Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

I hope so too.

He's an asset going forward and if he can just add a tackle to his game and positional awareness he'll be a welcome addition.

This will get little response, if it was dave down the pub saying we are signing Longstaff and KWP there’d be tears

The first part is a bit misleading. Lampard had no choice because of the transfer embargo. The Jan window he went for experience.

Reckon he's drunk.

Or getting it in early in case he's class and Dave needs to backtrack again.

They are but that defensive stability doesn't tend to come from the full backs these days.

Defensive stability comes from the shield a midfield can create for a defence.
Hence why our defence has been terrible since Gareth Barry & James McCarthy

Are you suggesting our current centre midfielders...

Needs must.

We're an utter joke and dont look like getting too many in after near relegation.

we need another orange-sashed away kit to make him feel loved.

maybe get a goodison brass band (as in trumpets and trombones... not escorts and hookers)

Gueye rumoured to be off to Galatasaray. That will upset some folk around here who think he could still do a job for us.

Longer term yes. First half of last season, no.

Seems a bit pointless. Digne is unarguably the better, far better, creator in the final third. That’s really all that matters.

True, first half last season, FSW wouldn’t let the fullbacks go beyond the half way line - not really surprising then Digne didn’t create as much. The team barely looked like it would create or score a goal on the downside.

Lampard came in and he seems to favour a lot of the attacking play coming from the fullbacks/wingbacks. Can guarantee, had Digne been playing for a Lampard, he’d have been a very useful creative, productive, player in the final third.

You and a few others are in for a shock when you see Patterson for a few games.

Our half of the pitch is like a foreign country to him.

It is, he is Scotish

Hahahaha that last bullet point

We weren't good enough for Depay under the heady days of his mate Ronald Koemans management, let alone the Everton of 2022.
