Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[GlosBlue]

Strange heat map comparison. One game under Mourinho, vs three months of games under Pochettino?

And my point is we don’t need an out and out replacement for Richarlison, Dele on the left of the striker ofj

Do we need a direct replacement for Richy?

We definetely need decent striker back up...but better if they play regularly ie. Richy.

If DCL gets injured for significant amount of games what do we do?

Dennis is probably my choice of attacker 'available' to us out of what I've seen us linked with.

We saw it with Lukaku leaving - it didn't matter how much we got for him, there wasn't anyone as good to bring in. But a lot of supporters were distracted by the sale money thinking it would buy decent replacements.

You just can't replace some players. I think we'll miss Richy in the same way.

Does some mad tings with the ball at his feet does our Dennis.

Like Gordon and Gray I don't think he's good enough to be a guaranteed starter to replace Richy though.

And you don't know anything about debating and Internet etiquette.

Who’s the one who put the middle finger on my post for no reason?

There are lots and lots of very good footballers..

But our recruitment has possibly been the worst in football history over a sustained period.

 

[Llyrap]

neither are a dm tho

Ampadu is definitely a better Dm than a CB. Gets caught out at CB - he’s only 21. Knows exactly what he is doing for Wales. I’d have him expecting that there’s still a lot of development. Certainly more athletic than all our midfielders.

100% - very few players who could play in a team as bad as ours last season and score 10 and get 5 assists.

He’ll be much harder to replace than some seem to think.

Yes we need to play a different way if you lose a key player and or identify two or three players we can develop in forward positions we probably won't though

Think we’re looking at probably £100m between Richy and Kean and probably at max of £20m more from anyone else we could sell, which going off of how January went with Digne we can spend whatever we bring in. If you go off the quotes of who we’ve been looking at it all makes sense so far.

£100m-£120m to play around with and we’re seemingly set on Tarkowski (free), Zinchenko (£25m), Winks (£20m), Dennis (£20m) and Lewis Potter (£25m). This way would still leave us a bit of wiggle room in regards to fees for those players but also maybe room for another defender too if we needed. Also makes sense why we’d look at loaning Winks and spend “his” fee plus a bit more on someone like Gallagher to push Winks’ eventual fee into next year where we should be fairly unimpaired in terms of spending ability.

I don’t think things are gonna be as dire as we make out this summer it’s just gonna be a bit gutting to lose a player like Richy that has a connection with the fans, the truth of it though is that the squad will be in such a better shape next year than it was this year. Even if those aren’t the exact names we go for the fees will probably work out like that for the players in those positions, I’d expect us to be spending basically whatever we can generate in sales.

Think this might help with the perspective for some of us, it’s not really until I thought of it and wrote it down that I honestly seen the positive summer that we could potentially have if we get it right.

Looks like that Dennis fella next week according to some Watford twitter account
