Branthwaite is definitely going to be a top player, he just doesn't fit into our squad right now. We are at least 1 defender short but he's playing every week at everton at 21, none of our central defenders are old enough to be on the decline and possibly be shipped out soon so unless another has asked to leave he's not yet good enough to play ahead of any of our defenders. would cost a hell of a lot of money to be 6th choice for us.
we have far more important areas to strengthen. He'd be one that if we had the cash sitting there you pay decent money but not top money for and leave at their current club for a year to get in before he breaks out. I think we're a few months too late on that though now that he's established at everton.
Pretty much any of the other top 6 should be throwing money at everton for him if there's even a chance of getting him. He instantly walks into uniteds 11. Spurs' 11, newcastles 11.
