Summer transfer window 2023

[Kurt.]

Tim Howard was crap …. NEA.

Anyhow, would love us to steal Johnson from forest

 

[Paul Rideout]

I dont consider Hamez a success. Was a luxury player and was great seeing him in an Everton shirt but didnt play enough. Fitness issues/injury prone same as Deulofeu.

Ok so what players from lower teams do you consider a success?

 

[andy4efc]

Have i just read someone suggest Lukaku wasn't a success......

 

[micknick]

Yeah it is, I think that's our weakest position when all fit, but think creating chances/having a reliably fit striker keeps us up and is more of a priority.

Haha you never liked him from day one. Even when he was doing pretty well last year.

I still think hes ok and relatively young so could develop but appreciate he hasnt had a great season overall.

Nó ones said that.

Pickford, Coleman, Gana, McCarthy, jags, baines, fellaini, stones, Richarlison to name a few

I think you need fullbacks to contribute something offensively and I don't see that in his game. Hinders the left winger a bit.

Not sure he starts every week for any other Prem team tbh.

Every game I just hope he doesn't make a mistake and puts in a 6/10 game.

Anfield

And the three players that came from bigger clubs that I consider a success Lukaku, Barry and pienaar, they were all on loan before becoming permanent so we knew what we were getting and how they would gel with the side.

Honestly don't think he wants to live down there.

Great place to live on a premier league wage tbf

London isn't appealing to everyone. He's a proper northern homeboy.

Would rather our shortlist was championship players under 24, won player of the season for their club / team of the year for the league / captained their team.
at least it gives an account of how they are viewed over the course of a season rather than glimpses of games on sky.
I’m done with signing players at 27-8 on their last big contract from other clubs.
Our best signings in the last 15 years have come from relegated or championship sides. Each time it was the stand out young player… Cahill, Lescott, jags, baines, Pickford.

Howard was a very good GK for Everton, dont get this opinion at all.

Was kept a year or two too long, that's all

You're right unfortunately - I want to like the lad but he's really not good enough at anything to be a PL starter. Being weak offensively as a full back is maybe forgivable if you are a rock defensively because that can unlock the winger to stay upfield a bit and be an option on the counter, but on the defensive side he still requires constant support from McNeil. He's by no means a terrible footballer but out of the whole world of left backs I really can't see what it was that caught our eye.
