Everton January 2025 Transfer Thread

Surprises me there is no other winger lined up we have known we needed one for months and with Mcneil out and Harrison off form, even more pressing. Knocked back Nuamah but no alternative seemingly, very odd. Clearly priorities changed by injuries but we still lack pace. Best solution would be a mobile forward who can play accross the front line.
 
This seems a bit revionist to me. I'd suggest go and have a look in the Gordon thread to see if people thought he was worth £60m minimum.
It'd not revisionist, it's what I thought at the time. I'm aware lots of Everton fans thought we'd done Newcastle over with the fee. I never agreed. Bit I take your previous points about maybe that was all we could get and just needed rid
 

It's going to
I know mate, I didn’t take it that way so no harm done or offence taken. I was just suggesting it happens at every club, it’s just that we as evertonians only really see what goes on our club, but it’s very very similar at every club.
I do agree with you, that it happens at other clubs too . I just feel at efc it happens too frequently. I follow you on X so I must think a lot about you

Waiting until the weekend to see if we win, if we do, were pretty much safe as it's essentially a 10 point difference and there is no chance realistically if being caught, and recruitment isn't as crucial. If we lose, they'll be pressed into action. That's my thought anyway
 

I wouldn't go near KDH, thought he was over hyped and overpriced when Chelsea got him, he's shown nothing since, earns 100k ow, busted out after a few years getting a fat wage at a big club and now 27, sounds very like Scheiderlein and a fair few other deals we've done
He signed for them this season and is open to moving to look for more game time.

I get you REALLY want McAtee but there hasn’t been a single link to him yet (would be great if so). Maybe taking a slightly more open minded view of a realistic target that we have actually been linked with might help to dampen the almost inevitable disappointment of mcatee not joining us by Monday?

He would improve our midfield massively, he would push doucoure out of the 10 and would give the defence the out ball they desperately need in the absence of a dcl style striker which again we probably will not sign by end of the window
 
Here's the thing for me, this transfer window was weirdly enough one we had a distinct advantage over other clubs, most clubs across Europe and this league 'spent up' what they had made available by their users during the summer. As did we (nothing basically 😂), however we kinda had e been taken over by owners you would hd e hoped would put serious investment into the playing squad. Doing so now although a more restricted pool of players and with some being slightly over costed due to scarcity you are competing against a small handful of clubs - most with restricted budgets.

Yeah can wait until the summer with a lot more players available, but with every single club now reset in terms of spending capacity.

Yes you may pay more now to get say for example a Diarra out of Strasbourg now etc, but come summer it doesn't matter his price may drop a few million if you're now competing with 7-8 clubs instead of 0-1 for him. It's a false economy.
