Remember (Walking In The Sand)
by THE NYLONS

Could see this coming from early in the week. Just hope he has a medical tomorrow and gets a trip to Bodymoor Heath and thinks this is the place i want to be. The alternative would be a nightmare .......

What is the relevance of that to us?

It's a story about Arsenal wanting Jagielka. You'd have to be paranoid to extrapolate from that that:

1. The deal will go through
2. The deal will go through extremely quickly
3. Everton, who are skint, are going to spend over half if it on one player
4. They're going to spend it on this player.

"rumours on twitter" is like a common mans version of SSN's "sky sports understands" - ie a hallmark of bullshit.

if they sell jaggs dont you think replacing him will be there number 1 priority?

plus kenwright will skim a good 10-12 mil out of that and give moyes 4-6 to spend,

when was the last time everton paid for a player? and surly 9.5 would break there transfer record. i really cant see them bidding in a million years

Everton don't come across as a club about to sign any 10m players.

Bilyanetinov, Fellaini, Yakubu, Johnston, Van der Meyde, Beattie... They buy a "major" player almost every season

Barring youth and freebies, they haven't signed a single player for nearly two years now, let alone a big signing.

Van der Meyde? A 2m signing six years ago?

Beattie? Also six years ago.

Is that worse than us selling 3 big players and bringing in one?

What has our transfer policy got to do with it? Everton haven't paid big money for years so the possibility of them finding ten million pounds down the back of Bill Kenwright's casting couch in the next 48 hours is very slim indeed.

Err, what has it got to do with our spending?

I'm pointing out that Everton have signed nobody for two years, and your examples of big signings are both out of date and a bit exaggerated, what with one of them having cost all of 2m.

Everton's chairman said last month money is tighter than ever, there would be no big signings, they've just been outbid on a 150k player, and spent  nothingnfor two seasons. In the context of CNZ, they're not really much to worry about, are they?
