EVERTON TEAM ASSESSMENT, PART 4: Attacking Mid Targets

Part four of our 2024–25 Team Assessment digs into Everton's creative conundrum. With Dominic Calvert-Lewin's exit all but official, the guys evaluate potential reinforcements up top, headlined by the links to Villarreal striker Tierno Barry. Is he worth the €40M plunge? They then dive into the main course: central attacking midfield, where Charly Alcaraz, McNeil, and Ndiaye are all "options"... for now. James, Ryan, and Shan run through free agents, relegation bounce-backs, and rising stars who might finally bring some spark between the lines. Bilal El Khannous? Martin Baturina? A wild Grealish rumor? It's all on the table. Plus: tactical needs, financial tradeoffs, and which prospects have world-class ceilings (and which don't). Smart, skeptical, and as always, backed by data, this episode is your blueprint to Everton's options at CAM this summer.  Get in touch: https://linktr.ee/thebluefrontier [email protected]
