I'd say Douglas Luiz and Wesley are leaning on the well-behaved side but Everton surely looks a party guy to me. There are even rumors on European Clubs staying away from him because of this. Guess they have had a few party duds in Adriano, Neymar or Ronaldinho. But are they worse than Merson, Gazza or Bellamy? Still remember the story about Gazza after the cup final for Rangers with eggs and bacon following a break-in. What a dude. I'd be more worried about language, food, climate and general culture.

VillaHatesMe Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Wouldn’t mind going after Karlan Grant this summer. Sneaking suspicion we could have him from Huddersfield for around £10 million this summer instead of £25 million next summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a useful bargaining chip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GENTLEMAN Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 (edited) Like a timely reminder, believing that one signing will make or break a season is more of the time a nugget of fool’s gold. Edited July 28, 2020 by GENTLEMAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Afro Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I think we may have a go for Rico Henry. He is a Smith favourite and seems to be over his injury problems now. Also a local lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 John Percy saying that we want a right-back, will probably mean one of or maybe two of Bree, Elmohamady and Guilbert leaving. Bree and Elmohamady both in the last years of their contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I agree with your sentiments, as a whole. Tim Vickery (the Brazilian corespondent) does often explain (very well) why it is that Brazilian players sometimes go off the rails after making it big.

Wouldn’t be a starter, especially in the Premier League but think he’ll progress more than Davis will over time. If a sensible price, we could’ve looked at him as well.

Bree and Elmohamady both in the last years of their contract. Strangely enough I thought if we wanted any Fullback it would be one to replace Taylor (LB)? I think Guibert has great potential, and whilst Elmo isn't a World Beater he is experienced with good delivery, big games don't phase him either (Got 1 more year in him?). In this case i'd be hoping we get a player who can cover both, really wouldn't like to see Guibert go so early. Also seeing the West Ham are interested in Benerhama, don't him and Bowen play in the same positions? Who do we reckon is the better of the two?

useless Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 As reliable as Elmohamady as been, if he's your best right-back then I think that probably tells it's own story. If we want to improve will probably need better. Right-back we probably ideally need better first choice, left-back we probably need someone better to challenge Targett, I thought we might have gone in for Robinson from Wigan.
