Use our rumours form to send us everton transfer rumours.
10 Jul 2012 23:26:05
Why did Shkodran Mustafi move to Sampdoria earlier this year? Another example of a young player we make huge efforts to bring into the club and then move on a couple or so years later. Was it because he wanted first team football? Or did he just not develop into the player we were expecting? And when we do have an absolute gem (e.g. Rooney), we don't seem able to hold onto them. So depressing...but once a blue always a blue - never give up hope.

If they move on Sid they were either not good enough or they 'thought' they could make it somewhere else. Our youth system is fantastic... One of the best. Thats why we should always be highly respected by everyone. We try to retain the old school side of football. No stupid spending, bringing through the youth (a slow, frustrating process), yet still maintaining a high league position. We should all be proud of our ethics as a club.

How many rumours (a word defined in the dictionary as "information, often a mixture of truth and untruth, passed around verbally") on this forum are based on genuine insider knowledge - pretty much none I suspect - and how many are honest snippets by people genuinely in the know - very few I'd have thought as the real interested parties would surely keep their gobs shut. Or am I being naive?

baines to man u is a done deal a fee of around 16 million has been agreed the only reason why it is taking long to be confirmed is that united are a cautious about his injury problems but expect the deal to go through anyway. {Ed025's Note - hmmm..
you's all doubted me when i posted this, yes i agree he hasnt suffered many injury problems but the main concern is his ancle, look at the papers today it is what i said days ago, i tell you all he is going to man u he even has a squad number set {Ed025,s note- hmmm..

if Leighton goes to Man Utd then its for one reason only. Money. Simple as and don't let anyone kid you otherwise. We did not miss him last season when he was injured and sometimes played too much down the left flank. Yes he is a good player and if he stays great. But we have lost better players before and can replace them with ease. {Ed025's Note - i dont know about...with ease...but no one player is bigger than the club..
Believable2
Unbelievable3
If Baines goes, it's for the chance to play in the Champions League. Not every player is motivated solely by money. Bainsey has been a great servant for Everton, and has never messed us around. He deserves our respect.
Still think £12m (plus these annoying add ons) sounds low, though. I'd say £15m cash upfront (with add ons) was about right.
But Fergie has done us a few favours in the past. Maybe this is payback time, and perhaps even a load deal chucked in too.
Or it could all be crap, and Baines is here to stay.

I'd just like to say, don't be surprised if Moyesy doesn't start signing a few players until the end of the transfer window. I know most of us will be moaning and groaning but Moyes is right to do so because 1.) Other clubs can not snatch our targets. 2.) We don't have to pay their wage bills over the summer. So keep those chins up lads, Moyes always pulls through in the end.

Jay the only problem with that theory is that the targets we are after ( if that good! ) should of been already sold by then. You don't get brilliance to often at the end of the window, i.e Staq ( just not up to it ) Drenthe ( Nuts! & happy to destroy his very promising career ! ). Lee Efc

Think of it what you will but a lot of fellow Evertonians that i have spoken to say that the Baines deal is done and dusted. I hope to God not because decent left backs are a rarity and i think we have one of the best there is. Also, £12 million rising to £16 million is an insult if i'm perfectly honest. Look at how much the reds**te payed for that donkey and he wasn't even proven in the premiership. I would accept no less than £20 million for Baines. Big clubs such as Man Utd think they can offer Everton as little money as possible because of our financial situation and it pisses me off.

It seems the British (Manc.Cockney) press try to unsettle both our clubs on Merseyside every year in the hope that it affects our starts to the season.
In our case it seems they are scared of us having a good start to a season because ( and I'm being realistic here ) we could achieve a top four finish. Can you imagine the uproar if they had to put us on MOTD first?? We are 2 more signings away from having a quality squad. We played some of ( if not THE ) best football in the final 3rd of the premier league last season and if we can start in that sort of form we can upset the top four from early on.

So if some random non league 37 year old says it would be an honour to play for us we should snap him up? Moyes will only sign them if he thinks they are good enough I think Pranjic would be a great addition although it seems to have gone quiet on that front.

He's neither doc, I think he'll go. But if the price is right £20mill min,then it's decent business for both parties! We get money to find the next Baines and strngthen the whole team and he gets the chance to test himself in the champions league so he certainly won't be a judas if he decides to go and the club aren't necessarily wrong to take the £20 million for a 27yr old

Guess it's been a bad day at work!?
Only posted as stated above, SICK TO DEATH of hearing Baines is going, I have to work with about 10 - 20 MUFC fans and thought I'd come on here, with my fellow Blues, to put this "Rumour" to rest and get some support from my fellow blues.
But NO! there's always one....
I actually have £50 with my boss that Baines will be a blue come Sep 1st!
And YES, your right, I do still think "Everton" can win the league, I think Everton can do the treble (start counting on those fingers and toes. I know it's a big number)
Actually dripping a tear, knowing fellow Blues treat each other this way!
Guess you don't care who gos or stays? Personally, I'd like to keep the "Best left back in the country" so we can improve and progress and start winning again.

The following quote should be kept in mind when you start hearing nonsense about Naisy's contract situation :
PFA Scotland solicitor Margaret Gribbon of Bridge Litigation has written to all English Premier League and Championship clubs reassuring them.
Ms Gribbon stated: “I have been furnished with a copy of Mr Green’s letter sent to English clubs in their top two divisions and consider that it amounts to an attempt to deliberately misrepresent my clients’ position. I have therefore today sent a detailed letter to the clubs setting out the facts and repeating our very firm legal view that Mr Green’s allegations of breach of contract are entirely without legal merit.
"My clients are free agents and I am pleased to note that several Premier League clubs have already made applications to the SFA for International Transfer Certificates indicating that they attach little weight to Mr Green’s assertion that Sevco is entitled to seek damages for breach of contract.
“Furthermore it should also be noted that the SFA has confirmed that in the event of there being a dispute over registration the matter will be referred to FIFA.”
What all this means is Rangers don't exist anymore in legal terms, and the former Rangers players have no contract with the new club/company which is Sevco.
This means that TUPE Legislation comes into effect and makes Greens case look ridiculous.
You can't have a contract with something that doesn't exist.
Nor can you have a contract with a new company (Sevco) if you haven't signed one.

Baines rumours cranked up another level now. Hard to see it going away.. 16m isn't enough aswell by the way. And this 12m upfront and the rest in drive and drabs?! This is man utd. If you're going to continue poaching our players.. PAY WHAT'S RIGHT! 20 million, and all of it now thanks.

some reporters seem desperate to sell Everton players which could be cynicism
or corporate interest. There has been nothing from any clubs about selling or buying our best players. These are rumours from unreliable sources and be good if they were reported as such. It is also bit sinister how closely news sources are linked to Bookmakers who seem to be making a lot of money from these rumours being passed on.
as real. these things are fine on sites
lke this but what has it come to when
site built for a bit of fun and gossip
is as reliable as highly paid journos.
Baines is almost certainly staying if
every bit of info coming from clubs
is to be believed

Just read that article from the Daily Star online, what a pile of sh**e, come on peolpe if you believe this you need your head testing, point one they stated the following
"Toffees boss David Moyes is reluctant to sell Baines, but knows he cannot turn down such a tempting offer or persuade the defender to stay at Goodison Park"
They state they are offering 12 million rising to 16 million, as if Bill or Davey would entertain this offer.
Point 2:
Baines has stated he does not want to go and Davey has said he has had no offers.
Just let it go now people with this paper said this and that paper said that, if it happens we will all know about it because it will be confirmed on SSN, we will move on but until then just laugh at all crap Talksh*t, the papers and Twitter noobs are saying.

I got a text of a friend who is a manc [sad fecker]but is a good lad told me an Everton fan posted on there site talking about Baines and this supposed transfer but what caught his eye was the lad went on to say Rooney was right to leave Everton as he was to big for the club .Personally i dont agree Rooney was young and never gave our club a chance he claims to be a blue for life and turned his back on us .I could never say a player is to big for Everton nobody is bigger than the club rooney was young he should have given the club more time if i was a player and broke into Everton first team i would never leave as long as the club wanted me.I know people talk about money but in all fairness players still finish up very wealthy people at the end no matter what so to me it just comes down to pure and utter greed .Stef the blue.

If the stories about Baines are true we need to sort this quick. If its not true issue a statement, if its true sort the fee. Baines has been a super servant but if it comes to either baines or felli we need fellaini. If we can get top money for baines and reinvest wisely it could be for the greater good. Some super players out there for not massive money ie dempsey, dembele, hoilett, pienaar, johnson.

Hey Ed my cousin who is a r/s (may god have mercy on his poor soul) seems to reckon he's been well informed that both Rogers and Moyes are both in talks with Barca over Afellay as we are both trying to strengthen those wide positions. I highly doubt it as surely we would be well priced out of it but he seems pretty confident that one of us will get him and at the moment he could go either way. I'm very sceptical but have you heard anything as I can't find nothing about it anywhere.

Did notice however he confirmed Everton were interested in him back in 2010 so Moyes obviously has been a long time admirer. Maybe there's something in this one!

Yeah mate I saw that rumour a couple of years ago I cant remember what club he played for but it seemed a goer back then might have some substance.

I believe he was at PSV at the time Joe, as sceptical as I am my cuz seems pretty sure of it and it's strange for a r/s to admit we were competing with them for a signature is a strange thing. Have to wait and see mate.

American online secondary ticketing business ,stub hub,who want to establish themselves in the uk ,have signed a 1.7million deal with everton to trade season tickets, this will allow ever tons membership to re sell seats well above face value ........don't no what ppl think about this,I personally could not make money selling a ticket to a fellow evertonion,get what you paid back yes,..your better giving it away free than stinging a blue.......tristen {Ed025's Note - im with you tris..

But then the buyer is getting a ticket at below what other people are prepared to pay for it - the open market price - so the buyer has in effect done you if you sell lower - cos he's got a good deal and you've sold your ticket cheap
I'm season ticket holder with my kid - so that's two tickets per game I'm on - and sometimes because of a bad luck holiday clash or whatever I have to miss a match like ManU or Liverpool - gutted - but some people would pay 100 quid maybe to go to that game - which brings my bill down a bit for the year - and compensates me for missing a top match.
I'd use the new service if it was available :)

100 pound for a ticket 3 times face value,if your happy doing that to a fellow blue your just as bad as all the other touts no offence just my opinion,..but it's within your rights could not do it myself,.........tristen {Ed025's Note - me neither tris..
Agree0

I don't like touts that grab bulk lots of tickets from distributors, just to sell them when they'd have been sold to proper fans anyway - but I have no problem with touts who stand outside a ground offering a service - they're a 'middle man' between people who want sell and people who want to buy.
Without the tout, anyone who had a spare ticket would have to wonder around shouting "I've got a spare ticket - anyone wanna buy it" - no thanks - I'd rather let the tout do it.
Using the new free market service means I'm getting the correct price for a ticket I can't use.
Then again - I never use touts - and how can I sell a season ticket entry for a game I can't get to - when the person needs my card to get in?

Think generally Moyse has a decent track record on transfers....over the years he has had a bit of luck in missing out on some of his targets like Alan Smith, Reira. For most, Koldrup. Billy and Simon Davies raised question marks, but you have to say if Harry had not pinched Naughton, and Lescot not been seduced by money, we would have had potentially the Engand back four, when you add in Baines and Jags. He also did not fight Arteta when he wanted to go and I think that was because he saw that he was no longer the same player he once was and he got decent money for him. So lets hope he springs one as good as Jelavic in the coming weeks.
