I think main position to strengthen is
RB
CB
RW
ST
In that order
Don't understand how people can say get rid of mina loads said get rod of keane and he is playing the best football in a everton shirt mina deserves time he has been hit with injury's let the lad settle also we have got gbmanin to come back he can cover CB he will be like a new signing. Us getting a RW does not mean james will be moved carlo will rotate the formation in different games some games 4-3-3
Some 4-4-2 And 3-5-2
The team as it stands is really positive and you can see the players are happy and enjoying the football pickford will pick himself up out this rut just needs a kick up the a** and some competition.

{Ed025's Note - can i put my name down for that first kick callum..

Romero and Millik being linked this morning, going to be an interesting few days before the window shuts, hopefully a goalkeeper is top of Carlo's list, Team coming along nicely with our new manager.

So when we look at our first team, there's 3 positions that need fixing

Goalkeeper
Right back
Right wing

I like James on the right but there will be times we need something different there

Seamus is solid at right back but obviously can't go forward much anymore and he doesn't offer much in the way of a final ball

Pickford is done now let's be honest

Now I didn't name centre back because we are good there although some will disagree, probably get one on loan

My question is, which of those 3 positions are most vital to be fixed now? Maybe get a right back on loan because we need a good fast energetic right back, Kenny is not fast or good and Coleman can not attack

Aside from James we have no options on the right, Iwobi can play there but not against good teams, Richarlison can also play there but is wasted

I assume most people will say right back can wait until the summer or maybe January, obviously we have to get rid of some players first but I do think our starting 11 is good, just lack quality depth in some areas and there's a massive flaw with tiny arms at the back.

{Ed025's Note - if i could pick my priorities would be...keeper, CB, striker. in that order mate..

I'm with you Ed.

I'm confused when everyone is crying out for a RB Coleman is playing well and Kenny will do as a back up it seems now Davies isn't playing Coleman seems to be the new scapegoat me I will be happy if we just bring a GK in and move out 4-6 players.

25 Sep 2020 09:31:11
I think Kenny isn't at the level. If we had bad luck and Coleman picks up a knock for a few weeks or more, we would be in big trouble with Kenny. i'd like to see a RB come in and one good enough to become the main man with Coleman as fantastic cover. (it's this scenario that maybe behind Coleman blisteringly bright performances so far, he's playing for his life) it's definitely not pressure from JJK. The kids not good enough.

25 Sep 2020 09:39:36
Agree Brank, in fact maybe Davies could do a job at right back?

{Ed025's Note - tom is not quick enough or strong enough to play right back woburn, gets shoved off the ball far too easily for my liking and would give away far too many free kicks as well, hes the king of the mistimed tackle too mate..

25 Sep 2020 09:39:56
Tbh Branks, I would settle for that too mate.

25 Sep 2020 09:54:44
I agree Ed he is ''not strong enough' physically or mentally mate .

{Ed025's Note - i dont think anyone would dispute that 247 mate..

Think Nkounkou could do a job covering left back, and left wing for the team.
Richy can play left wing or striker.
Have got good cover in Bernard and Iwobi for centre midfield/ right wing.
Have Allan and Dacoure in midfield.
Think Kenny can do a job as cover for Coleman.
Have four centre backs (when fit) . Though I would have liked us to go for a loan to buy for Rudiger.
So the only position we are desperate for cover is. keeper, where we have no choice😂.

24 Sep 2020 20:03:33
Bring in Rudiger and Todibo on loans
Use Mina as part of the deal for Cillesen
Yes it’s a dream but has some positives.

24 Sep 2020 21:13:59
Ooooh yessss.

25 Sep 2020 05:30:43
Mad that people want Cillessen when he’s just the Dutch Pickford

Mina is worth a lot more than being used in a deal to bring in someone worth £20m at best and Mina likely wouldn’t want to go to Valencia

If we want to progress as a team, we need good players and signing a man who hasn’t played well since the 2014 World Cup is not the way to go.

25 Sep 2020 07:47:49
Sorry but if we sell Mina we upset our new starlet a few weeks after he’s arrived, they’re very good friends and play for the same country, this is blatantly not the way to go especially cause it’s not an emergency. Bringing in another cb is but I think we can all agree a goalkeeper is very much an emergency. If we were just to get another gk in before the window shuts I’d be delighted. Holgate and Branthwaite will be back before you know it.

Ed, please brighten all our day and tell us that Everton are looking at signing a goalkeeper . Have never been more excited about a start to the season and am just terrified Pickford will cost us a European place.

{Ed002's Note - Everton are trying to get players moved on now.}
