Jeez , we have the best young centre back in Europe and you want to experiment with where he plays. Madness , just like Hodgson playing him at right back for England.

Like the mindless 'Let's play Baines on the wing' shouts.

TBH the quality of the youth is such that, unless we have horrendous injuries, I wouldn't buy anyone in January apart from a new keeper.

i'd take yarmolenko like. Kone's been fantastic this season but yarmolenko is the type of player who would see us win the bigger games.

Maybe, though the upturn in Lukaku's form now that defences have to worry about someone else is noticeable and I am not sure that Yarmolenko would do that role as well as Kone (!) has this season, nor that he wouldn't get in the way of Barkley and/or Deulofeu at times.

I would like to see Galloway sign a new long term contract.
I am sure that there are plenty of clubs whispering into his agents ear already.

If we keep up recent form till Jan and and sign yarmalenko i honestly think we'll finish in the top 4 and win a cup. Excellent team we have now just 2 short

I think once he slots a goal he will naturally have more confidence to attack more directly. This comes with confidence and experience of course to know where to be positionally.

I wonder where his best position will end up being, LB / LCB/ LCDM. He's got the lot...

Id love to see him next to Stones for Everton and England.

It's going to be difficult for any CB (Stones apart) to pin down an England spot over the next decade. CB is one position England are going to have in strength. Thinking about it, it's going to be difficult to pin down a CB spot in Everton!

While it's an unpopular opinion, I do think Baines would be boss in midfield.

Bluebonic · November 23, 2015

If it was up to me Baines would be playing midfield or on the bench while Galloway is in the form he's in! I dont care how good Baines is ( and i still regard him the best LB in the prem) I am a firm believer that if a guy is playing well he should stay in the team until he is injured or his form drops!

How is that fair to the player who was injured, though? What has Baines done to lose his place besides block a shot in training with the wrong ankle?

Baines goes straight back in for me.

Galloway's got a great future but he doesn't offer enough going forward to keep Baines, who for me is still the best left back in the league, on the bench.
