He has to leave. He needs a new challenge and we need to refresh our scoring options. Somethings just come to there natural end and Everton and DCL have reached that point. I personally wish him well, I hope he goes on to do good things for...

There is something depressingly familiar about this transfer window.

I think the most important part of the appointing new people to these roles is the ability to terminate them without detriment to the club. We have a history of being over generous in our contractual dealings in the past, part of the new Everton...

I have never been a believer in the quick fix. My mindset is if it is a quick fix it usually means it can be quickly unpicked. This looks like we are putting the building blocks in place for future success. I want Everton to be competitive, we...

For me it would be all about the contract he would demand. There is know doubt he has been a top class player and if he is intent on getting back into the England team then he is going to put the effort in but that has to be balanced against the...

Fred is the player we should have been buying last year, he would have went straight into the starting line up and would have improved things right away. He would have offered a bit of steel and would have played regularly. We needed that sort of...

I have no real opinion on him at present because I don’t have enough to base an opinion on in terms of his ability to play for us in the Premier League.

Let us be perfectly honest, whether Keane stays or goes is a matter of how much he wants. If he is prepared to except that he is merely a squad member and cannot command a wage anywhere near what he is on at present then he should stay as it...

We have come a long way since then. I remember Claire Short resigning because of wrong doing on her watch.

I don’t think he is a Moyes type of player. We need players who are going to graft in a Moyes system, we also need to improve on the skill level of the squad. Grealish meets one of those requirements indeed in terms of skill he is way up there...

My boots are still in the shed, but I am only 70 next month so there is still time to make the big break. Something that annoys me slightly is when I meet with people I played with or against the conversation always goes to “who was good”, we...

I am not sure this question is correctly formulated; I don’t think we, which the exception of a few empty heads, hate our players. We have been extremely critical of some of our players but I think you would have to say we are right in feeling...

I think events have conspired to make DCL and Everton a complete mismatch. Let’s be honest if any top half of the league team were still interested he would have been away. As far as Everton are concerned he doesn’t want to be here, we can’t keep...

If he goes to Chelsea he will be out on loan come Christmas and replaced next summer. He needs to be in a squad were he will get minutes on the field and develop into a Premier League forward. While he certainly looks like he has something to...

If we can buy a better player for the same money then that’s what we should do, however I don’t think we can. I would take him at £15 million and a reasonable wage. We will get our monies worth over a three contract and we will still get a few...
