Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

Joyce mentioning Gibbs white as well. I feel we will be suckered into playing big money for him.

This is the one thing we can’t get dragged into, we’re benefitting for once from a massive Young & English tax, don’t go out and pass it on. Go back with a fair offer but if not move on.

What did he say mate?

Can’t access the article again now. But something along the lines of ‘hoping to get gana over the line this week and still hold a firm interest in Gibbs white ‘

How many times, fella. I don't like McNeil from watching him over the past 3 seasons at Burnley. It is not based on his 2 appearances with us.

I saw nothing whatsoever to convince me he is a good player over those years. I also know some Burnley fans and they were not huge fans of his either. Burnley fans. They were intrigued to see how he would get on in the Championship this year to see if his performances could 'step up a level' with the drop down a division. They felt he would benefit from this. The way McNeil has performed in his first 2 games with us is exactly the player I expected. No pace, no drive, mentally weak, blowing tugs after 50 mins, no end product.

And as for Maupay, Brighton create a tonne of chances (we don't) and his goal return is bordering on the pathetic. Maupay and Adams are the kind of players we signed under Koeman. Wrong age, questionable ability to begin with, we will be the biggest club they play for and then we will be unable to shift them when all our fans are moaning about them performing at exactly the level that should be expected of them if you had seen them play for their previous clubs.

But it's fine. They are good PL performers ?. Yes, they might be enough to keep us up this year but then they become a problem and hinder our ability to improve. That's what I find laughable.

This.

We are building the ultimate lower mid table prem team and tbh that's where we will finish at best. That's realism sadly.

Do you remember where we finished last season, mate?

 

[bag a yoko]

Indeed. I'm going to bore everyone with my posts about him last year;









Maupay. 25. Available at a decent price because he's in the last year of his contract.

His goal conversion is better than Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison.

We desperately need options up front.

Maupay is one we know can score in the league (10 in 37, 8 in 33, 8 in 32). One with pace and one we know we can resell, too.

Low risk - you don't lose money on £15m for Maupay, IMO.

I can't say I agree.
Brighton are far superior than us at creating chances.
Putting away goals has been their main weakness the entire time that Maupay has been there.

Imagine losing Gordon and buying MGW. We'll have been absolutely kexed.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Maupay at £15m seems like a no-brainer, to me. He's by no means deadly but I think he'd get us 8-10 and he's a proper little snide, and all. If we somehow blagged Gallagher as part of the Gordon deal and spent the change on Maupay I'd be cock-a-hoop.

I disappoint myself daily, often hourly mate.

We are all Everton supporters, are we not? Waking up is a disappointment most days.



(I kid about that obviously)

 

[coollino]

I'm delighted how little I know about football these days tbh

Good player imo - would happily take him.

Would be easier to assess transfer targets if we knew what end game formation was desired.

5-5 judging by all the midfielders we are linked with.

 

[riddick]

Everton want Gibbs-White.

I agree. I rather keep Gordon in this case. We should be signing good international player from Euro in particular the guy is quoted like £40m.

A lot of fans will be happy though by the sound of it.

35/40 million seems a lot.
