Gerard Deulofeu to Everton permanently, around €6m. I wonder if he's learned how to pass since he left.

Three or four at Everton who need a ball each.

Bournemouth prepared to break their transfer record for Tyrone Mings with an £8m bid. I think he's worth every penny of that fee and feel he will develop into a full England International.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Yeah, I like Mings a lot. I think he'll move into the middle eventually.

Napoli have set Gonzalo Higuain's asking price at 95million Euros.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

That is a bit too rich even in an inflated market. Higuain is good without a doubt, but that is a LOT of shekel

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

28 before the turn of the year and one major back injury on his record, I don't think anyone will be interested at that price. Moving from Real Madrid to Napoli in the first place tells you which direction his career is going.

Agreed, probably just mindgames in the end.

Ipswich fans rate Cresswell over him. Town also getting Brett Pitman and Ryan Fraser as part of the deal, that's not a bad return on the 10K Mick paid for him.

Tom Cairney close to signing for Fulham.

 

[Tony Towner]

They look like they will spend big this Summer, they have a long way to go to catch us though and I don't rate their manager

Just De Laurentiis flexing his muscles.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

He should shut up and concentrate on making a sequel to his dad's magnificent Flash Gordon.

Liverpool now set to sign Nathaniel Clyne from Southampton. They are certainly splashing the cash as they try to regain former glories.

Best to bring your replacements into the club before you sell your own prized asset.

In other news Sunderland have made an increased £7m offer for Stewart Downing.

Cresswell looks a great prospect and had a marvelous season but I think Mings could prove to be exceptional. He's one of that rare breed within English football having the ability to take his playground football onto the bigger stage and make it work. Mings has excellent intelligence so should go in the same direction as Lilian Thuram rather than Ronald Zubar, its his choice now.

 

[YoungWolf]

I don't quite think he will be as good as Lilian Thuram though.....

To think we offered 250k odd at the end of our league 1 season! 8m is crazy, I rate him but this move might be a bit early for him.

 

[Lycan]

Hes clearly going to be a good player but I dont get all the fuss tbh. Lilian Thuram FFS...

OK, Here's the challenge, You nominate a player from last seasons Championship who will gain more English caps than Tyrone Mings. I will hang my hat on Tyrone Mings becoming a very special player.
