January transfer thread

Nathan Broadhead has returned to Everton after being recalled from his loan spell with Wigan Athletic.

As expected. Player wants a permanent move and his preference is Sunderland.

Not clear if the club reciprocate that at the moment. League One interest and offers on the table.

Interesting couple of days/hours.

James Copley and everyone at the echo know the square root of f all. Absolute joke of a paper now

 

Confirmed...

 

The only surprising thing about the Matete loan is that we didn’t keep him until Monday and play him tomorrow

 

Matete loan to Plymouth confirmed.

 

Simms on bench again tonight

their fans to be fair to them are fuming that they’ve ****ed his season up

 

We must have someone lined up and a deal sorted to replace Matete.

 

Interesting move. I like him as a player and we spent canny Dosh on him.

Guess it's managers discretion. Should come back a better player.

 

you would hope so

 

I certainly hope so mate, we can't afford any more injuries/suspension/loss of form in any department as things stand.

 

it’s a cracking move I think. Could be the difference between needing to sign a new midfielder in the summer if he comes back ready to start.

 

Come on United, get Lampard sacked and let's get Simms back

 

It's a strange one. We must have incoming players lined up otherwise it's madness to let people leave with our injury record

 

I'm a big fan of Matete so I'll hold my opinion on him going for another week or 2, but if we dont get a replacement in asap I'll be very disappointed.

Have to assume we have a player coming in because it would be madness to leave us short at this stage of the season

 

Surely we stand less of a chance if they change manager - any incoming manager would want to assess the whole squad etc
Our best chance is that they sign a striker, Lampard stays and Simms gets pushed out of the squad

 

Good move for us that

His biggest issue isn’t talent, it’s knowing how to play football (positioning/knowing when to press etc) especially to play in a deeper midfield 2

Very similar situation to Embo, needs games especially games with something on them

 

I see they've brought Broadhead back today aswell. The club is in turmoil and literally clutching at every straw it can to change their season round. Relegation could ruin them with the amount of money they've wasted on players and the new Stadium that they've paid millions and millions for, based from the hope of being a top 8 team by the time they move into it

 

Half a billion quid since the new owners came in according to the coverage on ITV
