Everton January 2025 Transfer Thread


What if Isak gets injured?. What if Watkins gets injured?. What if Havertz gets injured?. That’s 3 teams challenging for top 4 that haven’t got any other fit striker and they didn’t even replace. Strikers are very hard to come by, and even more so in a January window. We already have 4 strikers on the books, we Have just been unlucky. If Beto gets injured then Ndiaye would just have to play there. I’d rather wait till the summer for Broja to leave, and DCL to leave and then we try and get a decent striker than blow money now on some bang average forward than another team is willing to let go off mid season.
Correct position
 
Evertonians absolutely thrive off misery.

Watched us financially hammer ourselves for years, spend huge wages, millions on rubbish, points deductions in one season & 5 minutes later convinced themselves we’d be spending money in a month where it’s mostly clubs castoffs on the move.

Nobody is selling their best centre forwards in January, certainly not on the cheap. There wasn’t a chance we were signing a 5th one for the sake of it, especially when we’ll need to replace atleast 2 in the summer.
A loan though, give we have 1 very average striker for the next month or so - it is just common sense really.
 

I’m not concerned that Everton only signed Alcarez, but I do worry that negativity could infect the team. What is essential is that Moyes keeps that feeling of fight and positivity that has carried us through the last 3 games. Essentially the team look SO different under Moyes, I’m amazed how skilled they are. Lindstrom for example unrecognisable from a month ago.. It’s not important if we think we need more signings, what is important is that the team doesn’t think we need them.
 
Yes, nobody has said they should have been brought in during this transfer window. None of them were available in any case.
I’m happy enough with Moyes , this upturn in form and Alcaraz but there seems zero middle ground . Either we are doomed to immediate failure or the other option was buying hugely overpriced crap players who couldn’t possibly have improved us. Maybe there is some kind of middle ground .

I feel it would not be beyond the Wit of man for us to bring in someone on loan that would have been useful to a squad with 3 injured strikers . We didn’t so to be honest I’m a little disappointed, it hasn’t ruined my life but I’d have liked another body .

Brilliant.
 
Here you go mate mate. I posted it last Tuesday, last Thursday and yesterday because it was so laughably bad, 100% it was always going to end up making us look stupid


"Despite that challenge, heading into the weekend there was cause for positivity around the work the Blues had done in the transfer window. While no incomings had been secured, there was a sense the groundwork had been done and that the club was in a good position to act on that in the closing stages of the window"


Giving themselves all a pat on the back for not actually doing anything except get a loan in. Someone told the Echo to take that bullishness to print and don't they all look stupid (once again) for it being printed.
Yes that's the one, thanks for reposting.
This is the attitude that needs removing from the club, not only is mediocrity accepted it's actively celebrated. I hope the Friedkins have taken note and we see big changes ahead of the massive summer ahead.
 
Disappointing window but I guess the financial situation was bad but glad moyes just didn’t go in for players he didn’t want or trust .
Bit surprised that Harrison went out but trust moyes
I also think Beto will improve a lot for a run of games
