Some twitter folk claiming Martinez is trying to make a late swoop for Okore. SSN could fill hours with "sources" loosely based on Twitter crap.


f**k off FSW slim cousin
That's an area that Everton are reasonably solid. Okore walks into our team, but Everton? Not sure. I still think he'd join us over them. Seems he'll have an int team mate likely coming with him, and we're a team who look potentially on the rise, whilst Everton possibly you'd argue look set for a decline.

If they lose 1-2 key players, as seems likely, then I'd be very surprised if they weren't struggling. Seems like Heitinga probably wants to leave. Baines seems destined for Utd and Fellaini probably won't hang around either.

If not next season then probably the one after. Unless Everton start buying many new players they are going to have a team full of 30 something's and declining steadily.

I see Everton's training ground has just been sold to the city council and the club are now renting it from them.  Strikes me as a pretty tight state of affairs.

I agree I think Everton are going to have a tough couple of years ahead.

They have been, but Distin is getting on and Heitinga has not convinced. Only Jagielka could be called solid.

This is nuts. The ITK is in an open forum and should be easily traced.

In fact, I reckon I know from whom some of this is coming and they are being less judicious than they used to be with sharing it.

I get why but perhaps have backed the wrong horses on the business of being more open with it.

Ah, fuck it. That was cryptic and I don't care. Those ITK, that know what I was party to ITK and why I don't do so much ITK, who know that some pals of mine are even more ITK and trust them, they will agree.

I can't believe its not butter.

Kenwright will be plying his trade back on the street to try and get them a few quid to spend at this rate :)

Sale and leasebacks are nearly always done for one reason only and that is cash generation - just had their manager leave without compo yet paid out for a new one - whilst the sum was modest in premier league terms is likely still an outflow they wouldn't have budgetted and even the most optimistic must be expecting lower league finishes going forward which will reduce income further - definitely choppy waters ahead for them

PS If we sign Okore can we do a song along the lines of That's Amore?

When, he, goes through your back
With a fucking great hack, THAT'S OKORE!

When he's nodding one in
Like a short Niall Quinn
THAT'S OKORE!

When he covers for Vlaar
And hits you like a car
THAT'S OKORE!.....
