Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[Houghty19]

Only a minor point on our finances but as the loss of USM sponsorship money was down to government intervention can this loss not be included as a force majure i.e. something outside our sphere of influence like covid was and be used to reduce our losses?

I reckon it will be 3-4-3/5-2-3 myself, Thelwell favours that way and it was how Wolves played when he was there and he did write a book about it after all. It all comes down to who we bring in at the end of the day.

Personally I would favour that given the state of our midfield

Just so I understand what you are saying, the state of our midfield means you`d only play 2 in there?

?

Look at our results, worst ones have been 3-4-3/5-2-3 and the best have been 4-3-3, absolutely should say it all.

I think by the start of the season we will have changed the core of the team in a sense of new CB and new CM.

That just isn't true, Chelsea, Leicester, and Palace wins were 3-4-3 as was the draw at Watford. Looking at results over the season the formation we do the worst at is 4-2-3-1

It might be controversial and I`m sure many may disagree with me but if Chelsea played the same system as Liverpool or Man City they would be alot closer to them. The 3 at the back systems are very very limited and I hope we don`t go down that route....

Palace was 5-2-3 1st half then 4-3-3 for the second...... 5-2-3 Newcastle away lost 3-1, Palace away in the cup 4-0 could have been many more, Wolves at home lost 1-0, Boreham Wood only 2-0, Arsenal away 5-0

Are you classing a 0-0 at Watford one of our best results...

Playing 4-3-3.
Leeds, won 3-0
Man City, good performance but lost 1-0
Newcastle at home won 1-0
Man Utd at home, won
Leicester at home, drew
Liverpool away, another decent performance but unlucky with officials decisions, lost 2-0
Crustal Palace at home, rescued the 2nd half after the ? 5-2-3

4-3-3 picked up far more points

Was Chelsea at home 4-3-3 or 5-2-3?

1 loan per club, 2 loans total.

Absolutely anything to stop us little clubs gaining any sort of margins on the media darlings, the Premier league bloody stinks, I hate it. I wish the ESL had got the go ahead I really do.

The bit where he does the tricky turn on the edge of his own box and loses it.?

Last season was about staying up and nothing else so why not just wait and see how we lineup at the start of next season after a few new signings (hopefully) and a proper pre-season.

Interesting point

I agree with we just had to stay up... All I`m saying is Winks looks like he is 100% on his way in, playing in a 2 in a 5-2-3 that really really worries me.

Couldn't agree more

You have to trust the manager though otherwise don't bother watching if you don't like it.
