Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread

True but £12-16m with that amount of experience is a big gamble

Maybe but we have to pay what is being asked for.

So he vetoed this in the summer when he could have spent time bedding in, to now pay more for him and put him in a team that is struggling

 

[Nymzee]

Well we didn't actually need a LB did we until the man baby arrived.

But yeah, both are positive acquisitions but are going to need time.

No, we didn't, but then we definitely needed one as showcased by Godfrey and Coleman being used as left-wing backs in our last two games.

 

[BlueToff]

And we'll do well to get £30m for Digne given he isn't playing over Seamus Coleman at LWB.

@chicoazul got the scoop on every other prominent journalist.


lol lol lol

I hope this lad turns out to be good but bringing in 2 young full backs from diabolical leagues does feel a bit like moving the deck chairs about on the titanic.

Because of the manager, who shouldn't be here but instead is making these decisions.

I'm struggling to get excited about the signings tbh because of that.

Everton are set to complete a deal worth up to £16m to sign right-back Nathan Patterson from Rangers. (12M initial fee) @SkySportsNews

To be fair I'm personally more than happy to be digging for gems in weirder leagues. Signings from major leagues tend to go tits up for us.

He’ll be on a low wage as well which is a positive

Nice to see we're finally addressing a position of need and early in the window too.

Now, whose next?

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Quick, tell everyone we’re signing a right back 3 years too late!

Yeh which is much healthier for the club in general. Moshiri at an AGM with Brands a couple of seasons back said the aim was to sign young players for higher fees but lower wages. Seems like maybe that's what we're trying to do now.

Just cb, cm, am and a better back up striker than that fat toad Rondon and we might just scrape into the top 13 this season.
