Fatwa and Fellows are two cost low options that improve our right side and we would get at least our money back if need to shift out if they can't cut it in the pl. Would prefer Dibling like

Don't be so sure Fatawu will be low cost...

Dwight McNeil needs to be shifted out if possible, particularly if we can bring in Dibling. McNeil can only play 1 position—left wing, and he's now 3rd best there. Could probably get £10m for him.

£10million??? Double it and maybe that’s about the right starting bid in this market for McNeil.

Any CM’s linked?

Convert him to left back

….i like converted wingers but he was awful when we did that in a home game last season.

10 mil!! We signed him for 20. Getting roughly 10 g+a on the bounce for 3 years must really have dragged that figure down...

Anything else in the pipeline?

Signing Grealish is really important for the status of the club. After all these years of losing out on players and hearing the “why would xyz go to Everton” it’s a statement and a much needed one

I hope he isn’t, they never won anything

The good thing about Grealish is that it relieves the pressure on every other signing. Otherwise it’s just headlines like ‘can Barry replace DCL, he better had do for 30 million’, ‘Are Everton missing Doucoure, 0 goals and 0 assists for Alcaraz and Dewsbury Hall after 45 minutes’. Same with whoever comes in at right wing.

With Grealish in town though all media attention will be on him. The rest of the new signings can just bed in without ridiculous media piling on pressure.

The problem at this stage of the window is that all players we want to sign as right sided attackers will cost an awful lot of money. There's a real possibility all these alternatives, who maybe aren't as good as our previous targets, cost just as much or even more as we get to the end of the month.

The decision might to overpay on someone we like, overpay on someone we don't like as much, or then we are left hoping for a last minute loan which is far from ideal.
