Yep I agree.
But we've had our fair share of bargains I suppose.
I've said it plenty but the people in charge of the purse strings will only let this deal go through if they think it won't effect us elsewhere in the market.
I trust those people - the ones in charge now, at least - to make that call, either way.
Personally, while we would be overpaying, I'd pay it. I'd get it done and get him in because he's one of the best players in that position that we can attract in terms of how he suits what Koeman wants (a hard working, strong, physical player with bags of quality on the ball).
It's also balance by the fact that, in the grand scheme of things, we can still recoup the majority of the fee (I'd actually wager all of it) by selling two players who seemingly aren't convinced their futures are at Everton, or have been deemed surplus to requirements.
