Summer Transfer Window - Credible Rumours Only Please

[evertony]

Scott Dann looks like a very sensible target to me....English, experienced and not soft. Good age for a CB too.

Be surprised if Clevz plays in centre midfield like

Really? Where do you see him playing?

 

[Furey1878]

The window so far with a bit of ad lib...

Dann - Isn't Alcaraz or Distin
Deulofeu - isn't Atsu
Cleverley - may mean Barry doesn't play every single sodding game.

It's all good in the hood.

hahahahahha

Good one, mate.

Wishful thinking.

One of the 3 behind Lukaku in a 4-2-3-1. Martinez never played him as a holding mid at Wigan.

I'd be happy with Dann. He seems a good fit. Has that fella on the EFC before got things right before?

Has Gerard's bird deleted her tweet that was from when she was in Liverpool, or was it a rumour? Can't find the tweet.

She deleted it I think, I posted it in the Deulofeu thread so it definitely existed.

Alright, so we've just had three pages of people giving opinions of whether Dann would be a good signing (as usual not backed up with any evidence).

Some of us may be more interested in what's being rumoured and how credible this is.

So to sum up : yesterday the link was revived by the Star, and their headline was significant : "Everton could launch £8m bid". In other words, there's not been any formal approach so far.

Then 24 hours later on p134 there's a screenshot of a Twitter message saying a Dann deal is close. Hmm. Somehow I doubt whether things have moved on that much in the last 24 hours. And are Palace really going to cave in that easily and sell their captain who has two years left on his contract to the first crap offer they receive in mid-June ? Come off it. The interest in Dann may be genuine but I wouldn't get too excited yet.

Also I don't think signing Dann means he's a back up, I wish people would stop saying that.

Chelsea have Terry, Cahill, Zouma and Ivanovic
United have Jones, Smalling, Evans, Rojo
City have Demichellis, Kompany, Mangala
Arsenal have Chambers, Koscielny, Mertesacker and Gabriel

Even Liverpool have Skrtel, Sakho, Lovren, Toure and Illori

You play different players in different games, and there will be injuries, plus I doubt Dann would sign if he knew he was going to be behind Stones and Jagielka every game.

Yes eight million may seem expensive and yes he's 28 but would people rather spend nothing on another Alcaraz or wait around for another Stones to crop up?

If he signs I expect he will be successful and preferring VVD over him because he takes free kicks and is Dutch is a joke.

Dann has been playing in a proper league against legit strikers.

Van Dirge is playing against Scottish drunken tramps.

Dann every day of the week for me.
