Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[Blue1972]

We've had over 100 worst midfielders than Doucoure.


Maybe but you need different attributes in a midfield he is the physicality a box to box player we saw he could do it at the start of the season and at Watford he played as a 10 some seasons. I think he's fine he was never going to be an all round complete player at his price and he has at times been really good for us with his energy especially last season. Our biggest issues in midfield are finding a DM who can shield the defence and an attacking midfielder who can create. To get a balance in midfield without that, you have a imbalance of mobility and inability to control possession with your Gomes/Davies/Allan et al...

We will have to agree to disagree , but imagine doucoure as a 10 that’s like playing richarlison in goal. There’s a reason we finish bottom half and this season it was worse, because we have poor players and doucoure is one of them. Wouldn’t lose any sleep if he was sold tomorrow

Gueye - strength was hectoring the opposition in the middle of the park and getting the ball back. He's not the engine room that dots the ball around the pitch....

Expecting Frank to give Davies a look now - healthy again with a full pre-season ahead of him. Think he likes having scousers in the team.

Gomes, Doucoure and Allan can all be jibbed off.

Davies in, and Doucoure out? Never, ever.

If you think Gueye had more technique on the ball than Osman then we see football in different ways. Which was abundantly clear even before this discussion.

Wow that’s mental, yes gana has attributes that where much better than osman. But how can anyone watch them 2 players probably over 100 times for Everton and come to the conclusion Gana was better technically. The Ming boggles

Jesus not another on the the Tom Davies campaign. I tell what he likes better than having scousers in his team, having good footballers

Ok. Think a lot would disagree with you

I’d trust any of these players to handle the ball in midfield far better than Gueye would

Osman Pienaar (obviously but I’ll assume you’re not considering them)

Barry
Besic
DvB
Allan

I’d trust the touch and passing of any of them over Gueye’s.

Besic hahahaha

Ancelotti had us at least competitive in the right half of the table,this season the waiter sucked the soul out of the squad,a few of them deserve a pass and a chance to see what a decent manager can get out of them

I think some people forget davies is the jonjoe kenny of Midfielders

Maybe a few but not many. Most of these have failed Under more than one manager
