Everton Transfer Thread - Summer 2020

[ValBlue]

He's in the last year of his contract. He shouldn't be that pricey at all.

Don't think he'd be a poor signing at all but who knows

To be fair I didn’t know he was in the last year of this contract so that’s a plus. I do know there is a bit of other PL interest though so we’d have to hold our nerve and not be drawn into driving up the price

Not enamoured with Hojbjerg at all, and I really don't think he will be as cheap as people think.

Spot on lad will still cost around the £18-20 million mark.

The only player we should be signing from Southampton is Ings - this Hojbjerg bloke doesn't impress at all.

Hojberg = master of backward passes

Hojberg = master of backward passes

I actually seen him pass back and point the other week

Hojberg = master of backward passes

He was pretty much a regular in a Pep Guardiola side at 18 for 6 months... he can defo pas forward

Bring a blue home re stones

Hojbjerg is a McCarthy clone, so all you McCarthy lovers will love him.

 

[Brownie]

For me it's very important that we do not sign Pierre-Emile Hojberg.

 

[Connor]

Hojbjerg is a McCarthy clone

Oh YES

The problem is, and I'm not advocating we sign him, the likes of a Gana or Kante don't come around all that frequently, so expectations need to be managed accordingly. Look elsewhere by all means but have a plan c in mind. Sure Carlo has this covered and if he does sign Hojberg then I trust his methods.

Need a new pointer in the team!

I agree to an extent, but when the two main qualities we're lacking in midfield are pace and athleticism, it seems strange to target a player with neither. Moreover, I just don't think he's very good - be about Plan V for me.

There is a news story in Spain linking us with a move for Emerson Royal, he is a right back, currently on loan at Real Betis, but owned by Barcelona. There are a few clubs credited with an interest though, including Tottenham and Bayern Munich

Hes the guy ive been banging on about for a while now. The boy is class...as in will be the next Brazil right back.

If this came off then...WOW.

 

[Zatara]

@OneTrueLegend if we signed Emerson and Gabriel then we'd have a top 4 starting defence.

Thats how good they are. Both will become mainstays for Brazil and with Holgate and Digne there we look the strongest for decades.

Id expect that in a couple of seasons we would be fending off the super clubs for those two.

Fraser? Swap England’s number 1 for a guy who not only didn’t make the squad but couldn’t make it as first choice at Southampton?

Known to Soton fans fondly as Feet of Cement.
