Nketiah deserves an England call up. He can still play for Ghana if he wants. He's proven he can play the lone front man role. |

Someone like Declan Rice may not be out of reach after all I would hate to be the Everton Manager right now. High wages and yet not commensurating with performance |

High wages and yet not commensurating with performance It looks like Dyche is going to be that manager. His first game in charge will be against us. Not ideal for us with everyone else having been able to play Lampard's horror show - they're still poor players and we're still top of the league so we should win. Dyche is a good appointment for Everton though |

We’ve bid £60m for Caicedo from Brighton. I think I’ve read Brighton want over £75m |

Is it just a convenient story to divert attention away from our real targets? |

Is it just a convenient story to divert attention away from our real targets? Who knows. The bid is £60m fixed so I presume Arsenal can go higher with add ons. Chelsea will surely come back in with a bigger bid. Apparently Edu put a confidentiality clause in the negotiations for Kiwior so no leaks came out. I think he knows (or suspects) teams watch what we do.... |

Laws of negotiation. If you start off at 75 they will ask for 100 lads Seems weird that we are going so large this window. I literally know nothing about the player apart from clips. He doesn’t look a natural partey replacement though from what I saw. Are we genuinely going to Break our transfer record Saw a clip of Ramsdale on a podcast saying Trossard is not here to sit on the bench and he’s going to take someone’s place. |

If Trossard starts tonight I could see Tierney get a start as well, he seems to work better with a forward who cuts inside more than a touchline hugging forward. But Arteta's general plan is for the wide men to hug the touchline |

Do you think we'd be going so big in this window if we weren't top and had areal chance at the title? I'm hoping everyone sees it as a real opportunity so are willing to risk a bit more, or bring forward some spending for the chance of glory |

Now that we look to have a realistic chance of top 2 where the real TV money is paid, it's a decent punt. |

Can you or anyone else advise what type of player he is and what makes him a 'top' player to get us to bid 60 million for him. Fees are well and truly ridiculous these days. Can he do what Partey does? |

If Ramsdale did say that isn't that a tad disrespectful to the current holders of the front line? Sorry i think it was TG said he saw a clip of Ramsdale saying that |

I’m not sure why we are linked with him as it’s the transfer that we never seem to pull off for major England internationals at Arsenal but I’ve heard some mentioning there re very specific reasons he wants to join Arsenal. His dad is a season ticket holder at Stamford bridge but he’s just had a kid a few months back and insists he wants to play in the champions league. He’s a good enough player to adapt roles, ie he could play in xhaka and parteys role |

Hi david, I am not professing to be his biggest fan or to have studied his game in depth but he seems a very good all action player in the Kante mould....... strong, athletic, reads the game well and a decent passer. Only 21, too, so lots of room for improvement. Not sure why anyone is really getting to invested in this story, though, it isn't happening. Even if we were to agree a fee at a higher price you can bet Chelsea will get involved. |

West Ham will want a big price, lots of other big clubs interested. Lots can change between now and the summer. |

Arsenal ready to go back with an improved bid for Caicedo. Back up plans are one of: Bamba (£26m release clause) Zubimendi (£52m release clause) Onana - no idea what Everton would want but they've just sold Gordon to Newcastle for £40m Zubimendi would appear to be the more cultured passing midfielder of the 4. The other 4 are more the athletic tacklers. |

Quite common to get minor injury set backs after a long time out. Still plenty of time for Emile Smith Rowe to re-establish himself |

Bellingham & Rice for sure but apart from those 2 who else? have we honestly seen enough of this player to pay 70 million and break our transfer record. That would be a massive call and total eye opener Does anybody know anything about him. |

That would be a massive call and total eye opener Does anybody know anything about him. Not a sausage. But his YouTube clips left me unimpressed tbh. All action and like someone else said big sliding tackles like Wan Bissaka. The kind of player Wenger would never have signed, and seemed to be always chasing a Santi Cazorla type, but then we ended up physically light most of the time. Maybe he’s a bit of midfield steel to go with Ødegaard, Zinchenko et al and at 21 however he develops maybe the team will adapt around him. For instance, Rodri (who I hate, which must mean he’s good) plays it differently to Partey but could do a job in our team. I’d much rather the Zubimendi links, but maybe it’s Zinchenko in the 6 and this guy for the 8. Whoever we get we have options. |
