Rating all of Marcel Brands signings out of 10, a thread:
Like and RT pls šŸ˜
Richarlison (Ā£35 million)- 9/10
Easily one of our best players and also a fan favorite. Would be 10/10 but a bit off form right now
(ā€œRuined the transfer windowā€)
Lucas Digne (Ā£18 million)- 10/10
Again, one of our best players and one of the best left backs in the world. Who thought replacing Baines would be so easy šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø
Joao Virginia- 3/10
A signing with potential but since his arrival, has had a failed loan move to reading and not played one game for us. At least heā€™s good at Tiktok
Bernard (free)- 5/10
A risk that didnā€™t really pay off, never hitting the heights most thought heā€™d hit. Full of skill but ran in circles and didnā€™t suit the league + heā€™s one of our highest earners
Yerry Mina (Ā£27 million)- 7/10
A man impossible to hate, heā€™s become a solid defensive option. After a shaky first season full of injuries, weā€™ve started to see under Ancelotti what he really has to offer... and he can dance šŸ•ŗ
Andre Gomes (Ā£22 million)- 6/10
When he first signed on loan, he was absolutely class, but after that injury in the second season, he never came back the same.
Kurt zouma (loan)- 8/10
Solid defender that we unfortunately never signed back šŸ˜”
Jonas Lossl (free)- 1/10
We signed him on a free and I still feel robbed
Fabian Delph (Ā£8.5 million)- 3/10
Highlight of his Everton career was calling the players shit against Bournemouth and getting sent off v watford
Jean-Philippe Gbamin (Ā£25
Million)- N/A
How the fuck am I meant to rate this guy? Is he even real? Cool name though šŸšØšŸš‘
Moise Kean (Ā£25 million)- 5/10
A risk worth taking for a player that seemed to be one of footballs brightest talents. Didnā€™t settle and didnā€™t have the best attitude. A shame it didnā€™t work out but heā€™s bossing it for PSG now and weā€™ll probably make a few quid on him
Djibril Sidibe (loan)- 5/10
A few shocking games, a few decent games.... provided good competition for Coleman and could put in a decent cross, apart from that he was was nothing special
Alex Iwobi (Ā£28 million)- 6/10
After a terrible start to his Everton career, he is finally showing this season why we spent big to bring him in. Still relatively young but needs to work on his crossing and add more goals + assists to his game. Loves his baked beans as well
Jarrad Branthwaite (Ā£750,000)- 8/10
One for the future with a crazy amount of potential. Already shown in the first team his quality and is currently out on loan with Blackburn where heā€™s slotted in
Niels Nkounkou (free)- 8/10
Another one for the future who has already shown his class in the first team. Clearly down to brands and his brilliant work in finding such talent and for such a low price
Allan (Ā£21 million)- 8/10
World class midfielder in his prime. A warrior in our midfield whoā€™s not scared of putting in a tackle. Obviously down to Ancelottis pull but doesnā€™t take away from the fact Brands negotiated this deal down from around Ā£35 million to Ā£21 million
James Rodriguez (free)- 10/10
Where do I even start with James? A world class player whoā€™s won the lot. Heā€™s also brought along a massive following from Colombia, increasing the clubs reputation. Again, the Ancelotti pull but this is a brands masterclass signing him on a free
Abdoulaye Doucoure (Ā£20 million)- 9/10
What a signing doucoure has turned out to be. An absolute powerhouse in midfield, his ability to win the ball then drive forward is unmatched and is now a crucial part of our team. And his smile is šŸ˜
Ben Godfrey (Ā£20 million)- 8/10
Already a big part of our defensive setup, Godfrey has proven he can play anywhere across the backline + in a defensive midfield role. Pace for days and at 23, he has definitely got a big future at this club
Robin Olsen (loan)- 7/10
A signing a lot of people were skeptical about, however, when called upon heā€™s been decent. In my opinion, should be number one. Wouldnā€™t be surprised if we signed him permanently
Josh King- N/A
Canā€™t judge him yet as he hasnā€™t played but for me, I originally wasnā€™t too keen on signing him, however if the reports are true, he has apparently accepted lower wages + itā€™s only a short term deal so will be good backup should anyone get injured
Our biggest signing? This man. Whether Brands played a role in bringing him in or not, it is clear that Ancelotti has completely turned this club around and has shown why heā€™s truly regarded as one of the best in the game. My manager šŸ˜šŸ’™
Overall, I believe Marcel Brands has had a successful time at Everton and has done a very good job in fixing the mess Koeman and Walsh (šŸ¤¢) left him. This is a project that is going to take many years to complete and Iā€™m sure weā€™ll see even more improvement in the future
