Everton January 2025 Transfer Thread

I don't think anyone should be fuming today.

David Moyes has been the best signing of the whole window.
Yep, that's true.

Hopefully Moyes knows well what he needs and if he needs to get it in this window, I hope we go get someone that will meet those needs. I would obviously like some new faces, but realise that this is not the time for any particularly great value unless desperation demands them to come in - and I don't think we're as desperate as we were after the last few games.

If he thinks he can wait until the Summer and there's a plan of attack to get them in then, I think that is the right approach as unexciting as it is for the transfer window.

Keep us safe and try and push into the mid-table positions, have a go at the FA Cup - and then next season, let's see if we can kick on again (from the very 1st whistle). Time will tell if we needed anyone this window, but if we get into next season in the PL with a new stadium and a decent 1st eleven that doesn't cause groans and moans from all, with some options from the squad, then we'll be in a far better position than we have in a long, long time.
 

Making excuses for liars.

Take a look in the mirror.

Is this what you see when you look in the mirror?
 

...and so it begins.

The first Moyes era dumbing down of expectations now being reignited.

You have to hand it to Moyes, he knows how to play Evertonians: just tell them we're lucky to be in the Pl with him in charge and they'll eat 💩.
This is comical. Dyche wasn't exactly asking us to dream of trophies and European football.

Our expectations could hardly be any lower after the last few seasons.
 

We have the best possible manager for the situation we are in. He has a proven track record of taking relegation threatened clubs up the table and being excellent in the transfer market. He's pretty much the best manager we could hope for in our current situation. 3 wins in 4 games proves that.
I do like the idea of Moyes having a full season after this one to slowly put the team back together into a workable state after a decade of mismanagement. Summer is going to see major squad overhaul and outgoings, having a pragmatic guy who’s done it before is a good choice to approach the blank slate. Then, once you’ve hopefully got a better foundation, look to appoint your ‘forward thinking trendy manager’.

Giving a Dyche squad to some continental football philosopher is doomed to fail. I’m happy to press the pause button for once and have a proper reset, instead of jumping from desperate appointment to desperate appointment.
