Everton Summer 2024 Transfer Thread

Also, I know yeah sentiment and funny pigeon dances and all that, but why do people think Richarlison would work in our system?

Yup, if we could get a fee that could cover the loan fee and his wages I’d do that in an instant.

Fully agree.

Can cover up top and wing.
His work rate and nuisance would do more than anything DCL is doing now.

I'm praying it's on the table. Part of me thinks this is Richie intimating to Spurs he'd be keen on the move and hopefully that's because he's aware of interest.

I think he's decent in the air. We only really aim for DCL head at goal kicks. Most of the time the long ball is either for forward to chase or a bloody diagonal.

I thought he was dreadful yesterday tbh.

He's finding his feet in the league but for me easy to see where the hype is coming from. He's absolutely rapid and looks to take his man on every time. Sort of player where even if he's having an off day he gives defenders a lot to think about.

Exactly.

1. Why sign O'Brien then when its obvious we needed more attacking players
2. Don't we still have 2 loan spots available?
3. The big one, if there are no funds the Dof needs to raise some. Any half decent Dof working to a plan (let's not even go there atm folks) has to make long term decisions for the good of the club, it may just be we need to move Branthwaite or DCL so that it allows us to bring in the 2/3 players we actually need long term. Long term thinking is Thelwells job after all.

There are numerous connotations tbh but the O'Brien thing is starting to look a bit weird, I thought we should have loaned a CB and used the money on an attacker myself.

Maybe they thought United would finally fold and pay the 65 million for Branthwaite so moved for O’Brien to cover it but United went elsewhere and screwed our thinking.

You could stick Haaland or Mbappe up front in a Sean Dyche side, and they’d have the same outcome that DCL/Beto have in this side.

He would do great under our next manager.

But yeah, Messi would struggle under T-Rex, the anti football terrorist.

He could never hold the ball up when we had him the first time round.

I have no doubt he could become a great player if he learns another trick than cutting in on his left foot into 3 defenders.

There's players out there available at not stupid prices mate

Agree are they looking though? Seem obsessed with PL experience

I think he’d be perfectly fine in our system (such as it is), he might even improve it. And could arguably play four positions in it.

 

[jinkyali]

He could never hold the ball up when we had him the first time round.

I genuinely don't think we do that now. Remind me when DCL or Beto do it?

I think the role of a forward in a Dyche team is to win duels, get the ball and move it to a team mate who will then get us up the pitch ideally.

I know what your saying and it may be we are pony but I don't think our forwards have ever held the ball up under Dyche.

 

[Librarian]

Any sale is good for us at this point, but would be a bit fuming if he ended up at Newcastle considering we had the opportunity to get Minteh the other way earlier in the window and couldn't sort out the deal then.

DCL to thank for that one, wouldn’t sign for us, wouldn’t take a deal at Newcastle, doesn’t seem willing to work hard in the meantime

 

[Tony’s Carp]

One less potential option for Dom and one less potential option to replace him if he does go.
