TrentFox Posted 8 June 2023 Posted 8 June 2023 Maybe a small thing, but he’s not long spent a fortune doing his house up in Widnes. That was part of his desire to be at Everton. Can’t see him wanting to commute - not that it’s a big deal on their salaries, aside from the inconvenience. 🤷 1
JimJams Posted 9 June 2023 Posted 9 June 2023 Not fussed on Coady. Like him but he's not been good enough for a place in 2 struggling teams last season. So not sure what his level even is now.
Popular Post Jon the Hat Posted 9 June 2023 Popular Post Posted 9 June 2023 We need leaders. If he is a leader, get him in. 7
Popular Post StriderHiryu Posted 9 June 2023 Popular Post Posted 9 June 2023 Coady and Cairney would be good for the Championship. Then you’ve got experience and leadership in defence and midfield, our 4 cbs would be Faes, Souttar, Evans and Coady. But after two signings like that I’d only want us to sign 20-24 year olds with resale value to develop. But we 100% need leaders. Our best leader was Schmeichel. The team looked lost without him. 8
Popular Post GingerrrFox Posted 9 June 2023 Popular Post Posted 9 June 2023 Coady was an England squad member not that long ago. He’s more than good enough for the Championship and a promotion push. Hopefully the fact we are local to his West Midlands home and we are seen externally as a favourite to get straight back up should swing it. 5

Jabfox Posted 9 June 2023 Posted 9 June 2023 I'd take him, still 30 as well which isn't old for a CB. 2
les-tah Posted 9 June 2023 Posted 9 June 2023 Isnt he only good in a 3 at the back formation? So wouldn't this depend on the style the new manager will be playing?

jonny_wright Posted 9 June 2023 Posted 9 June 2023 (edited) A cb list of Evans, Coady, souttar and Faes in the championship would be comfortably the best in the league, Coady was in the England squad last year!! Edited 9 June 2023 by jonny_wright 2
Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 9 June 2023 Popular Post Posted 9 June 2023 Ronnie Edwards please, him and Souttar together and we're dancing. 7

Popular Post The People's Hero Posted 9 June 2023 Popular Post Posted 9 June 2023 I would like Ronnie Edwards in. If Evans is not renewing, then Coady is a sensible signing. Due to absence of genuine wingers, we may end up playing 3 centre backs; I suppose. Depends on new manager and who we sign. Not sure if Coady has been captain at previous clubs or has much leadership, but we definitely need a near on ever-present who has some leadership about them. Maybe he's the man. 6

We lack numbers and quality out wide, so I can see a change of formation in our reset as being an option and will save us money

A leader at the back who can take over from Jonny 'Ouch my heel' Evans, and plug the gap left by Soyuncu. A big character too. Exactly the sort of player we are going to need. Edited 9 June 2023 by MonkeyTennis? 1
The People's Hero Posted 9 June 2023 Posted 9 June 2023 I think my final question would be - how hungry is he? Has he kept himself in tip-top condition? Does he want a run at forcing himself back in to the England side? If he really wants it, then this could suit both parties. I conclude that if he's fit and motivated and wants it, then I'm all in on this. Its not taken me long to come to settle on that as my position. Let's do it. 1
Ric Flair Posted 9 June 2023 Posted 9 June 2023 If we need a left footed CB who's ace in a back three then Jacob Greaves from Hull please. 4

Simonb Posted 9 June 2023 Posted 9 June 2023 I'd take Coady in if Evans doesn't sign a new contract or faes leaves. Wouldn't want all 3 of them and souttar as our 4. Need someone with a bit more pace in my opinion
