Summer transfer window 2023

[Mr Happy]

Demarai Gray is an incredible player and it would be some headline if the Saudi league could poach such a premium Premier League player.

Can someone translate that into Arabic please.

Any particular dialect ?

Gray is absolutely one of the reasons we are rubbish and have been since he arrived. Hilarious that people think his 9 goals in 2 seasons (including a couple of penalties) is a positive.

Dont think anyone is saying that mate, i think what people are saying is absolutely blag the Saudis for as much as we can in negotiations - the scale of the blag is what people are arguing.

Same with iwobi.

Lad couldn't get in our team when we were challenging for Europe. Now we've been battling relegation the past two seasons hes a first team starter.

Doesn't take a genius to figure out why we've been fighting relegation.

Here it is in MSA

ديماراي غراي لاعب لا يصدق، وسيكون من العناوين الرائعة إذا استطاعت الدوري السعودي اغراء لاعبًا ممتازًا مثله من الدوري البريميرليغ.

 Gray wasn't bad for 1.5m but if they are offering anything above eight million for him sell...

I agree, I know he’s 32. But for that money you’re not looking for a future fee, he got 13 last season in a poor team, the one at Anfield was brilliant. He has those instinct to get in the box and although not the tallest, scores headers as well

I have to say, I’ve not really looked at him. Those goals were a combo of left, right and headed goals so there is a versatility of finishing, so from that perspective he looks like he may adapt to us. The only goal I possibly wouldn’t see him scoring is the one against the RS - I’d be surprised if that was his starting position in a Dyche system whilst the opposition have the ball. For me, it’s just what’s his injury record is like and his overall contribution during the 90.

I`m not adverse to ripping this team apart completely and giving a manager a team that will be his for the first time since David Moyes..... I just worry we won`t replace the ones who have gone whilst strengthening the areas we need most.

Everton did have a bloated squad, as some including Brands eluded to previously 23 is the sweet spot, 1 for every position plus an additional GK.

Evertons 1st team squad is about 31 players till 30th June when contracts and loans finish and Kean finally joins Juventus, as it stands the squad is size 24 going in to next season excluding the likes of Cannon, Warrington and Mills. We still have plenty to get rid of, I hope we just bring in some quality.

Just to illustrate my point :-

Anything for over £10m and all up-front for Gray would be a great result.

All profit, and would allow us to buy a couple of players with spaced out up-front payments.

A net outcome of Gray + £4/£5m for Harrison would be great business.

I agree but the definition of 'bloat' in this context is players we do not need to replace. I think Davies comes into this category but Onana, Gray, Iwobi, Simms and Maupay do not. (I'll leave Pickford out of it for now.) Who can we get rid of who wants to go and somebody else wants? It's going to be tough to reduce the numbers without weakening the team, I think.

Being linked to Turkish RW Ferdi Kadioglu. He has been known to play as a wing back, on the LW and occasionally through the middle. £17.2m is the we rumoured fee for the 23 year old, looks fast and tricky, can play in a few positions so could be very useful

Some highlight reel that.

I note that his 11 appearances for the Turkish national team have all been at LB. Could be competition for Myko, which we desperately need. His pace and dribbling is impressive.

 

[riddick]

Honestly think it's shambolic that we're 5 days away from July 1st and there's not even a hint of anyone coming in. All this while there is an investigation coming in that may or may not have a transfer ban on it. We have absolutely nothing right now

Some exciting out of the box scouting going on here.
