Stones is playing games and clearly happy.

However it's clear that we need to be keep him happy...thats done with being a key player, pay rise, and seeing top players signing.

An england international and well liked spaniard signing are good steps but i think we need one big signing to get the players and fans excited for the new season.

.......if John Stones truly is the player we all think he is then his stock will rise by staying. This is a win, win situation for Stones and Everton in that his worth will increase and he will play regular football. The only losers are Chelsea because if they truly want him they will have to pay significantly more in 12 or 18 months time. Chelsea know this which is why they are trying to get him now.

Haven't heard anything about shaqiri lately? You'd think he would of completed his move to Schalke by now if he was going there.

Gone on tour with Inter to China. Surprise inclusion in the squad.

If he goes anywhere I would like it to be out of the Prem. Barca or Bayern.

Or back to Barnsley.

I notice the likes of west ham and chelsea have been doing their business in public to try and unsettle the players and use the press as a talking point.
Wheras other teams (newcastle for example) have done alot of their bidding in private and their deals tend to get done one or 2 days of being reported.
As martinez has said at everton we like to do our bidding privately and with a bit of respect.
Whos approach do you prefer and who do you think gets better results from it

Good article in the Guardian about rich clubs in the premier league buying up all the players.

I disagree that clubs are powerless to prevent players leaving though. You don't have to accept the bid and players on long contracts aren't in a position to kick up a fuss. When you look at what it costs to find a replacement these days a bid has to be huge for it to be a good decision to let an important player leave and even then it doesn't always work out for the best.

I guarantee there will be 2-3 very good signings before the season starts.

RM has stated all along what he wants, that has not changed in fact, after the Arse game, it is even more evident.

"Very good signings" is up for interpretation.
There are, staggeringly, still some that consider Kone a very good signing...

That's the one mate.

I actually had to stop following him on the twits as he bangs on about Belgian players all the sodding time!

West Ham are cheeky *****. Can't wait for them to get relegated.
