Phil Jagielka

No, are there rumours Galloway will go as well?

Think that given the ages there is room for Jags, Williams, RFM and a few of the young defenders. Not convinced on Kone.

Jags will be in and out this season injury wise anyway!

Is this reality it is someone playing with us?

I think it's got legs but that's only from gut feeling!

Not that I am Jagielka's biggest fan, but a few days before the season starts to sell your captain?

His hamstrings do seem to be playing up recently but don't think having so few backup options helped him as he has often had to play when he really shouldn't which has worsened the situation.

Hopefully having more than three CBs will mean that not only can players fully recover but there is good competition so can rotate as they find/lose form.

Though the timing sucks, we need a new leader anyway

Firstly, Jags has never been more than just a good CB in my eyes, yes he's shown great consistency and some fine displays defensively but someone as poor on the ball and Jags is can never be considered a top CB in modern football... I will always respect him as a top professional with a fantastic attitude... but we have to face he is on the decline, injury prone and not good/reliable enough to start anymore, be good to keep him as a 3rd choice CB and a positive presence around the younger players, but it is an equally as good chance to cash in

I don't disagree mate. Winds of change blowing a gale at Everton it would seem.

It does feel like we've had pretty much the same team/squad for abar 10 or more years to be fair.

Good!

Good player but maybe Kone would be a good upgrade ...?

Hopefully for the better
does not look that great at this moment in time been linked to every top player signed noone, and Lukakus future in doubt!

Lukaku will stay. I'll remain positive. We needed a big broom.

Why injury prone old been a great buy lets cash in on him!

Wouldn't get anything more than 5million. No need to sell - don't want three new centre backs this summer.
