Goats squad analysis thread 2023/24

[Cameron Manning]

We're in major trouble at the end of the season aren't we?
I count 9 out of 25 out of contract. And I'm unsure on the CB's. Could we see 10 players walk away for free at the seasons end? We're playing bloody hell now with two signed, the chancers running this club don't have 10 replacements in them for signing next summer.

Yes true enough we could be in major trouble at the end of this season, but Rita, let’s get this season out of the way first!

 

[Cameron Manning]

Will be 22 when Gbamin, Gomes, Holgate get gone. 21 if Gray is sold.

Not to mention Dele, can’t see him playing many more games for the Blues,but wish him well nevertheless.

 

[DanEFC92]

Our midfield is honking.

And don't see many rumours of any midfielders being linked either.

Very exciting attacking options linked, but that midfield is a black hole.

Thank God we have Keggers to HOOOF.

I listen to the various Everton podcasts (your Blue Rooms, ToffeeTVs etc) in work, none of them mention the midfield. Like it's a settled issue.

I don't get it. It's like I'm taking crazy pills.

I'll put a spread on when he leaves.

Which part of the midfield?

Everybody who isnt Onana and Garner.

So Gana. Then i guess youre including the advanced Doucoure and Iwobi?

Doucoure is fine for a season, he brings energy, power and goals.

[Steve EFC]

Pretty depressing looking at that squad, as a bare minimum we need another striker still, and a winger for attacking options off the bench. Oh and also a CB.
Can’t see it happening though

 

[Rita_Poon]

Besides Townsend and Begovic, who were released end of last season?
