I would keep Kenny and Keane...

lol i wonder if we will move on Bernard and go with Iwobi/Gordon on the left. Then Walcott right with a major signing coming in there.

If we could find another Kanchelskis from somewhere then the whole team steps up a level. Someone that good would be a game changer.


I wonder though if this window may be focused on cheaper signings e.g Thiago Silva, Hojbjerg, Todibo and the bigger pot on a right winger

....if we are being frugal, I doubt we’ll bring two CBs in.
 

I get how we set up and Ancellotti’s tactics, but it’s not something he’s going to be doing much of in the future I wouldn imagine. 5 or 6 games a season?.

As if he’s continuing with this 442. And 352 out of possession. Then no point in targeting a RW.

Its interesting if Ancelotti doesnt need a RW for the system.

We would then need a centre back (Gabriel/ Thiago Silva) and a RB who shifts across (Todibo).

Who could we sign or use to fill that RM slot under similar inatructions to Iwobi last match?

....that’s why we need a squad giving Ancelotti options. The Iwobi ‘instructions’ are fine against a top team, but we’ll need somebody more expansive in most games.

The other position to monitor is LB. I know Baines has been offered a new contract but from what was said yesterday, he hasn’t agreed that extension and there’s nobody obvious coming through from the Academy.

Pretty much agree with that. Looking at that list of players though shows how much it's going to take to turn Everton around. Even that squad has 4 or 5 at best who could develop into top 6 team players.
 

Feel free to explore for your self but it certainly isn't 100% in there. I browsed a bit and I'd say it is a majority positive though so I guess it counts.

Also a bit of self vaulting and I did say some smart stuff about Richarlison, but also had a horrendous it doesn't matter what we paid if he is top class like Pickford is top class shout. Yikes.

You said someone the fans didn’t think was good signing from the PL; I don’t recall many people not wanting Richarlison; maybe some thought expensive but no one said he wasn’t good.

If we head into next season with two players at left mid that can’t play left mid we won’t get Top 10.
 

For me your players to cull is way off.
Take out
Kenny
Keane
Baningime
Delph
Dowell

Whilst some of those academy players might not deserve to be culled I think a few could be sold to help our FFP position. They’re pure profit. If Schalke are offering any sort of decent fee for Kenny I’d be amazed if we don’t take it.

If they can do the job is it not better to keep and save on any expensive outlay. At least we know about them and do not find out to late if signings are crap like under the mangers before Carlo.

He said baines will decide at the end of the season, hopefully he will sign. He's a more than able deputy, and has served us very well over the years.
