Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[davids]

Of the, what, 15 players out of contract, I suspect we'll see a few of them staying as squad players.

Too many incoming and outgoing in one window disrupts the chemistry of things too much. It'll be a gradual rebuild, but it starts this summer.

It's just a case of how many,We need some experience,but surely Pickford,Tarks and Gana is enough. And Mykolenko has been playing first team football since 2017.

What do you want him to say?

We are going to rebuild and I am confident we will be playing in Europe in 2027?

I want him to say, we want to challenging the teams at the top next season, not move up the table if we can

 

[davids]

Lets face it if the loanees all go back and the out of contracts get let go then we would have barely the spine of a side left for the first year at BMD,
I could see Moist keeping Gana, DCL, Alcaraz and Lindstrom. I really hope he does not offer contracts to Harrison, Keane and Doucoure. Any others wouldn't rile me either way.

Just Gana and Alcaraz for me. DCL definitely not.

Branthwaite has over 100 first team appearances, Garner has over 150.

I hate every part of that quote. Not many players incoming, move up the table if we can. Standard Everton.

Well he won’t be here long if he doesn’t get us up the table. Somebody needs to tell him
This is a different Everton from 20yrs ago

what chemistry is this.

Most with loan clubs but they still both have 70+ EFC 1st team appearances - they are not kids!

Andy Hunter confirmed he is staying as a player.

Looks like the myth of Patterson can be put to bed now.

Yeah okay mate hope Seamus is taking a large paycut, if not we have learnt nothing PSR wise, same with Young and these two are more just back up defenders. Like to see a new fast attacking fullback brought in, same on the left hand side.

 

[carolinablue232]

So I guess the idea is to move Patterson out and get a new right back with Young and Coleman as his cover.

Figured we'd bring a starter in, O'Brien is the default "cover", and we'd replace Keane with another CB. Young felt like an emergency option for a few different positions. May have misjudged that if both Young and Seamus are retained.

 

[mahermi1]

Maybe we could get Tom Davies back, he's not old and knows the club so it keeps the team dynamic unchanged.

You've just gave the reason why we won't be resigning Tom Davies matey...he's not old..

 

[Connor]

Chemistry/harmony/squad dynamics. Like a jenga tower, you change too many pieces and everything crumbles

Too much churn doesn’t help

We're going to need a lot more than 3 or 4. We need at least that now, if absolutely nobody leaves. If it's only 3 or 4 we'll be bottom half again all next season. We can't have another season with one LB, no RBs, no RWs, no competent forwards and one first string goalkeeper. I don't think there is one position in the squad where we have two decent players per position. Maybe LW? We have 3 decent CBs for 2 positions, so almost there, I suppose.

Keane, Doucoure, Broja, Harrison and Patterson out for starters. Kudus and Soucek from Wham, plus two or three left-field additions in defence, midfield and attack in.

Red wine has a way of making me think even more positive than normal

 

[windymiller]

The above players need to be squad players, not regular starters, with the exception of gueye. Two top quality full backs, right winger & center mid and this team is transformed. Hopefully we keep alcaraz too and I see no reason why our aim shouldn't be top 8.

This team isn't transformed without a decent striker. I find it amazing that people think two new fullbacks and a winger will make all the difference when the players they will be servicing are DCL and (an admittedly improved) Beto. We also need at least one new goalkeeper as well are releasing Begovic and Virginia. So even with your proposal and my two, obvious, additions we're up to 6 new players and that won't be enough.

Moyes loves Harrison. Wants him to stay and will use the funds from Ndiaye sale to buy him.

Is it, though?
