Everton Transfer Thread - Summer 2020

[TyphooToffee]

I've long been an admirer of Willian. I imagine he'll go to Spurs if he stays in England, because of Mourinho, but I'd love it if Carlo talked him into coming to us.

 

[Azza]

Can't wait to see him progress form the U23 into the first team under the tutelage of Unsworth. What he's done so far with our youngsters has been outstanding.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Dejan Kulusevski, 20 years old, midfielder, Parma (on loan from Juventus). I highlly recommend him. Juve have financial problems.

Well if he's highly recommended from yourself it's an absolute no brainer. Get him in!

Hopefully him and Branthwaite are training full time with the first team.

We have Gomes, Iceland, Delph, Gmblammo, Davies, then we have Beni and Besic, as you say most of them are injured or simply not good enough, but the way I look at is this. Would you rather have Gomes in midfield next to Zidane or Walcott RW and Coleman RB. Im not using this to slate Walcott or Coleman, I consider both decent options, but I really want better.

I know Gomes hasn't looked up to scratch, but with the numbers we have and like or not the limited kitty, I would rather focus or money elsewhere than 2 CMs, now of course we don't have to buy 2, we could loan them, but still I feel as tho we have bloat in the middle and would rather see some of it go before we added more.

I take the point I would hope we can move a few on though... Also I'll say it again none of the names, apart from Gomes or potentially Gbamin (and he is out for most of this year) you mentioned are either fit enough of the time or good enough to be starters(Beni we have no idea, Besic is clearly not rated by the club) but yeah if we only have enough for one quality CM I see that logic too. I just don't even rate our depth.

Very brief video of that lad, as you can imagine with him being a youth player, not much footage publicly.

Obviously cant read too much into a 1 minute video but I think he's going to be the best player ever to play for the club

Looks an absolute unit. The song on that video is terrible.

 

[Duncan’s Pigeon Loft]

Griezmann to United looking on again. Would that mean one of their forwards would be on the way out? I’d have Martial here. (Even if it just means he won’t be able to score his annual goal against us)

 

[Arteta10]

Just read that Thomas Partey has a 45million pound release clause in his contract

Only seen a few games of him admittedly, but he looks like exactly what we need in the centre of the park.

Was great at Anfield a few months ago

Yeah I think Kenny, Bernard & Besic will be the most likely to go for fees.

Im just looking forward to next June when contracts expire for:

Sandro
Bolasie
Walcott
Besic

Lot of wages freed up there

I just wonder if we’ll keep Kenny as it’s basically a ready made back up to Coleman for free, and then use the funds to strengthen our midfield

Maybe but selling Kenny helps us alot FFP speaking mate - I dont think money is an issue for us its the actual FFP books.

Thats why for me I would sell Bernard/Kenny as the two would fetch us a big profit.

Until the USM naming rights deal comes in I think we need to be clever player trading wise.

 

[Neiler]

Hopefully a good one, that looks like Garbutts squad spot - such as it was - redistributed.

I’m with you on that - it’s a bit of a weird one currently as I’m not sure what the FFP restrictions are for this coming season. The book profits from selling both of them would be very nice though. Hopefully we can sell a bit more of the deadwood like Tosun, Bolasie, Sandro etc and strengthen our midfield though

I saw this the other day and it was saying that Arsenal can't afford the release fee, we should be right in there imo, lack of european football might be an issue though.

But if we sell Kenny we will have to fork out at least all the money we make on him to buy a replacement, hence wiping any positive FFP cred.

So what would be the point of it? Or am i not understanding something about FFP here?
