Fullbacks won't lift us out of the bottom half of the table when your seasawing backs and forwards due to a fundamental lack of goals.

scoring goals will tho

Will help aswell as getting a cf who can score, a more attacking rb both sides would help create soace for the wingers instead of getting doubled up on becuase we have defensive fb who wont overlap or put quality crosses into the box

….it got to a point where he refused a new deal but I’m talking about when those injuries first started and his stock was still very high.

Fair, I’ve heard the stories but no idea if true. Hindsight if so…

 

[W84 Dum Freeze]

Should be looking at Forbs at club Brugge, that is what you call pace and finishing (vs. Barcelona tonight).

Definitely what we need.

And nobody ever heard of him til tonight.

Brugge produced some decent prospects though to be fair

They caught him at the right time of his progression, Lamine Yamal will be first to the hatrick tho.

He's already played in PL before, loaned to Wolves

Laporte on the bench for Athletic tonight, didn’t even get a sniff.

Would love him.

Not strictly true, he is half English, half Portuguese, was very highly rated a few years back at City, think he also had a season at Wolves. I'm glad its finally come good for him, he was talked about as a top prospect at one point.

Only signed for them 2 months ago from Arabland.

The surgery might sort him out, fingers crossed

What concerns me is the medical team seem (I don't know) to not be on top of our muscular injuries for years now

I’m no scientist but if you change you manager, coaches and strength/conditioning team every 18 months and get the players to keep changing their conditioning each time then player’s bodies are going to break down more regularly than having stability.
I’m happy to be told otherwise by experts but it’s just a hunch. Doesn’t explain everything but maybe a reason.

 

[bullybeef]

Do we think Everton will sign a striker on 1st Jan or 31st Jan?

The January market is always difficult… it is if you try and scrimp and save.

World class and sitting on the bench, I think the deal involved funny Saudi/city money.

That's a fair point. Might be something in that alright
