Everton Summer transfers 2021

[little elfin]

I believe there are Brands thread and Moshiri thread somewhere out there.
If you do not have transfer news, please say nothing at all

 

[bigstickytoffee]

Koeman bought Klassan
Walsh bought Vlasic
Kenwright bought Rooney
Moshiri bought Sigurdsson

And Barkley was better than them all... was agreed to be sold for £35m. His agent told him to reject terms because Chelsea would throw him £5m in additional signing on fees and buy him for £15m in January as he was injured.

We are a complete joke in the transfer market.

• Bolasie - £28m, loaned out a few times and then released
• Tosun - £28m, loaned out a few times and will be released
• Walcott - £20m, loaned out and then released
• Schneiderlin - £24m, rotted in reserves and then sold for £2m
• Bernard - Roma wanted him last summer for £15m. Some Chinese club wanted him for £9m in Jan....Rotted in reserves and then released
• Klassan - £24m, played as one of 5 number 10's in the side, sold for £12m after 6 months
• WIlliams - £12m, one of the worst players I have ever seen. Released.
• Cuco Martina - £35k a week for 3 years. Worst signing in our history, and he was a free! 28 and been available for 2 years and has probably had 0 offers. He cannot play football.
• Sigurdsson. £45m. Brought in to score free kicks - scored 0 in 3 years. brought in to provide set-piece assists... less than 3 in 3 years. Up until May, he was up their with Cuco the clown and Niasse for our worst ever signing.
• Moise Kean. Only club in world football to have PSG want one of our players and we can't get them to pay ANYTHING. £60m for an average right-back, and they offer us a loan fee and % of his salary. We will no doubt end up loaning him again.

We need to shift Kenny, Delph, Gomes, Sigurdsson & Tosun. I doubt we could negotiate £5m for the lot.

How can a multi-million pound business be run so so poorly?

That is a truly horrible horrible post to read...... I think I pretended most of it didn't happen and am now having flash backs. Quick where's the bottle.... ?

 

[BigDuncTributeBand]

Since he's been here the academy has gone under some rather large changes which is certainly a long-term strategy.

This is true and possibly he has more control and input in shaping this side of the operation. Transferwise it’s shambling.

 

[navidson]

Yeah, why I said he hasn't improved us competitively and it's coming up to crunch time.

Still, I'd much rather be a director of football, manager or owner coming in with this squad now, than the one Brands come into in 2018.

I'd agree with that - It's a crumb of comfort

 

[Nymzee]

Less than 2 weeks till season starts, less than 4 weeks till window shuts.

Where are all the super optimistic people at now?

 

[Villa_Fan]

Having known they were going to be selling Grealish, they were able to get ahead of the market and pick up the players they need.
You can pretty much guarantee that they wouldn't have got Buendia for £20m AFTER the Grealish deal...

If we had a £100m saleable asset then we may have been in a similar position

How much is Richy worth, is he not in that area of value? I suppose with the Spanish clubs broke it doesn't help tho

Gone to support Villa I reckon

 

[Frenk]

I'm sure he does a lot of things mate. But when he came I envisaged a situation whereby he controlled the football side of things down to the style of play throughout the club at all levels and bringing in managers that would implement it, and it just hasn't happened. Each academy and under 23 coach seem to play their own way and the managers seem to choose most of the players and tell Brands to go out and get them.

I don’t believe that I think he is heavily involved in bringing in the players. I just don’t think he is very good at his job.

 

[UTFT79]

It doesn’t really matter if you lay the blame at Moshiri or Brands’ door. The end result is the same. We are an absolute

Right here although I’m not sure this forum promotes it

 

[GrandOldTeam]

I don't know about that personally when you look at the situation we are in today.

Really?

You don't know if this squad is healthier than in 2018?

The big priority for him was the clear out (Remember all these? Schneiderlin, Garbutt, Stekelenburg ,Sandro Ramirez, Yannick Bolasie, Cenk Tosun, Theo Walcott, Oumar Niasse, Cuco Martina, Muhamed Besic, Shani Tarashaj etc).

In his first week he said he had to reduce the squad by more than a quarter.

At least in 2018 we hadn't ramped up the wage bill to a level that we have now which is preventing us from reinvesting into the team. There was still the ability to make changes but now we have hamstrung ourselves big time.

Doesn't work that way mate, FFP is rolling. It's not year by year.

We're still suffering from before Brands.

I see the same problems with those players from 2018 as I do with the squad we have now. Too many overpaid players we paid too much for and can't sell. They're slightly less useless than the guff we had before but not by much.

Nowhere near as many useless players we can't sell as we had in 2018. Niasse, Martina, Schneiderlin, Ramirez, Bolasie, Walcott etc etc.

 

[DanB90]

I imagine that if we sold someone for 100m we would be fairly active too.

We’d sign 10 attacking midfielders without an ounce of pace between them again.

 

[AndyC]

It was clearly any time I want to do a bunk I can go.

He had an annual close season exit clause in the contract.

Koeman bought Klassan
Walsh bought Vlasic
Kenwright bought Rooney
Moshiri bought Sigurdsson

And Barkley was better than them all... was agreed to be sold for £35m. His agent told him to reject terms because Chelsea would throw him £5m in additional signing on fees and buy him for £15m in January as he was injured.

• Sigurdsson. £45m. Brought in to score free kicks - scored 0 in 3 years. brought in to provide set-piece assists... less than 3 in 3 years. Up until May, he was up their with Cuco the clown and Niasse for our worst ever signing.

Have you actually seen hakimi play? Can't be many people out there who think he's average.

I didn't realise your transfers were that bad. Reading that list is shocking, I feel your pain.
