In all seriousness, we should make sure a friend or relative is keeping an eye on him.

Oh Neil, 1878 - this is tragic news. My condolences to all Everton supporters. 2 years and 4 months......for Darron Gibson

Anything below £1m and we've got to be in there. There's a good chance an Arsenal or a Spurs will be in there, but it's worth a try.

I wonder if a Spurs or Chelsea intend on bidding. They'll probably see it as a gamble worth taking, like us.

Balazs Dzsudzsak has left Anzhi to join Dynamo Moscow for 15m euros.

To be honest, if we can get some quality British youngsters like Clyne, Morrison and Rhodes I'd be pretty pleased. We were also linked with those kids at Sheff Utd and Brighton. Zaha is way too expensive, mind.

3 bonus points It's just a parody of itself now! I'm not sure which cheap striker to bring in: Yakubu, Long (but slightly injured), Helguson, Leon Best or even Simon Cox (might not start).

Shaqiri and Morrison.....oh my. Morrison is a little shit, but there's an exceptional talent in there. It's a risk I would take. And Shaqiri is surely destined for bigger things, but would absolutely love him here.

I'm more likely to put Obertan in Get Odemwingie instead.Have a feeling he's about to come into some form. I'd prefer to but can't afford him. Think he's an extra 1.5m

Freiburg still bottom of the league? Can't decide if that would help us or not. He's the one to get them out of trouble, but his fee can strengthen the squad.

By the way, is Shane Long injured? He's not done well for a while but West Brom's fixtures are fantastic.

I'd like Ba to rest on the bench for a month while Cisse, Niang and Sow get them to the final. Then he comes on, gets the winner (the glory) and comes back refreshed in a contract-signing mood.

My brother has finally overtaken me thanks to Bale/Adebayor doing nothing again and Captain Friedel's double clean sheet. FFS.

We stacking up on De Jongs now? Is this the 'conquering demons' part of Hatem's rehab?

Onuoha is one of those no-brainers that we won't end up bidding for.

"And you, sir, are a wheeler dealer"

Vorm, Mignolet Smalling, Kompany, Enrique, Senderos, Santon Bale, Silva, Valencia, Sessegnon, Ben Arfa Van Persie, Adebayor, Yakubu/Long/Helguson ....is what I'm going for. Sturridge can come in if Smalling goes to Evans and Senderos to Kelly, but I don't fancy that.

Very encouraging developments today

Shame for the lad Hopefully this strengths our case for a new striker.

Well I know it's unlikely he'll go, but it's the idea that they're trying to unsettle us. If it's not Ba, it's Tiote. If it's not Tiote, it's Krul. Just a bit annoyed by it now.

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/4052063/Transfer-news-Newcastle-price-Tim-Krul-at-15million.html Wish the media would just stop it. Every day they're trying to get someone away from us. Just. Fuck. Off.

The idea of buying him for £25m less is tempting, but the fact is we can get much better players for that £10m.

He's not even worth £15m. Nowhere near.

Although why would they 'approach' if theres a release clause? They'd just make the bid.
