Speculation Motown's hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded Winter 2016/17 rumours thread

[Feriol]

Sounds like a decent player, but I would like to see some experience and leadership qualities brought into the squad.

 

[glyn]

Let's hope he's ready for the Premier League.

"Ndidi can play in the centre of defence or as a midfielder in front of the back four..."

Isn't that what Amartey was touted as being able to do?

He has.

 

[Lako42]

Yes, but as I said, our scouting and transfer activity has been a bit shit, which means we need a new, betterer one.

 

[SJN-Fox]

£15m+ fee agreed for Ndidi apparently ...

A look at Ndidi from whoscored.com

Sounds promising! Although also sounds like they've based on just a handful of Europa League games

The part about the scout seems to be true at least. Could be lazy journalism but could also be pretty bad.

Frank Lampard???? (jr)

Clearly Mourinho getting revenge for us signing Kramaric ahead of Chelsea.

If true this would seem CR is looking to play the same high intensity game as last season, I wonder if he was scouted last season? I would not be surprised if there is a huge influx of talent inbound to Everton, cant help but think that Steve Walsh had decided to move to Everton a long time before the end of the season and as a result has hidden some gems in his back pocket.

Question is did we try and recruit in the midfield and failed or the coaching staff simply got it wrong? one thing is for sure we need vitality in the centre of the park.

We already have a totally unfounded rumours thread.

Sky Sports are renowned for spurious rumours?!!?

Until it's confirmed by the club, it's a rumour.

 

[City Fan]

Until it's confirmed by the club, it's a rumour.

Especially as Skysports have said "reportedly" so, it's not even their own sources.

 

[yackandandah]

I'm a tad concerned about this official unconfirmed and reported rumour deal... sorry, swoop... for Ken Ndodi. Bit early innit? Talk about saying 'hey guys, I'm available. Anyone wanna scupper the deal? 'cause, ya know, it is only unofficial unconfirmed official rumour'.

And Plank Lampard - no, just no. Remember what happened last time we signed an ageing ex-Chelsea pensioner in search of a final pay cheque? Chillwell will have his cheek broken (well, you wouldn't assault #nofuchsgiven now would you? Not even when he's asleep)..... sorry, some things just stick with me. I'll never forgive that odious little *choose your preferred insult*

If we needed reassurances, Lord McLeish has spoken...

Personally I think the central midfield signing in January is absolutely pivotal to our season.

Personally I think the central midfield signing in January is absolutely pivotal to our season.

Or the rest of the reason could hinge on that signing.
