Why would he want to go from being title winners/CL runners up Juve's 3rd choice centre half to 11th place Everton's 3rd choice centre half?

A very worthy question, players sometimes want a new challenge but that on its own isn't enough, you'd have to presume he's confident on being able to break into the first team. However that means either our captain, star youngster our new recruit will be left really shitty and that isn't good for squad harmony.

I know Bobby wants someone at the "peak of his powers" because we already have youngster in Galloway, Browning and even Pennington we're trying to develop into first teamers and whilst he's a mature young leader Stones is still only 21, clubs do need to have mature, experienced leaders, especially down back.

In all honesty I do agree and understand the reasoning, however Stones is extreamly mature, has been a first team player for a while now and has international experience as well. Browning has captained our youth squads and is one of the most highly talked up personalities at the club. Galloway and Pennington both appear to have good heads on their shoulders.

I think it's going to be hard to sign a really good player in their peak yet still willing to be a third choice. I think we should go for a 22-24 year old, someone who's still younger and can grow into a starter yet they're not at that "kid" stage and do actually have some experience.

The Barcelona fans think he's just like Deulofeu but not quite as talented. Another one we could keep if Barca don't want him back perhaps?

Better than McGeady.

Bit similar to Sterling from what I've seen. We were linked with him on loan last year too weren't we? His physicality and work rate would see him offer more than Atsu did to us anyway.

There's no credible link to Adam Traore who seems to be speculatively linked to us every window now.
Please keep talk about him in the speculation thread unless we get a more credible source.
