January Transfer Window 2023

EFC_FRANCIS · January 25, 2023

Seriously though the club gets told by their top managerial target that we're far too slow for him and our answer is to buy Hakim Ziyech?

When posters saw his great stats in Holland i said he was too lightweight and overrated...

Not changed my mind on him.

Wouldnt even be excited in a loan.

We have Demz Gray hitting all our corners into the Family Enclosure.

Ziyech wont be coming here, but we would be fools to turn him down if available on loan.

Doesnt score or assist. Also doesnt track back. Whats the attraction?

The great thing is I bet someone like Sevilla or Fiorentina would get Ziyech for about £8m but as soon as they see Everton come bounding over the hills it’s BANG £25m hand it over lads.

His 1 assist this season would make him our 2nd highest assister.

And hes started 4 games.

How much did we get for Broadhead?

Bristol Blue · January 25, 2023

Hardly a Bielsa type player (if he does come in as manager).
But the Skysports report does sound like something we’d definitely do.

On loan I genuinely don't see us being able to do any better. At Chelsea he's a lesser light, if he came here and was given licence to be a bit of a free spirit then I think he could do very well. He has ability that none of our other players have in terms of opening the game up, and his set pieces are on a different level to what we have. For a permanent deal it's totally different obviously.

You don't turn down Hakim Ziyech on loan you madmen

hktoffee · January 25, 2023

Ziyech on loan with option to buy why not? Look who is taking the set-pieces for Everton.

Tbh it’s only on here that a loan has been mentioned, rumours we’re readying a £25m bid should cause alarm bells.

Yep, on loan, its a no brainer for me.

For 25m? Not a chance.

It seems totally unrealistic to me tho, surely hes gonna get vastly better offers.
