Everton Summer 2024 Transfer Thread

Funny enough the player comparison listed Onana as the fifth most similar

Yeah I think he's similar to Gueye in profile - based purely on analytics.

For what it's worth our Kev sent us this earlier

Kevin
Good shout. Yeah was interacting with a Roma fan on X and he was saying that de Rossi wanted midfielders who would dominate on the ball, be more front foot. Bove has seen game time drop under him so open to a move, despite being a Roma fan.

Looking at his stats on Fbref, ignoring the irrelevant stuff, like goal scoring, he's a bit low in the possession stuff but super high in off the ball metrics. Kind of exactly what Dyche would like tbh.

Roma fans (including those writing for SB Nation site) are not happy that he appears to be leaving, which is always a good thing when buying a player. Really hope this one goes through

Is there an actual link here? Anything from our journos? Dont tend to listen when it just coming from the player side (especially when they’re Italian sources)

.Can we conclude that Thelwell has done a good job when:

- Keane and Young are in the starting XI
- Maupay and Holgate are on the bench ?

Can we conclude SD is a terrible boring predictable manager, for not playing any of the signings who've all shown something more than the incumbents in pre-season?

Harsh blaming Thelwell for Keane starting

Just tell Kev take the rest of the window off, we have a dinosaur hell bent on shoe horning Young, Keane and Doucoure in.

All but one of the new signings not involved. And Tim wouldn't be playing either if Garner was fit.

What's the point of signing new players.

You can't improve the squad when you have a manager who wants safety first and won't try anything new.

Think this is a bit of an overreaction Tim, they'll certainly be getting minutes soon.

Bournemouth haven't thrown their 40m new guy in, Man U left De Ligt on the bench yesterday and so on.

How can anyone look at that team and think we’ve had a decent transfer window?

They all played last week and at Preston. It's not like they only just signed. We all saw they are better than the players selected.

There is no explanation for this selection. Other than Dyche is a very safety first manager and very reactive. He only brings new players into the 11 when others have played poorly.

It’s because of experience because the aim of the game is “do not lose”

He dropped Branthwaite last year but everyone convinced themselves it was because he’d played in the u21 tournament

Everton are readying a loan bid for Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah before the 30 August deadline, sources have told Football Insider.

Speaking on the latest edition of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, senior correspondent Pete O’Rourke revealed that a deal could depend on whether Dominic Calvert-Lewin leaves the club before the window closes.

Di Marzio the other day.

None of the ones here have mentioned it even to say it's bs though.

They both signed within the last 3 days

Why would they play??

I agree for the most part but we know what Dyche is like. If they come on (which they will) and out perform the starters they will earn their minutes.

I'm not a great Dyche fan either but I think the forum should wait a bit before the collective headloss (at least until Big Mick toeys one into touch under no pressure.)

Our Journeys know that once Friedkin walked away any talk of transfers disappeared. Everything is just clickbait until some are sold.

Bit of a difference mate is that besides O'Brien all ours were in before we kicked a ball in pre season, O'Brien's been here two weeks already too and lasted in three games
