Birds of a feather flock together
Reading that I thought he works for Swansea.
What was in his contract ?
You are as usual just guessing!
Rather we upgraded Ross contact at a young age than blow a vast amount on a 27 year old!
You don't know whether he's refused it or just wants to negotiate it.
You don't know if he wants to leave, therefore you don't know if we have to sell him.
This, but neither is Barkley
Gylfi Sigurdsson is worth the £50m price that Swansea City want for the Iceland midfielder, according to former Scotland international Pat Nevin.
Everton are long-time admirers of the Iceland playmaker and Nevin believes the 27-year-old would be a great catch.
"I think he's a fabulous player... £40-50m? Yes, it's a stupid amount of money," ex-Everton winger Nevin said.
"But if he goes and gets you into the Champions League, well that will not seem like a daft amount of money."
Swansea have already fended off a £40m bid from Leicester for Sigurdsson, who scored nine goals and made 13 assists to help save the Welsh club from Premier League relegation last season.
Sigurdsson - who has scored 15 goals in 50 internationals for Iceland - has three years left on his contract, which he signed last year to become Swansea's highest paid player.
Pat Nevin won 28 caps for Scotland and played more than 100 times for Everton
But with Toffees striker Romelu Lukaku joining Manchester United for an initial £75m, the Merseyside club have the funds to match Swansea's asking price.
"There's a few of us out there that think this guy's extra special and can give you that one thing, that one piece of class that you need to make yourself different from the rest," Nevin told Radio 5 live.
"Sigurdsson gets a game wherever he goes and looks perfectly good in any team you put him in, he's a fabulous player and I think he single-handedly kept his club up last season."

If he doesn't sign the contract by the end of the season, we sell the player. What Koeman has said all along.
Ross wants to leave. Get used to it.
Which means Barkley and his agent told Koeman to do one with his deadline. That's all it means.
You are making the jump to saying he wants to leave. You don't know that. I don't know that. The only people who do are Barkley and his agent and possibly the club.
He signed his last contract in late July in exactly the same circumstances.

Not that I like agreeing with Pat Nevin, but this is pretty much what me and @MorgsGoat are saying.
If Gylfi proves the difference between top four or not, then he's worth it.
But basically, he's worth whatever we're willing to pay.
If that's £30m, sound, he's probably not gonna come here and we'll get somebody else.
If we're willing to go above £40m, then we'll probably see him in an Everton shirt come September (or earlier).
Show me the ink were RK states that quote?
We sell the player?

Player Valuation: £100m
well it's all about options for me, i'd like us to have lots of various ways of scoring. He's only one player, we'd have 10 others on the pitch who can create something from open play if they wish to. Imagine if teams can't live with that, so they resort to hacking us down at every opportunity. Then what? we have a set piece expert that will destroy them from anywhere on the pitch? That's a lot harder to defend against.
Teams have been able to contain a team like arsenal for a good while now, this very way, because wenger refuses to buy a player against the grain. If he bought a couple of players who could hurt you from set pieces, teams like stoke wouldn't be able to bully them every season.
Anyway, it's all a myth he's just a deadball specialist. It's been done to death on here, swansea were renowned for keeping the ball on the deck, regardless of who went and he was instrumental in that. They bought llorente last summer and had to change their style of play and that's why he's become more of a crosser this last year and given this "only deadly from set piece" tag. I remember beckham getting a similar label, would fans turn their nose up at him because he was "limited"?
