Everton Summer transfers 2021

[Eggs]

Tbf, Brekalow isn't really a forward. He plays on the left

...looks to play plenty from the right. His goalscoring record doesn’t look great & not sure we’ve had much joy with Croatians;

 

[Terrarian]

Wonder who we won't sign today. Danny Rose was a good shout from yesterday lol

Honestly thought he’d retired.

Honestly thought he’d retired.

Yeah he's disappeared off the scene a bit hasn't he.

 

[Curtis]

He's probably beyond our league but with Inter in financial peril should at least attempt a likely doomed move for brozovic or maybe someone who has similar attributes

God, just ignore the Konate deal man, it's been in the pipeline for months. Not everyone has a release clause (mostly Spain) and most players that do have ludicrous ones. Just pretend it never happened and dry your pants off on the line outside.

That's kind of the point. Everton never seem to be proactive.

 

[AmericasToffee]

He sticks offers on desks and walks away.

That method will get you a good deal, but will also mean you're going up to the wire.

Of course it also means your paying 34m for Iwobi, but thankfully thats the only time hes panicked.

I mean, 34m for a benchwarmer is a big mistake

This topic was alot better when eggs used to post the transfer news in the morning... How I long for those days

Brands blew the deal to re-up Eggs as chief transfer rumor sharer

Grealish or Sterling?

Two things in play here...

1: If City sign Grealish then Villa have money to spend and may well be after the same targets as us...we should be moving quickly in this market as there will be a transfer merry go round as always and we dont want to be the only side left holding a ticket.

2: Sterling is on £300k a week in wages. If he goes anywhere it would be to another rich club like a PSG or Chelsea. Having said that, i think City keep him.

The reason I said it was because of his lack of options, which sounds a bit mad. I couldn’t see him wanting to go to PSG. A lot of the other big clubs are struggling financially.

Chelsea have about 4 wingers already, wouid he go back to Liverpool or go to Utd. Maybe Spurs if Kane goes to city.

He’s been in and out the city side a lot recently, if they got Grealish, he could become even more of a bench player for them.

It’s frustrating because the club have wanted a RB & RW for over a year, so these could have easily been put in place.

We did by all accounts have Gabriel deal tied up, then COVID hit.

 

[MrGrumpy]

Think the window opens on the 9th is that right?

This windows going to be interesting as team like City and Chelsea are going to spend a fortune despite Covid
Haaland/Sancho/Kane/Grelish all in play

....don’t think I’d be in a hurry to swap Godfrey for Gabriel, it‘s funny how these things work out.

I think there’s general agreement in priority signings (RB; effective wingers; ball carrying, athletic & creative CM; back up striker). I wouldn’t want to be splashing out a large chunk of the transfer envelope on a RB, the bigger money is usually spent on the creative/goalscoring type because their skill set is superior.

 

[Nymzee]

That's kind of the point. Everton never seem to be proactive.

Signing a player with a public release clause isn’t really all that proactive. We thankfully steer clear of them as they’re mostly ludicrously high.

Should splash out and get Lukaku back (if he'd come) we would atleast have a top striker then.

Hasn't Haaland stated he will be staying at Dortmund? Mind you money talks doesn't it. TS saying Utd are going to spend £350m and here's us 'hoping' for £100m+ player sales haha and we wonder why we can't catch up.
