Guest Guinness Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 BBC: "Everton are also poised to pay £5m for Wigan's Leighton Baines after Newcastle admitted defeat in the transfer battle." Seems more likely after the recent news regarding Enrique. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would we go after Baines when we've almost completed the transfers of Dragutinovic and Enrique? We have our top class experienced left back and top class young left back sorted right there. There's no need for Baines.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Toon83 Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 I think Baines may move to Everton because of his family ties to merseyside and due to the fact that his wife has just given birth and is apparently not to keen to uproot and move up north.

Teasy Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 We've had a bid accepted according to who though? Allardyce?, Newcastle?, Wigan? Until I hear concrete confirmation I'll take this as press nonesense. We don't need 4 left backs... I mean do you think he has some kind of bizarre left back fetish or what?

PCW1983 Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Skysports.com understands Wigan ace Leighton Baines is in talks with Everton and Newcastle. Wigan have given permission to Baines to talk to both clubs after they accepted undisclosed bids from their Premiership rivals for the talented full-back. The Latics have reluctantly agreed to let Baines move as they look to get their squad in place for the start of the new season next weekend. Baines has attracted the interest of a host of clubs with Sunderland failing to persuade him to move to the Stadium of Light after having a fee accepted for his services last month. Everton are in the market for a new left-back with Joleon Lescott being played out of position in the role last season. Newcastle boss Sam Allardyce admitted on Friday that he could make a move for Baines as he looks to reshape his defensive options at St James' Park. Baines is set to meet both clubs to discuss a possible move and the defender is expected to make a decision on his future over the weekend. It is believed Everton are favourites to land Baines ahead of Newcastle because the player is a Toffees fan and would love the chance to play for his boyhood heroes http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12040_2640553,00.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 I think Sam has shown he understands the importance of a squad of equally-talented players. Look at the signing of Smith to add to Viduka, Martins, Owen, Ameobi and Carroll. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
