Rate Everton's Transfer Window

8 for me.

9.5 if we had snagged a quality right back.

and 10 if we had also got an improved left back.

I am happy though, we're gonna be an exciting team to watch this season, and I really like the profile of footballer we have brought in and been in for.

Exactly..... Improvement on FB's needed for next summer!

Although still think we need to extend Myko contract as we don't want him leaving for nothing next year. Be a good squad player whilst Aznou grows, but would love to see us getting an improvement on nhim (unless Aznou does quickly become that).

Definitely need that RB.

They are the least important position on the pitch in terms of points accumulation. That's why when you pick a Sunday league team the worst players generally end up there and when fullbacks from a high level drop down they always want to play midfield or wing.

Nah…usually stuff fatsos in the middle to walk and snooze…

Seriosly , how much did you expect us to achieve in one window , mate ?

I think hope rather expect would be more to what business I envisaged us doing, too long in the tooth to see otherwise.

I think future windows will show an improvement as we up our game in recruitment terms and how we go about our business.

 

[W84 Dum Freeze]

This is a very good point

I expect it will improve next time round.

Can you also run them past me?

I don’t know Kev, what qualifies you? I’ve already got one nutter asking me why I think something I’m not sure I need another nutter! Are you a nutter Kev??

Rooney was absolutely finished. His legs had completely gone. Grealish is clearly still at his peak. Siggy we massively overpaid. The issue was most of our money was spent buying players who didn't complement each other. Siggy/Rooney were the Grealish equivalents and there is obviously absolutely no comparison. I watch Sandro in the U21 World Cup and knew he was terrible. Pickford was obviously good.

We hype up every transfer window

squad is massively improved, probably better than i expected with Grealish and Dibling, and then some nice surprises in the lieks of KDH, and going for the lieks of Aznou and Rohl over say Chilwell and Soucek

rb missing is of course a shame, for me the main issue is not getting to see JB and JOB together at centre half now. One of Tarkwoski or Keane will have to partner Branthwaite. I would have liked to have seen them form a partnership at some point this year. I do trust Tarkwoski's form to return but if it doesn't then thats a worry as OBrien cant come in unless he trusts Patterson or even garner to play rb

Club gave you a graphic now @GrandOldTeam

Those top 6 finishes and cup finals/semi finals did get boring after a while I agree.

Totally agree. It all got boring and tiring under him. Good point

Only if we do it on this basis....

I was well off. so, based on what I predicted I'll give it an 8 at the moment.

Til all windows close I may go up.

We'll know more as the season goes on, but I've gone for 8/10.

There was an awful lot of work which needed to be done to fill in the gaps of those leaving at the end of last season, and we've ended the window with depth across our midfield and forward areas.

What's (still) missing is a 'proper' right back. Coleman won't be playing many minutes this season and Nathan Patterson hasn't been fancied by any manager since we signed him. 2x injuries (Myko and Branthwaite) resulted in a completely makeshift back 4 and that potential remains.

Let's see how we get on when injuries/suspensions/fatigue starts hitting.

Thread 'Summer rebuild'

Ok summer rebuild is obviously needed, the signs are both money and financial restraints due to regs are going to be not a restricting factor.

So poll at the top and in general what do people think the approach should be...

I went for 8/10 as well, again because of the ongoing RB failure, but even without knowing where we’ll end up this is easily one of the best summer windows we’ve had in a long time. Not least because of the scale of change that was needed.
