Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread

I saw that....It states he is considered a valuable part of the squad. Standards really have dropped
or they are trying to suggest he is valuable, knowing Newcastle have shedloads of money, thus, cleverly, driving the price up!! But then, this is Everton, so may have unwittingly suggested that!
 

If Sarri wants Allan then id expect it to be an obligation in the summer.

If we are around breakeven now for 2021/22 season then Digne leaving + Holgate and Allan on loan (perhaps) then we would be well up for the season*

If obligations then kick in for Allan and Holgate during summer then we could start off with £20mil in the positive before offloading the out of contract bunch and making sales.

Hypothetically just being up this season + again next season (profit and sustainability wise) and were 2 out of 3 seasons in profit which may actually allow us to drop £100mil in season 3.


*we could still sign a defensive midfielder now to replace Allan and make signings in summer and still we well up due to how its all calculated.



If we could sell Digne + loans with obligations for Holgate and Allan...

Then now + summer sell Mina and Keane while bringing in Badiashile and a defensive midfielder (Kamara/Guimaraes/Tchouameni etc) then we'd be laughing.

I keep repeating myself but we have 9 players to move on aside from those out of contract in summer...ideally 5 to go this window.

Have to say that if it was the case that we signed Mykolenko, Patterson and Badiashile (or similar profile) then this could be our best January window ever.

Massive turning point but lets see how it unfolds.
If only real life was as easy as being a football manager on the internet!

For me these things are very simple. Allan was brought in to play Ancelotti’s system. If Benitez has concluded he’s not what we need now though, let’s get him out the door for decent value and someone who does fit in.

I’m just not sentimental about any player in the current squad. They’ve all disappointed me so many times. Yeah I think Allan is one of the better ones we currently have, but I’m not going to give it a second thought if he was moved out and we got an effective replacement.

Pace, power, technique, desire. Every player coming through the door now should have as many of these as possible.

Problem is mate, that is a very complex thing, how many windows and players have we gone through in that central midfield since Idrissa left and how much money and wages squandered - Gbamin, Delph, Doucoure, Allan, Gomes via a season of Davies and Gylfi manning the engine room and we still could do with a central midfielder.

Its a hard thing to do at the best of times but in Jan, a limited market, when your form is the worst almost in the league and your staring down the barrel of a relegation fight.

Id turn down 30 mill for Allan at the moment, so letting him out on loan given the context is ridiculous. That said its so bananas its probably no where near true, but Everton and what not.
