Yeah almost certainly won’t happen. Interesting if you look at Forest best players they’ve followed a similar strategy after that initial Supermarket Sweep. Elanga, Elliott, Danilo, Hudson Odio, Gibbs White were all 24 and under when bought...

The older players should be the best we can (responsibly) afford. Bournemouth and Brentford are also selling clubs, with no greater ambition than upper mid-table. For eternity. Our ceiling is much higher and that’s the attitude we should have...

Well I’m older than you :lol: Happy with older players but I wouldn’t want to pay what I assume Juve would want for him. If he’s a loan or less than £20m great.

Yes we bought Onana at a young age. He wasn’t even that good for us and we made money on him. Kind of proving my point

Brighton, Brentford and Bournemouth aren’t top teams. All buying younger players and developing them. That’s what we should be doing the next few years until we get a foot hold in the top half

I agree on buying a mix of players but the older players should be on low fees. Their wages are usually much higher which I assume Luiz’s are too. It’s not just Brighton is it. It’s also Bournemouth and Brentford. We shouldn’t be trying to...

We paid £8m for Gueye - not the same. Juve paid £42m for him last year. Will they really be selling for £27m less a year later

We signed Lukaku aged 21 so not sure the relevance. If all the better teams are signing younger players then there’s usually something in it. In any event I think that talking about 27-29 being peak anymore isn’t true. Most of the players are...

In fact, most teams bought young players and that should be how it works. Like Brighton. How on earth Brighton got like 40 first team players in their squad and half of them are internationals.

Yeah, I like him, tough and can play

Out of all the players City, Liverpool and Chelsea have bought so far this year it looks only Reijners is over 24. That’s the route we should go down.

I think he’s a great player and have been all for it all Summer. Just realised he’s 27 already. If we spend £40m we are very unlikely to get anything back from him. Maybe not the way we want to go this time.

To be honest, I would have kept Lindstrom before I’d have kept this fellow.

It's a Textor-Marinakis stitch up so doubt anyone else had a chance.

If you’re an Everton fan, and you’ve paid attention over the last few years, and you don’t think Gallagher is good enough to improve our midfield, then you’re a fool.
