Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread

If Digne played against Brighton and suffered a long term injury.

What happens to the FFP levels then if the plan is to sell?

This is the crux of it and is the reason why I think Rafael isn't playing Digne. If Digne gets injured his transfer anywhere is cancelled. Meaning out winter plans are out the window, unless we sell a Richarlison or DCL.
 
From Paul Joyce? I posted in the transfer thread back on September 1st. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/...ssness-of-previous-everton-managers-qwsljg5bd

Here's a quote from that article from the coaching staff (wonder who that was...)

“The team wasn’t coached for 18 months,” was the rather damning verdict of one senior member of staff at Everton. Yet Benítez is not a magician and he will be unhappy with how the window has played out.

Here's the bit about the signings and who made them...

Everton are fortunate that Benítez kept in touch with Townsend from his time on loan at Newcastle, as well as Rondon — who he worked with at Newcastle and Dalian Pro — and persuaded both to sign up. He also had the contacts to set up the deals for Gray and Begovic.

That Benítez has done so neatly turns the spotlight on the director of football, Marcel Brands, who is supposed to set the course in which the club is headed.

Much of the fall-out among supporters around the lack of signings has centred on Everton’s failed search for a right back to compete with the captain, Seamus Coleman.

Brands put forward names. He seemed preoccupied with the Holland international Denzel Dumfries, who moved to Inter Milan. Two failed bids were submitted for the Rangers teenager Nathan Patterson. There was also a push for Arsenal’s Ainsley Maitland-Niles, but Benítez was never keen on the England international.

Tenuous.
 

Turkish agent of Cenk Tosun:
“Cenk does not want to leave in January. He has a contract until the end of the season and he wants to give something back.
He feels he can contribute and is not the type to sit on the bench and be happy."
What it means: Tosun does not want to be paid in Turkish lira, as it is very dodgy right now. He is happy to sit on his arse collecting his big bucks as he has a no shame no stress life.
I say play him in central midfield versus Hull and hope we run his tendons into the ground.

Wants to give something back ? Then please leave, and get off our wage bill

Can he give back his wages from the last few years?

Both flanks have players with positive profiles now.

Hopefully a lot of outs and a few ins to fix the central areas.

We've spent about £5.5mil.

12mil + 13mil (approx) = £25mil

£25mil ÷ 4.5 = £5.5mil
So what?

He's our player, he was on the bench, he's available. We need points.
 
But that's hardly conclusive, is it?

It suggests Brands was preoccupied by Dumfries.

Maybe, maybe not.

But Brands isn't here now and...for good or bad...Patterson will be a Benitez signing.
I don't see your point?

Patterson was scouted for at least some time last season, wasn't he. Clearly. And clearly, Benitez and Brands both liked the look of the lad.
