We offer £20 for Stones, so I doubt it has anything to do with that. Mou just doesn't want Pedro.

Dont seem to want or apparently need anyone bruv.

This does make me smile.

One thing I hope he improves on is the management of our squad players. As we saw in the past two seasons some players are more equal than others and get played unless injured, not only tiring them out quicker but also demotivating the ones that don't feature too regularly. The way we keep losing these depth players like Luis, Schurrle, Mata, Ba, Salah just places extra strain on an already small squad that probably won't see more than 2 arrivals excluding the direct departures.

Mourinho: 'We are working on different things. We had to build a football team last year; now we are trying to add new qualities. #CFCTour

Jose: 'The [transfer] market is what it is.' He adds clubs only have to pay for players what they are willing to pay. #CFCTour

Mourinho says it seems like the transfer window is closed now so maybe it would be better to wait until 1 September to make a bid. #CFCTour

WTF?

Mou makes burn the Spanish football, again...

"The salary of Casillas is outrageous"

If you could read the comments of the people on the spanish press haha. Everyone in totally rage, insulting, and saying a thousand things despising Mou.

Meanwhile, Mou should be resting in his house with a smile. The biggest troll ever.

Haha Mourinho is still making front page news on Marca and AS (based on a few words in an interview with the Guardian) and they call him obsessed?

"So, are you confused for the our transfer market?...... Would be a shame who someone confuse you even more".

[Pizy 18,552]

In other words, Everton have made it clear that Stones isn't for sale, we aren't interested in Pedro or know he's off somewhere else, and the Witsel rumors are bullshit.

"Doing it with the same squad" as José said is looking likely. Dangerous.

Kind of ironic that we had the best defense in the league last season and are after almost exclusively defensive players this summer. Who could've imagined at the close of the season that we could conceivably start the 2015/16 season with Falcao as our only attacking signing?

Almost mind boggling how everyone here can realize we need another source of goals from an attacking position but it's apparently not a priority at all for the club.

People said Casillas and Mourinho hated each other the picture here states otherwise

Everton don't have the power to say anyone "isn't for sale". He'll push for a move.

Everyone needs to be better this season, not just the players.

I will not mind finishing second only if we gamble on youth.

I mean giving them a real go like traore, rlc and such.

Not just one game here and there and nothing sustained.

Other then that, I expect us to win it again it this season.

I especially like the part where he says

  Quote

"So we have to improve what we have already. We are trying to give them some new qualities, try to be a little bit more unpredictable and go through the season with high motivation."

I love unpredictable teams and I think we should prepare ourselves for something along the lines of our first half of last season. I believe that's where we're moving.

None of our key players played during off season, so I expected a rested, confident and in-form team. The only first team player who's missing part of pre-season is Willian. Give him a proper rest, start playing him a couple of weeks into the season and we basically have the first team rested and prepared. I'm confident we'll win titles again even if it feels a bit underwhelming to know we didn't sign any first team player.

Judging by his quotes, we are in for a frustrating season. Puts more reliance on work rate rather than technical ability which is frightening.

Work rate can win you titles. Hard work, dedication, fighting for that last ball.

A great team was never made of players who had hard work exceed technical ability.

[illmatic 901]

If these four goals make that change his opinión about new signings, then I'm glad for that awful defeat..

[Despiadado.Maleante 1,046]

Hope he realises the problems in the squad now.

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Pedro and Witsel in before transfer window closes or this will be happening more often next season. Can see this season a repeat of 2010-11 but with Jose not getting sacked at the end and we go spend big again next summer even though we should be doing it now.
