Problem for us is we have too many players that dont suit the new Everton hence why for me this is a season of transition until we can hopefully spend a bit of dough next summer.
James
Siggurdsson
Gomes
Delph
Coleman (tries his best but his legs have gone)
Holgate
Keane
Kenny
Thats not including Toshun who's just a bum.
If you replace even half of those players with faster, stronger ones who have an ounce of ability/quality then Everton are a top 7 side.
That's fine, I don't disagree fully, but we can't currently replace anyone
And unlike 4-5 of those players, James provides real quality on a consistent basis.
Would love to see him having Gray and Richarlison and Doucoure as options for him to be picking passes to in certain games. Do you not think that would help us?
