I can %100 understand why the media are doing all this. Lets face it, we have 317 pages of this, even if nothing is going on its still a story and will leads to clicks on web pages, phone calls to radio stations and sales of papers....etc
The story is viable if it is happening or not, we have shown that ourselves right here.

Didn't quote anyone didn't mention the word fact. Just writing my opinion like most others on here. Off your high horse fella.
The only reason why the story isn't dying is because the media won't let it (remember Baines) even Chelsea have gone quiet, but at the end of the day it isn't the media or Chelsea who make the decision whether Stones leaves or not, that is down to us, and he's going nowhere, so just chill mate and don't let it all get to you.

If he goes and we only get one central defender in and no creative players, next summer might be too late to start spending the money!
That's fine, but in that case they should report news, not propaganda trying to sell the player by proxy for the London club.
This is exactly what's going to happen. *Pushes Lukaku off screen.* We're going to get a massive sum for Stones on deadline day and then not spend a cent of it. *Shush, Rom.* Martinez will come out in January and say they're saving the Stones' money for the summer because prices are too high in January. *Throws a towel over Rom who just won't stay sit still.* Come next summer, we won't spend a pound on anyone.
Oi, will someone get Lukaku under control? I'm trying to make a point here.
ARTETA............. springs to mind.
I find it really weird how Mourinho has handled this to be honest. He's put himself in a position where he's going to have to pay mega money... makes it clear how important the transfer is to him and on top of that insults the selling club to the point where they could only possibly sell now if nobody could object to the fee.
If they'd handled it quietly, they could have probably got Stones for around £30m. As it stands, I'd be amazed if he goes for anything less than £40m - and I'd be angry about it too.

We came out from the start and said Stones wasn't for sale.
Maybe every time the media make up some more bullshit, we should keep coming out and saying he's not for sale?

Yawn
They wont .
We wont.
You think we'll just roll over at the 2nd bid thats up to you.
The same board had a bid for Baines & Fellani combined....Manu got one of them for how much ?
The lad will be worth double that in another 12 months,whats the hurry ?Any how sooner he stays ...at any price.
I find the old "the club want to sell" argument very tired to be honest.
The club technically want to sell any player that is contracted if the bid is good enough. That goes for 99% of teams in world football. If someone offered £500m for Messi now, Barcelona would look at it seriously and a good part of them would want to sell the player as a result.
So of course Everton would want to sell Stones for say £50m. We'd be stupid not to - as that is above and beyond his market price now and probably as much as he'll ever be worth.
The issue isn't that for me - the issue is whether we need to sell.
I'm not one of those who thinks the money we get from transfers disappears - it generally doesn't (except for Arteta, which was robbed from the squad. Fellaini/Rooney was reinvested etc.). My concern is that despite massive money flowing into the game in England, we are average on wage spend and massively below average on transfer spend. With that being the case, we should at the very least not need to sell players if we don't want to.
If we do need to sell to buy, then the only explanation I have is that some pretty serious level fraud is going on behind the scenes. If we end up selling Stones for anywhere near £30m, that would be frightening to me, as it'd indicate we couldn't afford to stand our ground and say no.
