Everton January 2025 Transfer Thread

[Paul Rideout]

Tough one that, Hall has way more experience but Chucky reminds me of Onana who Moyes was desperate for West ham to sign.

Btw if you actually look at what Moyes says pretty sure he wants two attackers and a central mid. Wonder if he wants that loan spot for a striker though....

Take it.

There must be a striker abroad that we can loan. We have foreign loan spots still IIRC

Sums it all up in one.

We would of been battered by spurs under ginger nuts, not a chance we score 3 with his tactics and spurs would of been all over us, why don’t you get behind the team/club for once instead of consistently finding/making faults

Moyes made changes that led to Spurs scoring two and us hanging on...against a team with hardly any Spurs starters in it.

Yup completely agree, Tim aside all the others are very 'samey'

Armstrong isn’t samey. I know he’s young but he looks ready to me, just needs game time to develop.

If Chelsea have offered us a "choice" then surely it's very likely that one of them will end up here. Need at least another forward in then and perhaps unlikely, an LB would represent as good as we could hope for. Moyes seemed to suggest yesterday that three in was too much to expect. I'd take two.

Well if we had Dyche as manager and Spurs scored 2 then we’d have lost to a team with hardly any Spurs starters in it.

If we took the lead versus Spurs at home under Dyche we'd have never gone for the second or third goal anyway, we'd have gone into turtle mode.

Dyche made no changes that lead to Bournemouth beating us from 2 goals down.

Has Chuck ever put together a run of first team games? Big upside based on his potential but slight worry about him being ready to come in and play every game. Guess that's the same for anyone being let go in January except someone moving up from the championship.

 

[Lanolin]

Dunno mate, I'm going off having seen Moyes improve players a lot exactly in that age range, Arteta, Pienaar, Baines, three of the most notable ones, but a good amount of others too - I don't know how good he is developing up lads from the academy level but on the early twenties he seems to really get them maximising potential.

That’s a slightly (well completely to be honest) different point though. We can of course hope that giving Moyes any collection of players in their early 20s leads to him finding some sort of magic formula with them, but I don’t believe there’s much reason to believe that the specific group of players you named should be seen as hugely exciting.

We would have had nothing to hold onto with ginger nuts in charge, plus you can only beat what is in front of you

He had us beating today's opponents 5-1 down at their ground...

Yeah I get we all hate Dyche, however when someone makes a valid point about Moyes’s subs, and you’re only response is a straw man argument then you’ve lost the argument.

That was 20 months ago, the 3 games against them since we’ve drew twice and got gubbed 3-0 by them back in August

Unbeaten away Brighton for years...including the 2 Dyche managed games down there.
