Everton Summer transfers 2021

[Carloblues]

If we could get Donnarumma I would do that move. Other than that, I'm not sure Pickford, who has shown an upturn is number 1 priority (mind the pun). As you say, midfiield, wide right and right back should be the 3 positions we look to fill. If we can get players of the profile and quality of Doucoure/Allan/Godfrey in those 3 positions I think we can have a really tilt at top 4 next season.

We are getting less positions that need filling, but they need to be filled with the right quality.

We then have to hope, Gordon and Brainthwaite will have benefitted from their loan experience.

Gordons spell has been horrific by the looks of it, only started a few games and was ragged off first again yesterday

Brainthwaite hasn't started in a good few games now as well

Gordon started the game which doesn't spell "horrific" and didn't get "ragged off first" he was subbed out with someone else at around 70 mins.

I just hope one of the criteria for any new signing will be pace, if we have pace all over the pitch we wont be hampered in the same way we have with these slugs we are stuck with.

A good midfielder and a good right back, both quick with clean injury records and we're 80% of the way there for me.

We are where we are without a proper right back at the club and with big injuries in midfield. We're not far away at all.

I've no idea what we'll do as regards to forwards though, as if we've got Rodriguez, with Sigurdsson signing a new contract and both of Richarlison and DCL nailed on starters, I don't know what winger or striker would want to sign for us, unless we qualify for the Europa League.

PACE

Your finest post this.

 

[billyblue80]

We need a playmaker who can get around the pitch and dictate. And pace and creativity on the right. Those are the key areas for me.

 

[billyblue80]

Is there any decent players at any of the clubs likely to go down this season? We did alright last year with Doucoure and Godfrey.

André-Frank Zambo Anguissa. I reckon he would be a smart and reasonable addition.

The club shop will be sending you flowers & a bottle of plonk for this.

Just looked at some of his clips again he is an allrounder with power, can take on players, drive forward and lay on assists. Fulham bought him for 22m so around 25-30m would be reasonable. Depends the market we are looking at if we could get a Kessie or Rabiot we would probably look there first but I think he would be a shrewd buy.

Back up ST

CM who can drive forward with the ball

RW who can actually whip a cross in / have a crack at goal

RB who has the pace to get up and down the field and also whip a cross in

priorities this summer window

Agree with this.

RW who may actually take someone on and commit players would be wonderful

Free agent players 2021

GK: Rui Silva, Donnarumma
DEF: Elseid Hysaj, Jerome Boateng
MID: Luka Modric, Hakan Calhanoglu, Julian Draxler
ATT: Florian Thauvin, Moussa Marega, Memphis Depay, Lucas Vazquez

Which of them would you try to get? I know that not all of are possible, because bigger teams with bigger paychecks will try to get them, but it could be worth trying to get at least one free agent player.

Thauvin, Depay & Draxler, that is a superb 3 in behind DCL/Richy. Some options there with James as well.....

Donnarumma if he was available is a no brainer.

Wont get any but fun while the idea lasted, I`d hope Everton are in contact with individuals whose contracts are coming to an end, I highly doubt it though.

@catcherintherye @BlueToff and anyone else...

With the £200mil naming rights deal over 10 years at £20mil a season by USM...

Will that enable us to use the £20mil per year on transfer fees?

So theoretically from this we could spend £100mil this summer on players over 5 year contracts with £20mil paid each year?

Plus of course the sales of existing players such as:

Kenny
Mina
Keane
Gomes
Sigurdsson
Iwobi
Bernard
Tosun
Delph
Kean

So possibly £150mil in transfer fees + £100mil naming rights injection (over 5 years of players contracts) to be used this summer = £250mil in transfer 'warchest' ?

 

[billyblue80]

Is Thauvin worth looking at? He had a rough time at the barcodes but was young he has decent stats this season. Does he have pace and a delivery?

 

[Carloblues]

Gordon started the game which doesn't spell "horrific" and didn't get "ragged off first" he was subbed out with someone else at around 70 mins.

Subbed off when chasing a goal doesn't look good though does it, was left out completely the game before and the Preston manager saying he's not ready or taking to many touches or something anyway.
