Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[Nymzee]

Thought Camara was off to Leeds to replace Philips? Have they pulled the pin?

Yes, weeks ago.

If we bought all the players we were linked to I wouldn't know whether to crack open the champagne or slit my wrists?

compromise - crack open a fresh Domestos and pour it on your freshly cut wrists (horizontal cuts because it's just for attention not for effectiveness)

Two days without a signing and the locals grow restless once more.

I just want Gana to be finalised; then I will sit back and relax and wait for that striker...

I think we can still win games without one...and no, Rondon is not one.

There 's nothing for you here.

We'll have no trouble here.

Everton have been one of the clubs to look at Lorient forward, Terem Moffi.

Dwi’n hoffi Moffi…

whos doing that?
nothing anyone can do about what happens in the transfer window but everyone would like to see a balanced squad, shorn of dead wood as soon as possible.

Fair enough. The beating yourself up remark was aimed at the original post which did indeed turn out to be a jokey one.

The point re outgoings remains valid though mate. You can't reasonably expect our dead wood to be removed early in the window. If we offload at all it will be in the last couple of days.

I just winced at the thought of that?

Ancelotti constitutes an existence proof. Will we throw away points in the next three weeks if we wait to bring in a striker on loan? Yes. Does it follow that we should burn the loan slot on a subpar striker or make a panic buy? No.

Well you won't, if we announced Gana today you'd then piss yourself on the hour till a striker was signed. Ultimate bedwetter.

So what do we do?

Ahhh; did that make you feel like a real man?

Considering I don't piss myself - yes.

Considering I don't piss myself - yes.

Congratulations

So what do we do?

Grind out clean sheets and hope to nick a goal here and there. It's how Ancelotti set up in the second half when we were goal challenged. We were top 4 with James and two healthy strikers, but never without. Works (in the sense that we pip Spurs for 7th) if we run through the tape against Villa and Sheffield down the stretch.
