Everton Transfer Thread - Summer 2020

[The Penny Blue]

How ready would Gibson be next year if he took on a rotation role, we signed another CB, and played with a 3 at the back?

 

[The Penny Blue]

More links to Pellegrini from Roma, he’d be brilliant. He’s captain at Roma, it’s a big thing, so I doubt we’re getting him

Florenzini was captain too and was thrown to the wolves pretty quickly. Not saying I want Pellegrini but just food for thought

 

[Tel001]

We need that, the captaincy to be a massive honour. When was our last top top captain?

The times when siggy passed it to davies and then onto baines etc really winds me up

If Ancelotti is the manager we will be using a back four

Be surprised if we sign a Striker this next window personally.

As you say, considering we have more pressing needs and certainly not an unlimited kitty.

No doubt we will be linked with hundreds of players this window, whenever the window opens.

Unless the rumours that Ole loves Dom are true and he's lashing 50mill at him?

It was passed around like nobodies business under Silva. Absolute joke, like it doesn't mean anything.

Not necessarily true Ancelotti is a very adaptable manager

Take him

 

[TheBigIguana]

Not necessarily true Ancelotti is a very adaptable manager

He's been managing for over 20 years and he has never used anything but a back four for an extended period. He is flexible but within that has been a consistent platform in the form of a four man backline. I don't see it changing now unless something really crazy comes together with the CBs such as Juve having Barzagli, Bonucci and Chiellini at the same time.

 

[Blueclouds]

I'm not convinced clubs will be spending big in the next transfer window.

 

[Blue Parkender]

Will there even be a window? The way things are going.

Of course otherwise players can sue for restraint of trade etc

In light of the bigger picture I think they’ll get told to eff off if they try sue anyone this summer.

 

[BlueStevie35]

Take him

No

 

[Nyhus]

With all of the striker links it makes me wonder if perhaps we may be selling DCL or Richarlison. DCL in particular would likely offer significant FFP relief and I suppose there could be some thought of selling while value is high if they think his current level might represent his peak. The homegrown factor might be problematic (the club needs some...) but it also drives up his value.

Most likely answer is it is all rag rubbish, but.....

Didnt both recently sign contract extensions?
