doddisalegend Posted 1 July, 2016 Share Posted 1 July, 2016 seems like the penny is dropping on the Everton forum The way the market is at the moment this £100m "war chest" won't be going far. Ighalo £37.5m rejected! My word! Exactly. Been saying this for a while. When you see £20mill turned down for players like Troy Deeney...you know prices are going to sky rocket. Everyone has more money (TV Deal!)...so prices only go up. If the £100 million turns out to be on top of any budget we might have had post TV deal, then fair enough. But that amount on its own is starting to look a bit standard judging by the way prices are going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we to be jealous of them this season I wonder? Not sure about Benteke looks good in the right system (which might well be Palace with all those good wide players).

SuperSAINT Posted 1 July, 2016 Share Posted 1 July, 2016 Where've Palace got all their money from? Well I would have said they virtually paid for Townsend by selling Gayle.

the_emu Posted 1 July, 2016 Share Posted 1 July, 2016 why? what has happened to saints fans? he is by far their most influential player, their skipper and talisman (Deeney) if they sold him for £25m. who are they going to get to replace what he brings to that club on and off the pitch? Lambert was our talisman, in his first PL season scored the same goals as Deeney. He isn't worth 25m, and no one is irreplaceable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_emu Posted 1 July, 2016 Share Posted 1 July, 2016 What's noticeable is how many 5 year contracts are being handed out. (Possibly as a result of the TV cash too) Yep noticed the same thing. I'm wondering whether clubs are trying to tie down as many players as possible before the salaries increase in Sky money momentum and reach the stratosphere. Would be interesting to know whether they all have buy out clauses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nta786 Posted 1 July, 2016 Share Posted 1 July, 2016 Everton apparently going to buy Witsel for £30m. Probs a tabloid rumour but if true then that £100m is going quick as for VVD to everton- i truly hope we reject it- ask them for a £100m or no deal.

Chris27687 Posted 1 July, 2016 Share Posted 1 July, 2016 I like Witsel - He's a good player. I wouldn't pay £30m for him though, but I suppose Everton are probably going to have to start over-paying to get someone of stature across the line. He has 1 year left on his contract - that is an insane fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whelk Posted 2 July, 2016 Share Posted 2 July, 2016 Maybe being a Saints fan has softened me to losing players, but I think I would've taken both £25m for Deeney & £37m for Ighalo! So I suppose I should say fair play to Watford for standing firm. Not a case of taking £37m - Ighalo doesn't want to go so irrelevant what is offered. If he did want the move would clearly take it.
