Everton Summer 2024 Transfer Thread

[james2805]

He is technically quite poor (but does have a cracking shot on him) but since he joined us has been vital to how we play. No manager since he signed has managed without him, including Carlo.

The stats are scary about how we do without him.

Played something like 35 games without him and only won 3 of them.

Says more about our other options than Doucs himself, but he has got us points for sure

Doucoure just can’t do it consistently. He tires or he loses confidence or misses time and comes back cold. That isn’t as big of an issue if we had other players to step up. But we haven’t for a while.

Tchatchoua move, Verona hoping for massive profit in 8m sale to Everton

….looks older than 22 but being born on 14th September is a terrific date for quality players;

Thats a fair point, Doucoure has had a lot on his shoulders, particularly the expectation to score for a team the provides precious little service. The big man has many faults, but he would be right down the bottom of the list for abuse from me. Has given us much much more than most of them did.

Hawk Tchachoua!

African players offer good value, but we won't look forward to the African Nations Cup.

….all of a sudden, seemingly linked with lots of left-field, cheap options, the types we’ve struggled to find in previous windows. Anybody would think we’ve tapped into a different scouting network.

This is just a false flag by the club to terrify you enough into wanting broja

 

[jazzy]

Brilliant Talent, think it'd be between yourselves and palace really.

With the way Palace we're playing coming onto the back end of the season that could potentially sway his decision, and with both Olise / Eze potentially moving they'd be space and a clear path into the first team.

Whoever he goes to will get a gem of a player

If I was him I'd chose Palace.

The preference for African players would suggest that that is the case.

 

[jazzy]

Think Dacoure's best performances for us last season was when he was playing as an 8, don't you think?

As soon as he went out the team, we played like Fulchester United without Billy the Fish, can't understand the negativity towards him, given it will be his last year with us, this coming season.

I don't think the fans hate him . I think most recognise that he always tries his heart out but he is incredibly limited when it comes to technical ability and is one of our highest paid players.

He is does a lot of hard yards. Hes quality is average but he does a lot more average stuff all over the pitch than anyone else. Which is good

Or meddling hands are no longer here.
