Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[bluestevon]

Why would West Ham sign Keane for 10-15million?
When they can get Tarkowski on a free

Why did we pay 20+ m for Tosun mate, clubs constantly do stupid things.

Chelsea perspective on Colwill - he's already got more plaudits than Guehi and Tomori have with their Championship loans. Really looks the part too with the frame and athleticism but I think the fact that Chelsea are short at the CB position heading into the new season makes it a bit more difficult. Also can't see the club willing to put in a clause for a permanent for the same reason even if it was to be a loan.

I've seen more of Tomori and Guehi playing but Colwill definitely has had more appreciation/potential at his age seemingly - Article on inclusion in Goal's nxgn list

I just dont understand why Chelsea would entertain any offers for someone like Colwill when they are already under critisism for the form of Tomori & Guehi, possibly selling to early, the succesful transition of Chalobah to the first team aswell as Christianson & Rudiger leaving.
If im right that only leaves Chelsea (who play a back 3) with Chalobah, Silva, Sarr and possibly azzpiculetta. With other loan returns like Clarke Salter, Miazga & Ampadu all below Colwill's level. It seems strange they would even want to listen to offers

Mentioned this before. Chelsea i feel will have a fire sale.
They have like 10m players. The new loan rules means they can only loan out 8 this season. There is no way they can afford to bring all the players back and pay them.
Plus they are about to be bought by an investment group. They will run a different model, as they will want profits.

So Saturday is the deadline for our retain/release list to be submitted. I would have expected to see some movement on anybody we're keeping by now, so.... So long JonJoe Kenny, The invisible man, Fabian Delph, Cenk Tosun! Anyone I'm missing?

Guess it comes down to if Tuchel is willing to play an 18/19yo cb with no top level experience mate or if he's just gonna buy in ready made starters.

Tuchel to me doesn't seem like a manager whose gonna take any short term risks in the aim of the long term benefit.

Those numbers are mostly realistic but I think Lonergan would be surprised to hear he’s on 40k a week. Be amazed if he was making that a month.

According to Salary Sport which is usually pretty accurate Lonegan on 5,500 a week

 

[Nymzee]

Defensive midfield is the ultimate key position for me this season. Since Gana left our defence has just been left to the wolves every game.

Everton constantly do stupid things you mean

In that case hopefully we'll be much better off than this season with FFP. What an amount to be spending on players that barely play for us.

Joao Palhinha is one that’s been mentioned that’s supposed to be a promising player. At the other end of the spectrum, there is Axel Witsel on a free but he’s 33.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Joao Pedro from Watford is the one, 15 mill release

It’s important to note that, despite playing for Watford and being Brazilian, he is not the second coming of Richarlison. £15m is only a bargain if he isn’t crap.

The Esk playing the long game, there.

These figures seem to be the rough consensus.

£26m a year in wages for seven players. Those seven players have made less than forty appearances this season COMBINED.

Then consider Mina and Gomes... Another £11m per year in wages for the two of them, but fewer than 30 games combined.

There's more than one reason we're in dire financial straits.

Can only hope we're in a much better position financially come September when we've shifted a few on.

Just how bad we are at that position and the effect it has was illustrated by when a pretty washed up and crocked Delph played there we actually looked semi decent at the back, now that's scary on how bad the position has been for us that he can have that effect

 

[COYB75]

Thought Tosun was on 100k actually

We really have become a players pension fund or retirement home over the years. Hopefully that stops this summer.
