Everton Summer transfers 2021

[GlosBlue]

Does old Whitey have pace? That's all I want to know!

 

[kenada_blue]

Could get Koulibaly cheaper?

I know he's older but ...well, he's better

 

[Shevin Keedy]

well we need to see who benitez wants or doesn’t etc he must know how he thinks the squad is etc

Can not believe you are on board with this managerial appointment Matty.

Everything I thought I knew has turned out to be a lie.

Aye, there is no harm in mixing experience with youth. I'd love to see him here, and given that Benitez signed him previously might make it a possibility.

I'd also like to see us in for Zagadou if only for the excitement of the obvious song potential #blacklace

Who cares about the transfer fee. The only thing that matters is wether he'd improve the team.

The transfer fee matters because there’s A LOT of players we need to buy to improve the team, and we won’t be able to afford them if we spend £50m on one in a position we’re not desperate for.

White is proper, proper quality. The prospect of him and Godfrey as long term centre-halves for Everton is very appealing.

He's one of those players who are good at everything, extremely reliable, reads the game well.

I'd have no problem with this transfer whatsoever, except... it's not really the priority position. As bad as Michael Keane is, we have much worse in other areas. So if it's an 'either/or' scenario in terms of spending big money this summer, I'd much prefer us to bring in players in positions of weakness like wide right/left, central midfield and right back.

If we're just going to laugh at FFP and spend whatever, which is what I think we should do, then Ben White for £50m is almost a no brainer.

You stumping up the £50m? Why you bothered?

Because that £50m should be spent elsewhere. Gk, Rb, CM, LW, RW, CF..... unless Usmanov is writing a blank cheque?

Can't believe that there are folk on here turning their noses up at the prospect of signing Ben White.
What have we become?!

The fact that we need about 4 positions filled first.

But sound, let’s launch 50 big ones on another CB and take our inventory up to 6

The expectation would be two of Mina/Keane/Holgate would be moved on of course.

 

[Tubey]

Speaking of which, if we could get £20m apiece for Mina and Keane and bring White in as the replacement for a net spend of £10m, that'd be astonishing business IMO.

 

[JimmyJeffers]

That Zat multi quote almost broke my browser.

He multiquoted himself as well to try and prove he was right about a player.

You'd assume as there are priority areas, that if we are indeed spending £50m on a CB there is money to play with.

But obviously player sales will play a big part also.

As referenced, Mina and/or Holgate fetching £30m+ between them helps, selling Kean, Bernard and if the rumoured interest in Sigurdsson is true, that will also play a huge part in us being able to strengthen the squad massively this summer.

 

[jazzy]

We surely need to get a RB through the door first before another CB. That has to be priority.

I wonder if Benitez will go for Hysaj ( apologies if spelling is incorrect ) . He had him at Napoli and is now available on a free.

I was very suprised to see that he's only 27.

 

[jazzy]

Depends if Rafael is fine with Coleman and Kenny.

Who would be?
