January Transfer Thread 2017

[TheHumbleEgg]

Most fumeless transfer day.....EVER.

Think I'm falling into a '...have we got enough players now' line of self-questioning/worry now...

We need a 'Guess the Phantom Bid' thread now...

...which will probs be revealed by Jim, via Mosh-text, tomorra...

Oxford. Scored the other day.

Shame, I was hoping he would turn out like some kind of wonderkid akin to Davies. Oh well. We have Davies.

I agree with you but did you mostly post this to show off about your boss holiday?

Nope. Otherwise I would have mentioned where we are going after the two days in Miami.

[Durham Toffee]

Sneaky bid for Messi...?

 

[PhilM]

Reminiscent of Michael Branch......much promise, delivered little. Some make it, some don't.

At least he hasn't been caught with a sizeable stash of Class A drugs in their cistern.

Holy crap Mcaleny is already 24 years old, that's like 178 in dog years

Hope it didn't come across accusatory as I really did just want to know what people wanted.

I think (and obviously a huge factor will be league placing) we will see the big big money being spent this summer. I also have a funny feeling if we do alright the rest of the season Lukaku will give us a substantial amount of time in the summer window to prove our ambitions.

No worries, I didn't take it that way.

I'm not that impatient really, I'm just worried about losing Lukaku and having to rebuild again. I think that's why I've been hoping we'd get more players in but I know it's hard in January, that's why the summer was so frustrating.

Out of contract in summer anyway. Probably sign on a free end of season.

Ah didn't know that fair enough.

Another block of deadwood cast afloat, fare thee well Connor.

 

[Oxford]

Lundstram and Ledson.

Lundstram came in last season and was class. Ran the midfield in many games but stupidly got himself sent off so he missed a game at Wembley. He struggled initially this season but is getting back to his best, largely due to the performances of Ledson next to him who is a bit of a terrier.

Both will end up above League 1, hopefully with us.

We also had Kenny last season who had a shaky first game against Blackburn but then bossed it against Millwall and was consistent from then on.

Having gone through a fair amount of youth players from various Prem teams, it would seem the Everton ones are best equipped to make the leap to men's football. There is an enormous difference between Prem academy football and the lower leagues.

 

[Debaser]

Do we have enough players on our books to fill our subs bench? lol

I'm all for the clear-out of deadwood, but this is ridiculous!

 

[kithnou]

Great window for me.

Bring on the Summer when we spend 200m.

 

[Connor]

Bryan, I am not. My forum Friends will attest to this.

 

[Jags..class]

So who was on our sub bench the last two games?
