Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread

[kenada_blue]

1) We have a non-functioning squad, with immediate needs at LB and RB. How on earth is buying an LB and an RB not a good move in that scenario?

2) Explain what you mean by turning into Southampton

3) When was the last time we bought a youngster with the deliberate aim of playing them regularly in order to sell them for a profit two years later? We often play youngsters out of desperation because too many of our more experienced signings are lame muppets, and we often get mugged by "bigger" clubs when we unearth a gem and are forced to let them go. But other than Stones and Lukaku, when have we ever shown any hint that it was a defined, planned strategy?

1 - It's a good move. The LB situation is purely one created by the manager when it wasn't an issue. The RB one is we've found an understudy to Coleman, not a replacement yet.

2 - Southampton. Great academy. Blood youth. Yo yo in the prem to championship, best to hope is a top 10 finish each season.

3 - I'm mearly reflecting some posters need to feel that "buying young to sell high" is a positive rather than... buying good players for a system regardless of age.

Mate I can categorically say that Patterson is a far better player than Seamus at this point.

Jon Joe Kenny is too.

Funny how everyone cares about possession all of a sudden. When we played possession football everyone hated it.

6 leeches leaving Everton Football Club never to return, I think we should hold a celebration of some sort on the forum.

At least 3 of those will probably get an extension

If either of them can get out and stop one cross once then they are already better at defending.

Stat heads seem to show they don't

Different between possession and being out done by Burnley for keeping the ball.

Would just like the possession to be above 35% please Raffa

 

[kenada_blue]

That's the spirit

I give up

That's not slagging the players off. That's slagging the manager

Jon Joe Kenny is too.

Far better than JJK even

Far better than JJK even

I hope so.

Just won't be surprised him looking at what Coleman does for the next season and a half from the bench

1-2 of the keepers won't go.

It was about 6 months ago and I can't really remember it.

I do agree with this to an extent but also I'd say the last time we were consistently a good side was that first season under Martinez when we were keeping the ball brilliantly.

Our complete inability to keep hold of the ball and pass it about under Benitez and for the latter stages of Carlo's time here has been absolutely inexcusable. Our fans aren't bothered about winning the possesion percentages every game but we simply have to improve our ability to retain possession - especially when we're being pressed, we fold too easily.

See Rafael is signing Rooney’s players in the hope they struggle and the roo way rumours die down… cementing his place here … genius

There's only Tosun's hairline getting extended there pal nothing else and that happens every year..
