Everton Summer transfers 2021

[blue to the bone]

I will be doing the same, but I'm not happy about the direction of the club.

I'm perfectly fine, but I'm not going to say I think everything is good when I think its extremely bad and we are in for a long season. I'm grumpy and naturally a pessimist, but I'm usually a realist too.

If we dont make any effort to improve the squad then I dont see how we will improve our league position.

I'm a realist too . But sayin you wish the season was over before it starts isn't a great way to look at things

Did read it the other day....something like 5% of any profits.
Few million i guess.

Damn, too late to spend it on Nathaniel Clyne's signing-on bonus.

 

[kiss the crest]

Why are Leicester so far ahead of us now? We can only dream of winning the charity shield

Really deflated after today

We are struggling to move squad players on, so chances are we will be stronger next year when contracts end. Thats why I think next year is likely to be better.

This year looks like being extremely disappointing

They had a plan

Maybe we hired the wrong kopite

 

[Simon Buttle]

They had a plan

Also they appointed a coach who fitted the criteria for that plan

Yes but that is part of having a plan. We can't get past step 1.

They had a plan

They do
Sell good players , replace them.Sell again replace more.

We dont , we buy crap , give them massive contracts and no one will buy them.

Part of why they buy good players though is because they buy players who fit the team most of the time. It's a lot easier to buy when you have a more specific idea of what you need instead of just "midfielder."

Yeah I know that and was agreeing, I was just saying that they do it properly rather than just look at names like we do.

 

[Bob Elstone]

Iwobi and Gomes out would be a fantastic start to the season.

It's just a top to bottom thing and when you're as lost as we are you have to also have patience that it'll work in time. We don't have the patience both in the club and among the support so we can't do it. They put out videos again this week talking about how we're aiming for Europe. Why?

And not selling your goalscorer and hoping to fix it with half a dozen number 10's.

Well the problem is still we didn't have a plan. We bought players and tried to figure it out later. That never works.

It's really what we do every summer if we're being honest. That one is just notoriously bad.
