Everton Summer transfers 2021

Winks is much better than Gomes tho, the lad can pass it forward and it would go to a teammate.

Bad is bad

I said the other day there are some great players down there and i would be quite happy if we signed 2 or 3 of the better ones, for me someone like Olise at Reading is just a no brainer if that £8m release fee is true. Even if it did'nt work out for some reason we would still be able to move him on as he is only 19 but i actually think he could be that 3rd man in midfield moving between mid and attack.

For some reason I get the feeling we think we are better than spending pittance on some championship kid and would rather pay £30m for some 'name' in another league. But we are far from it, these young hungry players with something to prove should be the targets. As you say even if he doesnt make it, that £8mill is recouped - if he does then it makes the club ££. No brainer, but I doubt we will even look at him which is sad really

But thats not the standard. For the money he would cost there will be better, younger and cheaper wages elsewhere. Thats just lazy scouting to me

This Adam Armstrong from Blackburn whose been linked, wasnt he playing with DCL in the England u20 world cup a few years back ?

No idea. Lad who came through the ranks at Newcastle, no?

Players with a low release clause always come down to a bidding war over personal terms and quality of life. This is why Chelsea gets a lot of those at the top end - deep pockets, London and regular CL.

I doubt that it's so much that we're looking for names as that we haven't had the regular European football on offer - it's how we lost Hojbjerg to Spurs.

The reality is that we're going to have to pay market value for most ready-to-play purchases, and if we want bargains then we're going to have to figure out how to develop very young players, which is not Carlo's forte.

Reckon they’d do us a deal on all 3?

Straight swap for Gomes so they can at least maintain their Portuguese quota

 

[stretford blue]

Wonder what price they put on Neto a player that would make a massive difference to us

 

[MACCA75]

Traore was great last season but seems to have lost that end product again. I’d take the other two.

 

[JMT]

People would be on Neves back weekly here.

Anyone got access to Iwobi’s family tree? I’ll offer a cash reward to anyone that can prove Portuguese lineage.

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Neto maybe. Traore I'm just not convinced about. Is Neves a step up on what we have. He's a good passer but terribly slow when we are crying out for more dynamism.

Traore is as Everton as they come. We’d all give him terrible grief while he was here, only to fawn over him like we do Deulofeu, once he’s had enough and done one.

I think Traore fits what we need to a t, but I know others will disagree and say something about end product even though most wingers in this league don’t put up huge numbers.
