jonny evans can play centre back and left back...there arent many are there!
Dendoncker can play LCB and DM. And some. He has Koemanesque passing range on him except with both feet. Get him in and a specialised LB cover, maybe the lad Tierney. Bring in Dolberg for up front and Zat will never need to spend another baht on Viagra;)

Right, just gonna watch this Tierney lad now and see what all the fuss is about.
 

Long post so read at your peril.
Having a few pints last night with the lads when a well known sports presenter came in to watch the RS with his dad
This lad would regularly be on TV with well known retired premier league footballers and ex managers
His dad is a blue and he supports Manure.
We all got chatting and his take on Everton's transfer business from talking to the professionals is this.
Everton knew Rom was going months ago and to whom and for how much.
This ties in with Roms statement that staying was not an option and why Chelsea never bid.
Looks like his agent and Pogba had the deal sorted with Manure
United wanted Morata as back up but knew he wouldn't come if Rom was signed as he wanted to be first choice , hence United bidding for Morata before announcing Rom
When Morata wouldn't come and Everton gave the go ahead deal was announced.
Tony Pulis amongst others said Everton would spend big so they had an inkling of what was going on.
Don't forget Rom has friends at West Brom from his time there
We knew we had the Lukaku money coming and deals for Keane Pickford Klassen Sandro and Siggy were agreed well before the season ended and before the Rom deal was announced so we wouldn't get fleeced on prices.
Siggy deal was agreed with Swansea but the Americans vetoed it when they seen the money floating around.
Clement knew the situation and had his targets picked out and is really pissed off with the delay.
Everton were not going to be bullied and threatened to pull out over the price rise.
Only Koeman wanting him so much made Mosh get the deal done.
Barkley is going to Spurs but they want him cheap and Barkley fancies CL and playing at Wembley and he doesn't get on with Koeman
Gangsters and money don't come into it
There is still more money to be spent irrespective of outgoings
Seemingly RK has it in his contract on the level of financial support he will be given. One ex PL pro has told the presenter that expect one big name to join before the window shuts and the transfer merry go round stops
All the players RK wants he will get if they are available.
On a side note VVD is going no where
Couthino will go but RS want one more year out of him
Southampton will spend big before window closes hence the desire to keep VVD
Not claiming to be ITK but this fella talks to the pro lads regularly

Interesting

Big name as in gylfi or big name after?
 

Wouldn't have thought Anderlecht would have a chance in Hell of signing Ricardo.

Yes but honestly I wish he wasn't; if he is the one from Nice, RSCA already own a better one: Najar (he prefers playing RW; but can play RB). Only he is literally made out of glass. Hardly played the previous season. Ruptured his ligaments, done his hamstring etc. Every time he manages to stay fit for a while you instantly have interest from other teams like Arsenal (where he would join the others in the treatment room) etc. So the ideal solution would be a fit Najar, but since that's not happening he'll have to buy yet another RB while the money would be better spend on something else.
