Braithwaite and Onana won’t be at Everton next year; neither will Pickford.
McNeil is utter trash and Patterson and Garner haven’t done anything “exceptional”

Might be an unpopular opinion but I actually think Thelwell has done very well so far given the situation around him. Maupay and Vinagre on loan have been his only flops and from things I've seen from Lampard apparently vetoed a load of other strikers more like Calvert Lewin because he wanted someone with PL experience. So he's got Vinagre really to answer for, that's about it.
On the other hand though Tarkowski, Onana, McNeil and Garner are all good signings that improved the squad and would be sold for big profit tomorrow if offers came in. He also negotiated fantastic deals for Coady and Gana too, with them both costing a combined £5m if we made Coady permanent. He's also done decent business on outgoings too, would've liked to get a bit more for Richarlison but in fairness to get nearly £110m for him and Gordon combined is unreal business.
Big summer ahead for him but I trust him, especially if he's not meddled and allowed to just do the job.

Yeah he has done well, working under the hardest of hard circumstanes, even in January, too not land us with total deadwood that would not save us, that was important too.
Looking at the recruitment of the scouting and various staff, he is only just starting to do the role he wants to. Will be interesting to see how we progress

I think January might have been the toughest month for any DoF in the world if they were in his position. You had utter turmoil at the club from top to bottom, the manager being sacked, then the club trying to go for Bielsa and then Dyche, two styles of play that couldn't be more different, then you had the owner going out being a dope and saying we'll get a striker, then bidding £40m for Conor Gallagher basically informing every club that we've got money to spend, Danjuma rejecting us right before signing a deal and then the chairman butting his fat head into every potential deal leading to nothing getting done. This is basically all information that the club put out too, I can't even imagine what else might've been going on.
I don't hold anything against Thelwell in regards to what happened in January. It was a thankless job. The fact that he was even able to line up deals for Elanga, Danjuma and Beto are a testement in my opinion, the fact they fell through isn't really anything to do with him.
Personally, I find the people who try to lay the blame at Thelwell or really at Brands when he was here are just truly very naive. I don't think either man are the best DoF's in the world but the fact that Moshiri and Kenwright are the bosses of this club make it an impossible job for anyone, they not only bow to every manager's opinion but they also directly overrule thier DoF by trying to involve themselves in deals.
There's a reason that Brands got a job after leaving Everton, Thelwell will do the same, the likes of Kenwright, DBB and the rest of the higher ups at Everton will never work in football again though, such is why they're hanging on with their death grips and refuse to let go.
