Gladly! And Thank You!Best let Nicholson 61 take this one
I can never take anything you say seriously with all your exclamation points and your COYS!!!1! at the end of almost every single post of yours. Drives me crazy.Gladly! And Thank You!
I,ll be brief, because I have to! Because I actually don't know that much about him, except, I know what I like when I see it. As they say (or something similar) in Yorkshire, where Stone originates from. This boy for me, if there is any truth in these reports would be a fantastic investment for us. Even at 25+mill! 6'2, quick and at 20-21? years of age mature (playing wise) beyond his years. CB is his preferred position, but equally comfortable at RB. So Great cover for Walker too. Tenacious in the tackle, dominant in the air. Decent on the ball. Decent distribution, not Ferdinand-esk yet, but that will come. This lad will be an England regular before The Euro's and will obviously be a major player in them and beyond. My only reservation, should he come, would be to much, to soon! By that I mean he only signed for Everton in 2013. If he were to arrive at The Lane, I,d have the confidence, he would settle quite quickly, because this boy seems a natural. However, I,d now like to see Daws retained for another season, just to settle him in! I appreciate, they would not be regular partnership, but I think Daws would help him settle quicker.
I,d love to see him in The Lilywhite.
COYS!!
Ps, Not that brief!
:lloris:I'm pretty sure Sandro speaks Spanish though. Doesn't take away any of the funny factor from your post though.
I must admit I'm concerned about our lack of activity in regards to the back line. It goes without saying that the LB situation was abysmal last year and since Davies the news has mostly gone cold on a potential signing for that spot. I like Rose a lot as cover, but we simply need someone better to be first choice.
Our CB situation is almost equally troubling. We are supposedly trying to sell Dawson and while Vertonghen, Chiriches, and Kaboul are all good options those three are all coming off injury ridden campaigns. Kaboul's health in particularly is not reliable whatsoever. We haven't really been seriously linked to anyone since Lovren. Not buying 1-2 CBs would be a serious gamble especially if Dawson leaves.
So what are we going to do here? I like Marcos Rojo as a LB, he seems gettable. I have no idea who is feasible at CB though.
Apologies Headmaster!I can never take anything you say seriously with all your exclamation points and your COYS!!!1! at the end of almost every single post of yours. Drives me crazy.
In all seriousness though, 25 mil or much cheaper would get you some of the best young center backs in the world like Kurt Zouma, Kyriakos Popadopoulous, Inigo Martinez, De Vrij or Stefan Savic, or even a very good, established CB like Lovren or Howedes. Buying Stones over one of them for that much would be madness.
When we sign him and play at Goodison we will have the inevitable Game of Stones.

Ooh! Stone(s) the crows!When he makes the leap from England Under 21s to First team (I am aware this has happened:
Stepping Stones
Who is this kid, and why hadn't I heard of him until about 3 weeks ago? Did he feature in the first team for the Evertonians? Does he warrant the hype?
Ron, 'Concrete', Vlaar!? He had a fantastic tournament, one of the best performances of the WC imo. Looked better than he really is because of the way we played, with 5 at the back. No option for us i think, not fast enough and makes more mistakes with 4 at the back.I must admit I'm concerned about our lack of activity in regards to the back line.

Top class.
Should have gone to the WC.
Highly unlikely. Would be a dream signing though.
