 Academy Roundup

Yesterday Everton's U18's shined in a stunning comeback, with a 27th minute Quintyne own goal being turned over very quickly with 2 goals in 2 minutes on the stroke of half time, the first coming from Tom Cannon, whilst the second came from Rafael Garcia, towards the later stages of the game, 15 year old Emilio Lawrence wrapped the game up to give Everton the 3-1 win against Wolves.

Today, Everton U23's faced a side struggling in the league, Southampton, Nathan Broadhead got the game off to a quick start after just two minutes, 18 minutes later 17 year old Charlie Whitaker doubled the lead for the toffees. With just two minutes left of the first half, Stan Mills made it 3 for Everton, with 22 minutes to play, Sean McAllister, who has shined in recent weeks, gave Everton their 4th, Tom Cannon, a late substitute who had played away to Wolves yesterday, had also made the journey down to Southampton, and put Everton 5 up in the 80th minute.

Everton’s summer previewed. What do the club need to do in order for Everton to progress up the table?

-
The summer of 2020 was a substantial one for the club, the club managed to shift a large chunk of the deadwood such as Sandro Ramirez and Morgan Schnierderlin, whilst club legend Leighton Baines retired. Several players such as Cuco Martina and Oumar Niasse departed the club after their contract expired. This then allowed the club to challenge for their main targets. 2 central midfielders, a goalkeeper, a defender and a playmaker. The club confirmed the arrival of the young, french starlet Niels Nkounkou on a free transfer from Marseille, a player who could be key in the future of the club. They displayed an interest in Max Aarons and Zeki Celik, but those deal were not concrete. Deals for Gabriel and Højberg did not happen, despite pre-Covid a deal for Gabriel to come to the blues was agreed. This resulted in Everton signing Brazilian midfielder Allan from Napoli for a reported £25m fee. The Brazilian was signed in a flurry of deals, with Colombia and Real Madrid star James Rodriguez ...

What would Denzel Dumfries bring to Everton?

-
Dumfries is a 25 year old right back, who currently plays his football for PSV Eindhoven in the Dutch league, has had interest from director of football Marcel Brands. Everton are still searching for a new manager, yet the Dutchman is continually linked. Names such as Nuno Espirito Santo and Eddie Howe have been thrown around, as have Christophe Galtier, however, whoever the new manager is needs to add a right back. Should Galtier arrive from Lille, the Zeki Celik links would once again arise as they did in January of 2020 and 2021. Dumfries is a raw, attacking fullback, similar to Seamus Coleman. He would add a different option to Everton’s defence and would be a substantial upgrade on the Irishman. Dumfries’ versatility is also needed to be taken into consideration. He has played as a right back, left back, central defender and even as a winger for PSV, this is the type of player that we need and should be trying to sign.

Ancelotti on Aston Villa draw

-
I thought we came out the blocks really slowly. Struggled to get a foot on the ball, but partly of that is Carlo’s tactics from not wanting to have the same start we had a Goodison Park. The first 30 half an hour was slow and we were struggling to string two passes together.  Tyrone Mings should have scored from close range. After the half hour mark Everton began to get their foot on the ball and keep possession much better. A few half chances along the way.  But coming out for the second half we were excellent and it was obvious that Carlo had got into them at half time. We were commiting more bodies forward and creating more chances. With 25 minutes to go Jack Grealish came on for Aston Villa as the home side looked for the opener.  Both sides huffed and puffed with any real quality until the chance of the night arrived to Dominic Calvert-Lewin forcing Emi Martinez into a good save at his near post after a peach of a ball in from Lucas Digne.  Aston Villa should ha...
