Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

His replacement will be Gray.

I feel the Moise Kean fiasco is holding a lot of things up.

Then we are in trouble. Gray has neither the work ethic nor the output of Richarlison. He is maddeningly inconsistent too.

How many 'youth' did we have on our 9 man bench last season?

The fact Delph, Icelandic Babysitter, Richarlison, Branthwaite, Tosun, Lonergan, Kenny are all gone leaves 7 players down from the squad from last season.

Branthwaite, Welch, Onyango, Dobbin, Tryer all made the bench multiple times last season.

We are not even scraping the bottom of the barrel anymore, we are actually starting to look down in between the cracks of the planks of wood that make up the barrel.

 

[YoboCopter]

Remember when nzonzi from Blackburn was supposed to be moyes top transfer target and the best we could do is offer a loan.

Then Stoke gazumped us with a £4m bid lol

Honestly mate if we dont laugh we will cry

Haha this man speaks the truth

What was the point of surviving relegation if we're not going to have a better squad than the season we had a relegation battle? just seems futile

Another year of PL income, I suppose.

Without his association of Everton, Barkley would never ever be considered.

A year or two ago would’ve considered it but not now.

 

[Curtis]

People who still think we still have mid table squad are delusional severely weakened over the last season lost three creative players our best attacking player, our only credible striker suffered a major injuries last year so his quality is unknown this year, we have two unproven full backs one who looks solid defensively but lacks creativity and the other one still raw while his competition is very faded and would be suited for retirement. We have numerous liabilities at defense. Our midfield is Incapable of passing or carrying the ball up the pitch. Cant protect the backline and we have no set piece takers , lack any depth on the bench with 5 sub rule garbage squad

Yeah but apart from that we're pretty solid.

We’ve known for at least a year Richarlison would be going this summer and we still haven’t replaced him. What a disgrace that is

We have. Gordon and Gray. That's what we will end up playing down the left this season. Can't see us signing a winger.

Everton that

 

[Axlswhk]

Disaster.

 

[coollino]

We sold our best player three weeks ago.

The season starts in 17 days.

We’re yet to replace him.

he suspended the first game so i guess we have a little longer?

 

[Paul E]

This is actually one I’d be quite keen on. Another natural left footed right winger would be useful and as more of a technical player than a pace merchant his profile could suit a system Frank seems to like where the “wingers” play more as wide CAMs with the wing backs providing the outright width. Would add something different to the squad with little initial outlay, and that’s what we need.

Are we ignoring the fact he's not very good?

Averaging 3 goals and 3 assists each season over the last 5 years and the fact he's a 1 in 10 winger in his career. What is he going to add to out team? The numbers suggest he will not have the same impact as Gray or even Townsend.

 

[toffee66]

We might leak a few less than last year with Tarkowski but we need a DM.

We will score fewer without Richarlison unless we add 2 or 3 attacking options.

We know it. Lampard knows it. Thelwell knows it.

Our £ restrictions make it hard to solve it.

 

[bluestevon]

Would any of you take this as acceptable

Say Barkley buy for £1 million with an add on of £10 million if you stay up, increased to £15 million if you finish 10th or above

Gilmour on loan( no loan fee just his wages paid in full by you ) with an obligation to buy on 1/7/2023 for £15 million if you stay up.

The players in this scenario aren’t the issue it’s the type of structuring of the deal that interests me

The structure is what we seemingly offered for Cornet
