Everton Transfer Rumours

21 Oct 2026 10:58:36
A mate of mine who is very good friends with someone at the club, not mention any names, has told me apparently DM has lost the dressing room , don't shoot the messenger I'm just repeating what I was told

21 Oct 2026 11:34:02
I can believe that mate, DM does not look happy these days more a Bulldog chewing a Wasp.

21 Oct 2026 13:02:51
Maybe it's due to HD being so big and still fairly new. He will soon get used to the way there.

21 Oct 2026 13:16:35
Hopefully not.

21 Oct 2026 15:01:38
I found it really easy when I went there, perhaps they need to put some direction signs up for him.

21 Oct 2026 15:13:45
I think he knows how to get there; he just recognises 11 or so people in the place, and the rest are guys he means to get to know maybe sometime in the future. That's only if he feels like it.

21 Oct 2026 21:38:05
No surprise. Can't imagine why anyone would be happy playing under him.

That said, what exactly would have to happen for him to go? Can't imagine the owners will want the faff of finding a new one, especially if it potentially alters the perceived value of the club to potential buyers.

Think the vaguely positive start we've had is about to go pretty sour

20 Oct 2026 10:16:22
Just a quick question if Barry has missed the most goal chances does that mean we're creating lots of goal opportunities for him to miss plus the goals he's actually scored?
Following on from that if we're creating lots of goal opportunities does that mean we're playing boring defensive football?
Had the recruitment been better and we'd got a decent striker in (obviously not Balogun with his fitness issues and only just started playing) where would we be? Maybe if we get someone that can score goals when the window opens we might convert a few more chances into goals and thereby draws into wins and losses into draws.


Standby I'm getting into the strange world of optimism, forget it, it will never happen let's sack everyone and be happy fighting relegation!

20 Oct 2026 11:42:45
Before spending more money on dud strikers I'd try alcaraz there great shot on him good feet and he's quick some manager years ago decided to try their midfielder tiery Henry up front and bingo he scored lots of goals.

20 Oct 2026 12:07:32
Apparently he's missed 12 great goals this season the worst of any striker in the prem, just imagine in half of those had gone in, time to try Alcaraz or George or Hackney or Dibling anything but that useless xxxx.

20 Oct 2026 13:13:53
Thinking back to the Wolves win in the cup. He had a few chances in that game which was looking like going to pens until Alcaraz came on and put away his only chance.


They say you can only make broth with the bones you have got, but Moyes is even getting that wrong. Put Alcaraz on after 60 mins and see if we can replicate what happened at Wolves!?

21 Oct 2026 10:27:26
Yes, GB, I would say that is a whopping great elephant in the room mate.

18 Oct 2026 18:46:07
After all the positive times we had when FM sold us to TFG we had a bit of hope for a long time, then we had the new stadium and things where looking good with light at the end of the very long tunnel, all i can see now is many months of upheaval and dark times once again for us blues, we need new owners and new manager which are not two a penny, we need at least 6 new top players which are also not easy to find, i think we are in for another though ride and it just seems to go on forever and ever.

18 Oct 2026 20:00:23
Same as when Moshiri put us up for sale mate, it seems that Father Christmas really was a red all the time.

18 Oct 2026 21:23:19
I remember walking out of Wembley in 1995 and believing that we were looking at a new and exciting era. Since then we have had over 30 years of a few near misses and the rest basically just hanging on.

I like most of you thought that TFG would bring stability and something to be proud about. Well they have stabilized the financial part and should be thanked for that, but here we go again on the merry-go-around.

{Ed025's Note - i remember more coming back from Rotterdam and thinking this could be a European cup winning team Mike, but the dark forces put paid to that of course, being an Evertonian has never been easy mate..

19 Oct 2026 07:45:54
Since 95 the main reason we haven't won a thing is lack of ambition we stood still we were 20 odd years to late in building new ground we've had weak owners that would rather sell our best young talent rather than build something with them in it now we've gone so far backward it's all about survival managers come in with one main goal keep us in the prem and it's job well done so the mindset is let's not get beat we have good young attack minded players that aren't getting a chance alcaraz Hackney dibling it's been the same since we sold arteta for peanuts last second of window.

19 Oct 2026 02:58:47
You're right there Ed mate those were the days.

19 Oct 2026 16:10:51
Yes, many false dawns and, imo, draconian decisions that cut short what I will always believe was the road to 'super star' status.
But hey, here we are again.

18 Oct 2026 11:08:06
Gyokeres looking away from Arsenal didn't we try and sign him when he was leaving Coventry.

18 Oct 2026 12:25:16
But, would he come to us, and I think Arsenal would demand a fee, outside of our current range, unless TFG, have a lot of spare change.🙏🤑.

18 Oct 2026 13:55:15
Cheeky loan offer perhaps.

18 Oct 2026 14:04:09
Took a bit to get started at Arsenal but is a good player, I don't know if dithering would put players off signing for us.

19 Oct 2026 20:50:13
There's absolutely no chance he would ever sign for us - and if he did, he would be the exact sort of striker who has driven us mad for the last 10 years!

He'll probably go to Napoli or Inter or somewhere like that for £50m in the summer, after a loan deal.

17 Oct 2026 18:05:17
We played well once Armstrong had been booked and were the better Team, second half we were abysmal, once again Dibs, Alcaraz, Hackney sit it out on the bench DM on thin ice I reckon am hearing his contract is on hold, can't see him being here much longer he's his worst enemy.

17 Oct 2026 19:30:56
Once O'Neil gets the push from celtic and it won't be long then moyes will be up there quicker than a rat up a drainpipe next international break I'm sayin.

{Ed025's Note - amen to that TL..

17 Oct 2026 20:05:32
Hmm didn't go for the Scotland job.

18 Oct 2026 00:22:57
That's because Scotland are bloody awful, and in the Scottish league it's between two clubs so he would look good there.

18 Oct 2026 07:45:44
That's it bmd he would jump at the chance same way he jumped to the manu job thought he was going to be winning the league soon found out the only reason ferguson left was because the squad manu had was crap and will probably be the same for him at celtic but his ego won't let him turn it down.

18 Oct 2026 10:34:09
You do surprise me GB.

18 Oct 2026 11:27:52
Can't keep doing the same mistakes with players we will soon slip down the table even I've given him long enough mate.

18 Oct 2026 16:23:13
The problem with Moyes is that he is just too set in his ways. You think that he is bending slightly giving players like George and Dibling a chance and then when we face a team like Chelsea he reverts back to the defensive tactics that are aimed at a draw. You could imagine how bad we would be in Europe! He has to go.

17 Oct 2026 11:23:25
Rohl RW over George, Dibling and Johnson.

Why any young attacker comes to Everton is beyond me.

17 Oct 2026 11:38:48
He's basically gone for two right backs. I'm surprised he didn't play Travers up top 🙄.

17 Oct 2026 14:42:54
the fact he took one off as soon as we scored confirms his only ambition was a draw.

18 Oct 2026 08:17:21
We have some exciting youngsters sitting on the bench, I appreciate we can't play them all and need balance but they hardly get a look in. And for Barry.

Omg he's costing us points, I'm praying January we get another striker and a couple of defenders in, midfield seems OK barring injuries, as said above, I don't know why youngster would look at us and come here after watching Dibling and Hackney hardly get a look in! I SO DISAPPOINTED!

16 Oct 2026 13:40:01
Make City owners sell up to TFG (with incentives) then City owners (investment fund) buy Everton.

16 Oct 2026 18:36:24
I don't believe that it makes any difference how wealthy an owner may be, look at Newcastle. You have to cheat like Chelsea and City to make headway. If the City investment fund purchased Everton they would be audited every five minutes, with City every ten years.

17 Oct 2026 08:37:01
Exactly, Mike. The system has been so rigged now that we may as well have Bill back and it would make no difference.

The elite are given infinite funds, and the rest of us are hamstrung and ruthlessly punished for any sign of ambition.

17 Oct 2026 11:27:42
But why do the rest of the teams in the prem accept it.

17 Oct 2026 11:45:58
Who says they do. You need 14 clubs to agree. Which club from City, United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs, Arsenal would vote against to provide the majority. These are locked in and would only have to convince one more and the whole thing is in their favour.
FA know how to look after its revenue so it'll never be about fair play.

14 Oct 2026 16:20:41
Weren't the two big rich Everton fans George someone and another guy going to form a consortium with the guy who owns Dell computers last time and try to buy us but the whole 777 debacle and then Toaster or whatever his name was before TFG arrived and saved us.

I read that they're both potential buyers but would need financing. I also read that Stavely wasn't in the running might have been in the ℹ️ paper.

15 Oct 2026 21:45:34
Andy Bell, owner of AJ Bell is one of them. Evertonian, billionaire. George Downing is the Dell link. There was talk around the time of 777 (I still have nightmares) but I don't know how serious they were or how much money they actually have.

16 Oct 2026 12:20:15
Let's jus hope it's not AJ Bells wife going in a consortium with Stavaley as that really will be Halloween come early lol 🤭.

14 Oct 2026 09:03:16
Hey Ed I'm reading that sanctions on certain Russian individual's are trying to be lifted and Usmanov now wants to buy Everton, any info mate.

{Ed025's Note - i cant see that to be honest GB, that would open a massive can of worms mate not only in football circles but in political ones as well..

14 Oct 2026 10:23:40
Some stability would be nice, we want owners/investors that are looking to stay for at least 10 years and continue building a legacy at the new stadium. Finances will continue to improve and so we should be an attractive proposition. I still think a consortium with a focal point that understands the club would work well, Evertonians want an Evertonian involved to some extent.

14 Oct 2026 12:21:22
Amen to that JB that's exactly what we need.

16 Oct 2026 13:41:13
Lifted by the EU but not by the UK.

13 Oct 2026 13:34:47
Reading there are two potential buyers for Everton at the moment one is Amanda Staveley and the other an American equity company, would like this sorted before the next transfer window.

13 Oct 2026 14:06:14
Amanda Staveley has been desperately trying to buy any club that goes up for sale. There's something there that's not quite right, and I'm not talking about how her face is arranged 🤪.

13 Oct 2026 15:23:54
She's still after West Ham apparently.

14 Oct 2026 16:15:36
She is an asset stripper for the highest bidder.

{Ed001's Note - that's not true. She is nothing of the sort. She builds consortiums to buy things, recently that has been football clubs. She is a facilitator who leads the way and does the deals.}

14 Oct 2026 16:32:27
If her role in this is as it was at Newcastle then she's simply a fixer.

{Ed001's Note - exactly.}

14 Oct 2026 17:47:18
Hey Ed, is it likely that she is being prompted by her Middle East connections?
Thanks in advance, mate.

{Ed001's Note - yes,
