Trippier? The guy is 35. Seriously I hope this is a joke.

Me too.

Rather take Stones (if he drops wages significantly) as can play RB, CB and defensive midfield.

Course he is 35, but fit as a fiddle as they all are at that age, at that level. Depends on length of contract, how much, and wages.

They're not though. The lad has had his peak years and is now in decline. This is not my idea of building for the future.

Course they are, their phys stats would give you a stroke.

Me yes but not the Premiership. I can only hope our new owners have more ambition than some of our supporters.

Stones has missed loads of matches in the last few years at City, and I feel he would not be much of an asset to us given his unreliability.
No doubt he is a classy player, but would not come cheap.
Surprised he was included in the England squad, given lack of game time at City this season.
Tripper I think would be a good squad player, given he can fill either full back role.

Stones is a strange decision for us and England 'reliability because of injury', but like Tuchel perhaps Everton are looking at his ability at FB DM and CB.
