I would play Renan at RB and get Dodo, star player for me, at LB ---------- Post added at 12:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:49 PM ---------- (but given the two options, I don't rate Richards, I like my FBs to provide attacking thrust, so I am a fan of Rafael)

One hopes it is the old "I don't want anyone (but really I do)" thing SAF sometimes plays. Bit worried though as he said much the same last year. We NEED: a GK (Hugo Loris, Akinfeev); an AM (please sign Gourcuff!) and a ST (Dzeko ideally, but doubt we would get him). IDEALLY also: ML/R, CB, RB...

I think it will be a big name established manager. As much as I quite like the idea of Moyes, I think the owners will have to appoint someone who has succeeded at the highest level, so I think Jose is the lock, which would be fun in some ways, but he plays a boring style.... However, there is...

Not a shock really, makes no sense for anyone to buy the club with that level of debt and infrastructure. Feel sorry for the fans though, such a badly run club. Icarus flew too close to the sun, it smote him down and he crashed back to earth...

Thats great, look forward to reading it :-)

None? :(

Club: I am Everton Level: Premier League Position: RB Value: Any - The only position looking to buy in the off season Wages: Any Season: 4th (2012/13) Got Srna, who has at least another season at the top, but looking for a younger player to be back-up. At this point should I just look for regens?

No. Don't. Get Akinfeev or Ochoa, both not too expensive, both turn into pure class... The other great keepers will cost you a fortune

Cole will be on the plane because he is the best LB available, but that isnt enough time/match practise to get back in peak shape...

Never had either, but my scout loves Navas to bits...

Not sure immaturity has anything to do with it really. You can't blame him for hating Terry. And his presence means that the dressing room will be split between those who favour Terry and those who favour Bridge... Pretty much the only thing he could do...

Makes sense, though Akinfeev is great/ok at all of those apart from composure...

Yeah not one... :S Last time I one a penalty shootout was because they put one wide

Baines would be my choice. As for the Terry thing. Think that, internationally speaking, he is over-rated. He looks good on tv because he is always busy. However, England have few options at CB, and several players who can play LB...

He played in an entirely different position in his Porto days. And his main asset was his pace, which he seems to have lost last time he had a bad injury
