FOR those of us desperately clinging on to the last knockings of the football season the opening of the transfer window offers some light relief tomorrow.
As does England’s match against Brazil.
It seems everyday Everton are linked with a different player and sometimes I feel like shouting “JUST GET HIM”.
How annoying is it when you pick up the paper, see you are linked with a decent player, get all excited, and then see them sign for another club.
I just hope, like last year, we get all our new players in early so they have time to gel with the rest of the squad through pre-season.
Some players I would like to see at Goodison next season are Viduka (much to the dismay of my fellow Everton fans), Leighton Baines, Luke Young, Matthew Taylor, Phil Jagielka and possibly David Nugent. I think these transfers would be affordable and would be realistic for Everton to achieve.
And being in Europe we need the bodies because we don’t do well when we’ve got three games in a week.
