I did feel sad/pissed-off reading about Chelsea's bid for Gordon, a floppy-haired kid with plenty of talent but showing it for his hometown club. On the back of their purchase of Chuck, the whole thing just feels rigged. And I know we do it at a lower level.

Why bother holding any player close to your heart when the vultures will pluck them as soon as they start paying attention they deem half-decent?

I know what you mean, but Everton are in a weak position to resist as a result of their own incompetence.

Will Gordon be the new Franny Jeffers if he moves south.

Jeffers had a lot more on his CV than Gordon at the time of his move. So had Ross Barkley. Both spectacular flops and careers in free fall pretty quickly afterwards. Everton have a new stadium to pay for that must require PL status to service the debt. Sell Gordon who has little more than potential from what I can see and get in some decent forwards might be a better bet for survival.

Chelsea appear to be in a last minute shopping dash buying anyone and everyone this summer. Like how would Chucky even get a sniff of an appearance up against maybe de Jong, Kovacic, Kante, Jorginho, Mount....he won't. Such a vile business model, stockpile these lads and loan them out for fees around Europe.

Pretty obvious Chucks agent has been sold a pup. He’s getting nowhere near the first team anytime soon but I bet they said he would.  This is money men making money

CC is well and truly in for a rough road ahead.. Chelsea looks to have agreed a deal for Cesare Casadei (CM, 19 y/o) from Inter.

We're being linked with Callum Hudson-Odoi. Nor sure about this one. Seems an odd signing and is he even that good? What makes him better than Bertie?

Cant see it - we dont play wingers. 

I wouldnt be surprised if we end up with conor gallagher, but not sure if he is actually any better than what we have. 

Pulisic wants out - I could get onboard with that

Gallagher looks a good player to me.

Hudson Odoi could be very good with decent run of games.

I really don't want Rob Holding

Fekir would be an interesting addition

He's not a bad player really but whether we need him is another thing.

I've only skimmed the thread, so apologies if this is old news, but have we been linked with Fekir?

First I’ve heard about Fekir, can’t see that with Buendia and Coutinho  on board. If there’s any truth in Forrest after Aouar that could be worth a look.

As long as he doesn't bring Delph back with him.

Yes, one Fekir would be quite enough.
