Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

Status
Not open for further replies.
It's hard to see us not in another relegation fight next year. We will have moved on a few key players and removed players that never get a game. The likes of Coleman, Davies, Keane and Townsend will be getting games...yikes
We played last season with Godfrey, Mina Delph and DCL largely out injured and with a bunch of other players out for periods. Adding to this barely any real consistent contributions from Holgate, Keane, Gomes, Gbamin and Iwobi (until the final months).
Alli and VDB were wasted loans/transfers in the end. El Ghazi was bewildering.
We ignore Siggy and Tosun.
Allan, Doucoure, Digne’s form were not great overall.

Gordon was good but needs to improve the end product. Richy was great at the end but not clinical enough during parts of the season.

Only Pickford, Myko (albeit short) and Gordon you can genuinely say had good overall seasons. We struggled at right back and had no natural DM.

It was a perfect storm and culmination of poor recruitment over the last 5 years. The one good thing for Lampard is that whatever happens improving the team will hardly be a challenge. The players who have already left do not weaken the squad. Tarkowski based on his injury history alone strengthens the squad even if it’s argued he doesn’t strengthen the team.
We had probably 10 players on the payroll that contributed very little indeed.
Brentford struggled before Eriksen. Leeds look to be losing at least one of their better players. Out of the promoted teams there isn’t one that stands out as being a Brentford or a Leeds when first promoted.

Lampard now has a great opportunity. Fan expectation is rock bottom.
We are much more attractive as a loan destinations for players from top 6 sides as we are not in competition with them.
Under Lampard our home form has been improved.
The fans know what to do if we start to struggle.
 
27 years just waiting for a cup,
I've forgot about that feeling it's such a shame for this big club,
But for 27 year we have been 'bout as good as Palace,
Palace, Crystal f'in Palace?
As per many recent comments, we are a mediocre club with a few concentrated periods of success.
Not from kopites, but from prominent Everton commentators.
 
No doubt Frank will be asking for some decent players - and if the board were panicked enough to get De Beek, Ali, Patterson, El Ghazi and Myko in January then it's hard to see them not backing him to an extent.

As long as Baxendale, Therwell, Kenwright and Lampard care about their futures then they aren't going to bet it on Tom Davies coming good or whatever they thought a season ago.

The challenge will be attracting and paying for the right players.
Yeh, we should learn who is pulling the strings at the club by the end of this window
 

Would be enormous if we managed to get him. On a free as well.

Would allow us to invest heavily in a 6.

It doesn't help on the youth front, but is a great stop gap
 

Still sounds frighteningly bad. Gordon who can't finish his dinner. Gray who is absolutely useless. Dobbin who has played about 10 minutes of first team football, and a lad who hasn't played in this division before (not saying we shouldn't go for him, by the way). Oh and Townsend who was already a yard off the pace before an almost career-ending injury. Nice options.
Gray who crossed for DCL to score the goal that kept us up is useless? Bit harsh.
 
Stats in all comps between 2019-20, 2020-21 and 2021-22

Emmanuel Dennis:
Games Played - 81
Goals Scored - 21
GPG: 0.24

Richarlison
Games Played - 114
Goals Scored - 39
GPG: 0.35

Not quite carbon copy mate. Not to mention last season was the first time in his career Dennis has scored double figures in a season since his first season in Belgium.
Fair enough, at least it’s not a rude reply like a certain someone, this is his first season in the premier league and exact stats as richy, but going on past seasons of course richy is superior.
