Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[roy vernon]

Yeah, it was a long time ago when footy was 'slower' (but not slow!).

Joe Royle, then aged only 19, until just before the end of the 69/70 season, played all 42 games as CF scoring 23, no idea on assists but he'll have done so. He also played 5 FAC/League Cup games. All that in an era with some serious grock centre-backs. Imagine what Joe would have been worth nowadays! But we wouldn't have sold him then, we were Champions - with a 19 year old battering ram! Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe Royle!!

*shakes head and weeps

The best centre forward I saw at Everton, before his back injury, he was only in his early 20s when he picked it up and although he came through his rehab and, if I remember correctly, his surgery, he was never quite the same player after that? Still a handful, but just not the same outstanding player. Just not quite as mobile as he had been.

So still nothing?

So still nothing?

We’re in the middle of a match…

Not a sniff. Though, Sky did mention that Chelsea are expected to bid for AG ... apparently

 

[GoldenToffee]

McNeil is pure and utter trash.

Apparently we don't work over weekends, we don't work on matchdays now either so when exactly are we supposed to buy these strikers wide men and defensive midfielder with seven days to go before the window shuts?

Or we we just waiting for the Gordon money and then just buy whoever is available?

That's how we got Gbamin, Gomes, Rondon...that was fun too I guess!

100% complete waste of money for 5 million more we could’ve got Cornet. I’m furious Kevin you messed this one up

Has to be someone coming in if hes playing Rondon for an entire 90 mins? Fella will be on life support by the weekend

Played 90 minutes but covered about 50 yards all game

How do you know they don’t work at the weekend?

We probably are waiting for the Gordon money as that will determine what kind of player we can go for… more money higher category most likely

Gomes and Gbamin certainly weren’t last minute, both brought in early, both had career threatening injuries that have ruined them

Hopefully Thelwell was watching this rather than refreshing his email inbox, just so he could see Rondon is barely League One level let alone EPL

 

[Spadge Vernacular]

Assuming we can keep Gordon and Gray fit absolute priority has to be to get the cover in for Dom and CM.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Noticed no Pedro or Sarr for Watford tonight. Lost 0-2 at home against MK Dons.

 

[buededw1]

Che Adams scoring 2 again....

 

[Lob]

Can we go and get a striker please. It is getting quite embarrassing now.

 

[pedro789]

Our finances must be catastrophic if there's no-one in world football better than Rondon.

That performance was insane.

Letting Dobbin + Simms go + keeping him was a very brave decision.
