Back when I thought we were certs to go down (our first season back up, 19/20), Douglas was one of the ones who I mentioned on here as one who would be interesting for Everton to sign if we were to go down. But we didn't and he kept on playing...
Who cares if they are in the stadium?
They came in and got the finances and interest payments under control.
They fired dyche and brought in a new manager even though that was not likely in the plan at that point.
Got a good stadium naming...
Id rather us sign the right players even if it takes longer than the wrong players and be no better off and stuck paying big wages till the contracts run out.
It’s a little hard to finish all your shopping by mid-July when you don’t have unlimited money. All the selling clubs are still trying to get top dollar for their players. Gotta wait until time pressures them into lowering their prices.
Free transfers are only worth it if they are good enough though. Considering KWP was set to move to beskitas, im not convinced we have missed out there. And was there many others better than him available?
Personally, I want the RW in by the US...
I think they fly out early next week so I would assume that’s unlikely.
I think the narrative for the US tour will quickly change to “we’re giving the youth players a chance to impress”.
Can someone please confirm what the difference is between being in the mix, and firmly being in the mix? Sounds like we could even be in contention too if we can intensify our pursuit soon.
