Everton Summer transfers 2021

[argietoffee]

we should be all over Eric Pulgar. Really good Chilean defensive midfielder

 

[Zatara]

No and that's part of the problem end of the day DOF should be the one compiling targets and coach is involved in the process but not dictating it but we hire managers that don't fit this model so mixed recruitment policy it is... Which doesn't really work.

We need a right back, midfielder, winger minimum... Plus a striker and back up keeper.

That's 5 players, if we want quality, and real quality that's going to cost over 100m unless we get very lucky on some cheaper players we have scouted.

We need to find another Gueye going cheap and un noticed

That is why I don’t completely dismiss the rumors about Rondon (loan), Coutinho (loan) and Romero (free). Certainly not advocating for any of them, but it covers three needs (2 of which are squad players, not starting XI) in a reasonable financial measure allowing us to spend on a wide player, a center mid, a right back and possibly a center half.

Those likely won’t happen, but in a certain light they aren’t crazy either.

6 or 7 in sounds wild, but if we can get some folks sold it is what is needed.

GK: Romero (Free)
CM: Nunes (£17mil)
RB: Dumfries (£13mil)

Have all been linked, so thats 3 for £30mil.

Could sneak in Kamara (Marseille) and White (Brighton) to hit the £100mil.

To be honest though, is it wise to be aiming for 5 players with only £100mil ?

Surely we need to be after 2 or 3 of real quality with the 'right' profile?

 

[Verbal Kint]

Sure but a 20 million dollar mistake is worse than a 6 million dollar mistake. Even worse, three 20 million plus mistakes, compared to five 6 million dollar mistakes. Its literally half.

American by any chance buddy??

[TheBigIguana]

That makes a ton of sense

 

[Toffee-nerd]

I've seen Doku play once and decided he is the answer to our left wing problem.

 

[TimHowardsBeardJuice]

Good tournament performances inflate prices and reputations

Saw Dumfries being touted for us and then he had a good tourney, knew we’d get priced out

Still think James is dining out on his 2014 WC more than anything he ever did for any club

 

[GoodisonRoadSupperBarWool]

???
It's awful when you sign Belgians and they end up being your best goalscorer in over 30 years.

I meant more they want the best goal scorer we had in over 30 years was constantly gobbling off for a move away at every chance but yeah sound

 

[Frenk]

Sure but it doesn't matter what they cost at some point if you don't have any good players it becomes an issue. Isaac Hayden is in his top 3 at Newcastle. It's really bad.

He signed Sterling while at the rs, right? And a number of other pretty good players. I mean if we are going to look at his Newcastle signings then surely we have to look at his signings while at other clubs. I’m not saying he hasn’t made bad signings, but they haven’t been all bad.

I actually don't know if we do because all his other clubs were in the CL and that changes things in terms of who you can attract. This hurts to admit but the closest to where we are really is Newcastle.

 

[kiss the crest]

Depressing news if true on the transfer front today

Dumfries - Off to inter Milan
Richarlison - lots of clubs after him
Pères - 25 mil we are interested in him.

Weren’t getting priced out, he’s going to another club, who happen to be the Italian champions

James is a genuine world class player when he's healthy. Unfortunately his last stretch of good health was 2014 and the spring of 2015. His per 90 minute numbers compete with anyone in the world and everyone has seen what he can do as well.

 

[Ash Woods]

If you look at his signings at Newcastle the common thread is that they're all pretty crap

The constant referencing to Newcastle (from so many people not just you) is beyond boring, the man has managed alot of clubs on alot of different budgets

here is a list of a few players signed by Rafael Benitez at places like Valencia, Liverpool, Real and Napoli


Gonzalo Higuain

Fernando Torres

Matteo Kovacic

Danilo

Javier Mascherano

Xabi Alonso

Manolo Gabbidiani

Raul Albiol

Jorginho

Dries Mertens

Kalidou Koulibaly

Duvan Zapata

Marco Asensio

Phillip Coutinho

Lucas Vasquez

Fabio Aurelio

just for some perspective

I'm not sure you saw Fabio Aurelio play if you're including him on that list! Merino at Newcastle would be a much better inclusion
