If we go down who do we keep?

[knowing your history]

gona be hard to even get behind these players next season knowing how bad theyv been , how can you forgive players who’ve just relegated your club for the first time in donkeys years

There will be 6-7 new signings even if they're very cheap so at least they'll be an initial buzz to see if anyone of them are actually good.

Guys like Garner and Patterson have barely played for six months so they haven't played that much part in the upcoming relegation really.

Been a long time since I've seen an Everton side look mentally beaten (outside of derby games)
If the worst was to happen , who do we realistically think will stay to try and help us come back up?

Gone:
Pickford
Mina
Iwobi
Onana
Maupay
Doucoure
Holgate

Maybe:
Coady (may be a sensible option for squad strength)
Gueye (wages may be too high)
Gray
Dcl (someone like arsenal may see him.as worth a punt for a plan b)
Tarkowski
godfrey
Keane
Branthwaite


I think the following is likely:
A new no1 gk
Patterson ,myko and godfrey as fullback options
Whoever stays out of tarkowski,Keane,coady and branthwaite as cb
Garner, Davies (if retained) central midfield
McNeil and gray (if he stays) out wide
Simms up front....

We'd need a massive squad overhaul and be reliant on some of the youth players stepping up

Very grim, realistic scenario we're facing

Pickford
Mina
Onana
Maupay
Doucoure
Holgate
Davies
Coleman
Gomes
Gana
Alli
DCL

There's your list of players who IMO will go/should leave/out of contract. 12 of them.

Coady won't sign as he'll want to play football and will be at West Ham or back at Wolves. Feller is an England international and premier league quality.

Pretty grim but necessary. Problem is...we won't have much money to spend and replace them.

We won't come back up put it that way

 

[wainy]

Sell them all, start again

 

[kenada_blue]

Does anyone actually care about any of them going?

If we're going to have to do a reset I'd prefer it be without any of these losers. Especially those who are at manager number 100.

No. But when there's a mass exodus we'll be looking to be getting Forest like numbers in... without the finances.

 

[hallamblue]

The only one I cared about was Richarlison and we already sold him.

 

[Bluemersey]

If? Couldn't care less about who stays I want them all gone including the board. The clubs at deaths door

 

[daza_1973]

Fire them all into the sun and start again - its the only way to reset the club

 

[Neiler]

Be selling the ones you’d like to keep.

Partly the reason why we are where we are.

Yep, look what we got with the Richie and Digne money. What a joke.

We didn’t even get that much for them when you look at the net value of their transfers in the accounts mate.

Even throwing their money at the accounts, our loss was still 40 mill, we are a black hole of dead money. It’s a myth we sell to reinvest, we sell to cover losses.

Sadly my view too. 100%

 

[twoblue]

Maupay is down as certain but Brainthwaite / Tarkowski as maybe

Those three would be class in that division if they are up the for challenge

 

[Big Sams Undies]

Not really when he's been constantly linked and would likely be available for a reduced fee

But he’s not, at all

 

[RomanReigns]

anyone on more than 40k a week will be gone

so thats like 90% of the first team
