Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Evo2901]

Our turnaround time is a week for 1 player by the recruitment team.

16 days left.

In fairness they managed to get KDH done in double quick time but it is strange that no matter who’s running the show our transfers always seem to take an age.

If gray was 40m I’d have a crack

Would be a first team starter for the next 10 years

Another year of recruitment at Everton where there is a lot of right but also a lot of wrong and abject failures. To not have recruited a RB or RW at this stage is disgraceful really, no matter how difficult the market is. It just takes one injury to completely change the dynamic of the squad.

Pull a finger out Everton

Surely we want more fingers, 3 is normally the right amount I’d say!

 

[Who's_up_for_cumpkins?]

Tbf I was got every bit of recruitment spot on it'd make career mode on FIFA boring as you wouldn't need to buy any players

Is that because of the squad or because of Moyes

It’s because historically we don’t do transfers until the last 30 minutes of the window.

The loan market doesn’t seem to have opened yet

Haha
Always makes me laugh

That was said about Moyes although nothing was the same apart from Goodison Park when he came back very odd thing to say

 

[Ragnar]

The club have to go all out for a right back now

RB I can kind of understand, JO’B fits in the role of we’re doing that 4-2-3-1 to 5-4-1 in ball out of ball tactic we did last year.

RW though is a horrific fail. Absolutely horrendous not to have that covered.

RB isn't understandable to me at all. Coleman is basically a coach at this stage and we all know Patterson isn't good enough. That leaves us with JOB who is also having to fit in at CB if needed.

While it is terrible, it appears we have tried for 7 mainly high profile players for this position and either they will not come (not our fault) or, their club puts to high a value on them - again not our fault. If ANY of these criteria had been dropped in our favour then NO ONE would be moaning as we would have a quality RW.
As painful as it is, the club have tried to get high-bar right wingers which we all want but for reasons beyond their control - it aint happening (yet - it will).

I see that point but also I can't understand it - we have a CB playing RB, Patterson is injury prone/won't cut, Coleman is not going to feature. The backup is Garner, but that will also play another player out of position and weaken the midfield

RW is indeed a fail, so far. 2 and a bit more weeks before we see the final result, but this current outcome was as predictable as the 78th minute sub
