BUY/LOAN A MIDFIELDER AND STRIKER AND CENTRE BACK PLEASE.

Marcel Brands logging into his computer this morning and sees this.

"Man's a genius! Why didn't I think of that?!"

We'll hopefully find out soon mate.

With Gbamin close to his comeback...do we need a CM?

I'm not sure.

Considering that between 23rd feb and 11th April we have we have 7 games with 6 of those being against the top 6 (if you count Leicester as a top 6 side currently) we are proper slacking with transfers as per usual

With Gomes back rehabbing as well...

I heard that Brands and his entire staff are sat playing Kerplunk six hours a day.

Probably more likely playing monopoly since it takes about a month to complete a full game

The worst thing is that all the other clubs have bought about 5 world class players each. We are proper doomed.

- According to Gazetto Dello Sport, Ancelotti has told the Everton Board that his ‘dream signing’ is Napoli central midfielder, Allan, but it’s an ‘impossible signing’. Instead, the club will try and find a ‘photocopy’ of the 29 year old Brazilian.

Haven't seen much of Napoli but this is from Allan's Wiki:

Allan operates primarily as a defensive midfielder or as a central midfielder and is equally comfortable at playing both in an attacking and defensive midfield role; he is also capable of being deployed in a deeper role as a playmaker. As such, he has also been labelled a box-to-box midfielder in the media. He is also capable of playing on the left or right flank, and has even been deployed as a full-back on occasion.

Normally deployed as a holding midfielder in front of the back-line, Allan is known as a dynamic, physically strong, tenacious, and energetic right-footed midfielder, with good ball-winning abilities. He also possesses good technique, dribbling skills, pace and good long passing ability, which enables him to start attacking plays after winning back possession. He has been described as a complete and tactically versatile midfielder, who is different from traditional defensive midfielders, due to his reputation for dribbling past defenders and passing the ball through the legs of an opponent, a move known as the nutmeg.

He sounds great but at 29 and presumably a big fee we may be better looking at younger alternatives?

So are 15 other clubs, only Liverpool (who didn’t need to), Villa, Norwich and Palace have done anything of note

He is a steady player who will do a job, nothing flash.

Why not Buckaroo? Schneiderlin is here for a while yet, may as well make use of him?
