Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

I honestly think Holgate is the better natural defender.

We're blinded by Godfreys aggression and pace.

We need the Club Doc to somehow splice them together.

This is our medical team you're talking about so they just took the worst parts and put them together and tossed the rest.

Regarding the current Everton youth in the squad, only Gordon and DCL are players for the first team - we seem to be keeping Holgate, Davies, JJK because they are cheap and familiar.

When we are forced to have any of those three in the starting line-up then we struggle - but then perhaps we can't afford better.

Cumming too soon?

Richarlison will stay another season for sure, I hope James Tarkowski rumors are trues he a decent player as we need him!

 

[Evertonthat]

….I think exactly the opposite. I think he can come in and do ok for a game but he can’t keep that level up & gets found out.

Dreadful positioning, you often see him the wrong side of the ball watching the game. Rash and mistimes tackles giving away dangerous free-kicks & no power of recovery when the opposition goes beyond him. I’m very nervous when he plays & I’d even have Keane ahead of him.

Godfrey plays ok at LB or LCB in a 3. Holgate probably the same on the right. Both play better with Mina next to them as CB. Hopefully Tarkowski can stay fit and have the same influence on the group, and we see a much more solid group at the back for a full season.

I do also think our defence as a whole would massively benefit once our midfield has been upgraded.

50/50 chance of Gallagher.

Christ, I could do what these dudes do.

Literally any of us could, they’re all full of crap, rather listen to Mr Azul’s insider knowledge!

Our midfield has been invisible at times over the last couple of seasons, which exposes a rocky defence.

People are bored with Allan and Doucoure it seems, but it was even worse before.

I think Holgate is the superior centre-half (certainly in a two at least), whereas Godfrey is a bit more versatile and does a better job covering at full-back.

Finally, recognition...

 

[blueboy1664]

wise up, mina is a cripple with 1 year left on his deal and michael keane is just a terrible player who we overpaid massively for to begin with. we are not getting a decent return on them.

Keane, with a right partner is solid... why do you think Moyes wants him, alongside Zouma who if I remember had a pretty solid partnership
Mina... yes a cripple but in a more slower pace game in Europe will be an appeal

My thoughts only

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

Just heard a whisper we are rated 50/50 to sign Lukaku on loan???

Don’t listen to any of it

 

[Curtis]

Has the tarducken signed yet?

 

[CairnsToffee]

Imo Holgate needs and has always needed a run of games. In/out of the side doesnt suit or work for him.

Godfrey just needs a partner to help with his positioning...if he goes out someone needs to hang back etc

Agreed Holgate needs a run of games hopefully for a championship club

I agree no chance of that happening. Maybe as part as a deal for Richarlison. But think very little chance of that.
