Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread

Need pace around him though.

Allan, Gomes, Da Beek

Would get the run around every week.

Doucoure cant come back soon enough.

If VDB is the only signing it's a concern yes. We desperately need more mobility in midfield I am guessing Lamps will give Gbamin/Onyango more games though

 

[MisterJ]

Our best 3 midfielders are Dacoure, Allan and somebody who hasn't signed yet.

Lampard?

VdB walks into our team at present, and would give us a semblance of creativity in the middle of the park. We’d need another one alongside him who could tackle.

the only mobility Gbamin has is a scooter.

Does show the utter stupidity of getting el ghazi in on loan - means we can only get one more loan signing in when we could do with a couple of additions in CM at least and I don’t know if we’ve got the ffp wriggle room to actually sign someone

Zat, c’mon???

Lampard or no Lampard, they’re approaching their prime age, they’ll want to look at winning trophies and playing CL togger.

We ain’t offering either of them to allow them to play at the top level.

Now, as said on numerous occasions, we should have their ready made replacements waiting on the wings that can easily transition into the team next year. But we don’t.

So we’ll wait to see what Kia offers us

Lampard is a big name so players like DCL and Richarlison will have watched him growing up.

Depending on how he sets up and perhaps uses a more front foot attacking style of play they may see more chances up front and enjoy the football more.

Never know.

the douglas luiz rumours have any truth to them be a good option i think for right price

Out of contract in 2023 so Villa need to sell this or next window...i suspect next window.

We have Richarlison who he may want to play with.

I think DCL and Richarlison will go this summer.

Both have given great service, but feels a good time for a reset.

I think Dobbin will stay around the first team though mate.

Depends if they see something under Lampard and he recycles alot of the squad in summer.

Not at all. Watching him for Wales he works as hard as any and brings real quality to their play. IMO, this is what we need - someone who can transition us without panicking or losing possession. As I said, this is not an ideal solution as we only have 48hrs, but one with little down side on loan. Who would you realistically go for?

Kamara at Marseille.

Loftus-Cheek is far more in the mould of the sort of player we need than Van de Beek. Strong and comfortable on the ball, box to box midfielder.

 

[Zatara]

RLC = Not good enough for Palace or Fulham. Only logic is to use him as a 2nd striker to punt the ball up to, Fellaini style.

Alli = Fine on loan but we need a defensive midfielder

VDB = Can play DM but maybe a bit lightweight...

Gilmour = Yes please if Chelsea terminate his loan.

Douglas Luiz = Yes please but Villa may only sell in summer when he has 12months left.

Whose likely as not to break down and be not available

Someone like Gallagher at Palace would be perfect.

Yeah but he's never coming here this month

 

[MACCA75]

I like VdB, always looks lively when he comes on for Man Utd, he makes things happen.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

the only mobility Gbamin has is a scooter.

Insurance company wouldnt cover him for one so that's out.

 

[catcherintherye]

Whose likely as not to break down and be not available

You have 1 loan spot, who would you go for? Alli?

Had a look at RLC, and Lampard basically bombed him.

 

[APN_EFC]

Someone like Gallagher at Palace would be perfect.

But we might just have insight into academy talent at Chelsea, if we're lucky.
