Baines' left foot said:
True. Players well may have been available but is it really worth it to overpay when we can only realistically climb one place?

It's not worth 'overpaying' simply because it causes about 30 pages of @davek posts about how we've overpaid...

Got them moves like Messi

Start him.

Heard the fee for his buy out clause is the cost of our new stadium.

I so wanted that shot of his at the end (straight after the save from Davies' header) to go in. So close as well...

Needs to start with KM coming on later on in the game!

Often seen players who come on against a tired defence fail to live up to it when they start. Let the lad get used to the pace in increasing stints and see where we go

This kid is going to be very special. You very rarely feel that with players these days, but I genuinely think we've got two hugely talented youngsters with ability and temperament beyond their years in Lookman and Davies.
I'll whisper it quietly for fear of being besmirched by all and sundry, but he reminds me of the Welshman Owen when he burst onto the scene with the Sh1te and England.

He reminds me more of sterling when he first broke into the Liverpool team. Very direct and great pace, but let's hope he's a better finisher than sterling

He defo is. His shots are wicked.

RK said afterwards that Lookman should have played higher up the pitch closer to Rom.

Enjoyed that last night.

I am, however, concerned I've seen a few punters trying to start one in the tune of the Payet song.

SWERVE.

That's lame

And therein lies our problem.

These two kids will be in the senior England set up in no time and the tapping up from players at Chelsea or City or United will begin

We really need to get up the table ASAP so this stops happening or so that the players are happy to stay with us.

I like both of them but Davies in particular I'd like to see as part of Everton heritage over many years

He looks streets ahead of sterling technically
