Fowler was a boyhood blue and he done alright for Liverpool

Should do well, considering we would have 12 players on the pitch
Jozzy
Player Valuation: £10m
Very good post, especially someone as proven as Dann as well.
Robert Chambers
Player Valuation: £1m
I don't think he will be backup if he signs. Not entirely anyway. I wouldn't expect Jags and Stones to play every single game this season even if they stay healthy, plus it gives us the option of 3 at the back, though I'm not convinced that's actually going to happen.

I didn't know that either. That sort of does make him more appealing.

Birds of a feather flock together
I consider spending ￡8m on Dann is an underwhiming deal. He was ok for the last one and a half year as a PL footballer but for Everton, ￡8m is a lot of money and to break the transfer record (defender record that is) at this club for Dann is questionable. I really hope this is merely a rumour.

Mods, move this post to the other thread if need be but I thought id provide my incite on how I think the more reputable transfer links are going. If anyone feels they need to add on any more than feel free.
1 - Gerard Deulofeu Barcelona
Worst kept secret around at the moment that this is pretty much a done deal thanks to some credible links and the lovely Mari deciding to send tweets of a very blue looking river Mersey. At the price quoted then it could potentially be the signing of the summer (although SKY are only interested in who spends the most surely it should be based on who gets best value for money, but that is for another day). Hopefully this deal will be completed in the next couple of days and we can move onto stalking our next target. Likelihood of signing 9/10
2 – Scott Dann Crystal Palace
Scott Dann has divided opinion on here I see. A proven Premier league defender who we have tried to sign in the past. The question is how much and will he be willing to leave somewhere he has been player of the season and is club captain? Unless he is being brought in as a Stones replacement? Is he left sided by the way? I genuinely don’t know. Does he want to move back to the North West. At 8 million im not sure but I would take him for 6 million but don’t think Palace would sell for that. Solid and an organizer though which we have been missing last season. Likelyhood of signing 7/10
3 – Virgil Van Dijk Celtic
A quick google of this guys name plus any of the premier league teams will produce a news story linking him with pretty much every premier league club, so the genuine interest we have in him is questioned. A more “hipster” option to Dann but is he any good. Playing for Celtic in the Scottish league and sometimes caught out in European games add to that an absence from the dutch international team which isn’t exactly littered with centre backs. Saying that the likes of Wanayama, Forster & Ki have come from Celtic to the prem and done very well. Played left side all last season and is still only 23, although as said, a lot of teams may be in for him which may cause a bidding war that could dilute our chances of getting him. Likelyhood of signing 5/10
4. Mousa Dembele Fulham
Young lad who made his debut for Fulham vrs us a couple of years ago and looked decent. My guess is Dembele would go into the u21 side similar to how Henen did this year. Don’t know much about him but his reord in the Fulham youth team and French teams is exceptional. If we cant buy in talent we may have to develop it. A few twitter “ITK” have said he will sign July 1st, we will just have to wait and see. Likelyhood of signing 8/10
5. Dimitri Payet Marseille
To be honest I hadent heard of this guy until we were linked a week or so ago. A quick youtube of this guy made me think get him here (a quick youtube of Phil Neville’s best bits could do that to though). With a lot of our squad either under 24 or above 32 we need a few “mid range “ players to help the kids along and help the oldies when their legs run out. West Ham seem to have jumped the que since then and reports of a 14 million bid probably means for this “number 10” we will have to look elsewere. Probability of signing 2/10
6. Tom Heaton Burnley
Links/ rumours cam about for the Burnley goalie who has recently joined the England squad. Saved a Ross Barkley penalty at Goodison last year and hasent looked out of place in the prem. A 2million price tag is buttons for a player these days. Can we get better? Will he be replacing Joel or Howard?. Recent comments from Howard with regards to pre season tour & Joels ability as understudy last year suggests neither are going anywere very soon, so I would put this down as another that dosent have any real strength. Probability of signing 3.5/10
As said previously mods, if you feel this needs to go into the speculation thread feel free, but I feel I have only put players we have been genuinely linked with on it and if anyone else feels another player needs adding feel free

Is Dembele really that nailed on? Exciting if true, he has a lot of potential from what I've seen.

Not a bad litle video of Henen's season with the U21s.
I like EAW but how the F would they know?
