Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread

[Bluestar]

Basically, backs up what I said earlier.

If this signing would be a view to him being Digne's replacement in 6-18 months' time, then great. Sensible move. He's got that time to bed into the country, the team and he's only 22 and very raw, so will need time.

it's not a sensible move to just try and flog a key player who is quite literally better than Mykolenko at everything right now

All true, but only if the manager plays him.

You need to put those stats upmagainst Godfrey because sadly, Digne is gone.

You were all saying this in the summer, aren't you bored of it yet?

Did we, or did we not, end up with Salomon Rondon, that everyone said was signing all summer?

This.

I dont get why some of our fans cant accept when a player isn't stopping around.

We all knew James was a goner yet some still were holding hope of him staying / putting him in their starting 11's pre matches lol

Digne is gone already lads - accept it and move on.

James - wanted out / needed his wages off the books

Digne - Fallen out with manager / supposedly had his agent leaking things to the media.

Digne is gone already lads - accept it and move on.

Yeah it happened once so we should all accept this is how it is forever

Once you've crossed Benitez thats you done at the club.

No matter what you offer to the team. It's no way to run anything.

Yes, players come and players go, except at Everton where they stay for the rest of their career or until they run their contract down.

We are in a weird bubble where normal transfer rules don’t apply.

He'll get thrown in straight away... we'll get tonked...and then everyone will blame him.

The everton way

He got rid of Xabi Alonso because he missed a champs league game for the birth of his child.

Levels.

That's objectively a bad thing. It might be ok if he were a manager on the level of someone like Pep. But he's closer to Dean Smith at the minute.

And that's an absolutely terrible way to run a club. Handing complete control to an egomaniac who also happens to be awful at his job. Great.

Dean Smith's better

Then if we signed someone for £25mil on a 5 year deal only £5mil is shown immediately with the remainder shown at £5mil a season for the balance of the contract.

So in theonry, we sell for £25mil, buy for £25mil and were £20mil up this Jan.

Im not understanding why we would need to sell a player for equal or higher value.

We could sell Holgate for £5mil and Mykolenko for £20mil.

?

He's orchastrated it from the off right down to offing the medical staff.

Don't be surprised if we sign a bunch of completely off the radar players (like this left back) that he'll have lined up for a while to complete his Masterpiece.

He's basically a male Cersi Lannister from Game of Thrones.

Just saying it is closer haha
