I think Stones is suffering from 'Soldtocityitis'Some reporting that Jagielka and Stones will miss the pre season game v Barnsley.
Saying Jagielka is his hamstring but Everton won't specify what the injury to Stones is.
Sorry..........won't specify either.
If it is 59.5m i hope it is from april 1st not july 1st
I don't know how Everton are looking at more money then they was wanting last year. Stones has had a very poor season and yet they think his value increased.
Not sure they asking any more mate. They turned down a 40mil bid last summer from Chelsea, so they always had a 45-50mil valuation of the player. With the new TV money coming in, it looks like everyone is having to pay more this year...the money being thrown around is just crazy but this is now the market for top players in the prem and deals that might look like "overpaying" in the past, now look like they becoming the norm.
I agree, but unfortunately I don't agree that Stones is a top player, he's far from it right now. He lost his place at Everton last season, and rightly so. He also couldn't make the England starting eleven during the Euros, and in my opinion he was up against the two poorest centre backs England have played in a major tournament for many years. I would expect a 45-50 million player to be a regular at both club and country. 30 million for him would be about right in todays crazy market.Not sure they asking any more mate.

Chelsea have already seen a £20m bid for the England international rejected by Everton, with manager Roberto Martinez voicing his anger at how the Blues made their pursuit of the player public.
