Quite a good number of their starting side have experienced at least one relegation which doesn't really bode well! That I can think of: Pickford, Keane, Tarkowski, think Young went down with Watford years ago, Gueye, Doucoure, McNeil, Danjuma, perhaps Harrison/Gnonto if they sign. Probably forgetting someone too because they're that shit.

If they don't sign a good number 9 then at the minimum it's another dog fight. I'd tip them for less than 30 goals with this side. That they've stuck with Calvert Lewin again baffles me because I can see him scoring less than 10 Premier League goals for the rest of his career, I reckon the damage is done on his body.

On a serious note, I think DCL is undergoing the same sort of run that Sturridge had.
Rushed back to help the cause when not 100% fit, aggravating existing injuries and trying to compensate causing more injuries. At least the lad hasn’t got that arl prick Hodgson “testing his resolve” by making him do sprints to run off a hamstring injury in training ready for a meaningless friendly

Harrison doesn’t really solve their urgent need for a goal scorer but he’s a decent player I think. For them anyway.

Imagine putting yourself through years of misery and coming back for more time after time.

Anyone else think DCL wasn't even on the bench because they are going to sell him?

A Premier League team would be absolutely nuts to pay real money for him at this stage. Done nothing for two years and his body won't be the same ever again. Take away that purple patch behind closed doors and what's he done for them really?

He's definitely a talented player but his injury record is shocking - very different types of injuries too, which suggests it's not a problem that's easy to fix.

I think Romano has tweeted that Chelsea are preparing a bid for him.

Close to signing Jack Harrison from Leeds.

Proper Dyche signing that … about as exciting as a veruca

He’d done his medical but Villa have come in with a late bid and he’s going there instead!

Villa are put off because he’s currently injured

Unsurprisingly, it's a loan with no option to buy

Everton take an injured player on loan for a season that they won't be able to buy? All we need now is for him to be out for the season and Everton paying his wages.

First Bolasie, then Funes Mori, and now Holgate. They are losing their golden generation.

Does anyone reckon we could start some rumour about who they will sign, like just loans and free agents? Hazard, Alexis Sanchez, Lingard, Phil Jones... feel like there's the opportunity to get a bite or three.

Sergio Ramos is a free agent

Does he think Harrison will make them more solid? (even though the defense and keeper are utter crap) cause he's not bringing much else

Harrison was one of the few players who turned up and were decent for Leeds last season, especially when shit had hit the fan in the spring. Unfortunately, he will play for Everton under Dyche, so not much flair and creativity is to be expected.

The young man who sadly lost his life yesterday on the BMD build has been named as Michael Jones from Kirkby. A lifelong Everton fan too.

RIP Michael. 💙
