Confirmed Signing James Tarkowski

[AussieToffee11]

Think this is very good business. An upgrade on what we have, and the economics make a lot of sense.

As has been pointed out, it allows us to likely move on two out of Mina, Keane and Holgate, which will allow us to invest elsewhere.

I hope the immediate focus is on a quality number 6.

I hope this is our line of thinking - Brands was abysmal at player trading lets hope Super Kev knows how to reshuffle his deck so to speak.

Although if its 3 at the back going forward I think we may either bring in 2x CBs and let 2 go or it'll be a straight swap Tarks for either Mina or Keane.

Think Lampard weirdly likes Holgate (as he does Kenny).

Nothing wrong with an athlete getting his time off with family before deciding

Irrelevant! Everybody has the right to mull over a decision that affects where they live/work
It's not an insult imo

Haha come off it.

He's from Manchester. He wouldn't need to even move home.

He knows what Everton are all about.

I've known we've been interested in him for 2 weeks - he'll have known longer.

Still, he needs to go on holiday to mull it all over?

The club are putting out comment about how we're moving to sign only 'hungry' players who want to be here.

Doesn't correlate to me with a player on his last pay day who needs 4+ weeks to decide whether he fancies it.

All that said, he's a bit better than what we already have, he improves us - it's pragmatic, provided the signing on fees/wage etc aren't daft.

I wouldn’t be moving 2 of those out tbh. I’d give Branthwaite a loan somewhere maybe.

We’re back to Moshiri’s first summer window and Ashley Williams. Six wasted years of bankrupting the club and waste.

 

[everton1953]

Steer clear of this Burnley clump. We need to lift our sights higher than this, otherwise we will never progress from the wreckage of this current squad.

 

[cantlivewithem]

Are we convinced he is not going to be another Ashley Williams type signing where he was a colossus for his old club and rubbish for us?

Or as someone rightfully put he could be another Distin.

My issue is either way there’s likely no sell on value from him same as the others so not the type of players we should be prioritising now.

If we do move any CBs on it could be Branthwaite to City and the slightly disappointing Godfrey.
Holgate is favoured by Lampard.

i`d be sickened if Man city got Branthwaite, he`s got too much potential for us to let him go. if we get Kartorski off of Burnley, we could sell Keane.

Bloke can’t be hungry/want to be here as well as be able to enjoy a holiday with his family first?

Plus, if it’s his last pay day, fair play to him in doing his due diligence first. He’ll have had options, he’s allowed to consider them.

You’re reaching I reckon mate.
