Everton Summer transfers 2021

[Jimmy Grimble]

Tbh he really won me over after lockdown last year he was really good for a long while. But since about March when he was dropped by England he’s been pretty dreadful. Seems to be a confidence player and you just don’t need one of those in central defence.

Yeah. Me too

We have apparently bid 5m for Rangers right back Nathan Patterson

who’s Nathan Patterson?

Rangers right back apparently.

The guy is a total waste of money. 6 goals all season for 200k a week is NOT a good return on investment. By the way , i dont think Newcastle will buy him. Perhaps a loan with Everton paying half of his wages!

I think at the root of all of this is Everton asking about Longstaff.

I doubt James will go to Newcastle, but if no other offers come up, he may go on loan for a year.

How many players in this team, last season, scored more goals and got more assists than James?

 

[Saint Domingo]

Is he any good @Mikey_Fitzgerald

 

[navidson]

Bit of a random one this

 

[Nymzee]

Patterson? Decent prospect. Any right-back will get me excited.

 

[Bob Elstone]

Would love to see Andre Gomes leave. Offers the square root of nothing.

5m doesn’t sound too tempting for Rangers though, unless someone is going the other way

I know I'm not Mikey but I'm from Scotland and watch a hellava lot of Scottish football.

This lad is a superb player. Extremely talented and will be a star. He's the all round modern day full back, great technique, mobile and pacey, great going forward.

He came into the rangers side towards the end of last season and was an absolute standout, in a side that were flying at the time. He was excellent in rangers uefa cup run also so he's done it out with Scotland. The only slight question mark would be defensively he hasn't been tested too much for the obvious reasons.

If we get him for 5m, it's a possibility given rangers financial stuggles, then it would be an outstanding piece of business and right back sorted for many years.

Genuinely interested to know what people base the 200kpw that they think James is on. Some websites have him pinned at more like 140kpw.

Phil Kirkbride reported it yesterday;

James and Everton head in different directions but real reason for 'havoc' clear

Might be BS but personally I’m inclined to believe it’s nearer that end of scale than the previously reported £100k….
Timing of it and nature of what’s going on with him ATM suggests our version of Pravda might be feeding numbers to the press
