Schneiderlin will be gone. Not good enough nor happy here.
Lookman is, as far as I'm concerned, gone.
Niasse missed around 15 matchday squads before being included again. Gone.
Tosun left out for 'technical' reasons. Gone.

Lozano in and either the lad from Leipzig on a Lian to buy deal or the lad barbosa in a similar one, cm to come in too. 5 out 3 in.
 
We wont be filling 5 gaps C, of that I can assure you.

Dowell and Holgate dont need replacing, im almost certain both will be going out, Beni also I suspect, McCarthy possibly also, add Morgan and honestly all those players can be replaced by 1 player, its not like any of them bar Morgan have even played for us. Holgate should only be a loan, we will need him when Jags leaves, the others can go for all I care. I do like McCarthy, hell I even still hold hope for Morgan, but realistically both their Everton careers are done.

If Lookman goes, he would need replacing, despite him not playing much, we need a body if he goes and as you say, Tosun and Niasse are a package deal of uselessness, so I reckon :

Out
Lookman
Holgate
Beni
Morgan
McCarthy
Dowell
Tosun
Niasse

3 players in to replace em all.

Which is very unlikely, cant even see us signing 3 players to be quite honest, lets see by some miracle we sold all those, excluding the loans for the young lads, 70m tops? Thats even if we can sell them, probably talking loans for them. Be enough 2 sign 2 players? Unless Marcel goes shopping at bargain central of course, but we need a Baller Striker, so 3 would be pushing it.

If Lookman went rbl, chances are we'd strike as part of the deal that Augustin lad as a loan to buy maybe goat, barbosa also available in a similar deal, spend anything raised from sales on lozano, try fish around for a cm option - could end up easily with lozano being paid for almost by Lookman being sold, one or two loans and then whatever we get for niasse, Schneider and tosun going on a cm

Im someone that rates Augustin but id much rather we went for Upamecano from Leipzig...could be very good next to Mina as the first choice duo.
 

Going to be a lot of movement this window i think...

We have 6-8 players who could be loaned/sold and would only need 2/3 to replace them in the squad.

We spent £43mil on Tosun and Walcott last January so if the same amount is made available then we could have a very big pot of cash.
The major movements this window will be bowel movements when we don’t sign the six players some lads want us to sign
 
Gomes wont sign until the summer realistically.

A 2nd CM and RB can also wait imo although I think Doucoure is a possiiblity.

We just need to go all out for a ST and RW who can both score/create chances.

For me this is closest but I still don’t see why we think Silva and Brands are going to for a new winger (right or left). We bought 2 in the summer and got Lookman back. So unless one of the 4 leave forget it. It’s just not a priority.

This January is all about finding the right striker, not just an available one.
A Digne quality RB would be my personal wish but also think we will wait for the summer for that.. or just give Kenny another run till then would do me to grow him further.

Wouldn’t be surprised so see nothing happen either and the players given the whole season to settle in and only additions happen if we sell to plug the gaps.
 

From what Mosheri said on the radio the other week, I will be surprised if we sign one player.
What did he say?
I think we’ll move a few players on and get a one or 2 in. We should be able to get a decent amount for Tosun, Niasse and Schneiderlin. Spend that on a decent new striker and we’ll be far better off.

If Richarlison stays CF (with DCL in reserve) then Bernard can play on the left.

If we play Richarlison on the left then Bernard is on the bench or at least rotating. Not forgeting Lookman on the left also...

On the right we have Walcott...

So for me a right sided player to push Walcott out is a priority + the right back...

After those, two CM one CF and a CB.
