I can’t fathom how you think it’s easier to replace a guy that scored 17 goals for us last season at short notice?

Well that’s neither here nor there. I’m laughing at your claim that Hamer is easily replaceable. What that has to do with COH and Vik I’ve no idea.

Yeah, they'll have a list of players and they'll be on there as well.

But having sold Richarlison if I was an Everton fan i'd want them to be looking higher than did well in the championship for their new striker

Disco dancing feet there Perry. Out of the 'big 3' he is the easiest to replace. No denying that.

Teams spend years hunting for a 20 goal a year forward, yet they are the easiest to replace? Are you pissed up?

Yes but they are in the Premier League… Therefore it’s an upgrade for Viktor

I personally think there will be three worse teams than Everton this season anyway but that’s another debate

Nope, just a bloke that realises a fancy DMC is far easier replaced than a AMC (that we base our whole system around) and an extremely good Stiker. Hardly rocket science.

What on earth is going on? Have people genuinely forgotten that goals win you football matches? Potential 20 goal a season strikers at Championship level or higher are at an absolute premium. You fall extremely lucky once in 20 years and pick a player up for peanuts that goes on to hit 17 goals and all of a suddenly they’re easy to replace at short notice.

Don’t get me wrong I love Hamer and agree he’s right up there last 15 years, but harder to replace than Vik? Have a day off

I never said he was harder to replace than Vik merely stating how good he is .

If Vik is sold for a large amount this season will be about maintaining championship status. We can then look at bringing in 2 or 3 higher quality players next season to strengthen a few positions

Sell him and with O'Hare's injury chucked in it would make things bloody difficult. The short term cashflow issues need to be balanced against the much more serious problems of relegation

If he is sold the optimism will subside. Unless it's really decent money with big sell on clauses, we should keep hold of him.

If there is one I doubt it's overly significant. He was a bit part player for Swansea and looked incredibly raw during his loan spell with us. There wasn't really grounds to put in a massive sell-on clause.

They’d have nothing to lose in doing so - I doubt we’d have been dictating terms.

The early season optimism is already disappearing with ground situation so to lose any of the three players will kill it stone dead.I am more concerned about what robins is feeling at this time as he's been let down by the club again after being given no real money after record season ticket sales and the CBS debacle,gutted for him and us.

If Vic goes that’s as good as our season over before we even start . No chance of top 6 . And no ambition from SISU . MR will walk .
£25 million should be our asking price no less .

No, but I doubt they would've put in a massive sell-on clause just because.

Otherwise by that logic every young player sold by a PL club has a massive sell-on clause attached to their deal and I very much doubt that's the case.

I'd imagine as a point of policy some PL clubs will insert one into the deal but I suspect that it's still relative to the talent they're selling.

Brewster for instance wouldn't have the same sell-on fee inserted into his deal as Gyokeres may/may not have.

It’s a no lose situation for them though, I’d imagine they have one of at least 20%.

True, like I said I'd imagine a number of PL clubs put one in to safeguard themselves so I'd imagine it's more than likely one is inserted in there but I'd question how sizeable it actually is.

To be fair though I could be wrong as you do hear of some extreme ones - like Newcastle inserting a 40% sell-on clause of the profit made from the sale of Armstrong or 30% on the sale of Ivan Toney.

He is a cut above the rest of the squad and was able to create something from nothing - without him we never looked like scoring.

I guess it makes sense to SISU to cash in now. Everton are desperate for a striker, and now with the window slowly ticking by would be a good chance to demand a good fee.
The player himself would surely be attracted by a premiership team and the huge pay rise that will inevitably come with it, and we could use the money to bring in a replacement striker and an AM player.
And I'm sure SISU would bank plenty as well.

As fans we would be devastated, as Gyokeres is irreplaceable to us at present, but that's football at this level.
And let's not forget that only 12 months ago, certain people on here were questioning his signing!

It is what it is!
Time to recalibrate our expectations for this season?

Well look at their owner for that one. When Gyo was going through that rich vein of form last season there was a fair bit of talk on the Brighton forums of ‘did we put a clause in’ and nobody seemed sure except to suggest at most it’d have been 15-20% on profit made in exchange for accepting a lower fee.
