We not appealing? Was never a red card but it's the difference between a 0 game ban and 5 game ban it's worth trying!

Anyone think there will be anyone joining or leaving today?

You do know that site is just a random transfer generator. It even says so on the home page!!

I'm sure Koeman will be asked about it today by a journo.

Dominated the game for 90mins. But it did show if we had a decent forward it would have been a cricket score tonight!!

Do you think we will sign a forward to be first choice (even with Pelle back) or do you think we will get one that when Pelle is fit will be the sub option?

I can see quite a few being released in the summer. Maybe we just have to accept that the current crop, haven't progressed. You can't expect there to be a Bale, Ox, Shaw or even JWP every season. If you did then surely other clubs would be producing a youth player a season into their first team, but they aren't. Our expectations are high, maybe we just have accept that the next one might not come along for a couple of years.

Could be a message to the board that we can't just use them to fill out the squad? Bit of pressure to buy in this window rather than say use Gallagher? He sees these players much more than us, so to those saying lets just play all the kids...looks like they need more time or simply aren't as good as everyone bills them up to be.

Maybe ask again in March.

Just a FYI there are some duplications on that list under media and staff. Also, why the 3 chosen forum members?

It's their business model. Sign tons of youngsters and send them out on loan. Let other clubs develop and progress them. They then sell them on for more money and very little outlay over the period out on loan. Allows them to then sign a big player with the sales of lots of smaller players.

Wonder where Gaston would go though, many overseas windows have already shut. If he isn't going to feature I'd rather ship him out and use his wages to sign a better version of him

You do realise you have delay post? Write a post with a publish time, so this would have been set up much earlier in the day.

Just needs a goal, thought he was shooting on sight a little today but other than that he's getting back to form

Needs to get involved more. Demand the ball.

Think you missed a few names off the list...

How much do we miss Morgan! We need that player who keeps the midfield ticking over. JWP and Davis just not involved enough.

Someone who can play off of Pele and can create. Thats all we are missing at the moment

And that is why you don't manage a business!!

They won't spend the money it would take on signing VVD to be back up. They aren't going to drop their capt or Stones to play him.

Everton only need a centre back if Stones leaves...

You can't expect to have half a team of academy players if each season we selling our best couple of players to fund a rebuild of the squad. You would need to buck this trend IMO if you wanted to achieve 50% academy

Or maybe that they have been asked not to mention about possible transfers until at medical stage. Doesn't mean we have one almost there.

Any news on the post match interviews about new signings?

Why would he swap not making the Swansea team for not making the Saints team??
