Alex Iwobi (Out)

[Maybe]

We're lucky that this guy has some market value while being absolutely average, we should accept the next offer without any hesitation.

In general he was average, but he has some standout abilities that could be used better than what we did.
I wouldn't accept anything bellow 35m. A player that can turn the pace of the game on his own will always have value on the market, and Iwobi does have that.

The thing is, Everton are stupid enough to offer more than that.

 

[samshere]

His first touch alone is worth 40m.

 

[Sammy1887]

His first touch alone is worth 40m pesos..

Fixed it for you.

I'm worried that Everton won't come back with another offer.

That’s what I’ve been worried about as soon as we rejected that offer.

The past few seasons we’ve been offered good fees for our deadwood.

Iwobi 30m (Everton)

Chambers 20m (Leicester)

Elneny 10m (Leicester)

That’s 60m right there that could have improved the squad. I’m praying that Everton come back in for him.

 

[zilfy]

Iwobi's a good impact player off the bench, but as a starter looks like a completely different prospect

Worth keeping as a specialist sub?

Nah, take the money

To be honest, I wouldn't say those figures are that spectacular at all given the current climate.

Tyrone Mings went for 25m this summer. A player with a grand total of 17 PL appearances, Chambers has played over 100 PL appearances. Maguire went for 80m. I'd say based off those numbers we'd be ripped off to accept anything less than 30m, unless we were getting a nice hefty sell on clause included.

Iwobi is a similar position really - over 100 PL appearances for a young player who is not unwanted by his current club. Would be mad to accept £30m. Somewhere near £40-45m is about the right valuation for him (again unless including a hefty sell on clause).

Elneny is probably the only one here that now in hindsight looks like we should have sold for £10m. But I think most of that is down to him being frozen out under Emery. It's hard to get good value for players you clearly do not want

 

[tap-in]

His first touch alone is worth 40m.

Unfortunately his other touches reduce it somewhat. I'd take £30m for sure, especially if we could then go back in for Upamecano.

Yesssssssssssss

God bless Everton, bankrolling us yet again.

 

[Hunta]

Yesssssssssssss

God bless Everton, bankrolling us yet again.

What’s it say?

 

[Rex Stone]

What’s it say?

They’re refusing to give up on Iwobi, will come back in and see if we want to sell.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

What’s it say?

Nobody tell this mug what it says. Should've never blocked a bringer of constant news.

 

[al-Ustaadh]

What’s it say?

Basically, they haven't given up on buying Iwobi. They're supposed to come back in soon with another bid.

 

[Sniper Mik]

Never give up Everton. We're counting on you

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

They better do it now so we'll have time to get someone in

 

[Hunta]

Nelson and Saka catching bodies.

Mkhitaryan next, blimey.

 

[2Smokeyy]

Everton need a CB too. I think Chambers would be brilliant for them

 

[jmsmtthw28]

Everton should offer 50m rn and force our hand

 

[Chancellor]

Everton need a CB too. I think Chambers would be brilliant for them

Mustafi will fit in better. A return to home.
