So the squad size is currently 28 with the possibility of 3 or 4 leaving (Besic, Pennington, Bolasie and possibly Sandro) .
McCarthy is long term injured.

Ideally between 2 and 4 coming in, if we can get them.
This should leave a squad of between 25 and 27 for the start of the season.
We have to commend Brands and Silva for getting rid of so many players, some players I never thought we'd shift.

January and next summer should see a completely different everton team that we have now.

Ideally for me, 4 out and 4 in.

Good times ahead.

I agree with your post exept on one point, I think we are a very long way from good times sadly.

I don't think we will see much more in now, centre back i believe and that will be that, can't see besic going or bolasie leaving, but can see the youngsters out on loan, McCarthy needs to be sold while we can get something for him, injuries are starting to mount up, if we had the chance which I don't think we will, RLC would be great on loan, but I cannot see Chelsea letting him go out after his world cup.

I'll be happy with a CB but really want a no8 and another no6 to go with it but wish he'd give Besic a go in the 6.

I'd even give Besic a go in the CB position as he can play there just to see if we can make it work with him.

We're not far away from what I think can get us to 7th and maybe challenge a faltering top 6 side. However, anything in the top 10 will do for this season and some solid foundations for next year.

Bluejohnus we consistently challenged for top 7 season after season but alas not good enough for some fans. Now years later along you come and state finishing top 7 will be achievement.

For Marco to build his own team will take at least 3 Windows so 2 that he wants now is good. Any more will be a bonus. 2 or 3 each window will probably be the norm. Look at last summer 6 in and only Pickford a real hit while Sigurdson and Keane have the jury still out if you read here regularly. Too many in at once causes disruption, we did it Palace QPR and Sunderland have done the same over the past few seasons, watch how the Hammers fare now as they have done the same this summer. Unless you have bottomless pockets like Chelsea and City had in the past ìt just doesn't work so we need some of that patience everyone said they had 6 weeks ago.

😂😂are you one of those with unrealistic expectations DFS? I think me and quite a few others understand we have a new manager and a bit of work to do this season to make us truly competitive.

I'm happy to see better football this year and challenge for positions in the top half. #keepingitreal.
