He seems to be very physically talented but struggles to make an impact. I wouldn’t expect a lot from him unless he puts it all together while he’s there.

Maitland-Niles is apparently going to Southampton on loan and Mustafi to Schalke, too. AMN needs playing time but that seems like. A lot of players to be giving up in case of injuries.

Joe Willock is good, think he'll be your best central midfielder. He can dribble, runs a lot and is creative. Not the best defensive player, but not from lack of effort.

He's ok, I think dribbling and running a lot are his main attributes, not really great at creating. Hopefully he improves, but right now he doesn't look like he'll be more than homegrown depth of he stays at arsenal.

Apparently Costa turned that down immediately because he wants a long term deal.

Everton offloaded Cenk Tosun and he's going back to Besiktas on loan. He's one of many players that I thought was okay but no one else seemed to like. Seemed to me like he put in the effort, but maybe not enough natural quality for where Everton wanted to go.

Nah, if it was us the board would have offered him a 6-year deal without telling Moyes, six months is far too intelligent for them.

Incidentally one small detail - Winston Reid (back from a 2-season loan to the MLS) on loan to Brentford is a done deal:

https://twitter.com/WestHam/status/1356195590384844802

This time I actually read the email right before bolding. Anyway the other thing in the email* was that we would pay the majority of his wages, with the suggestion this is a sweetener for a deal for one or two of their players, although they didn't say which ones and I've no idea if Brentford have anyone we'd be really interested in.

Everton replaced Tosun with Joshua King from Bournemouth. Probably an upward move.

You were only getting 15% of his wage while he was in the US so paying most of his wage isn't a sweetener, it's the only way he'll be able to go anywhere to play. He's on way more than any Championship club can afford.

This is an exciting move. King was great fun to watch last year. Him and Wilson worked well.

If Southampton get Minamino on loan and loan Shane Long out then I will be happy.

Apart from having Yan Valery as the only fit right back.

We loaned Yan Valery to Birmingham so I guess we're happy with no fit right backs and will just keep on playing Ward-Prowse there.

Guardian says Minamino has gone to Southampton on loan, which then allowed Southampton to move Shane Long along on loan to Bournemouth.

These are nice sentiments, but the guy is still technically only going out on loan. I suppose Schalke are definitely determined to offload him, but something about this doesn't sit well with me.

I hope he makes it at Liverpool.

vyelkin
Jan 2, 2011
Supposedly Schalke really wanted an obligation to buy on the loan because they're in financial trouble but Liverpool said no, so there's an option to buy but only if we think he's good enough. Given that context, it does seem like a weird statement.
