Link?Interesting what Martinez says about the cruciate meaning he is a young 29. If correct this could be a very good deal for us, if we complete it. I still think it is nearer £5m as I think Whelan said that.
Could be a top striker for the next 4 years.
Kone will sign for Everton lids.
Yall need to chill yo.

Wigan chairman Dave Whelan is perfectly happy with the offers for Kone from both Everton & Newcastle. Will be totally down to Kone to decide

he'd be an idiot to go there. Martinez brought him to the prem and they should trust each other. If he goes it'll only be because of the wages and if that's the most important thing to him then fair enough - good luck to him
I think he will too mate; on this occasion we'll probably get away with the haggling because of the relationship between Martinez and a former player no doubt.
It's pretty obvious though that the *Everton Way* continues even in the wake of the extra tens of millions from the increased tv revenue.
They need running out of town and beaten with sticks. Absolute gangsters they are. They must employ the most creative businessmen in the business to salt all our cash away and still appear empty handed. 'Kin scum they are.
What if Newcastle offer him more wages? I do feel players choose where to go mainly down to wages.

Hang on a mo, every man and his dog were saying Everton were trying to haggle over the payments only a few hours ago, that said Whelan was happy with the offer.
Be brave and admit you were wrong those of you that jumped the gun, you will feel better for it.
