Jonny Evans

Just imagine what King Colin would fetch nowadays.

In all honesty I can't see him going for much more than Evans, I suspect he's lost a bit of his mobility.

Very true.

In the case of Stones, it should have been a no-brainer when he was at Barnsley. Sign him up, loan him back, save £40 mill down the line.

I'd also have gone for Robertson as the second left back and Maguire wasn't an unknown when Leicester picked him up.

I've got nothing against Evans, just don't think he's a good buy at the price we might end up paying.

We clearly needed another CB and I find it hard to understand why we left it to the Name Your Price stage of the window to deal with it.

I know it's not my money (although I've been priced out of Sky, who are part fuelling the craziness) but transfer fees are just getting beyond insanity, especially since Neymar.

Even a month ago any talk of Evans being a £25 mill player would have been deservedly met with cries of 'Nurse!'

But I guess I'm just getting old. I'm from the '£200k for Martin Peters!!!' Generation.

To quote a certain credit card advert: Priceless.

Steady on

I called my mate in Failsworth yesterday and asked him the same thing.
He said "I ordered two so we can both look like fucking twats".

So you reckon EVERYONE in the media/tv/radio want us to fail??

Pretty much most of them!

He's still got more than Matic!

Can you point to the post you made about signing Stones, before he signed for neverton,what with it being a no brainer and all that?
