"Amidst rumours of a £25 million move to Everton, he signed a new four-year deal on 2 August 2016" -Wikipedia. Still though, if Swansea go down he wont be happy being held hostage for an extortionate fee. I'd be happy with £20m or so, otherwise leave it. I'd love him here. Work horse, great technique, scores goals, assists, awesome deal ball expert. Plus he wouldn't cost a bomb in wages.

Strange one wit Robles. Even if Koeman doesn't see a future for him here, he's still no worse than Stekkers, who surly doesnt have a future here as our 'number 1. I'd rather have Robles as a back up next season, if he's happy doing that, than Stek.

Great news, I was hoping that. When is Rojo back? Nothing personal, get well soon, just rather take every chance I can on us climbing the table.

Check-mate, sir.

Playing tonight.

Didn't want to quote it as it was that long but great post Matt, a lot of effort gone into that and shows a great comparison.

You've got to swallow 3 times too, whilst holding your breath. Amature.

Aside from us, I can only really see Liverpool being interested. If city want a centre half they will likely move for VVD, as will Liverpool. City have the better chance of getting him out of those two. Other than that United, Chelsea and Spurs don't need one and Arsenal have just spent a bomb on Mustafi and should be content with him.

I like his aggression and the pace he wants to play at. Sometimes he are far too slow, especially when Ross wants to dither around with the ball at his feet, allowing defenders to regroup. I like to see those hard slidr tackles he throws in, as long as he has the best intentions. He's the box to box player we've craved for years.

So is that us more or less confirmed in the Europa League next season then?

Hopefully he can mmmbop hit the top.

I read somewhere that it was Shakespeare that had a huge influence on Ranieri playing the tactics he did last season. Essentially they wouldn't be champions if it wasn't for him.

To me Leicester completely changed their philosophy at the start of the season. Shakespeare had them playing like the Leicester of last season when he took over, hence the wins.

I didnt feel like Renieri should have been allowed to get them relegated just because they won the league last season. It was the right decision. I love Renieri as much as the next person, but it wasn't working.

Wow that's astronomical, but is it realistic? Will someone pay that?

Come on you Borough!

West Ham 1 - 2 Everton Lukaku

I'd like that, similar to what Terry had done at Chelsea.

I remeber the opening game of the season a fair few years back. Maybe 7 or 8 years ago. They gave us a right spanking. Think king Louis scored our only goal.

Still though 14 million seems excessive? Maybe it's an arse cover incase he had a blinding season. I think they will be flexible on the price

Fair enough, first I've head of that clause. Even so, we can tell WHU that x- million is our offer. Take it or leave it.

July 2019, if you believe Wikipedia. 2 years left, surly they can't demand 14 million. They won't get that for him off another club.

I thought Pelle was a cracking player. Jose didn't look too good last evening though.

All the best Mike have a goodun

I'd take Valencia for 10 million, as long as he is content on being an impact sub.
