Regarding the Niasse Davies STORY it really is a example of lazy journalism . There isn't a single verified quote or incident in the piece . I think Niasse was chosen as he is likely to be sold in the summer . Niasse seems to be a very popular member of the squad and always plays with a smile on his face . I wouldn't believe a word of it .

It's being reported on Sky Italia, Everton have met with Lukakus agent, and told him Romelu won't be going anywhere this summer. It states Everton want to give Koeman every chance in his first season. Just hope if he's forced to stay he doesn't sulk. Having said that if he did it wouldn't enhance his reputation.
Sit back and enjoy the summer of speculation.

there will be very little transfers done until the euros and copa are over so waisting time in naming players until then.
2.) 19 Jun 2016 19:14:02
Won't stop the press linking us with everyone.
And with all these funds will we finally get hold f Riquelme!
3.) 20 Jun 2016 22:49:07
Don't anyone believe that there'll be no activity during the Euros. The very idea that managers, chairmen, and agents will be sitting on their arses for three weeks is ludicrous.
There will be plenty going on, and deals, all bar the signature will be concluded.

The refereeing of matches and the rules these guys in black are having to enforce are really putting me off the game . Watching these grossly overpaid prim- donnas rolling round the floor in agony trying to get their opponents sent is embarrassing. After watching Harry Kane at Man U get a yellow card ( harshly ) for a worse tackle than the one Jags got a red for leaves me wondering are these guys all refereeing to the same rules . To continue my rant Match of the Day on Saturday annoyed . After waiting patiently last season til the final slot to watch the Blues I thought I had the criteria for the running order understood . Open games with the number of goals and talking points deciding the order.
1.) 28 Aug 2018 16:45:58
Think I am starting to get a complex about MOTD, but of course whatever the criteria is they do not have a downer on Everton. As to Referees, of course they have a hard job but again my opinion only but I believe the standard since turning Pro has slipped substantially, I don't know why. I have honestly seen better referees on a Sunday morning park game than some of the so-called Pro's.

While Niasse is obviously a nice guy with a first rate attitude he is most definitely not even a top six striker . If we have any ideas of breaking into the top four we need to be more ruthless and less sentimental. I would wish Oumar all the luck in the world but in my view I can't agree that Silva would be mad to let him go, as previously posted . DKL will have far less chances than last season and giving him as much playing time as possible is a far better option .
1.) 20 Aug 2018 20:15:06
Nothing sentimental about it. How many times did this no hoper of a non-top six striker save our bacon last season. The guy may appear to be a headless chicken but nobody can deny he has an uncanny ability to appear in the right place at the right time. Quite worth keeping in my view.
2.) 20 Aug 2018 20:27:30
Agree with Gary there, not good enough for me either.
3.) 20 Aug 2018 21:30:45
How many top quality 3rd choice strikers are out there.
{Ed002's Note - 28.}

Funny journey for Niasse. I'm with Garyo and GB, thank you very much for getting vital goals at vital times but I'd prefer we let him go.
Sadly Niasse's Everton career was over before he even got a chance to play. Ironically by the Everton supporters themselves! Could do a job for some teams but if we are looking to progress I'm sorry imho not good enough to take us to the next level. I would imagine a striker is one of the priority positions for Everton F. C. now that other areas were strengthened in the last window.
5.) 20 Aug 2018 21:58:05
If we was getting beat 1-0 with 10 minutes to go i would put my money on Niasse getting a goal if he come on over Calvert lewin. i'm not saying calvert lewin isn't a decent player and can do a job, but niasse does look more likey to get a goal .
6.) 20 Aug 2018 23:28:01
If there was still the opportunity to sign a better forward all you people saying we should get rid of Niasse my have had a point but letting him go now when we can't sign a replacement would nothing short of moronic. There are worse players in this squad to be shipped out before we get around to Niasse.
7.) 21 Aug 2018 00:03:53
It’s not simply a case of whether he’s good enough for a top 6 team. Brands and Silva have inherited a squad. They’ve worked wonders so far in reducing the squad size and bringing in replacements of a greater quality. Long term, Niasse may be deemed surplus to requirements. But short term, Niasse is needed for me. If Tosun picks up a long term injury, we’d need options. Assess again in January and July.
8.) 21 Aug 2018 04:20:12
I'm afraid I have to be honest and say I'm one of those who think Niasse isn't a top 6 player. He's scored some important goals for us which we should be grateful for. Like all strikers he's also missed some as well but it is his link up play that let's him down in my opinion. I haven't seen any stats but don't think his pass conversion rate would be good, nor his assists although I know he has had some. I just don't think the team plays with the same cohesion with him in the side.
One massive caveat though. The window is closed. If Tosun gets injured, who plays, who sits on the bench as backup. DCL is the future but is he going to get us the goals now. I'm sure Richarlison or Walcott think they could play through the middle but do we damage our creativity down the flanks. Hornby needs game time in the U23's.
For these reasons I would keep him until at least the opening of the next window. He can make an impact coming on late but long term - I don't think so.
{Ed001's Note - his pass percentage this season so far is 58.3%.}
9.) 21 Aug 2018 06:32:06
Love all these posts saying Niasse isn't a top 6 striker because last time I checked we weren't even a top 6 team.
10.) 21 Aug 2018 07:32:46
Thanks Ed but it doesn't take into account the circumstances. Not having a go at him but I bet Schids percentage last year was better but it was all sideways or backwards whereas Niasse had a centre half up his backside.
I just think we aren't as fluid with Niasse as we are with a Tosun or a Calvert Lewin. He lacks close control or awareness of others for me.
11.) 21 Aug 2018 07:36:15
You're right Dentielad but don't we want to be? That means getting in top 6 players.
12.) 21 Aug 2018 09:01:34
Where is Bernard going to fit into the team? We have him, Lookman, Walcott and Richarlison as our wide men taking up 2 places. Surely one of those would be an option up front IF something happened to both Tosun and DCL. Also Sandro is still here. I know he's hasn't lit up the premier league but he is still an option.
So imho this thing of saying we don't have any other players is nonsense. We obviously do. There is other players I could mention too like Bolasie. Yes they might not be top notch either but they are there and given the chance they may prove themselves too. Why shouldn't they all get a chance. More players there than Niasse.
13.) 21 Aug 2018 12:46:00
Sandro isn't an option. That's 4 coaches now who have all told us so yet some still don't get it. Unbelievable.
14.) 21 Aug 2018 12:55:06
ATM we are not too good for Niasse. I don't won't to say Fact! because I don't want to come across a tit (like my name suggests ☺) but I don't even feel like its an opinion. We are not in Europe either. Niasse is sound for this season.
15.) 21 Aug 2018 13:02:29
Ricky is also a CF and played most of his short career there. Add that to Theo and DCL and we have cover everywhere.
Niase deserves to play regular football but somewhere else.
16.) 21 Aug 2018 14:35:26
Myteamsbetterthanyours that's quite ironic what you say about Sandro. Niasse himself was dead and buried like Sandro is now but he reclaimed himself yet you think Sandro can't do the same?
There are other players at the club besides Niasse. Fair play to him for redeeming himself when it looked like even his own mother had ruled him out. Martinez didn't give him much of a chance and he signed him. Koeman didn't even give him a locker. Big Sam didn't give him much time either.
He was in a worse place than Sandro is now and got back to playing and winning over fans. Anyway Sandro was only one player mentioned in my post. What about the other 7 players mentioned.
17.) 21 Aug 2018 19:25:36
Sandro had definitely improved himself in pre season and considering how we are playing now compared to how we performed preseason. Maybe Sandro has a part to play in this squad.
I think we are getting a bit ahead of ourselves wanting rid of someone who is pretty happy being a 3rd choice striker.
18.) 22 Aug 2018 15:35:52
I don't think there's much between Niasse and Sandro aside from that Niasse scores a few goals. Sandro buzzes around just as much as Niasse but I cannot see him (or Niasse for that matter) playing week in, week out up top if Tosun got injured.
I'd personally put Richarlison up front with Lookman or Bernard on the left if Tosun were to be out.
That being said, I definitely think we need to sign a quality striker in the next 12 months. I do like Tosun and realise that we have far more goals coming from elsewhere now in Richarlison, Walcott etc, but if we had a 20 goal a season striker we'd really challenge the top 6 consistently IMO.
Now I've said that, Tosun will probably bag 25 goals this season. If he does, you're welcome.
19.) 22 Aug 2018 18:55:20
Niasse is a very good option to bring off the bench, He came off the bench in the last two games and both of them he beat his man, created a goal scoring chance, and both of those occasions if Coleman’s pass was better he would of scored, he has to stay.
09 Aug 2018 17:07:23
I would. Like to thank Farhad Mishiri and all the staff for making me a very happy Evertonian today . Sky Sports are raving that Everton have had the best day of all clubs . Can't wait for the season to get underway . Just a little patience now to give these players time to gel . CoybðŸ‘👠ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘.
1.) 09 Aug 2018 17:26:12
Apart from Phil Thompson 😂.
08 Aug 2018 16:36:43
Just heard a worrying interview on Talk sport. The South American expert was very down on Bernard . He's a sulker, too light weight for Prem and very inconsistent . That is why we had a clear run at him . On a brighter note he did say if the Mina deal came off what a acquisition he'd be for the club . Just hope a Portuguese speaking manager can get more from Bernard than some of his previous coaches . Personally Brandts and Silva have my trust .
{Ed025's Note - i love these experts..
1.) 08 Aug 2018 17:04:23
Did Fonseca not "get anything" out of Bernie for the last 3 season's?
Doesn't the Fonze speak Portuguese? Being as he is a Portugezza.
2.) 08 Aug 2018 17:11:17
If he signed for anyone else they'd all be spouting off about his attributes and what a signing he is
Because he signed for us all the negative jealous crap comes out
Let him play and as for lightweight I see players going down with the slightest touch every week in the prem.
3.) 08 Aug 2018 18:26:58
Silva and Brands have already said that they will be looking for players with the right character to work for the team. Richarlison and Digne seem to be ideal in regards to this so far (Digne apparently is known for taking to the streets with water and first aid for victims of the Barcelona attacks - what a legend) , so I'm sure Bernard would have been vetted beforehand so they know the kind of personality and player they were bringing in. Plus Richarlison reckons he's a good bloke. And he's also good friends with Mina. Maybe we're bringing all his mates in!
4.) 08 Aug 2018 18:52:37
Have read other stuff on the lad (Bernard) , mainly the fact that he has not played in any of the top leagues of Europe or elsewhere and that we had a clear run at him. Personally I know nothing about him, so have to trust that Brands and Silva know what they are doing. Not been impressed with pre-season, the serious stuff begins Saturday, can't go away this Season, frustrating but there it is, so have to wait for the first home game to see. Assessment so far is that we look good in front of Schneiderlin and need strenghthening from him backwards (including Schneiderlin - my opinion) .
5.) 08 Aug 2018 21:57:19
I seem to remember lots of people saying how Coutinho was lightweight and look how that turned out!
6.) 09 Aug 2018 10:08:02
Don't get this 'lightweight' theory, Coutinho, Silva and Sterling all done well in the Premier League, would these not be classed as lightweight. End of the day if you are small yet technically gifted you find the space to not get hit and if you do get hit you draw a foul. He is being brought in as a creative player not as a ball winner so doesn't need to be massive.
31 May 2018 10:13:40
I don't know if anyone else has noticed that every Everton target ( players and managers )
Is being chased by West Ham?
1.) 31 May 2018 12:41:44
Same last season, I suppose we are at a similar stage as them wanting to make the next step up. Needing a higher calibre of player.
25 Jun 2016 05:41:34
I don't get the impression Lukaku is greedy mate. Badly advised, definitely. I think he's in a rush to add medals to his statistics. But as you say, what goes on in his head, maybe you're right.
22 May 2016 14:30:01
Kenwright has appointed 2 manager . Both have left behind a stronger squad than they inherited. I know things didn't work out for Martinez but he did improve the squad during his time . Kenwright hasn't chosen our managers too badly . If Roberto had employed a defensive coach who knows how things would have turned out. His arrogance and refusal to change was his downfall. I've complete confidence in Kenwright.
07 Jun 2016 10:17:10
Read a translation from a Russian site. It basically said Moshiri is a front holding shares for Usmanov. The way business is being conducted even the press are playing guessing games.
25 May 2016 11:51:43
I remember relegation fights mate, not looks on faces.
25 May 2016 10:05:20
Can't believe how short some peoples memories are. With no money we were in or about the European places year after year . Before that we were flirting with relegation year after year. Remember final matches against Wimbledon, then Coventry. Thanks to Moyes, and can't stress this enough, with no money, he did a unbelievable job. We went from selling Rooney for £30m and being grateful for it . To turning down £30 for lescott. We became a different club .
20 May 2016 11:21:43
Hi BlueJohn . I think Bolton, Blackburn, Newcastle and Sunderland fans would disagree with you about Big Sam mate. If he was foreign he'd have a much better reputation.
20 May 2016 11:07:50
Couldn't agree more mate. Can't understand the negativity that he attracts.
You only have to take a look at where Big Sams ex clubs (except West Ham ) are now to appreciate what a great job he does . As soon as he was appointed Sunderland boss I expected them to stay up. Loved his comment about John Stones too. No doubt he'd turn him into a much better defender.
