Everton Transfer Thread - Summer 2020

I hope it’s not Llorente who will be coming in as it would be a waste of time, guessing we have deal to loan Milik lined up.

Sandro, Bolasie & Besic have been on my have to be gone list, yes there’s a few others I’d like to add but these 3 drain the most wages and will never make a match day squad. Would be a blow if they can’t be shifted

Why would Llorente be a waste of time?

Not every player we sign has to be some young up and comer. He has a fairly unique skillset and the manager knows him. Also he will probably be a bit part player, it's hard to get someone in to do that.
 
If we replace Kean with Lorente it will be a stupid move. Lorente is not good enough for what we want to achieve. He had a good season with Swansea several years ago and that's it. Getting a quality backup striker is important just ask City.
 
Honestly think we will only sign Godfrey and that’ll be us, there isn’t any links to anyone apart from Milik.
 

Personally I think we will sign Godfrey tomorrow and that's about it.

I think we will be focusing on getting outs more than ins.

Maybe someone like milik on loan, at a push but I don't see it.
 
Although deals can go wrong at any time , I think that we can take it as read that we have a replacement forward coming in. Godfrey is also a done deal , in my opinion..
Don't have any idea who the forward is though , as Brands keeps his cards close to his
chest , and the club is more professionally run than it used to be. Set myself up for a fall
there , if one of the deals falls through as we will have the usual anti Brands suspects cryarsing all over the forum.
Should be interesting tomorrow.
Hopefully somebody is daft enough to come in for the deadwood too.
 
Instead of sitting back glorying in our excellent start, which is what it is, we are now worrying that we have drooped a clanger in not signing a recognised striker. Watkins was an absolute bargain for Villa. Who is left we might go for in 24 hours?
I got an email yesterday from an American Turk who watches Chelsea when he is in the UK, and said we have ruined Tosun who he rates as a top striker. He never showed it for us.
Nobody is worrying that we dropped a clanger in not buying a recognised striker. Up until the last few days we didn't need one. We have the current top striker in the top five European leagues as our first choice and Brazils centre forward as back up. We had a 20 year old Italian International as third choice and we have no European football.

OK, so it's come to light that our third choice striker is unsettled and Carlo has decided that it is best he goes out on loan, so we need a replacement third choice striker. I'm 100% confident Carlo and Brands have this in hand,

However good this Villa lad is he was never on our radar. We can't buy every player who comes available and our need earlier in the window was our midfield. The 3 players we brought in instead of spending money on Watkins are the reason we are now sitting top of the table.

We have not been glorifying in our excellent start. The manager, coaches and players have been working incredibly hard to get us where we are and Brands and the backroom staff have also been working incredibly hard to make this the best transfer window ever.

Now Kean has gone we do indeed need another striker. The chances are the financials will dictate that we bring one in on loan but Mosh may yet surprise us on that score. Even if we don't get one tomorrow there are still some quality players in the Championship we could bring in up until the middle of October.
