Legitimately Stones should be the only one the front office can feasibly let go. He is the "most replaceable" star we have.
While it would cost a bit for an everyday starter at CB it would far easier to find than add an alternative puzzle piece to the second coming of the holy trinity.

(how is that for hyperbole)
 

Rebuilding?!?!?!?!?! These players haven't done anything yet. They are 22 -- the team BUYING them is rebuilding. We would be destroying.

Sell Stones and then tell Rom we can't sell him this year because Stones went. We can't keep Stones long enough for him to win us games anyway -- Rom can win us games now.

Rebuilding is an insane thing to do and no way Martinez is going to start rebuilding 3 years into the club. It makes no sense for Everton and it makes no sense for his personal career either.

Selling Stones wouldn't be rebuilding -- if we spent the money on 26+ y/o defenders it would likely be an immediate upgrade (just lower potential).

Take money from Stones and get a IN PRIME defender and a new goalie and otherwise stand pat (aside from deadwood).

If RM can't keep Rom, Del and Barkley together for one more year then I'd fire him. They are still worth more to us than the money (because nobody as good as Rom would sign for Everton). Stones can go though. Spain preferably.

Have to agree 100%, Daft of us to mention Stones and Lukaku still playing for us after the summer. Good news is though that with £100 million, We could probably sort out the goal keeper and the whole leaky goal situation.
probably good call mate but what worries me is that I would have like to have heard "he's a quality signing who can score and make goals", NOT "he'll work his socks off"--Straq anyone?

i thought this, but then what centre backs would we get? jags will need replacing as well soon(although galloway might step up)

IMO you can get by without a ball playing CB. We just need to add someone that can clean up messes and make good decisions. While I think Stones will be great someday, he is a luxury to me.
