Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[riddick]

I am way behind on this because it's running pretty fn fast for some reason but I don't get why these contract details aren't public knowledge. It's one of the things I like about the sports in the States, you know exactly who is making what.

We actually paid quite a fee for Williams at the time.think it was around the 12m mark. Tarkowski is in a free.

That is a fair point to be honest. He's just started picking up little niggles which would be a concern. Once bitten twice shy with me and transfers now to be honest.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

A lot of money for a bang average player but players on a free will always be paid more let’s assume it is indeed £120k a weeks around £18 million in total over 3 years. If however you pay say £10 million fee and £70k a week over say 3 years is circa £ £20+ million.

It's 90k according to a more reputable source (at least for football - the rest of the Telegraph is a rag) than footyinsider

Nope

CB's are not 'on their way down' at 29 years of age.

In my humble opinion that's when their legs start to go....just my opinion brother.

The likes of Makalele, Essien, Kante, Gueye, Petit, Reid etc etc none of them where creative throw Pique into that too, they got the ball and gave it to the creative ones

All of these are much better footballers than people think though.

They may not be threading boss through balls all game but they rarely lose possession and are always available for a pass. I want my midfielders to want the ball at all times. Our midfielders have not done that for a long time.

What have I missed? Nearly 60 pages since yesterday, taking it there’s some substance to the Tarkowski chat?

Comparable:
Evans joining Leicester age 30.
Ash Williams joining us age 31
Dan Burn to newcastle age 29.
Craig Dawson joining West Ham age 30.

Mixed bag but id rather Tarkowski than spending 10 mil on Coady.

I'm still annoyed we didn't sign Evans when he went to West Brom.

 

[Street end man]

Just very encouraging to see talk of transfer action not 24 hours after the season ended. Normally we start looking in the first week of August

Hope Richie and Pickford sign new contracts next week and the transfer action picks up speed. Let's have a team to train in July.

 

[Stuartisitc1878]

No.

oh goody

I mean, generally speaking they kind of are. Obviously not everybody follows the same pattern so it's possible Tarkowski will get better and not peak til he's 35 but it's certainly not uncommon for a centre half to start to wane as they get into their 30s.

Telegraph reporting the interest. That's about it.

I was ridiculed for suggesting it by some posters still on here…

Still better than any of the defenders we have!
