Everton Summer 2024 Transfer Thread

The Bobbles pal is talking cryptically about central midfield.

That balloon knows nothing.

If money is so tight right now why did we use the last of it on a back-up centre half is my question.

Unless a certain someone is sold, it was our least pressing position other than the goalie.

Not arsed. You can get by with subpar defenders. We did it for ages with the likes of Ashley Williams and Cuco Martina.

We CANNOT go into this season with no good strikers or a goalscoring winger.

Apparently they want £25mil as per lourons.

Because Dyche is reliant on a solid defence and with both our centre backs currently out its shown Keane & Holgate are going to leak like a sieve

Really?

Central midfielder who actually goes foward and commits players, or is this not in dyches remit.

We literally did that last season and got 48pts. If Branthwaite or Tarkowski had got injured, we would've been down by February.

No you can’t. Also “for ages” = about 3 months.

We needed a centre back as we have no capable ones fit currently.

Just why haven’t we been after him on a free? Bizarre.

I think it’s quite clear Branthwaite goes in the final weeks of the window.

And also sold Godfrey obvious really. We need sales, the pair above would be a great start, if only we had someone who could sell Sand to the Arabs or Ice to the Eskimo's we might succeed.

Both centre halves are back in training. Let's not pretend they're out for the season and we needed to wax all our money on a replacement.
