Everton Transfer Thread - Summer 2020

[NeilA1878]

Cahill- hungry from a lower league club
Arteta- failed at a mid table Spanish club
Pienaar- failed at an OK Dortmund
Lukaku- young but didnt get success at Chelsea
Lescott- hungry from a lower league club
Jagielka- decent season with a relegated club
Gueye- ok with a relegated club
Baines- good young player from relegated club
Coleman - 60k from Ireland
Richarlison- expensive young player after ok season
Barry- free transfer veteran from champions

Could name dozens of players with similar backgrounds for us that didn't work out...


I don't see a pattern here... Maybe minus one or two these have been our best players over a decade. Teams always have different needs and there is never a one size fits all.

i think sarr at watford would be a very good acquisition. he has always impressed me every time i see him play.

He looks fast across the ground not sure about the rest like.

Correct.

It's okay to sign older experience who can add quality but no-resale
It's okay to sign potential with sell on.

We will get to it ASAP now, Don Carlo ain’t messing around

 

[GwladysBlue]

Think it’s safe to say we have a big budget again going off Carlo’s comments.

 

[Goat]

Hmmmm.

Did he say I THINK?

 

[Armaghtoffee]

Hmmmm.

Did he say I THINK?

He did actually say it (about 16 mins in) but he has a very positive tone when saying it. He is in no doubt he will be backed.

 

[mos6141]

Hmmmm.

Did he say I THINK?

he said think, but Paul Joyce tweet captures the tone of what he said better

 

[DaChunk]

USM money confirmed then. Nice.

 

[Nymzee]

Hmmmm.

Did he say I THINK?

[Zezti]

Yeah I've seen enough during lockdown to determine he's not worth more than 10m.
