Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread

ffs no we don’t we have money we won’t have to sell a star to spend jesus christ

fashion lol lol lol lol now that’s funny

Sadly we do mate - it doesnt matter how rich the owner is if you spend over the limit of the rules you face a points deduction / transfer ban etc.

We are VERY close to the limit.

i can’t see it mate. let’s stay up and then start the rebuilding process

Yep thats all that matters right now. Although a cup run would be nice too.

And to people are turning their noses up at someone like RLC, you realize who our current options are, right? He slots straight into our first 11 if he comes.

In all seriousness, if we have a fit squad, I don't think he gets in our team.

He started 3 games for Lampard at Chelsea.

Of all the players we've been linked with, he and Barkley are the ones who make the least sense to me

If we play a midfield 3 he probably does. Our midfield is rubbish and we can't keep playing 442.

You're talking about a conversation which is RLC vs Gomes, effectively, and I don't think it's anything like as cut and dried as people seem to think

He wasn't a regular starter for Fulham last season from what I remember.

Carries the ball well enough, strong. But he has all the defensive frailties of Gomes and slightly less guile, albeit he's more of a physical presence and quicker across the ground.

Surely there are better options?

Gilmour is one think Lampard would really want here

I'd nobble Gemma Collins to get Gilmour here

 

[bluestevon]

Gilmour a buy Alli a loan - gilmour has a knock atm though I think.

1. We never have a fit squad
2. He’s playing even if we do. Think he’s as good if not better than both Allan and Doucs
3. Absolute worst case he’d be our 3rd best midfielder when all players are fit so gives us an option/sub we could use when needed that isn’t a ridiculous drop in quality

 

[mikel_88]

i think we will get more mate deffo MF

Really hope right we need it badly atleast 2 for me but 3 and would give a massive lift. Is important that they have quality

There probably are but its 29 January and our midfield options are very bad.

We need to play 3 in midfield to make up for weaknesses in our midfield options. That means we need to get someone in, even if its not our first option on the list.

I'd nobble Gemma Collins to get Gilmour here

He's back at Chelsea rehabbing a ankle knock with his return to Norwich to be assessed as they haven't met the requirements on games played for him

I couldn't possibly disagree more with your 2nd point, but opinions I guess
