Everton Transfer Rumours

29 Aug 2024 21:52:15
Mandala landed, possibly Nuamah too . Can't see from hear.

29 Aug 2024 22:19:07
Fingers crossed they're both on it. We are crying out for someone with serious pace down the flanks.

30 Aug 2024 15:18:02
Nuamah. Fulham are after him.

29 Aug 2024 12:23:30
Romano saying that there is no buy option for Mangala.

Does that mean that we will have to turn Harrison or Lindstrom into a permanent before the window closes Eds?

{Ed002's Note - No.}

29 Aug 2024 15:17:58
I'll keep saying it chaps

4 loans are allowed

2 max domestically.

like i have been saying!

29 Aug 2024 15:44:32
So how do loans work again?

29 Aug 2024 15:45:24
There has been that many different takes on what it is, i have lost track of what is accurate wblue2 hahah, sorry mate.

I thought someone said it was 4 for the season but no more than 2 at the same time.

So if we get Mangala on loan, we still have space for another player on loan. That certainly helps us.

29 Aug 2024 17:34:16
Given the state of our finances and the dodgy dealings with 777, I doubt anyone at Everton understands loans.

30 Aug 2024 19:16:33
As wblue said, 2 at a time, 4 in a season is domestic only. FIFA/ uefa rule is currently down to 7 in and 7 out, and reducing to 6 in the next year or 2.
Forest had 5 loans with no obligations in matchday squad Vs us last season.

29 Aug 2024 12:08:13
Maupay to Lyon. Rumoured obligation to buy.

I am starting to like this John Textor more and more.

29 Aug 2024 12:38:07
He’s gone to Marseille mate.

29 Aug 2024 13:20:29
textor ain't that stupid, haha.

29 Aug 2024 14:04:14
You mean Kevin Thelwell.

29 Aug 2024 15:44:57
Either way, good riddance.

29 Aug 2024 15:46:50
Ahh sorry GB. I read an article that said Lyon. I did think it was strange as all the talk in recent weeks has been for Marseille.

Thought Textor was sorting us out haha.

28 Aug 2024 15:29:03
Being linked with another Lyon player, Earnest Nuamah striker £25 million being quoted same as DCL I think hmmmm.

28 Aug 2024 16:33:45
What is it with the Lyon thing at the moment? Is it to do with textor?

Reported fees seem ABIT excessive too ?.

28 Aug 2024 17:57:03
Hope that this is not going to be Lyon getting rid of unwanted players to us at excessive prices. We don't want to be a dumping ground for his other teams.

28 Aug 2024 18:01:11
Looks like that could be the case mate.

28 Aug 2024 18:32:31
Hopefully we are not doing anything untoward and getting our collar felt further down the line. Would seem abit bizarre that a club that have and still ffp buy 3 players from a club that our potential new owner owns at fees that appear inflated. ???.

28 Aug 2024 18:33:58
They are close to falling foul of the French FFP and have to rake in £100 million apparently.

28 Aug 2024 18:51:39
Out of the frying pan into the fire in regards to Textor then!

28 Aug 2024 20:17:03
He is off to Fulham.

29 Aug 2024 09:33:35
Think both players mentioned would improve us.

28 Aug 2024 14:12:01
Really hitting up on the transfer front being reported we want Earnest Nuamah a striker from Lyon for £25 million hmmmm.

28 Aug 2024 09:17:49
Mangala medical today now Junior Dina Ebimbe looks like a goer reports say he can play anywhere on the pitch, hope he knows where the goal is lol.

28 Aug 2024 09:30:45
Still think the big move will be DCL will he go or stay, I hope he goes and we freshen up our forward line also would be happy for Beto to go as well, must be some gems around like the new recruits we have just signed.

28 Aug 2024 09:38:35
He is an improvement on what we have GB and looks to be the long term replacement for Idrissa which shows good planning.

Price seems a bit steep for me though. Forest only paid 10m for him and let him go to Lyon for £15ish. If we are paying double that at the end of the loan, seems steep.

If we can get Montiel in to nail down the rb spot and then add a ball playing midfielder who can net a few, we may have a decent go at surviving then.

28 Aug 2024 13:49:56
We will survive without any new additions.

28 Aug 2024 15:45:18
Yep I reckon that as well sa but more recruits will be very welcome especially they are upgrades on Keane, Holgate, DCL and Beto mate.

{Ed025's Note - i wish i was as optimistic GB, nothing i have seen yet fills me with confidence that it will be anything but a long hard slog this season mate, losing DCL, Jarrad and Onana could still be on the table and if it is we will certainly be a lot weaker than we were last season, i live in hope but with the players we have and a manager who is clueless offensively it certainly wont be easy..

28 Aug 2024 16:50:47
Cmon Ed even Sean saying Holgate and Maupay look like they are off, that’s a good reason to do some somersaults matey.

{Ed025's Note - if it does happen GB i will be going to church a bit more mate.. :)

28 Aug 2024 18:34:32
Love it mate.

27 Aug 2024 18:55:56
Mandala having a medical tomorrow says Sky.

27 Aug 2024 22:03:58
Nelson?

27 Aug 2024 22:49:22
You got there 1st bluenose. Nelson ha ha ha.

27 Aug 2024 22:52:57
Mangala GB.

27 Aug 2024 23:12:47
Winnie.

28 Aug 2024 08:06:56
If we gave space for one more loan, why are we not looking at strikers?

28 Aug 2024 08:58:22
Possibly Fofana of Chelsea BR along with Mangala. If so glad see the club actually using the full loans, bizarre we haven't in seasons gone by.

28 Aug 2024 14:25:30
Rather Richy if Spurs Mocker.

28 Aug 2024 16:07:26
100% BR. You never know pal. Doubtful but can't rule it out??.

27 Aug 2024 18:01:40
Everton making enquiries re a loan deal for Sofyan Amrabat, wow that's some player, would be ideal for us but probably too expensive, high wages.

{Ed025's Note - i have to say im not a big fan at all Uran, had a good world cup of course but has done squat at United mate, very slow and no better than Gueye for me..

27 Aug 2024 18:17:01
ed25 yes he could have more pace but he’s very forceful, very strong on the ball and covers extremely well, he has the ability to set up the front three also with his passing ability, for me would be a massive improvement, would play in front of back three and give us more protection, but it probably will not happen anyway ED.

{Ed025's Note - its all about opinions Uran i suppose, he might be decent with better players around him of course but in our team at the moment he is very unlikely to get that imo mate..

27 Aug 2024 22:41:18
No thanks too slow. Would get found out in the Prem. Have enough joggers already.

27 Aug 2024 11:54:17
Hi Ed’s has there been a change in the loan allowance, I’ve always believed it’s only two at any one time, with a maximum of four throughout the season, the obligation to buy loans don’t count within that system?
Thank you for you assistance in this as always.

{Ed002's Note - Your understanding is correct.}

27 Aug 2024 15:11:17
So therefore we cannot sign any more players on loan during this window?

{Ed002's Note - One from the PL and others from elsewhere.}

27 Aug 2024 17:36:41
Hi Tranmere, so Harrison is from the EFL and Lindstom from Europe, neither with an obligation to buy as I understand it.
So as for further straight loans one them would need to leave or sign permanently in the remaining days of this window or the January window before anyone else could come in on loan.
However a loan with an obligation to buy or as with Beto a straight signing with a deferred payment could be options.
We have had to pay £30m for Beto this year so funds are tight.
Or we sell players to generate funds, all before Friday
UTFT.

27 Aug 2024 15:39:50
Cheers Ed,

How come Burnley had 4 at same time last year as pointed out a few weeks ago by a fellow poster.

1 X domestic and 3 international. Not of which were obligation to buys.

& Why are we constantly linked with loans if as you say we can't get anyone else in.

{Ed002's Note - Because three were not from the Premier League.}

27 Aug 2024 18:13:59
Ah so you can actually have 4 in at a time? Not the only 2 at any given time that's stated and seems to be confusing everyone.

Thanks Ed for clarifying.

28 Aug 2024 09:05:39
it was me the other week, again the rules are just quite hard to read

4 loans, 2 max from domestic (england)

hence why we're looking at Lindstrom/ Mangala abroad, Harrison/ Fofana home.

28 Aug 2024 19:12:12
Were the 4 at Burnley all there at the same time? Or did they swap in January?

26 Aug 2024 10:22:24
Montiel being linked agiain, a right back from Sevilla.

26 Aug 2024 13:51:19
Would be a massive upgrade GB.

If we could get a LB as well, that would make me feel a lot better about our situation.

26 Aug 2024 14:33:54
Few more needed I reckon.

26 Aug 2024 14:43:20
Fofana from Chelsea as well supposedly in talks, we can only hope 2 or 3 come in if DCL goes i will not shed any tears.

26 Aug 2024 15:41:48
Would take him. I think Chermitti could do well this sson.

26 Aug 2024 16:24:05
£9 million being quoted for Montiel.

26 Aug 2024 17:59:41
We need someone who can play through the middle so we’re not hooofing it every time. I also think Chermiti will be a plus when back but then SD will ‘ease’ him back in ?.

26 Aug 2024 20:18:37
We have players who can play through the middle. There sitting on the bench.

25 Aug 2024 08:27:16
DCL to Chelsea? If it's Chelsea it's got to be 50mil plus a couple players.

25 Aug 2024 10:35:34
And Maupay wants to go back to France, does that mean we can get a new forward.

25 Aug 2024 11:33:29
Haha we could sign pele in his prime and it won’t solve our problems! People on here seem to think a new striker will turn us around.
We have the worst scouting team in the history of the premier league too so no faith at all that the person brought in would be any good, just look at our record. Only decent striker we have ever signed was lukaku and let’s be honest, it didn’t need a scout to realise how good he was at the time!

25 Aug 2024 13:24:18
It would certainly help our cause Richris.

25 Aug 2024 13:54:20
Think 2024 Pele would improve us!

25 Aug 2024 14:14:46
I agree with GB.

Dom is done. Even when he is applying himself correctly, he doesn't scream striker to me, certainly not a goal scorer. A decent striker wouldn't turn us around but it would sure improve our chances of winning football matches.

We know how stubborn Dyche is, we saw this with his refusal to play JB at the start of last season. When it got so bad and the heat turned up from the fans, head had no choice, a bit like Dixon yesterday.

If we take McNeil and Harrison off the flanks and replace them with Ndiaye and Jesper, we have a completely different dynamic to the side. Chuck Jimmy in his favoured position of CAM, which we have only tried him in once. That was against Villa in the cup and he bagged a decent goal running beyond our forwards and their back line. That would give us 3 footballers behind the striker that can retain possession, pick passes, drive at opposition defences and not panic in key areas. Atm we have McNeil, Douc and Harrison. I am not sure that they can do any of those things listed between them.

Tim, Idrissa, JB and Tarks/ O'Brien sat behind them would give us a solid foundation to build from. Sure we would still be carrying the fullback spots but we are where we are. All of the clubs in the bottom half have weak spots in their sides.


Pickford

Dixon Tarks JB Myko

Idrissa Tim

Jesper Garner Ndiaye

New Striker


There are at least 3 worse teams than that in this league. This team needs a fresh approach and the bollocks to tear up the script but the questions is whether Dyche has the self reflection to realise this.

There are 5/ 6 sides that have had the same results as we have in the opening two fixtures and these are the same sides you would expect us to be battling it out with come the end of the season.

The way things are atm are beyond bleak and it is hard to see any positives atm. That being said, remember Villa were below us when Emery took over and look at their change in trajectory since he came in. I am not naïve enough to think that we will get somebody of his class in or even a new manager at all but tweaks to this first 11 will certainly see some more positive outcomes on the pitch, that is for sure.

If I were Thelwell, I would be doing all I can to shift Dom on and going all out for a striker. Nketiah on loan. Dia, Morris, Adebayo, Ings, Vinicius, Fofana. Anyone to freshen this team up would be better than a striker that clearly doesn't want to fight for this team anymore.

We might not have any money to make big signings but there are still deals out there to be had.

25 Aug 2024 14:52:57
Yep your right there BlueNose, with DCL and a few others like Keane, Holgate Maupay and even Beto who are not Premiership players we need them out pronto and with what ever money we have get in replacements, I thought Dixon, Tim, Ndiaye and Jesper all played well on Sat we need a few more of similar talent mate, and we still have Jake chewing at the bit to get on mate.

25 Aug 2024 17:06:53
I can buy into that Blue Nose. I don’t think Moshiri cares anymore so nothing will happen with Dyche until we get knee owners. Whether Dyche will make the changes is the question.

25 Aug 2024 17:47:26
Ndiaye is a natural No10, would be wasted on the wing. Also doesn’t matter who leads the line if they’re on their own. Need to play two strikers and stop this negative formation.

25 Aug 2024 18:41:46
Woburn you aren't wrong, he probably is better in the 10 but the same could be said about Jasper. They both have the ability to play anywhere across the modern day forward positions but we simply don't have the personnel or depth in the squad. I would rather have Garner in the CAM, picking out runners ahead of him.

We would be able to play about with there positions if we had other decent players to fill other areas but we don't.

We need to be able to find a setup that gets all of our better players on the pitch at the same time.

I can't think of many teams that play with 2 strikers now. We finally have 2 players that can play on the counter attack and put the opposition to the sword about in Jesper and Ndiaye. With Tim and Idrissa doing the defensive work, i would feel more comfortable having a footballer with decent IQ in the middle to link the defence to attack - Jimmy G is perfect for that.

All that being said, this is a pointless conversation as we know Dyche will never think this way.

25 Aug 2024 22:20:35
I never thought I'd say this but I'd get Moyes back for 2 seasons.
Sell Dom and try and get Richy back with the money and someone like Gnonto.
We can't rely on Dyches counter attack football with no pace and a striker who isn't committed.
Moyes was always likely to suffer a defeat like the Brighton game but he would always get a reaction the game after.

25 Aug 2024 22:22:06
I can see dele getting a 1yr contract and playing in that 10 role. From what I'm reading he's training hard and looks impressive. Wether he'll remain injury free and get back anywhere near the player he was mind. Saying that if he plays and puts the ball in the back of the net he's improved us straight away.

26 Aug 2024 20:21:24
Well if he looks impressive then someone else will probably sign him.
