Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread

[davek]

I wanted to avoid getting a Liverpool manager but here we are .

I wanted Nuno. I think he could have done better here than at Spurs.

We got Benitez and I'll back him until he proves unbackable after being handed a fair chance to manage a first team unravaged by injury and with more of his players.

Alright lids, own up. Who bought @davek a crate of super testosterone tablets for chrimbo?

Slightly off topic but transfer (and money we've spunked up the wall) related, Southampton's net spend since 2017 is 6.6 million, spent 205.1m, received 198.5m !!!

Sounds like us under Moyes

Never been a Digne fan, he had a decent first season but Barcelona don’t let great players go easy.

He was behind a prime Jordi Alba who was the best in the world…Digne first two seasons was absolutely brilliant and as a result won a place for the French national team.

So much for local bitterness

He plays only against the likes of Liechtenstein. He cant defend for toffee. Only number 3 left back for France.

He was there's and got slaughtered. Now he's our and shoulkdn't.

Did you dislike Beardsley, Ablett, Sheedy?

Could offer: Holgate, Kenny Gbamin and Iwobi in exchange ?

Ok thats worth 40 pence. Not much left!

Because they were as inflammatory and dismissive of our club as what Jaffa was weren’t they

Played at the Euros, started several World Cup qualifiers including against Ukraine who were second in the group. So no. He’s not always first choice but he’s selected fairly often.

Oh dear god.

Show loyalty to a man you slated royally when appointed.

Have you been permanently on the ale over the holiday period? It’s 4th of Jan now, you can put the bottle down. You honestly don’t know what you are writing any more do you? lollollol

Barcelona couldn’t afford to keep him, simple. My statement still stands

Yes, he is making it harder to do though. Seamus past his best as a right back then played left?

@davek is clearly on the wind up, not sure why anyone would bite, thats what he is looking for.

Not sure how anyone can back THE worst manager in our 143 history, got to be on the wind up, insane OR a K...............

My fear is Benitez turning us in to a 3/5 at the back team, it doesnt work for us.
