Everton Summer transfers 2021

Shibbywiggles · February 21, 2021

Ideally we need a young Allan, ALTHOUGH (and I never thought I’d be saying this two months ago) maybe that could be Tom Davies, and of course we need a RB with Digne quality a RW with Richarlison quality and ideally a world class keeper!

Id take Pulisic all day but im pretty sure he's got a future at Chelsea. Tuchel gave him plenty of game time at Dortmund didn't he ?

He did but he's given him basically none at Chelsea so I'm not sure the Dortmund stuff is relevant anymore.

I don't love feeding off the scraps of other clubs but Pulisic and Hudson-Odoi are both young, improving and exactly what we don't have on our flanks.

Thats very much the LAST thing we need.

You don't like midfielders that can tackle?

Digne, Richarlison, Kean, Keane, Bernie, Hamez, DCL, Mina, Holgate, Godfrey, Branflakes, Niels would all be sold for more than they were bought for.

Including Bernard lollol

Yes, as long as they can play football.

I don't think we need a defensive crab(Gana), I think we need a door unlocker(KDB).

Nah it's just funny, we could literally get back a couple of air pumps and a bag of pistachios and it would be more than what we bought him for because he cost 0.

So you agree?

We need people that can tackle, we love to talk about how we sit deep because of the CBs and that is a little true, but the other factor is anytime a team plays a ball into midfield past the first line of the press the guy receiving it can turn and make a play because the only person who regularly wins the ball back is Allan (and recently Davies). The midfield also struggles to close off the gaps when the first guy doesn't win the ball. There have been more than a few times where both our CMs have ended up 10 yards from the sideline next to each other while the ball goes straight down the middle. We do need to improve in that area.

Also I still think it is hilarious that people thought when Gana and Gomes played together that Gomes was the better passer because every now and again he hit a Hollywood ball.

I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm saying it is a pointless example. Like saying Bernard is taller than actual dwarves so he isn't short.

we need the clone of Idrissa Gueye this summer.

No we don’t , we need a very good footballer in midfield, who also has aggression.

weve got midfielders who can tackle and get about the pitch

Aarons no.1 target for me.

Need extra CM, and another striker for me, oh and a GK.

I'm assuming people are saying this because of Doucoure and well, not really. Abdoulaye can run but he does not tackle nearly enough. We have Allan and that is about it.

Well Doucoure doesn’t offer much from a technical point of view, his passing is quite poor. Maybe he doesn’t dive into tackles, but he gets about the opposition and puts them under pressure. Constantly diving into challenges, will say you’re out of position

Gmblammo, Allan, Davies all 6s.

Gomes, Doucs 8s

Iceland, Hamez 10s

We need a 6 who can pick a pass, not somebody who runs about and cant pass a football.
