Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[MikeH72]

From what I’ve seen I’m not fussed. That’s not to say I don’t want the lad to do well if he’s signs, I’ll always want players to be a success here.

What have you seen of him mate?

 

[Mashtray]

So what we have to do is get younger promising players in GibbsWhite, Broja etc or even buy them younger.

This makes very good business sense. If you seem them as asset that can appreciate

But it generally takes alot more time, but I'm ok with that.

Those players you mentioned are some of the ones I’m unenthusiastic about

Why have you saw much of them ? I am prepared to back the managers judgement on them tbh, they are young and highly regarded and will have sell on value at least.

Highlights for Sheffield United. I’m not sure if he’s the answer. To his advantage he’s young so might make the step up to be a good Premier League starter.

I actually think MGW could be a really good signing for us, 22 goal involvements last season, only 21 - his value should only go up really, been reading some wolves forums today and they dont want him to go, but if they continue with 343 they think he'll be sold after the next bid

Doesn’t sound like we’re too far apart with wolves now so I fancy this will be our second signing of the summer.

One big positive for me is that both Thelwell from Wolves and Ashley Cole from the U21s will have seen plenty of him. If they like what they’ve seen and can vouch for his attitude and commitment then it’s a thumbs up for me.

That’s odd because he was brilliant for Sheff Utd and won their player of the year award.

Once we were linked I checked out highlights of matches they were involved. I’ve seen Broja play for Southampton a couple of times when they were Live on tv

Yeah patience is definitely not as virtue with fans nowadays or with our owner especially, but we've tried so called proven , older players and where has that got us.

I know, I’m questioning if that’s enough to give us the improvement needed.

 

[bluestevon]

Perhaps I'm guilty of using the terms interchangeably. Luckily, I've got someone with your advanced understanding on hand to set me straight.

If, as you say, Usmanov isn't the face of the operation, nor does he appear to have any concern whatsoever about how the club is run (essentially just leaving Kenwright to do as he sees fit day-to-day), what's going on?

Looks to me like he's laundering this 'gift' that he decided to give his favourite accountant.


I'm not the one posting laughing emojis at the thought of Usmanov's involvement here being suspect.

Mate I said from day one of Moshiri that Usmanov was the defacto owner of us - against the vehement argument he had no involvement from people like esk etc.

There's nothing suspect about him being the background owner - it's pretty much the way Russian football ownership works, a public face as owner and a private background owner - there's reasons for it ofc - one being it allows 'external' sponsorship deal by the true owner - as seen with us, also having 'too' big a public profile isn't necessarily the smart choice in Russia as it can lead to suggestions about why you're aiming to be this public populist figure and the knock on effect that could have politically. A few of the first wave oligarchs tries to use their wealth and public profile to become political figures - they failed.

Ultimately it cones down to culture as well, Russians by and large especially one from the Soviet era, don't really need to be 'seen' to have the power - it's actually having it what matters

See the club has briefed the ECHO on the state of play in transfer window (in my opinion):

Everton's transfer window and the truth about lack of activity so far

Everton fans are waiting for more arrivals in the summer transfer window following the signing of James Tarkowski at the beginning of the month

"These are intricate negotiations that take a lot of time"

*Looks around at rest of the league getting players in within a week*

I remember a pre season under moyes, think it was one when we signed beckford & magaye gueye - we won every game in pre season. Then we started away to Blackburn, played awful & lost 1-0, we played in that pink kit

Scored something like 8 goals and we sold him to...Leeds i think for a bit more than £1m?

Leicester mate

Was it? Thought it was either Leeds or Blackpool tho Blackpool i think it's who we got him from

He left Leeds on a free transfer to join us, then was sold to Leicester
