Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[Tree13]

Yes, that's what I said. Obviously not in every single game he's played, because that's not how professional football works, but in the main yes he's been very poor for us. Everyone who has paid even a passing interest in us in the last 2 years would be able to tell you that our midfield has been a major weak point for that entire time, and he has been a mainstay of it. People tried to convince themselves that he was great in that first season (same with Doucoure) but overall they were mediocre at best.

No, actually Allan was great in his first season here.

Yes he's showing signs of rapid decline and in hindsight the timing of that decline was probably predictable given his age. I'd grudgingly agree that he was probably a poorly-considered purchase, again due to age.

But he certainly did have a strong first season with us.

Good if true.

 

[Neiler]

That is off its head. It's not like he's choosing Beef or Salmon at a wedding.

Might be they are looking at him as a replacement at inside forward for Richarilson , he can play on the left flank as well as upfront - but would he be up to filling in full time for Richarlison and potentially Gordon out left, that's a big roll of the dice - once DCL is fit.

Looking at other clubs deals today seems like players that we have been linked with alongside thise clubs will have fewer options. Newcastle have reportedly spent 60m on a striker



and West Ham 40m on a midfielder

Newcastle wanted Broja, West Ham tried to get Gallagher last week, makes me wonder.

 

[jamieni]

Myers reckons we only want a striker with PL experience

Think Che Adams is about the only PL striker we’ve shown an interest in. Well apart from Broja.

 

[Curtis]

This guy is useless; got Gana wrong, got Kudus wrong...

Fake News.

What did he get wrong? we set up deals with both clubs then developments emerged that changed the situation football deals aren't static things happen, gueye had a disagreement with compensation which complicated things and then ajax noticed there was a n abundance of interest for kudus and waffled on the deal

 

[Nymzee]

I don’t think replacing Richarlison and Gordon with Kudus, Diaz and Joao Pedro leaves us in a stronger position other than with depth.

I reckon those 3 (and McNeil) could replace 14 goals.

 

[Nymzee]

It's a good 200m since Howe took over

He said this year. Presumed he meant this season's window.

 

[trueblue84]

25m isn’t going to get a deal done for Terrier IMO. Add another 5-7 on to that at a minimum

Still a decent fee for a player who's output is significantly higher than Gordon's

Maupay

You do know January counts as this year, yeah? That Cumbrian education isn't that bad, surely?

 

[Nymzee]

Didn't see the game when he absolutely rogered us last season mate ?

Wasn't that impressed. Everyone looks good vs Everton. McNeil looked like a wizard and now apparently he's awful.

 

[Goodisongang]

I reckon those 3 (and McNeil) could replace 14 goals.

Well that's 4 players replacing 2 players so that's worrying.

After September of that year we never tried to keep the ball again. I can't put any midfielder down as great when you're doing that.

I'm going for the beef as long as there's horseradish
