Everton Rumours 27570

25 Jan 2015 17:35:46
I think we've all now pretty much given up on any significant incomings this transfer window. RM said as much weeks ago and this is the one area where he's always been provd true to his word.
Even any replacement for Eto'o looks likely to be a "who's he?" at best or a "wtf!" at worst.
BK will no doubt persevere with RM, so there won't be new ideas from new management leading to a radical refreshing of the squad going forward - it'll be same old same old from the RM coaching & recruitment staff.
It's surely a question of how much RM changes the squad this summer. If he says there won't be many big changes, then I fear for next season when our aging, injury-prone, short-of- self-belief players once again find themselves struggling - whichever division they're in under RM.

Don't rule out loan move for ex Wigan player frozen out @ villa nzogbia lol & in the summer another world beater cleverley currently on loan @ villa from Man U who Martinez had on loan when he managed Wigan.
Can u see the pattern he's got Everton playing like Wigan & wants all his ex players to follow him to Goodison so that he can take us into the championship next season & play his ex employers minimum of twice a season.
Wish the fella had stayed @ Wigan if he thought they were that good.

Yep. This is a rapidly ageing squad that we seem to be adding to with ageing players. I pointed this out last season and Swan in particular had a right go at me. There are at least 4 or 5 who in my opinion have probably reached their sell by date and another similar figure rapidly approaching it. That is one reason I did not understand the selling of Anicebe and purchase of Kone for a similar figure. Kone has probably 1 more season. Anichebe has 6. Added to which, signing Alcaraz when Distin is at the end and Jags probably 1 more season. I likened it to Sunderland and Villa who both had squad re-vamps. Swan called me all sorts for pointing this out. I also suggested Osman, Gibson and Pienaar needed replacements. so we sign Barry and McCarthy. Ok McCarthy is a good long term signing. but Barry was surely at best a 2 season signing. Add all these up and we need to replace 8 players. Not forgetting Howard, Hibbert and probably someone else I have forgotton. We should onned young players.dare I say it.like Moyes did when he took over.

What do you mean take us into the championship next season. Currently we are in the relegation fight well and truly. If those below us carry on with their current form and we carry on with ours, what are the odds!!!
