Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[Yarrgh]

Harry Winks is a dirty tory rat.

But is he a nice person?

 

[Azza]

Got some petrol and a lighter if you need it.

Bloody hell you must be doing well. Mr. Moneybags.

He loves his nan

Are we just making do with last season’s gang of misfits then?

The window shuts in September, it’s widely known that we can’t really buy until we’ve sold and historically we do our business late in the window. I’m not sure why people are getting so excited this early on tbh

Harry Winks is a dirty tory rat.

Tell us how you really feel....

People said this about Lampard to... assuming you don't like him either?

Don't get this about players. Unless they are extreme in thier views the politics shouldn't be a basis of signing players...

 

[Yarrgh]

Bloody hell you must be doing well. Mr. Moneybags.

I'm off to join the Tory party with my petro wealth.

Welcome Mr Winks wot wot.

He loves his nan

The new Rooney?

So explain to me where Winks into this given a rumoured £20 m outlay?

He hasn't been signed yet and certainly would not be the choice of many.

I can only imagine the manager knows that we badly need a competent central midfielder now. In my opinion it was midfield that caused most of the problems we had all season and the manager feels he needs to plug that gap immediately and can't afford to wait for a couple of seasons for a young player to come through... the consequences would be catastrophic as we nearly found out.

I don't think any strategy can ever be completely set in stone but I would be very disappointed if we did not bring in a couple of younger players as we did in January with Mykolenko and Patterson.

Oliver skipp is a much better player than winks

Harry Winks can keep the ball moving pretty well - in a very specific setup - as a deep midfielder who basically keeps ball/passes to the first man, he's alright.

That was Andre Gomes in his loan spell which had fans desperate to sign him/player of the season.

Next to someone like Gueye, he would look decent.

He's no mug, he started for Spurs in a Champions League final - but he was sat next to Sissoko and Eriksen.

He's a defensive midfielder who can't tackle. I'm not sure we have the luxury of a player like that.

Hard to shake this;

Harry Winks though?

Ticks all the boxes to be an Everton midfielder.

Can't score.
Can't tackle.
Goes missing in games.
Gets injured a lot.

He'll fit right in then!

Have to shift Gomes. Can't be arsed with two of them.

 

[KaiserEFC]

Can’t win the ball, can’t score, can’t pass, no flair

He’s literally going to be yet another midfield body if he signs

 

[TheBigIguana]

Winks definitely can pass. I hate his style of play so I don't want him but he can move the ball a bit.

Now we have no one for him to really move it to so that's an issue.
