Am I the only one who instinctively wondered when her arms starting moving up whether she was going to take her top off? Guess it's ingrained into us fellas. :/

They need a striker and Jesus will score 15-20 goals for them. Jesus, Saka and Raphina should they sign him with Odegaard or Smith-Rowe playing behind them looks decent.
This is the kind of signing I don’t understand why we don’t just pay the money and get him. Apparently Boro want 15 million for the guy, that is quite literally pennies for a Champions League PL club now. Why don’t we just pay it if the manager wants him?
We have previous for doing this with Championship players too. Sessengnon and Grealish spring to mind.
We could have got Sessengnon for much cheaper than the eventual 30 million we had to pay for him and we could have got Grealish for a very decent price too if we had just stopped dithering.
So what if nothing happens and the June 30th deadline passes? Surely then it time to melt?Everton’s transfer window and the importance of June 30
The end of the financial year next Thursday is a key date in Everton's summer - they need to sell before they can buy for FFP reasonstheathletic.com
If you believe Gold and the Athletic and the rumours about Richarlison it could be we will pay a big chunk of a transfer fee to Everton on or before June 30. Could be we get a reduced price to help them out with FFP.
His career high in the league is 14 and he averages less than 10. He has reached 20 in all competitions twice but one of those involved buckets of goals in 9-0 (4 goals) and 6-0 (2) victories in domestic cups. He was pretty much playing all domestic cups from round 3 on. For a team that creates changes for fun.We can downplay this as much as we want, but he's still going to score 20 goals for them.
Bissouma really is a game changer for us and I don't think enough people realise. But they will soon enough.
It would be incredible if we could somehow pull off Richarlison + Raphina and not completely unrealistic given Berg is gone and Lucas is going into his last year.

True they are weak there , but they have no forwards apart from Nketiah who is very meh. Forwards is where they are desperate

I charity bet you that Jesus doesn't get 20bepl goals for them next season.
Told my Dad we’re interested in Richarlison. He looked physically in pain
I understand your point, I don't agree and I don't believe that players are intelligent enough to sacrifice their momentum for the squad momentum. most of them have arrived to top level thanks to selfishness and individualism and are not keen to step aside.In some cases, yes. Imo though this is more when there is too much change in the form of players who - almost - automically slots into the first 11.
Our top players - Kane, Son, Hugo, and arguably 1 or 2 more - will want to start competing at the top end of the table and have a real shot at a cup. They'll know that squad depth absolutely needs to be adressed, also broader than your suggestion. As will everyone in our squad.
The only player we've signed so far who automatically slots into our starting line-up is Perisic, and you could make the argument that he'll be the only one, no matter what happens. Bissouma will need to take a spot from Skipp, PEH, Bentacur. Whichever one or even two attacking will need to duke it out with Kulu for starts plus rotation starts. Even if we sign a top class CB then Dier and Davies has earned that it's their spot to lose.
I'm completely convinced that the whole squad understands this. Those who didn't have already been put to one side. If Davies, just to single out the most vulnerable starter from last season, wants glory, he'll have to be good enough to see off competition for his spot from top level signings, and of course he respects this fact. Otherwise Conte wouldn't have started him every match.
Even 5-6 more signings will not be an issue imho.
