LiamOwl Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 There’s a comment from Röhl in the article on the other thread along the lines of “the chairman is open to good arguments to make urgent decisions on players”. Sounds to me like he has made it clear to the chairman how fast we need to move in January Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, 36 points. We have 5 games between now and the end of Jan, we need to avoid needing 12 wins from 17 games. So any critical business we do needs to be early. I can understand why Rohl has put DC under pressure to get things done early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto_Man Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Expect a minimum of 4 of the 5 we have on loan to be going back (Vasquez, Fletcher, Buckley and Hendrick). Suspect there'll be a queue for the likes of Gregory if we make him available. The trickier ones will be some of the shit thong song brought in and Moore re-signed.

TheExile Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 I’m not sure if we can send them all back but we may be able to simply de register them which would be pretty expensive to double up with new signings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl71 Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Watford, who we are due to play on 27th Jan are at home to Conference leading Chesterfield in the third round. So barring a fairly big upset, even if we lose again to Cardiff, who were fairly shit, we probably won’t have a league game that weekend.

If playing in Europe and in a less physical, slower league he’s got decent technique it may suit him.

Tylluan Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Standard Liege are currently under a transfer embargo for not paying bills. They're owned by 777 so that bodes well for Everton fans. https://www.reuters.com/sports/soccer/standard-liege-confident-transfer-ban-will-be-short-lived-2023-12-21/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylluan Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I'm hearing we may ask Hull if we can take James Furlong on loan. 21 year old left back they signed from Brighton at beginning of this season. Hull are willing to let him go out on loan but want him to get as much game time as possible. Negotiations may happen today but Motherwell also want him as do a couple of L1 clubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkowl Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 There is at least a bit of a breather after today in the League fixtures.

KrolMong Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 I think he sees left back as a critical position and purely because I think he wants an orthodox defensive left back with Johnson playing as an attacking full back.

Geordie colleague told me a couple of weeks ago that they were recalling him from Standard to farm him out to us for the the rest of the season, the daft bastards gave him a 6 year contract & need to put him in the shop window. DR is keen & wants it to happen. Standard kicked off & Bakinson is the sweetener! Stumbling block is Standard are currently under a transfer embargo for non payment of wages (their owners are 777 Group so this really doesn't bode well for Everton) On the Lee Gregory front ...... A close relative of Lee's goes home & away with us (think you know who I mean) & he tells us all the reported interest from Wrexham, Derby & Burton is true but the only firm bid has come from Cambridge, managed by his old Millwall boss Neil Harris! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
