Everton Summer transfers 2021

[Eggs]

Nunes sounds good

….I’ve said for a while there’s no real option for Gomes in that DM ball playing position, hopefully Brands has found one.

 

[Eggs]

The one thing I'd say for him, is he looks about 6 ft. There are clips on that where he is just much bigger than players in the Portuguese league, and sprints pat them. Now we have to acknowledge the PL is bigger and faster than the Portuguese league, but these are important fundamentals if you want to succeed.

It's not a sure fire answer either, as Gomes had a brilliant physique but hasn't really done it for us. However I think it gives you a chance. I'd rather sign a player of this ilk, than say a Vlasic, who with the nicest will in the world is gifted technically but a little one paced for me.

…yep, first thing I looked at was his size - 6ft. Gomes has terrific size but he’s dreadfully slow & immobile, this bloke isn’t. We need Gomes option, hopefully we’ve found one.

No

And I’m on on no high horse, you engaged me over Mendes. I informed you of his dealings and you seemed blatantly unaware of his dealings.

So yeah, good one.

Thanks for informing me I am not as naive as you think, I know of Mendes's game at Wolves and the they have not done too badly out of it. But it's up to Everton and NOT Mendes if he thinks he will have the influence that he has at Wolves. Again if he pushes a few talented players towards our club, all good and well, as long as they are the right type, the type that were desperate for, quick, skillfull and be able to run with the ball. I'm sick of all our slow, one paced players, that our recent managers and Brands have brought in. I wouldn't mind a Jota, a Netto, etcetera at Everton i don't know about you and if Mendes can bring them and we need them and Brands and Co can't then so be it.

We already have one absolutely hopeless Portuguese player , the other may as well join the circus.

Do you know a lot about him?

Do you know a lot about him?

This is what I originally quoted (see below), nothing at all was mentioned about the young Brazilian lad from sporting.

It's going to be open season for us signing no mark Portugese players on ridiculously inflated fees and wages when Santa takes over.

Looks like a Brands prototype. South American hustle and bustle with the physicality to survive in the Prem.

 

[AmericasToffee]

I will get a good laugh if Brands has been pursuing this guy for months and signs him without Nuno coming.

 

[blueconverse]

Never heard of the lad from Lisbon so commited the mortal sin of watching a youtube video of him. Looks quick and can beat a man, will probably take a while to adjust to pl but looks good

 

[Pabbers]

Hes brazilian but its a fair point.



23 in a couple of months and yet to have a 'breakout season' as the yanks say.

I think he may be the type to join newcastle and kick on...but if be doesnt...€20mil is alot of money for his current level.

Cant even get in ahead of Joao Mario lol




Brazilian....some top players at sporting at the moment but hes not one of them.



Feeder club!




Think they offered loan to buy at £10mil ?

I think the idea is to get them in before they are playing every single game for these Euro clubs...before the price is doubled or trebled.

just 1 example, look at Neto at Wolves, I dont think he had played 20 senior football games. They took the gamble because he had some raw attributed that could really push him on to shine.

Who's Pedro Almeida?

Brazilian kid

Next week this time we'll be cursing Pedro Almeida for lying to us and wondering if Nuno stays for the full five-year term if we will have the opportunity to reclaim our PL status after relegation.

I love you Everton FC.

Gomes has to leave -offers nothing.

It might just be me, but I seem to remember him being a better mover in his 1st season. But he has declined. As you say, this guy seems quick.

…yep, good point about his loan spell. The weaknesses in mobility and pace were not as obvious.

i think Gomes is supposed to be lots about ball retention & starting moves off. This lad seems to have an additional dimension with his running power. Let’s not forget, Gomes is also very easy to run beyond.
