 A part of me is loving all this, fair play. |
Yes will all be worth it when he scores a 93rd minute winner for us at Goodison  |  |

In the last 10 seasons
Everton
Leicester
Southampton
Newcastle
Aston Villa
All of the above have finished 6th or higher on atleast 1 occasion, the idea that the top 6 is some mystical wall that can't be broken is a fallacy. It was once the top 4 until City got their lottery win and Spurs estbalished themselves under Pochettino.
We finished 15 points ahead of 8th and that was in a season of transition, Lukakus goals got us a total of 9 points last season so even without any of his goals we still would have finished 6 points clear of 8th. Considering we are moving to a new 55-60k seater stadium, are investing decent sums in the playing squad and have improved other areas of the pitch namely the GK, CB and the midfield positions with Gana, Schneiderlin, Bolasie, Klaassan and Sandro all signing the past season the league could effectively turn into a top 7.
In all fairness, even if we are still miles of the CL (which I agree with) o suggest Siggurdsson would rather stay fighting relegation than be playing in Europe next season is deluded tbh.
But Everton fans have heard it all last season:
Southampton fans said it over Koeman
Palace fans said it over Bolasie
Burnley fans said it over Keane [Post edited 24 Jul 2017 21:05]

And tell me how did you fare against us last season.....in our season of disarray?
We were even robbed of a win at Goodison under the stewardship of the clown Bob. You guys were lucky to get a draw at home against us |  |

Nobody on this board is suggesting a Siggy move would not be an attractive move and playing in Europe etc.... and the cash !!
What we are saying that if we value a player then you should step and pay up !
You blues fans have degraded our club on every level because you can't get your way and we're not rolling over by your demands.
As for your on pitch success - you should be finishing between 6th to 8th and you will finish there again this season | | | |

I woudlnt say degraded at all mate, have we had our manager or players talk up Siggurdsson like Mourinho/Cahill/Terry did with Stones? No
Have we had ex players come out telling Siggurdsson to hand in a Transfer Request to force a move like Liverpool have with Van Dijk? No
The simple fact is Everton have offered more money than Swansea will ever get for a 28 year old who'll never get another offer similiar.
Said player has since not travelled with the squad to pre season, missed time with said squad, and you guys are waiting for him to go before replacing him in time for the start of the season - in which case if you buy abroad it could take a few games for said player to get upto the pace of the league/understanding with his team mates.
Swansea are entitled to ask for whatever they want, but I personally think they are cutting of their noses to spite their faces when they narrowly avoided relegation last season and could be rebuilding the swuad instead of postering for weeks over a measly £5 million.
Players come and go mate, we sold Lukaku to Utd, they never degraded us they just offered big money (that wasn't the £100 million we wanted) we accepted and moved on. Obviously it's completely upto Swansea if to sell at what price and Everton have to put up or shut up, but to suggest Everton are degrading Swansea isn't true imo. [Post edited 24 Jul 2017 21:39]

Don't think keeping our best player would be a disaster myself. |
No,it wouldn't. Keeping him until the end of August, even the eve of the season would be if he isn't going to stay.
I think we could add some genuine depth to a weak first team pool with that kind of money. | | | |

Exactly my thoughts mate, yet some of your fans seem more bothered about "not looking weak" I just don't understand why you would want him around when he wants out. Lukaku is the best striker I've seen in an Everton shirt since the 80's yet soon as he rejected that new deal I wanted him out on July 1st.
Personally I think it'll go to £45 million rising to £50 million with add ons as Koeman clearly wants him, but I think Swansea should be taking the money and reinvesting in players who want to play for the shirt.
I may come across as condacending but I'm merely giving the opposing viewpoint that many fans from other clubs have When they seen that bid rejected. I like Swansea as a club and hope they have a good season. Got alot of time for the Welsh anarl! [Post edited 24 Jul 2017 21:59]

And that was with Bob, in all his glory.
Llorente was left completely out of the lineup, and Borja sat on the bench the whole game. That's because Bob's brilliant new idea that afternoon was Siggy at striker. And our CB's were Jordi and Fed. The backup CB was VDH, with Mawson also left completely out of the lineup.
Good times, LOL. [Post edited 24 Jul 2017 22:03]

You obviously don't read your own messageboard if you think your fans haven't degraded us in this saga.
We have had a similar bid from Leicester although it was a massive £5M less that yours.

Pay the price or bugger off.

Im suprised, but i think youll need to pay £50m, with none of these silly add-ons on the never never |
We got £75 million upfront for Rom mate, if you get £40 million which is more than half what we got for a 23 year old forward who bangs 25 goals a season. Siggurdsson is 28 with little resale value who whilst had very good stats isn't on the same level of player as Lukaku. The likes of Morata went for what £65 million? Bernado Silva £42 million? Salah £38 million?
I just think we've offered more than what you'll get elsewhere, as they say something is only worth what someone is willing to pay. The markets crazy and once you get that £50 million every club out there will be looking to add another £5-10 million onto your targets which you'll pay as deadline day approaches.
It's madness mate. [Post edited 24 Jul 2017 22:21]
