The Official Everton thread...

A draw played in very polite circumstances with Naysmith getting on the score sheet. Young Besic looks the real deal. COYB

[hilly10]

Bit of talk that Mica Richards is of intrest to us

[m3sye]

Big turn out by "the people's club" for Osmans testimonial !
Why so few ?

[hilly10]

Besic does indeed look the real deal

[hilly10]

With touches like that he will soon endear himself to the fans. Reminded me of young Duncan Mckenzie

Bet he can't jump over a mini though!

[hilly10]

I wonder if we are going to have a last foray in the transfer market before the window shuts. RM did say he expected a couple more signings.

It's a pity that Sunderland have grabbed Rodwell, i'd hoped he'd come back to us, Any news on the Mica Richards rumours?

[hilly10]

We got our Granddaughters first kit at the game on Sunday. just need to get her to her first game at the hallowed ground, then she will be touched by what is the greatest club on earth.

I`m told we offered loan terms for Rodwell,with a view to a permanent but not at the £10m Sland paid.
No interest in Richards a week ago, so i would be surprised if this came off.

Good news regarding the Stones contract,obviously his agent situation must have been sorted out.

McCarthy still has a offer on the table, hopefully his situation will be sorted one way or the other soon.

Just Mirallas to tie down, then we have all our key players on long term contracts.

Might be some news on Nolito in the next few days.

Last i heard was, the deal had stalled,(ACON had something to do with it) but not dead in the water the press had reported.
Might still go through.

[hilly10]

Its on Sky Sports Astu as agreed a season long loan with us.

[Blue62]

This is a very unusual window by our standards, I am now very worried about our prospects next term, it is just not meant to be like this

[hilly10]

I think RM is building quite a nice squad. Little snippet of an interview BK did on Sky Sports radio he sounded estatic on the transfers never heard him so buoyant . COYB

[aaak]

a friend was bemoaning how poor we've been in pre-season games.
I'm a great believer in poor preseason, good season and vice versa.

I would read nothing into this pre season especially being after a World Cup. Some players have only just got back to their clubs. Look how many players that will be the basis of our first eleven were available 50% I would bet. No its means nothing this season, don't worry if they gel we are going places this season, Europe for one

[hilly10]

Reports are that we have sold 30,000 season tickets for this season. If we start well it go higher. We might need that bigger stadium sooner. COYB
