Got used to the idea of him coming here, he obviously wants to so that gives us some traction. Swansea aren't in a position to reject a £10m offer really.

£10m + £2m if we qualify for Champions League.
 

Unless we get more information I'll take the potential move as still a big possibility.

It's hard to comment not knowing any real facts but we may have gone and bidded 6/7m over a year or two and they 3/4m in bonuses depending on performances and how many games he play but Swansea may just want the 10m in one lump sum. It's probably our first official bid as well, you're always going to be more conservative with your first bid.
 
Did Swansea not see what we did with Southampton for Koeman?


If Koeman wants him and Walsh has him on his list, he'll be ours.
 

Think a testimonial for this multi millionaire is ridiculous and a waste. With us for a very little time so why are we pandering to him. He has not retired from footie.

Much better things for folk to do and spend their money on.

With respect the near £3 million raised is going to charity namely NSPCC, Claire House Children's hospice, Alder Hey Children's hospital and the Manchester United Foundation.

Having the testimonial now also escapes the new taxation rules for testimonials from 2017 onwards, thereby maximising the benefit to charities.
 
Personally think an agent is at play here- agent contacts Everton to say he may be interested in a move - we bid then uproar in Swansea from fans and media and before you know it he will be offered a bumper new 4/5 year contract to finish his days there. Meanwhile he has kept quiet and can just claim to be flattered by interest from other clubs but never wanted to leave. Agent and players the winners their fans happy.
