Good player but another winger when there’s more in demand positions to be filled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Everton would be comming to Everton though. There are a lot of clubs interested right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was being touted for CL teams not long ago. I saw he’s a winger but pretty sure I’ve read elsewhere that he can play as a forward, like Richarlison. Both of them on either side of DCL or Kean could be formidable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good age and looks dangerous 3 hours ago, Finn balor said: He is vastly over valued by his club Also yes. Allegedly asking something like 40m US. Of course if he’s another Richarlison then utd will be buying him off us for 80 in no time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicagoblue Posted January 10, 2020 Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 Not a completely ludicrous price, but hard for me to imagine that we're looking to add more wide attacking players. Another bloke did a blog post recently about Ancelotti's initial signings when at a new club, almost exclusively focuses on the "spine" and almost never buys wide attackers. Will post the link if I can find it.

From day one I was worried about Silva spunking our budget on a winger from his former club, more so when he had just been managing Doucoure who'd have added some steel we were missing.

We had steel in Gana and he added class in Gomes. Nothing wrong with that. If you still think we are better off without Gana then I’m really not sure what you are watching. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gana had energy not steel, really don't see how a headless chicken would have helped if anything we'd have been even lower. dunlopp9987, MikeO and StevO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 Can he play on the right and left? Cause all we have right now is Bernard. Would be nice to have Everton on the right and Walcott be the rotation guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EFC-Paul Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 He's a modern day forward not a striker In a similar vein to Sterling Mane and co, he's been played there purely because our squad is shite and lacking options imo Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say what you like Mark but if we got a 25 goals a season striker, Richy would be playing his natural position on the Wing not in the middle.

It is a popular tactic to have a right footed player on the left who can cut inside to score. Everton Soares strikes me as an almost carbon copy of Richarlison aside from the fact he is 5ft 7 A cross between Richy and Bernard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think Richarlison is much better as a striker when he’s got a partner. If we’re after another striker, I’d like it to be a partner for him. I’d prefer we get a winger to replace Walcott.
