Why is he coming though? Is it to partner Scott Dann or to replace him?

In years gone by that may have been the case , but it is no longer!!! We are an ambitious club now , with the funds to back it up.

Thanks to the football gods, we are not a selling club now....

It's not a matter of being a selling club but keeping a player who is unhappy and if Everton do make a substantial bid for Scott Dann and he wants to go it may not be in our best interests to force him to stay.

Having said that, I hope that it doesn't come to that

Must be to play alongside Dann with Delaney as cover?


I agree. It's one of the positions we needed to strengthen and, if Dann decides to go, then we'll need to sign two.

Looks like Everton will be losing Stones to Man C so will be looking for a replacement.

Dann of course hails from Liverpool and used to be a season ticket holder at the club. But Carragher and Owen were 'Evertonians' and of course went on to play for Liverpool !

We released Hangeland & Mariappa. We have Kelly as versatile defensive cover. Pretty sure we'll sign 2 CB's.

Damo isn't getting any younger so the need for a younger premier league centre back is a must.

not saying Damo is finished but we need competition for places.

Everton we're in for Dann last year , under a different manager!!! Dann then signed a new contract despite the Interest , we have then now acted quickly and very ambitiously in the transfer market , he's going nowhere and is clearly happy.

My housemate is a huge Spammers fan and he wants them to keep him. Supposedly very versatile, strong, good in the air with the ability to chip in with our goal tally. Personally I would like him to replace Damo, as I would like to see us utilise the long ball less this season, bringing the wingers/midfield more into play.

As a previous caller said when Everton were interested this time last year Dann signed a new contract! He's since played in an FA Cup final and is a shoe in to be captain next season if Jedinak leaves!
Plus Everton have changed managers and there is nothing to say Koeman would even want him!

I think the worry with Dann is Tomkins is a similar player and nother sure the most effective way to play them is together. Hope I am wrong

Don't we want them to play a similar game then? I'm not sure that similar players fighting over the same ball, that sometimes happens in midfield and upfront, applies to central defenders.
