If Martinez is our number 1 choice, why did we (according to Whelan), ask permission to speak to him if talks broke down about staying at Wigan. Surely you'd want to speak to him regardless, in the hope of persuading him that we were a better option? This suggests that we were prepared to give...

Everyone is assuming that Roberto is a shoe-in, but this may not be the case. Whelan says that Everton asked for permission to speak to Roberto if talks broke down over him staying at Wigan. If we are that keen on him than why not ask permission even if he had decided to stay, to persuade him...

Maybe he knows who we're after and is assuming they'll be awful, be sacked by the end of next season and he will cost nothing this time next year.

Then I find it strange that Pereira isn't a short favourite given lots of us on here must have had a plunge? We think he's got a choice between us and staying at Porto and he is reported as wanting to come to England and having been in London for a meeting earlier in the week. Even if these...

Amidst all the excitement, suddenly Lennon is shortening in the market (joint 2nd fav at 7/2 with Paddy Power). Is this just the daily bandwagon bet being orchestrated by the bookies to make a few last quid now that things are coming to a head?
