If the rumours are true it can only mean we have agreed a deal for someone (probably Depay as has been mentioned). Can't see him being loaned out without a replacement being agreed - particularly with Bolasie on long term injury. I hope it's not true though.
 

His main rivals are Bolasie, Mirallas and Lennon. The manager surely think they offer more than him.
We all know what this new manager and how he selects teams apart from the omission of Del and Ross the old out of form players seem to get selected three defensive midfielders etc etc so no atm I do not trust what team he puts out imo the jury's still out on this new manager - lets hope he gets it right in the future I feel he has a lot of deadwood to get rid of well before Del - if he is out on loan to inter milan it's because he has not been given a chance under RK two games since August starting is hard to judge - KM, Bolasie till injury,lennon have not pulled up trees either imo like ross youth seems to be a reason not to start them imo
As for the training rubbish, I want to see fair play Tom Davies is MOTM nearly every week in the under 23s he did more in 5 minutes than barry the captain did in 60 minutes at Leicester explain that one away - a midfield of Barkley, Ghana and Davis should start tonight bit they won't!
If they do I know we will win !

From people who watch the U23s, most say that Liam Walsh looks a much better player than Tom Davies.

I understand you cant stand Koeman, but as ive stated, Martinez, Emery and Enrique at Barca have all dropped him the first chance they all got.

I can stand him not just yet he has a lot to prove spend less time on the golf course etc he does not get our club ATM imo - he had trouble with good players at Southampton one would not follow him to us the other lot got him cheapo MANE!
 

I think one of the problems (for managers) with Deulofeu is that he is the type of player that when you instruct him to play your type of game he becomes a less than ordinary player as you kill the flair he possesses. That in my opinion is why he has been dropped often after 6 months roughly, as he surely haven't been dropped due to his lack of capabilities when he was playing 'his' way...providing a lot of assists, pulling defences open etc. Change his way of playing and he isn't the same player anymore. I think thats why Emery said put him (Deulofeu) one on one with anyone in the world and pffft...but he must learn to become a team player. Unfortunately most managers want their players to fit into their system and the player must adapt...and that is where the main problem lies imo.

The other problem is that for him to excel he needs to start regularly...not just the odd times here and there. Its harder for highly technical player to get into form if you don't play them regularly (once again my opinion). I do think if he is given a fair chance and allowed to play his game he will be a very valuable player. Its not just about assists or goals as he is a player that can pull defences apart allowing other player to create chances and score the goals when on form. Unfortunately not all teams can afford to play players like Deulofeu especially when its not a strong team all around.

I think we will make a huge mistake in letting him go but at the same time can't see him flourishing at Everton due to the way we are playing at the moment. For his own good I think he needs to leave if we wont change our style of playing in the near future and I hate saying that as I am sure he will be one of those players in a few years time where we will say...if we only held onto him. This is also why I have a problem at the same time in letting him go...how many players do I think are in our team that can be a 'only if we held onto him' in the future...not many.

Not sure we even bid for Mane.

But Koeman fall out with him due to sloppy time keeping and poor effort in games, plus I dont consider 34m cheap.
