Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[dholliday]

there's clearly no money to spend, we'll have to make do with what we've got.

We’ve been doing this though and it’s not working. Remember when we had James how different our attack was.

Top teams don't play with a number 10. It's an outdated position, which doesn't work in modern football, and has no place in a bang average team like ours

I need at least 2 weeks notice

Hello Sue

Antony to Utd is done. Maybe Ajax will now be in a position where they can use the next couple days to replace him and will be more willing to let Kudus leave?

Whats the logic here? Wouldnt they need a replacement for both Antony and Kudos if they sell Kudos too?

He spent the last 2 years injured

That doesnt really show what you think it shows.

Look at the names hes with Joelinton, Pascal Gross and hes even less creative than somebody called Jack Harrison, whoever he is.

Dress it up however you like, we are woeful at creating chances, 2 of our goals this season have come from long punts up field and 1 own goal, I dont even know how it can be argued we lack creativity.

Long punts upfield as you put it are still creativity.

Ok, it's not a Cruyff turn and a backheeled ball through a group of players, but Pickford's certainly was having the vision to spot the run and the accuracy to play the right ball. It wasn't chance so I would argue that's every bit as creative

Thats fair, but do you really want to be relying on Pickford picking out 70 yard passes every game?

How about a midfielder that can score goals pretty sure we don’t have any. All our plays come from the wing who’s delivering down the middle? Not iwobi.. possibly Onana he’s still new

Also KDB is a solid #10 so you are incorrect Sir

If he could that would be amazing

A bit of strength & depth compared to last year, but like many worried about the quality and forward line. If only we had a few pennies to get a top winger and striker in, would make the season a lot more interesting.

Think Hwang would be a decent signing in my extremely humble opinion.

He looked good when he first signed but I can’t say I watch much of Wolves and by all accounts he stunk the gaff out for a while?

Heard Wolves fans say he's been utter bobbins since signing perm. Swerve.

Agreed, decent side that. Could still do with a better centre back for me, but more so, we really need to sign the mythical left-footed right winger they've been talking about recruiting for years. Ideally they need to instantly be our best player. Stick Raphinha in there, say, and we'd look so much more dangerous.

I am looking forward to seeing Maupay and DCL together up front and see how that works - has strong possibilities. However it does mean we would need crossers of the ball, which I dont think we have much of in the team since Digne left and townsend got crocked. With those two upfront you don't really need wingers who cut in like Grey, Gordon, McNeil, etc...
So roundabout way of saying I'd like to see a crossing winger come in, preferably on the right as we have Vinagre as an option from LWB but Coleman and Patterson are more direct on the right.
