Everton Summer 2024 Transfer Thread

So he would take a 50% wage cut to go to Brentford, yeah?

Yes.

 

[allen]

Going to regret not taking £10m for big dom

I don’t think we are.

It’s not a huge fee, and replacing what he provides to the team is a much more difficult task than some people think. Especially in a matter of hours.

The O'Brien signing is one of the few examples of good planning by the recruitment team.

If/when Branthwaite leaves O'Brien will have had a full season to get to know the set up, what's expected, his team mates etc.

People think you can just sign a player and throw them straight in but that's often just not real life.

Also it was low down-payment that's the issue with Gnonto it's big upfront fees they want

 

[ToffeeScot]

Yes.

Don't be daft.

He won't provide anything though. Doesn't want to be here and has a history of injury problems so won't want to scupper his next move. Will be like having a hologram in the side.

A PL squad in 2024 without one player with pace on the wing. We are even slower than last season without Danjuma and Dobbin

Agree, I'd honestly take the deal and loan Fofana.

LOSC in for Dele Alli, we’re surely not going to let him slip through our fingers?
Come on Kev pull your finger out ffs

Sadly he's finished at the top level mate

Maupay comfortably beats everyone we have at that.

I've no doubt whatsoever that Everton are a better team with Calvert-Lewin upfront, than Beto. Especially in Dyche's anti-football pragmatism.

But someone has just proved that we are only ever so slightly a better team with him in, based on stats,

given that MOST of the data he used was times when our other options where people like Rondon, Maupay Gray, not much to shout home about.

people keep saying DCL makes everton better under dyche, but the same people say DCL is struggling because of dyche, so what is it?

he's certainly not good enough for people to warrant this much fussing, we wouldn;t be any less of a threat until January with Beto/chermiti leadding the line than DCL, that's all that matters for now

You’re free to hold your own strong opinions on him, regardless of the evidence.

Got to be worth a loan with option surely?

Just think we need pace on the wing more than we need Dom up front. Can see us being the lowest scoring team in the Barclays this season.

 

[john jako]

If what I’ve just heard is true, then we are going to be a very happy forum tonight.

I think we need both, personally.

I wouldn’t fancy trying to get a replacement in - be that another striker or a winger.
