Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

I think he’d get plenty of games here but West Ham are a far more attractive proposition regardless unfortunately

Now they are yes that's how far we have regressed and they've gone forward.

Really hope this is the week that we can see some new faces come in. Would love us to get a quality cm/cdm

If we get our business done before deadline day I'd consider it a surprise.

The problem is and I know you will disagree, but we arent even sure if the players you mentioned are good enough.

Thats the downside of buying younger players, im well aware of the upside.

Would you say that Myko, Patterson, Branthwaite, Nkounkou and Gordon would be "Good enough" for a 25 man squad?

I'd suggest only Nkounkou has some work to do.

Whatever funds we have needs to go on players in that age bracket. Chukwuemeka has been mentioned/suggested from Villa at £20mil. England u19 captain.

Surely it makes more sense to sign MGW + him over Cornet.

Lampard/Thelwell this window should be going for high potential English kids...theres enough experience in the squad.

Didn't Lamps say he wants a six last night? I do agree though it's a shambles we finished 16th and so far we have weakened ourselves in reality, Tarks helps the defence but losing Richy means we don't have the unpredictable now either...

I hope not. It's bad enough reading on here that people are wanting us to sign a player to play a position that hasn't been in use for about 30 years, we're absolutely doomed if our manager thinks the same

I think teams still use defensive midfielders mate

yes they do, but they are not doing the same job they were 30 years ago when the number on a players shirt indicated the role they played. The "number 6" role doesn't exist any more, the same as an inside half doesn't exist either.

No biggie anyway, just a pet hate of mine ?

 

[Thomasc]

As I’ve written before, apart from DCL there are absolutely no goals in this squad.

It needs addressing immediately or it’s bottom 3 for most of the season.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Must be expecting ALL of Doucouré, Davies, Mykolenko, Coleman and Gomes to simultaneously have the season of their careers because they'll all need to be chipping in with 3-5 goals each at this rate.

 

[WestStandLower]

Probably likes the London living and doesn't want to move out the city again.

His home is Slough. If any of you has ever had the pleasure ( cough cough ) to spend anytime there will know it’s not particularly attractive.

Holgate and Godfrey not good enough

Godfrey was definitely overhyped in his first few months. He was only flying into tackles because he has zero positional sense. Holgate is a superior defender right now.

The fact tarkowski is our only decent centre half and he has no protection from the midfield because Doucoure and Allan are jokes is a cause for concern

the fact we are not prioritising a centre half and a 6 is worrying

Lampard has already said he really needs a dependable 6. Having Tarkowski in the defense improves whoever is alongside him.

Why are we not utilising the loan market if we have limited funds

We have 50 mil from richarlison and two loans would cost a fraction of that

Loans generally happen when all other business is done and managers can see how the squad looks.

We'll buy 1, maybe 2 in the next 2 weeks and then grab a loan or 2 on deadline day.

Bobble reckons it is. Either that or we’ll be sacking most of the current names mentioned off and moving on to other targets.

 

[YoboCopter]

If we get a couple of midfielders are actual starting 11 isnt too bad its just any injuries ( which obviously happen) we are done

 

[roy vernon]

It will be interesting to see how the 5 sub rule works out. For clubs like present day Everton, it will surely mean increased chances of game time for the younger players.

Unless 'unforseen' circumstances happen, and then it may be the next week, or week after
