Everton Transfer Thread - Summer 2020

Stones is better than he was when he left us, £40m for him would be good business tbh

Sorry but that's a real bad shout. He's been found wanting at Man City because he simply cabt defend. Why would we want that back? At least Keane can pass and defend (although deeply) but recruiting Stones again (near enough for what we paid him for) would be ludicrous. Why weaken our already fragile defence? Stones simply has no strength in his tackle and was bought mainly for his passing ability from a defensive position.

We actually melted him as a fanbase whilst he played in front of us for both Everton and City culminating in him genuinely crapping himself against Liverpool and also crying in a motorway service station. He is weak and there is no way he’s coming back here.

Not a good business. Because we don’t need him.

Why would you assume palace would want iwobi to replace zaha when hes been totally ineffective as a wide player for us ?

The logic of Forev is, Everton will take your best player while we unload our ultra crap players in return.

 

[Gilbert..]

Iwobi isn’t going anywhere. He’ll be a decent squad player and a good option at number 10 if we play with one.

Just stop. He's absolutely diabolical.

It’s mad ain’t it? I know under Martinez our defending was absolutely shocking but we played some great attacking football under him, probably the best I’ve seen supporting this club.

Compare that type of play to the complete and utter dross this current crop are churning out, it’s depressing.

We did for the first 14 months or so. Then Martinez got his way and we had possession and did absolutely sod all with it.

Honestly, I don't get why we didn't set ourselves up to be SUPER counter attacking. That would have been a great setup for that group of players. Besides, you know, Martinez not caring one bit about defending.

Ever read the replies to a Paul Joyce tweet?

Jesus Christ. I wouldn’t bother with it if I was him.

He’s not though is he, that’s a wild exaggeration

Well they wanted Tosun...

As I said different aspirations- we would take half of Barca's cast offs and see them as good enough for our level.

I have genuinely never seen anybody on here suggest DCL is in the same league as Rom?

I Have. A poster on here said he was better and worth £120m. Can't remeber his name.

Lunatic

Same with Gary Lineker's tweets. It's become a meme with certain people.

 

[Dymak]

I mean, this just highlights how big a job it is. Not one or two seasons that

I disagree. Most of those players only have one or two years left on their contract, so they will be gone one way or the other. I think most will go this summer.

 

[Gilbert..]

Er no. No its most certainly not. Struggle to think of a more pathetic desperate diabolical signing in all my years watching Everton.
I hope thats clear enough.

£41m for Nathan Ake tells me there's going to be no value purchases from any relegated clubs.

There hasn't been for years. Maddison went for 30m 2 years ago and had 0 top flight experience. The whole "relegated teams sell cheaper" hasn't been the case for a while now.

 

[Wayno]

I don’t watch an awful lot of Man City and from the replies I’ve received to the Stones shout I would like to go on the record and admit I was most likely wrong lol
