Is Nkounkou capable of playing in the premier league? His spell in Belgium seemed a mixed experience

Is he the striker that doesn’t score?

You're still wrong!
RLC was getting some game time towards the back end of the season and I’d imagine Gallagher would get in ahead of him in a straight shootout.
Kante could well be off, so that would leave Kovacic, Jorginho, Mount and RLC as his main competition.
Also, with them losing two centre halves to La Liga and Silva being 124, they may well decide to switch to 4-3-3 or similar.

Because he doesn't play very much and when he does he's often a wing back.

That's a lot of ifs.
If they're playing 4-3-3 the equation changes because he does fit into that quite well. But 3-4-3 I don't think he does at all. For me he's very defined as a box to box player in a three man midfield. I don't see any other role.

Well Allardyce was better honestly.
Neit comrade.
Ive actually forgotten the last time I was wrong.
Thinking back I doubt its ever happened.
So the lad himself will agitate you think?
I wouldn't totally rule us out of being in for him, a loan with an opportunity to play, we cover his significant wage., everyone reassess in 12 months.
If my memory is right, didn't he struggle for game time under Frank though, though Frank convinced him to sign on.
Absolutely no interest in signings until I see major movement in terms of sales
It is time to SELL

Adam Crafton Athletic report suggests Real are interested in Richy post the Mbappe snub. If thats indeed true Everton are potentially in a good spot leverage wise. For starters by having a suitor of such a big profile and resources, but second the potential need of the club to make a signing. Beyond the Carlo connection it does make some sense for Madrid. His workrate fits the scrappy mature no nonsense current squad.
I love Richy and always will but if this is indeed the end, a connection to Madrid is great grounds for an excellent return by Everton. And that should be our number one priority in relation to him as his leaving feels inevitable. Extracting top dollar for him is arguably the clubs the biggest catalyst to sustained stability. Such a move might also sell more prospects on our platforms potential in sell ons to the biggest teams in the world. Id be gutted but again its been expected for years now. I for one would be excited for him to play at such an echelon thats also not in England.

Pleasantly surprised at how Simms got on up North. I think we’d be crazy not to have a proper look at him in preseason and consider him as an alternative to signing someone in the most expensive position on the pitch (even as backup).
Agree re priorities. CBs who are quick and confident with the ball at their feet, and CMs who can receive and quickly transition to attack have to be the focus. Full-backs could well be sorted, as you say, and we’ve got players who can play behind/wide of the striker pretty well covered (relatively speaking…). GK could become pressing if we get the proverbial offer we can’t refuse for JP, but we can cross that bridge…

I wouldn't say agitate necessarily but he might ask. I also could just see him being the one they decide has to go since they probably need defenders and midfielders in.
