Everton January 2025 Transfer Thread

[Mr Happy]

If you could get a fit and switched on Evan Ferguson he could transform the squad. All-round potential is far higher than Lukaku’s was for me.

Wow

Big “if” though, isn’t it? Similar to the “if we can get Dele up for it again” argument.

I mean a little bit smaller of an if there.

 

[Nymzee]

From the presser:

- Definitely needs 2 in
- Isn’t looking at full-backs this month with time restrictions
- Attacking players and maybe another midfielder
- Seems like he’s aiming for seasoned pros
- Kinda poo-poo’d Nuamah by questioning that he’s not played in England before

He seemed to be destined for a massive move and even that couldn’t stop him from giving in to his baser instincts. Not sure a massive step down to one of the league’s clown clubs is gonna be the thing to bring him back to his senses. Might make slightly more sense in the summer, but if we’re able to get someone in this window they have to be able to get going immediately.

Yeh again it’s an if. He might have injury troubles his whole career, might love the lifestyle too much his whole career too.

Just for plain talent though he is exceptional in all areas. Best academy striker I’ve watched since Rooney.

That does seem to be a pretty widely held opinion, to be fair, and the romantic in me would love to see Moyes mkII do the old “revive a flagging career” trick that he did with Arteta, Pienaar, etc, but it just seems like every punt we take ends disastrously these days so I’d be reticent.

Yeh loan with option would be lovely.

Anyone fancy an argument?

Take it to the ale house.

From that presser I’d guess Willian and a couple of championship players

Unless we cancel one or both domestic loans though we are screwed - if it's even a possibility, so happy we decided to take a long term injured player and one who'd already shown he was dog turd the previous season at us

I'd take Ferguson with an option every day of the week over Chukwuemenka btw.

Dreamer in me still has hopes on Mcatee, rumour today Mainz are talking about a loan deal. Moyes presser he cited the championship, cited wanted someone seasoned on the league, cited they need to have the Everton DNA, Mcatee kinda ticks the first two just about and sure as anything has the third - literally. McNeil going down long term for me makes it an absolute no brainer to at least try for him.

Loads of trip on deadline dy from

- Kinda poo-poo’d Nuamah by questioning that he’s not played in England before

...but these time restrictions dont apply to the other 'two' he's looking to get in?


Brilliant logic there from the Moyesiah.

Zero chance of Willian mate. Moyes isn't an idiot, the player is completely washed up.
