January Transfer Thread 2020

[n01efc]

There's thousands upon thousands of footballers out there.

If Brands can't find one "we want" for "the right price", given that's quite literally his job, then he should be shown the door.

It ain’t fifa mate, just because we want someone doesn’t mean they want to come or if their agent demands a massive few etc.

Give it a rest ffs summer is our spending spree

Yeah lets miss out on Europe and top 6 to spend big in the summer and aim for... you guessed it Europe and top 6.

Baffling our club and fans.

No central defender, central midfielder or right winger... I get it’s hard to do business in January, but being only 4 points off 5th despite how poor we’ve been... a player or two could have pushed us on

I think if all this is true, his head will be turned, it will be an another Gueye or Lukaku and he will be out the next window. Great work from the board getting Ancelotti in , some will disagree but in January we needed at least one big statement signing, but like city did with Robinho, if we had i don’t think the supposed Barca bid would have come in, the board should have got Ancelotti his chosen player in, he would have known straight off who he would want here.

Yeah if he does go we have to get maximum profit from him. Shame because we should be building a team round are best players.

His druids cant see the woods from the trees.

4 points off 5th/6th with Spurs and Utd inconsistent and missing Kane and Rashford.

Criminal lack of ambitoon if we dont address our gaping weakness in CM and out wide.

Only Everton could be in midtable and give Sam Alladyce £50 million to spend

Then hire Carlo Ancelotti, be 4 points off 5th and sign no one.

T.y.p.i.c.a.l E.v.e.r.t.o.n

Maybe Ancelotti, being smarter than Samuel Grande, said to give him the rest of the season to work out what he wants to buy.

He addressed quite a bit of it in the summer. It's probably a little late to change FFP regulations.

We need to SELL not buy.

 

[Fansince1988]

So if we had signed a good player this window Barcelona wouldn’t have made the bid for Richarlison?

that’s interesting logic. So us signing a good player would put Barce off and they would think “holy hell, Everton have spent/wasted a load of money on James Rodriguez. They’ll be on our level soon. No point going for Richarlison. Him coming here would practically be a sideways step.”

let’s be honest. They couldn’t care less who we sign/don’t sign. They’ll bid for Richarlison if they want. It’s probably just to show interest so they can get him in the summer.

If he goes it’ll be sad. But we’ll move on. We always do.Gueye and Lukaku played some of their best football for us in their final 6 months. Playing for a move: I’ve absolutely no problem with that.

Well they could have seen it as us building, but whatever imo Ancelotti should have had a statement signing in this window, too manager then a top plater it would show we really mean business.

we need to sell and other teams to sell to us vicious circle

 

[toffeejack]

All this ffp stuff is probably us lying to stop teams ripping us off in the summer. We were willing to pay £70m or whatever for Zaha, as well as what £30m on Zouma?!

I personally wouldn't worry about it if it is actually an issue. What would they do? Take 3 years investigating, in which time we've qualified for back to back CL campaigns, then they'll hit us with a crappy fine which would have no impact?

I did say Ancellotti was here for a pay day. Not interested in bringing anyone in. Get Brands out the door as well. Our rivals win the league by 100 points and we are happy just to float around in mid table.
