I’d much rather keep him and make him Captain one day, hence the word If, but if it’s got legs we need to get as much as possible.
He like everybody else in the squad has got a price.
he’s not going to spurs tho i’m betting my life

We aren’t a rival to spurs mate. They have had a poor league position this year but still won a European trophy. We are miles behind that. We haven’t won a trophy in 30 years, we have almost been relegated about 3 times and apart from the stadium, our name is probably mud out there at the moment. Imagine your agent saying ‘Everton or Spurs then, what you thinking?’. All of our hearts say Everton but the reality is it’s probably Spurs all day.In football, everyone is a selling club bar Real Madrid sadly.
That said, I wouldn’t be selling our prized asset to Spurs. Moving into our shiny new stadium, I see them as a rival. In terms of history, they aren’t all that, but have had the revenues and financial backing, despite their protests. Really angered me in 2009 when we had a bid accepted for Kyle Naughton, and they blew us out the water and took him and Kyle Walker. Kenwright couldn’t compete with Joe Lewis’s money, but the media made them out to be somehow “plucky”.
Bramley Moore won’t change all of that, but it hopefully reduces some of their financial advantage, if we also get it right on the pitch.
There are some clubs who are sadly a long way in front, and we aren’t meaningfully closing the gap soon (let’s say Arsenal) . So whilst it would upsetting to sell to them, we wouldn’t be strengthening a rival. With the likes of Spurs, Newcastle, Villa and United, I see it as strengthening a rival. If Branthwaite is as good defensively as we think he is, we could be sorting their defensive woes out for the next 7/8 years.
Big no to selling to spurs.
We’ll see what happens but if he’s sold this window it won’t be for anywhere near £100m.
He’s a great player but we probably overrate him compared to other centre halves in the game.
£60-70m is a fair price and I don’t see the club rejecting that if a bid comes in.
Get yourself penI can see him going to Spurs if they stump up the money (big if seeing how tight Levy is).
Romero wants to go to Athletico and is pretty open about leaving.
Add Anthony Gordon to that list. Not sure what the fee we got for him.Leicester got 70 for Fofana and 80 for Maguire and how long ago was that? Is Branthwaite inferior to those two? Palace have rejected those types of bids for Guehi.
If a club wants him they’ll have to pay but as Moyes said they better bring a big bag of cash.
I don’t know why people think Everton let players go on the cheap.
50 mill for Stones, a record at the time for a CB I think
90 mill for Lukaku, also a record before the Neymar deal distorted the entire market that summer
Even Rooney was a record for a teenager at the time
Richarlison went for 60 mill and that was with us over a barrel for PSR
We don’t sell cheap, especially when we’re not forced to.

Just finished 16th or whatever it was. First trophy in 17yrs. Not won a title for 64 yrs. he ain’t wasting the next 3/4yrs of his career at spursSpurs who have just won a European trophy, play in a 63k stadium, offer London living (which isn’t for everyone I know), will offer big wages, and champs league football. If they come in with say 70m, he’s gone.

Makes you think about how much money we`ve wasted when you look at those fees that were brought in for transfers.45mil
