The really sorrow point is, no really positive news as of yet other than Luk and Bark going, maybe. No real names mentioned coming in, so what do we need, all areas need improving, and dead wood needs getting rid of, no names, got 2 months b4 our Europa league challenge begins, what or who we going to get Ed COYB.

{Ed025's Note - the season only finished a week ago graham so we have to give them a bit of time, most players have a holiday now and some will not be contactable for a couple of weeks which is only fair i suppose, irons will still be in fires though mate and im sure that walsh, koeman and moshiri will have identified their targets so now its just a case of securing the deals mate..

If we get anywhere near £100 million for Lukaku and 50 million for Barkley, I will carry both to the airport myself, out with the old and in with the new, hopefully players that can turn up in the big games, this Summer is going to be big, hold on to your drawers.

Valuation of Barkley is irrelevant, weather you think he's worth £50m or not, is valuation will be what ever some one is willing to pay, pogba is never a £90m player and has been less productive than Barkley This season, would you have taken £50m for Barkley last summer?

Hi Ed, surely this Ross lark is not going to do his England chances much good let alone his Everton one, i reckon he is being wrongly advised by his agent to hold out for bigger bucks, he could come down to Earth with a big bump if he's not careful, cheers GuernseyBlue.

{Ed002's Note - There is nothing going on with Barkley that isn't simply business as usual for clubs and players. It is nothing to do with his England career nor any "coming down to earth". He is available for transfer and Everton has set a price on him above what most clubs would likely look to pay. Either someone pays more or Everton has to change their stance. It is all simple and the norm - and no big deal. As I have previously explained, Ronald Koeman has already backed Everton in to a very difficult place now with his unprofessional "washing the laundry in public" attitude.}

Is that the fee Ed or is it just paper talk because he's not worth 50 and once there's no bids are they going to come back looking like fools saying oh it's 25 now someone in the club has got the valuation very wrong.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - The "asking" price a third party who will be hawking him around has been give is £50M but they won't get that.}

Cheers ed.

Ed, I wondered if could pick your brains over a transfer query I have, I was just wondering, is it a lot more expensive to bring a player in than sell one. For example say we sold Barkley for 30m and bought Sigurdsson for 30m, it wouldn't be as black and white as breaking even? . Taking wages out of the equation, there would be signing on fee's, agent fee's etc for the incoming transfer. Are there any additional incomes generated from an outgoing transfer? . Or is it a case of 30m and that's it.

{Ed002's Note - It depends on various factors Gibbo, particularly whether the player is under 24 and was developed by the club but it would be a saving rather than an expenditure in the case of RB. Typically selling a player brings in a fee but it does incur costs as well.

In simple terms:
what would be paid by the buying club (Everton) for Sigurdsson would typically include:
(a) Transfer fee - the big number.
(b) Any levy applied by the local FA – 5% for the EPL.
(c) Tax due on the transfer fee – typically this will be VAT (at varying rates across Europe) some or all of which should be reclaimable.
(d) Agent fees – this may be to one or more agents (this will be several million pounds).
(e) Tax due on the agent fees – typically this is VAT at the local rate where the agent bills from – it is not reclaimable.
(f) Intermediary fees – this may be to one or more sponging leeches (what do you mean you have a super agent?) .
(g) Tax due on the Intermediary fees – typically this is VAT at the local rate where the Intermediary bills from – it is not reclaimable.
(h) Signing on fee to the player (possibly including non-reclaimable VAT if the player is VAT registered).
(i) Legal fees.
(j) VAT on legal fees which is reclaimable.
(k) Moving/relocation costs for the player.
(l) VAT on moving/relocation costs which is reclaimable.
(m) Paying up insurance costs to the selling club (sometimes waived).

What is paid by the selling club (Everton) for Barkley) would typically include:
(a) If the player is under 24 and moving between different football associations, a Solidarity contribution paid to his previous clubs responsible for his training - this is 5% of the transfer fee received (apportioned 5% of the contribution for each year from the season of his 12th birthday to the season of his 15th birthday and 10% of the contribution for each season from his 16th to 23rd birthdays). So for RB this is zero.
(b) If the player moves to a higher category club (all clubs being categorised 1 to 4) then Training Compensation is due for the period of age 12 to 21. Compensation is due to all clubs when the player turns from amateur to professional and thereafter only when he moves from his final training club to another club. The initial training compensation is levied at the training costs associated with Category 4 clubs. The subsequent figure is agreed between the sides or tribuneral if necessary. Zero in the case of RB.
(c) Any monies owed to the player if he did not request a transfer – again this is 5% of the transfer fee received.
(d) Any monies owed to the player in terms of his contract (typically outstanding owed wages (not future wages) and bonuses).
(e) Any money contractually due to a previous club as the result of a sell-on clause. Zero for RB.

Thanks ed, great insight.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - You are welcome Gibbo.}

I don’t get it I thought Ross wanted 100k and Sigurdsson wants 120k so are we saying Sigurdsson is worth 20k per annum more? Bringing age into account its a little bit strange to me .

Agree0 Disagree2

{Ed002's Note - That would be per week not per year. My advice is not to worry about the wages at all.}

25 May 2017 15:24:08
Very interesting Ed.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - It starts to put transfers in to context.}
