Hi ed. If Mina goes to Lyon ed slightly disappointed if he does would you expect us to go back in for Ben Gibson who you've mentioned a few times this summer? Haven't seen much of him since Boro went down and don't know if he'd suit. Think with the new style, we need a ball playing centre half and I'm not sure either way if Gibson can. Cheers mate.

{Ed002's Note - I think it would be a reasonable assumption.}

Is there any other centre backs of interest to the club if we have cooled on Vida mate?

{Ed002's Note - Ben Gibson remains of interest. There are also plenty available for loan.}

If it's true he said he'd rather play for Lyon then we should immediately look elsewhere.
We need to sign players with a desire to play for us!
Don't offer more money or higher wages, just find players that want to pull on the blue shirt.
I think this season will hinge on players who have a desire and willingness to play for Everton fc.
It's going to be a long, slow process to rebuild our great club and we need players who are committed through desire not money.
Just my opinion but we need to see 100% effort from players rather than players using us as a pay day or stepping stone.

{Ed025's Note - i totally agree pauly mate..
