Everton Summer transfers 2021

[Death]

they the ones you deliver ?

Bit of a pay dispute with the boss. Hard man to get a hold off.

Yes let's argue over nicknames much more fun

Just weird for grown men to call Man Utd ‘manure’. But whatever.

Since we let King go I wouldn't be opposed to bringing in Steven Naismith just for 1 season as cover. Cheap option while we push the funds to other areas.

I don't myself but of things I am going to get annoyed online about, this is near the bottom.

Please god, no!

 

[jazzy]

Brands all over this. Nuno's just helpful for the language barrier

Can honestly say I've never heard of him. What position does he play , is he any good and one for the local fans how will we get a work permit if he hasn't played for Brazil?

Portuguese passport apparently

We are no longer in the EU

Delete this before anyone sees.

Please god, no!

By all accounts he's a great guy on and off the pitch. That's what we're all about at everton so would be a good example for the likes of DCL and Simms.

 

[jerseytoffee]

We still need a work permit though right? Brexit and everything?

Ah yeah that nonsense! No idea then

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Good news if that Brazilian bhoy signs although I would like two CM's this summer one being a top drawer one.

This cat sounds like he's good squad cover but could do with someone to build the midfield around.

 

[blueboy1945]

Ribs and peas soup mate and you ?

Food of the Gods.

 

[Zatara]

How would him being younger than 27 or 28 make him harder to move on?

The opposite would be true. You know this.

At 27/28 there would be a history of performance we would be buying him on.

So if he flopped then people would still remember those performances and may be happy to take him off us in the hope that he would deliver as he had previously done.

Zat likes them young and flexible

Like Godfrey, LB, CB, RB youre correct.

Or like the boy at Brighton, White...RB, DM, CM. Seems to be a good player to have.

Not seen much of him but what ive seen and (mostly) read/heard he seems like a good signing for us....especially if we go 3 at the back.

Valid rule.

I'd counter the application of it in this instance by pointing out that the same player (Philips) just had an excellent season in the Prem.

Buy him. Now.

Also, if Dumfries delivers against one of the top sides for this woeful dutch team then it would go a long way to showing he can step up to the premier league.

Sometimes its worth more money for that extra comfort.

I reckon he's going to go somewhere this window for some big money.

He's a great player, and he's going to get the chance to advertise that this tournament, just as he did yesterday.

Where do you see Phillips going and how much for?

I wonder whether hes now considered better than the media poster boy Declan Rice.

One thing is for sure...we need a DM.

He could flop if he was 19, he could flop if he was 29, past that, I could give a rats about sell on fee. Fabio Silva was atrocious last season and I can’t see many clubs banging on the door with 30mil ready to go. It’s not so cut and dry, 23/24 is a good age to buy, should be physically matured but still a lot of years left

Fair enough...i could well be wrong.

I'll also throw this out there...

..if Nuno takes over, then the first signing he could make is Fabio Silva.

If he thought he was worth £35mil a year ago then he surely must rate him very highly. With one year under his coaching then he should have continued his upward trajectory.

Ive no idea on him myself...only 19 next month and doesnt seem very good...we do need another forward though if Kean leaves and at that age players are hard to judge.

Unless he was just a stooge for mendes...

I

take this point. It’s just like Iwobi. Squad player at Arsenal and failed at Everton.

Too old to sell on potential.

Exactly what im trying to say

Its £15 million mate, and I think at that fee he is very much worth that risk.

I know good players are more important than formations, but what midfield setup would you have him in and with which of our players ?

For me, id go for a new DM (Kamara/Guimaraes) then Allan/Doucoure box to box and James at the tip of the diamond.

I guess in that he would be competing for one of the box to box slots.

You want Kamara from Marseille, Marcel will give you Kamara from Rangers!!

Im surprised no one has snapped him up yet with one year on his deal.

Youre right though...weve even been linked before with the rangers one

Food of the Gods.

and it's something even i could do myself.

Sorry, but that's a nonsense. The trajectory would be downward while the end of his career was approaching. A younger player has more time to grow at best, and more time to remain at a level at worst.

It's always easier to sell a younger play of equivalent ability.
