Deadwood

[toffeejack]

GK - Stekelenberg & Robles id consider 'deadwood' but out of the 2 id get rid of Stek.

DEF - Martina, Jagielka & Williams. Leaves us Holgate, Keane & Funes Mori (Need to sign a CB)

MID - Besic & Klaassen (Neither would be missed if sold, however i want Klaassen to be given a go). Case can be made for McCarthy, Schneiderlin & Gueye also as our midfield seems to be truly shocking and i wouldn't moan if we flogged them all

WIDE - Lennon id say is the deadwood. Leaves us with Bolasie, Vlasic & Lookman with Walcott potentially coming in.

ST - Niasse & Sandro.

Pretty much spot on, although I'd sell robles now seeing as he's out of contact in the summer, instead of stek who we can keep as this choice until he retires. Need a good backup keeper here.

Jags is offload this window and bring in a top centre back, or do that summer at the latest and then do the exact same with Williams next Jan, bringing in another top centre back.

I'd keep Klaassen and Sandro, niasse's stock is as high as it ever will be here so need to cash in this Jan, but we also need to splash the cash on a top striker in the summer.

Of course mirallas is to be added to your list, but he's not here atm.

So this window I'd dispense of:
Robles and lennon (because of their contacts)
Jagielka and Niasse.
Besic (on loan to raise his profile to get more in the summer)
Klaassen & Sandro (on loan to a prem team).

And then in the summer :
Martina (released)
McCarthy, Besic, Mirallas.

That's 8 perms out in the next two windows and then maybe scneiderlin if we can get a proper DM replacement in (would love fellaini on a free). And for Klaassen and Sandro to be given another season, they both have long contracts so no need to panic sell.

You guys are moaning about martina every week, yet want us to sell baines that would mean us buying two new left backs this window or next as well as the 5 or 6 players we also need to add. He's not deadwood, he's just not the player he was.

I’d like to add Theo Walcott to my ‘Deadwood’ list.

Didn't we have this thread last season? And the season before? And the season before?


The club will never do a clear out because it's 'not the Everton way', these players are 'family' ...

Niasse is dead good

 

[marcus]

Deadwood...Sounds like a cheap horror movie...

 

[paulf]

For us to kick on and challenge top four...Keep Holgate, Coleman,Vlasic,Lookman,Tosun, and err bin the rest All the board barr Mosh....and including Walsh the slime ball, Fat Sam, well all of them..maybe keep Little Sam...And sign players who have kin composure on the ball...this being Everton we will sign Walcott (totally not what we need)...and err Martina's brother who is also kin right footed...

Based on only Walcott coming in, if we sign a left back then try and move on Martina I guess;

Steklenburg/Robles
Jagielka
Garbutt
Besic
Lennon
Klassen
Grant
Tarashaj
Niasse
