Transfer Rumour Aaron Wan-Bissaka

[Swartzy]

Both, fans soon on backs of players regardless of age! Dibling got it off fans it in the little time he had. Anyway be surprised if this lad signs until his World Cup is over!

So possibly another 2-3 months of this thread than

It seems that you both missed my point about whether we would be getting the 2024/25 AWB or last seasons player...

The 2024/25 version was West Hams best player and one of the leagues best full backs. Thats offensively and defensively, a beast.

Again, last season he dropped right off and rumours were that he fell out with Nuno and there may be something else.

Forget Moyes and forget the players name, for £10mil I'd gladly take the player who delivered outstanding performances in 2024/25.

He's not good enough to progress us zat, he's a paper over the cracks type signing who'll be 'expendable' and on a 'players we need to sell list' within a year

I can't even begin to formulate a view on any of this until I know who will (or at least who won't!) be managing any new signings we manage to attract.

It depends on what you mean and want by progress. If you want champions league progress then I agree with you.

But if you just want to qualify for the Europa League and to match the points totals of Sunderland, Brentford and Bournemouth, then he absolutely could help facilitate that level of progress just by removing Michael Keane from the starting line up.

Can't we just buy a right back we'll want to keep rather than a stop gap though? Surely it can't be beyond us that

you’d think mate

 

[Toffeepot]

Not an inspiring signing but I reckon we'd have finished higher with AWB at RB and JOB at CB this season. Whatever he is or isn't, he's an upgrade. 10mil seems fair too

I’d be removing Tarkowski before Keane.

Nah, I recognise that Tarkowski is on the wane, but you can put ANY centre half alongside Keane and they will soon be conceding an average of at least two goals per game. Keane has had this affect throughout his entire 10 year long Everton career.

Smart signing at that price. His assists aren't amazing but just having a right back capable of getting up to to create space will be a huge difference. Also how many times do we see JOB get skinned on the right. This fella will stop us leaking as many.

A sensible reply

No, no, no....

 

[Ged G]

He’s faster, can whip in a better ball, can actually overlap but he’s not the answer imo. Surely the is better options

Who is the answer? Who are the better options? Curious to hear...

 

[Ged G]

Is this guy the exciting option that we all want....no.

Is he better than our current options at RB... yes.

File under "meh", and see what happens.

He is defintely better than what we had last season... deffo.

Another sensible post... Agree

 

[Ged G]

Wan-Bissaka... We have not signed him, it is just a rumour at the moment. But if we do, he will deffo be an up-grade on those we have in the squad now. And "cheap", which is a factor.
Personally, I will NOT be writing him off before he has even signed and kicked a ball for us. Seems that, as usual sadly, many others on here already have.
