Is JONJOE KENNY a realistic signing option for us this summer? He has been Mr. Consistent since he came in. HH.
18 Mar 2021 13:36:35
ad sign him ye know what we have with him under right manager will only get better.
18 Mar 2021 13:43:32
We will see how he comes through his test on Sunday.
It will depend on how much his transfer fee will be.
I think Jo Joe will enter the last year of his contract in the summer.
On of our Ed’s correctly described Jo Joe, by saying he was a decent player but his crossing can be poor.

I've been impressed with him as a proper right back; not make-shift like Frimpong (who also couldn't cross that well) .
With JF in front of him there could be a good partnership and if we eventually replace Scott Sinclair, we could have the same balance on the left with Taylor in the need arose?
18 Mar 2021 15:20:02
in terms of being a right back and what a right backs first job is to do and that is to defend kenny is a upgrade on Frimpong. Frimpong could not cross or defend. if we can get kenny for the right price its a must for me.

Agreed UI.

Kenny is a very good prospect. one thing he does is look for the final pass were it finds a team mate. YES he has to improve but with game time and working with his new team mates that will come. all we need now is a striker who can get on the same wavelength and we will be quids in. hh.

There is no way we could sign Kenny, Ancelotti has already stated that his future is at Everton.
I think we need to give young Lee O’Connor a chance.
{Ed007's Note - You'd think Everton would have started contract talks with a player who will only have a year left on his deal and who they were willing to sell to Burnley for £8 million in January. Burnley wanted a loan with a guarantee buy but Everton wanted £10 million for that deal, they quoted them £8 million for an immediate purchase.}

Looks bang average to me. Another full back that can't cross and doesn't have an assist yet as far as I am aware. For the vast majority of domestic games we don't need him to defend but to get to the byline a put in decent crosses. We'd all like another Tierney that can do anything but I'd much prefer an attacking player given the choice.
18 Mar 2021 17:13:17
bigbubs. nonsense mate every game no matter who it is you need your defenders to defend first that should be there main focus keep the back line tight then think about hitting the by line. look state of us this season cause our defence has been stinking at defending frimpong and laxalt playing like attacking players you speak off no care what's so ever in the defence side of it. kenny is steady and knows his jobs keeps the defence tighter.
18 Mar 2021 19:14:29
UI you've just described Taylor who gets pelters every week. Laxalt and Frimpong are useless going forward as well. An attacking wing back with an engine to get up and down is what's needed. Get the CB position sorted and some energy in the DM position and you won't need them to do much defending.

i like taylor think he is similar to kenny tough steady defender will only get better under the right manager. since taylor and kenny came in and laxalt and Frimpong were out the team our defence has been better. i feel more confident with Taylor in the team than i do laxalt. think taylor and kenny are very similar in several ways they get stuck in and can defend can push forward but get back also to do there defence duty's and they do it well both young and will improve a lot with more games. those 2 would be my starters next season. try keep ajar and give welsh more game time he has earned it.
need some cover in the full back positions and 2 centre backs punt Julien we already have a energetic DM in soro who is more than good enough that spot should be is own and brown should be his cover. all that's needed is the right coaching staff and a few additions and its back to business as usual.

His crossing needs to improve but he's without an assist because the good balls he has put in the box multiple players have been guilty of swiping at thin air when it was the easiest of tap ins. He's helped solidify the defence since his arrival hopefully Taylor is back for Sunday too, both wing backs would benefit with wingers in front of them.
