Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[AmericanBlue]

The money spent on McNeil just seems so bizarre given we seem to be scrambling around in the bargain bin

Really, so you are saying we spent too much based on 2 games?

Serious question mate, does the fact we only paid 4million up front lessen the impact of POTENTIALLY having to find another 16million for him in the next few years?

Let's hope the rest was based on goal and assist add-ons because we'll never have to pay that.

 

[davek]

We have already spent well in excess of the 60million we got for Richarlison, if Gordon goes, we would easily breach the 100m barrier.

He will be in Turkey on loan this time next year

Interested in Elmas off Napoli apparently. Same position as Onana so probably not accurate. City sniffed around him last season.

Can you not give the lad a chance at least? It’s hardly fair to say that we’ve wasted the £15m or whatever on McNeil despite him still being young and having played in the PL consistently but then loads of people, myself included, are buzzing after spending £30m on Onana after 15 minutes for us and only like 10 starts last year.

Really bad form in my opinion to be talking about a player like this already. I don’t care who a player is, what their experience is and who they’ve played for before. Once they get in the door here I’ll give them at least a reasonable chance to make a good impression or until something absolutely catastrophic happens.

McNeil has been no worse than any of our other forwards so far this season, even as well when he’s the only one that hasn’t played with a striker on the pitch yet and generally speaking what we paid for him was nothing in the grand scheme of things. Even if we add more quality and he just ends up being a squad player or option off the bench this year £15m is still nothing.

Im not going to triple check my figures, so there will be errors.

Richarlison 60m 70k a week BANKED

Tarks 80k a week, 4m to Burnley.
McNeil 20m, 50k a week
Coady 80k a week, 12m fee
Vingare 25k a week, 12m fee
Onana 80k a week, 33m fee

5m Agent fees
53m on fees, 24m on fees next summer
12m in wages

Ignoring the fee we REALLY didnt pay to Burnley, not factoring in signing on fees

A grand total of 94million English pounds.

It’s not McNeil as much as his position. He’s a traditional left sided midfielder when we have a squad in urgent need of goal scorers.

As I’ve just said to other poster - we very clearly should have prioritised players that can score goals before a left midfielder.

The point is that's why that deal was done because they accepted a small fee up front, I didn't comment on the player. Personally I would have got Dennis a month ago instead but what do I know.

No.

Complete opposite to Onana mate

Could not agree with this any more. Scary how fans turn on players after two games. Just pure stupidity on every level.

I like the potential the boy McNeil has, his left foot is sweet as a nut.

And we’ll finally Burnley in 2031 for him

Up the Payment Avoiding Ev

Doubt we have the money to get Elmas in. If we're genuinely interested in that kind of player I wouldn't be surprised to see us linked with Aouar.
