 Disagree0

You don't have to take it. Last time everton qualified in the top 4 how much money was spent? Extra tv revenue? Sponsorship revenue? No I thought so a jump to quick to something that can't quite yet be done an push something as small as our squad to extremes would hurt it Europa is best at the end of this season an build a stronger squad with players for streangth in depth which the team would need to take on a competition like that an all the games in the domestic league/cup {Ed025's Note - we will have to agree to disagree mate...i say finish as high as we can..

Agree0 Disagree1

The last time we finished in the top 4 it was too soon for our team, People like rooney, tommy G had just been sold and players like Arteta looked so out of place when we player Villarreal.

Now we have a team! The players have such a bond and want to win things, look at Neville's and Moyes's interviews the last year and how much they want to win things here,

Why would they want to hold back now when it's achievable

Agree1 Disagree0

Nil Satis Nisi Optimum- I agree with Ed

Agree1 Disagree0

I aint deluded at all feel it is a real possibility to reach CL. If we do the revenue it brings will allow us to build a bigger squad and attract better players and make the club a more attractive opportunity for an investor. You play as many games in the europa league so why is that a better option.
COYB78

Agree1 Disagree0

Early days but I think our team and chelsea are the most improved so far man city have not improved man utd although they signed RVP I did not think that was there problems last season scoring goals there defence and midfield need strengthing which I still don't think they have done it looked dodgy again against fulham yesterday so I think we can close the gap this year nothing to do with us but if I was arsene wenger I would do everything to sign dembele of fulham the guy is a perfect replacement for song why no one has come in for him I don't know but he his box to box and has everything in his locker

Agree0 Disagree1

If ruining progress means getting into the cl then destroy the progress! because the last few seasons we've been going backwards last year we did superb to finish where we did, this season is when we push onwards and moyes knows it as you can tell with the players we are bringing in. if what im hearing about yann m'vila is true as well we will be immense

Agree0 Disagree0

Let Niang go to Italy. Thomas Ince for me!

Believable10 Unbelievable9

Ambition? Niang and Ince please {Ed025's Note - why not?..

Agree0 Disagree0

We can sign them both becuase we have the money to cover them both

Agree1 Disagree0

I'm sorry but the OP has truly no idea of how much Tom Ince would cost compared to Niang.
Where will we get the money from to purchase both too?
Dave M

Agree0 Disagree0

I'd love both, I think Niang would be cheaper and the way people talk about him possibly better in the long term ( sell on value)

Saw holloway chatting about ince and his old man, do you think the fact his old man was a red could scupper our chances for ince, if we are actually interested?

TJ

Agree1 Disagree1

Personally I would sign Ince & loan him back to Blackpool plus loan them Barkley as this would/could be a future Everton partnership anyway ....Ince has one big advantage over Niang having already proved he can cope with the english game. However Niang must also be an outstanding talent to have got trials at such big clubs so what can we say except ... imwt....coyb....cracking start, also can't fault Ed025, Jessica Ennis all the way

Agree1 Disagree0

Mr Oyston wouldn't let Holloway turn down anything over 4.5/5 million. Niang would cost 2 rising to 5.. Not much difference.

Agree1 Disagree1

There isn't a player at Blackpool that likes Ince, apparently his ego is as big as his dads ever was. He's also up to allsorts off the field. Moyes would never sign anyone like him. {Ed025's Note - thats speculation on your part, he did have a bit of an attitude when he was at the R/S, but he was only a kid, and believe me, im an expert on kids with attitudes, i think blackpool will want too much for him anyway..

Agree0 Disagree0

We're on 2nd on motd.

Believable17 Unbelievable8

Should be on dodgy rumours that one. Wont believe it till I see it myself...lol

EFCwhitesocks {Ed025's Note - nice one whitey..

Agree0 Disagree0

Hey Ed, would you please do something about these seriously spurious rumours! What next... Kaka on loan? :-D

Dave M {Ed025's Note - nice one dave..

Agree0 Disagree0

About time too ...my old fella & ma sends me to bed at 11pm .no matter what ..haven't seen the Blues on MOTD for last 3 seasons !! {Ed007's Note - Must be the old boy's blue pill kicking in at that time. Ties in with Babecast starting as well....check the phone bill.}

Agree1 Disagree1

Oh ye of little faith.
OP {Ed025's Note - if sundeland played ..we would not have been second on, but who cares?...we should be on..how do they do that...the way we are playing..

Agree1 Disagree1

It doesn't help when you have 2 ex rs as the main pundits, they must giggle to themselves when they put us on last. Nice to see them choking on their words as they were forced to say good things about us last night though.
OP

Agree0 Disagree0

Missed MOTD last night, did they say much about us or was it all about how bad villa were? {Ed025's Note - surprisingly..they praised us..

Agree1 Disagree1

25 Aug 2012 18:41:28
charlie adam or another cm to sign by Friday

Believable5 Unbelievable26

Katsidis (sp) what ever happened to him?

Agree0 Disagree0

I'd rather have Charlie Brown {Ed025's Note - or mrs brown!!

Agree0 Disagree0

Yeah, Ed025 - and Charlie Brown would only cost peanuts...
Cowpat Sid {Ed025's Note - nice one sid..

Agree1 Disagree1

Peanuts is worth well more....

deadline day signings possible niang philips ince i see ince as a furture england player

Believable16 Unbelievable7

Ince would be a great singing

Agree0 Disagree0

We've released a lot of squad players this summer we really could do with some typical Moyes deadline day signings that dont get noticed like coleman and gosling in the past

Agree1 Disagree0

After the Ince performance for Blackpool today believe me his price has gone up, I'd be happy with a squad player or two but please no last minute shockers like the arteta

Agree0 Disagree1

I realy like the look of the Ince kid , he is ONE for the future we must get him

Agree0 Disagree0

Ince is looking better and better so unless the deals in the pipeline I cant see myself. Would be a good addition though. COYB

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Aug 2012 17:05:53
I think we were waiting on the Johnson deal before we made a definitive move on Niang. I expect him to sign before the end of next week.

Hugh Jass

Believable9 Unbelievable7

Johnson the lad whho signed for Sunderland on friday..

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Aug 2012 14:49:41
that snide mark lawersons just been on the radio here in eire,saying he has it on good authority that a london club are preparing a bid for big felli for before next friday,saying its in his contract that if a bid comes for in or around what everton paid for him and he wants out the club cant stand in his way.

Believable7 Unbelievable24

Typical Kopite
Ste F 1878

Agree0 Disagree0

It is a joke, he as only just signed a new deal. Lets face it the only London team good enough is Chelsea and they have enough players fighting for their place. Heard they are after Hulk and Carvoni, i don't think would go. He is a hero at Everton and they are doing well, maybe next season.

Agree1 Disagree0

He has 4 years on his contract and no release clause!...STOP POSTING SH*TE

Agree1 Disagree0

Cant stand that bent b.stard.london club like who? chelsea overloaded with mid field players arsenal,why? spurs dont make me laugh. maybe the ex mustachioed red nose cross dresser is talking about qpr.

Agree1 Disagree0

Absolutely HATE Lawrenson... He was on MOTD last week and looked like a down and out!!

MOTD will be interesting tonight... Handball Hansen and bitter Lawrenson anyone... :-D

Agree0 Disagree1

Dnt listen dat man,he doesnt know if hes irish or english,wen irish play,its WE and wen england play its WE,

Agree0 Disagree1

Might well be...but he helped recruit his mate lets have some faith and not go moody over oyr world class lads...hes contracted to Everton for five years..i for one hope he stays the duration on current form and from last season

Agree1 Disagree0

In or around what we paid for him ? Are you mad ? No contract in the world would ever state such nonsense you fool

Agree0 Disagree0

Haah. don't think so ya clown........kopite go home and stop being a bitter red deluded person....briski

Agree1 Disagree0

Its Arsenal, they have RVP money burning a hole in there pockets and Wenger has to try and appease the fans. The only thing that might make him stay is the Mirrales factor, he could have signed for Arsenal but chose Everton because Fellini was there

Agree1 Disagree0

He works for the BBC so he should come out with the same statement tonight on MOTD, and who knows he might say a Manchester club is going to bid for LB because he has a clause in his contract.

Agree1 Disagree0

Think your the r/s posting that. Mad john

Agree0 Disagree0

And only 2 games into the season and he looks like he could be worth 3 times what we paid for him come the end of it.
jog on rs...

Agree1 Disagree0

It will need to be a bid of 30 million at least to prize him away but he ain't going nowhere especially as he persuaded mirallas to come {Ed025's Note - your having a giraffe...30m only gets his hair..

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Aug 2012 13:36:34
a website now saying we are favourites to sign M'baye Niang now saying personal terms have already been agreed and we are waiting on our bid of 3 million euros to be accepted andi thinkl the 3 million is what will be paid upfront i think with more in addition
Little Tim

Believable14 Unbelievable6

I meant to say a website are saying we are in poll position to sign him
Little Tim {Ed001's Note - it is the swear filter blocking it, we had to put blocks on a number of websites as they were constantly trying to post adverts for their nonsense.}

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Aug 2012 13:27:11
Everton are in pole position to land highly-rated Caen striker M'Baye Niang.

Believable13 Unbelievable3

25 Aug 2012 08:05:58
It's in the mirror and all over twitter that a fee had been agreed for niang just waiting to agree personal terms. Although there is also a lot of tweets saying he's going to a.c. Milan.

Hey guys. Both bbc and the Sun are reporting we have beaten arsenal and Milan to the signing of Naing, as were willing to pay more upfront. Exciting times. Push for a top 4 spot me thinks COYB {Ed025's Note - sounds good mate...but reading the sun taints your post..jft96..

Believable11 Unbelievable5

Milan News are now saying we've snatched him at rossoneri's expense. BTW italian press been full of praise for Moyes this week.

Agree1 Disagree1

#Never buy the Sun

Hope to see Niang holding scarf above his head in front of the Bullens RD

Then it's a done deal not before

Agree1 Disagree0

It's only the sun reporting it not the bbc, it's in their gossip column

Agree0 Disagree0

Stop reading the s*n jft96
pablo

Agree1 Disagree0

Hope so,then sell victor and still have money in the bank for maybe another player

Agree0 Disagree0

He may not read the Sun, you get transfer/football rumour snippets on BBC text page 302 and the internet

Agree1 Disagree0

The sun..? have a word with yourself mate.

Agree1 Disagree0

The BBC are NOT reporting that we beaten anyone to Niang, they are simply including The Sun's story in their round-up of the gossip. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Agree1 Disagree0

They are reporting that we have agreed a deal with Caen. still the players decision whether he goes with Milan or Everton

Agree0 Disagree0

I totally agree with your views on The paper ED, but like me I saw it on the Mail Online, they describe stories and it is only when you get to the bottom of the article that you see it has come from the newspaper

Jon

Agree1 Disagree0

Is rite ed

25 Aug 2012 00:59:38
hopefully niang and fetfatzidiz and a cm in by friday good times ahead

Believable9 Unbelievable3

I really hope so, CM is the most important in my view though as it is our most weak position, who though? that is the question...

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Aug 2012 23:57:28
Sorry #EFC fans but #Niang has chosen the loan move to #Milan. Now he just has to convince #Caen to permit the loan deal

Believable4 Unbelievable13

Erm, we've signed him for £2 million.

Agree1 Disagree1

Doesn't mean they will let him. If we guarantee him first team football I'm sure he will pick us

Agree1 Disagree0

Sorry milan, but the player has chosen to join everton, deal agreed with player and club.,

Agree1 Disagree1

His dad said it was better for him to join everton

Agree0 Disagree1

#thanks #for #that #
