Godfrey gone for 10 million. Not bad business.
{Ed025's Note - not bad at all Smit, things are starting to fall into place mate, i hear (courtesy of ED002) that the transfer of Ndiaye is done, it cant go through until monday though so as not to complicate problems, this is of course subject to the new owner providing the money for the loan i must stress..
1.) 29 Jun 2024 11:05:23
Wow. I thought Godfrey was a future captain after his first season. Don't know what happened to him but 3 yrs on the bench and ends up with champions league football? What a world we live in ?.
{Ed025's Note - i think long covid had a lot to do with his demise Pauly, i wish the lad well though as he never let us down when called upon mate..
2.) 29 Jun 2024 18:09:37
That and a bad injury which is never easy to come back from.

Club messed him around with various managers. We’ve messed a lot of young players around in the 10 years save for DCL and Branthwaite.
5.) 01 Jul 2024 08:33:35
Everton in past under different managers have signed young talent and just been messed around as for Godfrey he had a great start to his career at Everton until he had that serious injury and numerous managers. You can’t blame the lad for rejecting extension and opting to see his future options. I wish him all the success and best of luck in his next chapter of his career as he has always shown professionalism. In his case as can play various positions hasn’t helped his opportunities to cement a starting place in his preferred position as CB.
{Ed025's Note - yeah i second that Sean..

Maddock saying a bid has gone in for Toure.
1.) 13 Jul 2023 21:15:55
Who is Maddock?
Who is Toure?
2.) 13 Jul 2023 21:48:45
El Bilal Toure. One of the many attackers we’ve been linked with.
3.) 13 Jul 2023 22:01:21
Who is Maddock?
One of the few reliable journos.
Hes normally pretty good with info.
4.) 14 Jul 2023 11:11:42
Tbf the age of players we are linked with, this could be kolo toure we bidding for.
10 Jul 2023 17:44:25
Loan with a obligation to buy for el bilal Toure.
1.) 10 Jul 2023 18:09:31
No chance. BK - the very worn, well we tried stamp in the pending tray.
2.) 10 Jul 2023 18:32:31
And in four payments can’t see them accepting that Smit mate.
3.) 10 Jul 2023 21:38:54
Would be good if we can push that through Smit
We had good success with some loans that turned permanent in the past Pienaar and Arteta being two
Holding onto my optimism.
09 Jun 2023 14:18:24
Tom Davies, Coleman and Lonegran have been offered new deals.
Townsend hasn't.
{Ed025's Note - if we are giving Tom a new deal we might as well give Maupay a new 6 year deal and double his wages…I give up..
1.) 09 Jun 2023 14:45:21
Relegation battle no's 3 coming up.
2.) 09 Jun 2023 14:47:22
If Davies goes Ed there will be no one to braid Calvert Lewins hair before he goes on the treatment table.
{Ed025's Note - good point Reg.. ?
3.) 09 Jun 2023 14:53:43
Hes a decent squad player, loves the club and is happy to fill in when needed Ed and would mean spending 5-10mill to replace. I don't see any youngsters in our squad who could step up just yet.
Hes a good age too so any kind of decent season and we can recoup money on him.
Letting him go is just a loss.
{Ed025's Note - for me he would not be a loss at all smit.
He’s so weak he’s nearly a fortnight mate. He always looks tired to me..
4.) 09 Jun 2023 15:22:31
Disappointing reading those contract offers - only Coleman I’d keep.
Can’t believe Lonegran at 39 and Tom Davies who is poor have been offered new contracts
However there’s no info on the contracts so hopefully they’ll be for less than what they are currently on and they decide to move on.
5.) 09 Jun 2023 15:25:32
Didn't play much last season but had a good game against the reds after not playing much. Hopefully another season as back up might bridge the gap for a Onyango.
6.) 09 Jun 2023 15:28:47
In the great grand world of FFP it sort of makes sense, as long as it’s not a long term deal and not stupid wages
Would I want an upgrade…… yes
Are we in a position to get an upgrade…. possibly not.
7.) 09 Jun 2023 18:33:11
Being offered new contract means nothing until they are excepted. If the club has any sense they would reduce the wages if they are giving out a loyalty bonus.
8.) 09 Jun 2023 19:16:29
I think he is dreadful. Can't be a decent cm if your first touch is woeful. Should be looking to sell for a couple of mill to a Championship side.
Would rather give Warrington a chance. At least when he plays he looks like he goes through different gears. Davies plays well within himself and is happy to get paid a PL wage whilst doing it.
{Ed025's Note - im with you JMW, if we are happy with players like Tom then that says a lot about our expectations for next season mate..
9.) 09 Jun 2023 19:53:22
Spot on Ed .
10.) 09 Jun 2023 20:13:07
Not overjoyed about Davies but not completely against it either. Could improve under Dyche. Still what, 24? Do a fill in job over the season. Then sell next summer for a few million. Obviously with reduced wages in contract. That happens it would be a happy ending in my opinion.
Let me get this straight. Begovic is allowed to leave but we are offering Lonergan a contract? Hard to beat Begovic as a back up keeper throughout the whole Premier League if ya ask me. Be surprised if he hasn't a club already.
Delighted Seamus is offered a contract. He will be needed and can fill many roles. Especially with Pat, Godfrey etc picking up injuries.
11.) 09 Jun 2023 20:17:53
its going to be a really hard season. I would rather give a young kid a go than davies but that sums up this sorry club and sorry manager.
12.) 10 Jun 2023 08:28:59
Begovic was offered a contract NBTB but declined it!
13.) 10 Jun 2023 09:43:04
Seen that after I posted that ToffeeDavey. Isn't it mad. Now we are apparently looking for a back up keeper. Maybe he just wanted to go. Can't see us getting a better one. The return of Robles may be on the cards. Wasn't Virginia out on loan?
14.) 10 Jun 2023 10:30:29
I'd put Harry Tyrer as back up. Had a cracking season at Chester (I think) . Seen him in pre season for us too and looks good shot stopper. Davies would be of use to a championship club as a make weight in any deals we may look at. I think Warrington is better than Davies. Still can't believe we let Price go. But if was his decision I suppose.
15.) 10 Jun 2023 15:07:58
That's it. Hard to see players come through the ranks then let them go for nothing. If Davies signs may get something for him in a year or 2 and he might help out in the meantime.
02 Apr 2023 21:41:43
Potter to Leicester?
1.) 02 Apr 2023 23:09:30
It would not surprise me. He has the credentials needed.
2.) 02 Apr 2023 23:31:56
Rodgers to Chelsea?
Who knows?
Bit early for either to walk into another job in my opinion.
3.) 04 Apr 2023 12:23:02
not long ago, people on here wanted him at everton, what do we know?

Could the Friedkins go for Ashworth and maybe Howe in the summer?
1.) 09 Dec 2024 02:59:41
Should we not act now Smith? They may not want a championship challenge.
2.) 09 Dec 2024 06:28:39
Sorry that should be Smit.
3.) 09 Dec 2024 09:30:03
Eddie Howe? Seriously? He’s struggling with Newcastle this season even with all the decent players he has, not sure he’d get a tune out of our team.
{Ed025's Note - i could think of worse choices Dan, at least hes an Evertonian and his teams do play decent football mate..
4.) 09 Dec 2024 10:08:15
I could think of worse choices also, just would hope we were maybe aiming a little higher in our managerial search.
He did well at Bournemouth but is struggling at Newcastle with a far better squad than we have and with money being spent by the club.
5.) 09 Dec 2024 13:21:50
Yes Ariola is a good choice for me, has proved it now already at this level, Eddie Howe too I think is a good choice and being an Evertonian and with his style of football you just never what he could do here at the new stadium…could be the perfect match actually!
6.) 09 Dec 2024 13:51:37
Ariola thomas Frank eddie howe carlos cobrehan potter big bird cookie monster no jokes aside they are all better options then dinosaur dyche i would just like a manager who can change different formations during games to either chase a game or try get 2 goals back from being a goal down also be a plus to use his substitute bench to have an impact aswell i can only dream though.
7.) 09 Dec 2024 20:38:35
Howe has finished 4th and 7th so not struggling too much. They will be top 10 again so not too bad considering
Their net spend is 45 million a year over the last 2 years.
8.) 10 Dec 2024 13:33:45
Howe is a young manager with a lot of experience in the Premiership. Something a lot of these foreign chaps don’t have. I for one think him and Thelwell would make a good team.
Can’t see us getting Ashworth.
9.) 10 Dec 2024 19:59:27
As long as it isn’t Southgate. Desperate for him to get a job somewhere else before we replace Dyche.
{Ed025's Note - that would be a nightmare BR..
10.) 10 Dec 2024 22:06:00
Could imagine it Ed25? We’d end up having all the duds like Maguire, Phillips and Shaw sniffing around the squad.
{Ed025's Note - absolutely BR, and the football would be no better than we have now mate, certainly one to avoid imo..
19 Sep 2024 21:28:59
Do all these players not train together and train for eventualities like illness and injuries?
I think he just has one plan, one team and when that's disrupted he doesn't have the skill to prepare for it or adapt to it.
All our squad should know how we play and what the drill is. But we look so dysfunctional.
1.) 20 Sep 2024 00:53:13
They do Smit, boot the ball upfield and lose possession, I don't know the stats but I would bet that we have much less possession than our opponents in every game. How often do we put more than two passes together before either losing possession or booting the ball upfield. It would appear that all members of the first team squad are well versed in this tactic and players promoted from the Under 21's or players brought in from other teams quickly adapt to this method of play which will from now on be known as Dyche-bootball.
2.) 20 Sep 2024 08:24:28
I can remember a time when your reserve team played to the same style as the first team. This was so that if you had injuries the reserve players could step in seamlessly to the first team.
Perhaps we should send our second team players to John Lennon airport to watch the planes. Get them use to watching things fly over their heads.
19 Aug 2024 22:29:29
Cheeky loan for Richarlison?
Sub and played the last 3 minutes for Spurs.
Can score goals across the front 3 positions.
1.) 19 Aug 2024 22:42:22
Can only hope.
2.) 20 Aug 2024 06:36:27
If he did a Pienaar then I’d be made up.
I don’t see it happening but I think it would help sort out the DCL/ forward lack of goals situation.
3.) 20 Aug 2024 12:31:18
He'd want to score and play football to much for dyche to be interested in him.
4.) 20 Aug 2024 17:45:32
If he played him up front on his own then nothing would change.
16 Aug 2023 18:14:38
Brilliant first interview with Harrison in the Echo and some of those stats will be greatly welcome in our team.
1.) 16 Aug 2023 18:33:19
Couldn't agree more Smit.
2.) 16 Aug 2023 19:02:38
He’s looks just the type of player we have been crying out for, hope Sean can get a few more in like him.
3.) 16 Aug 2023 19:31:23
We won't know until October.
4.) 16 Aug 2023 20:20:03
Why October? He's already running and him and Dyche said a few weeks.
5.) 16 Aug 2023 20:36:48
Three week recovery then international break anyway big Reg.

Will be up to speed for the hectic Xmas period.
8.) 17 Aug 2023 00:15:35
If we had 10 outfielders like him then we would win the league.
9.) 17 Aug 2023 05:43:11
Out for three weeks according to the lad himself so nice try putting another dampener on any news coming out of the club, dfs!
10.) 17 Aug 2023 07:32:04
Usual stuff no mate.
11.) 17 Aug 2023 08:59:07
He's our player now so here's hoping he recovers well and can show us what he can do
In the Echo BP he says a few weeks - not 3. Let's hope it not like the few weeks that we've been waiting for the MSP seal to be confirmed
I saw one article that said he has had it since 1st July so it's already 6 weeks so pretty serious. As I said though I hope to see him in action pretty soon.
12.) 17 Aug 2023 09:32:17
They don't live in the real World bw2412 v2.0. Confuse putting a damper on things with telling it how it is. Instance Everton put a £25 mill bid in, when they have done no such thing. I, like you, hope he is back in action sooner rather than later. I want all our players to be back in contention. When all fit we should have a good Squad. GB/ BP I attend home games (when able) with optimism and hoping that at last we will start firing. I think Dyche is (for me) the Everton Moyes that should never have left.
27 Jul 2023 18:38:12
Boulaye Dia with Keane going in the opposite direction.
Yes please.
1.) 27 Jul 2023 21:06:13
Maupay too please.
{Ed025's Note - yeah throw him in as a BOGOF..
2.) 27 Jul 2023 22:11:10
If you throw Maupay in they might just bog off.
3.) 28 Jul 2023 01:11:34
Keane and maupay Is it Xmas day already?!
12 Jan 2025 08:11:10
Def3nsively he might be better than Digne, going forward nowhere near and overall nowhere near.
12 Jan 2025 08:09:29
Anything from 2-6 weeks is expected but nothing confirmed until they know more. Let's hope it's just 2 eh?
08 Jan 2025 19:02:01
If TFG wanted potter they would have spoken to him as soon as they took over, even with a "hey in the summer you can come here". Dyche being rubbish would only accelerate that. But that's not happened so take that as he was never the TFGs target.
If you want something and it's available you go for it and they didn't.
Even west ham weren't sure on Potter and had interviewed other targets before making a choice.
07 Jan 2025 17:53:36
Moyes would be like that safe comfortable blanket you can hug until the summer, when you then take that rug and burn it in a big ceremonial bonfire. Well unless he gets us 10 wins and then we could hug it for another year.
25 Oct 2024 17:29:25
It will be a stepping stone for both parties. Everton will improve under them and will become a more prospective buying option. The Friedkins will move on and it might just get us into the thinking for the new super league which is inevitable.
13 Jan 2025 21:56:56
First press conference that's started on time in 2 years.
12 Jan 2025 14:50:12
A right winger and striker would be great. Shame Richys injury record is such. He'd be great to have back home. Can play all 3 forward positions.
Minimum a right winger. I think with Garner and Iroebgnum coming back the middle of the park can wait.
08 Jan 2025 18:57:20
Didn't Leicester cleverly ask for enough compensation from Chelsea for Maresca so they would be ok?
Sure that was why the figure was so high.
05 Jan 2025 08:52:25
That would get us over the 40 mark BR which will be plenty this seaon.
04 Jan 2025 22:51:41
That press conference sounds like someone who knows he's done.
