I agree with your general view but I have one small issue. Varane isn't old and he is younger than Maguire.
Claudio Bravo, Luis Enrique & Simone Davies it is then. Interesting choices.
I think you have this misconception in your head that pace is all you need in order to be able to play in a high-line defense, but if you don't have it, it's a no go.
The situation they are in means that they'd have to seriously consider an offer of £40/50 million.
Another problem will come when, I expect, he goes to the Euros in the summer with England. Once you become and England international it raises your profile. And he’s an obvious choice in a position England are light in, he’s basically next in line.

That corrupt hoody
Not a chance with Everton’s situation. If he wants to come to us and nobody else then a Everton really can’t turn down a reasonable bid. It isn’t a cattle mart, he’ll go where he wants to
I loved seeing thisThat corrupt hoody
and wondered why they showed him, is it the father? If they dont get relegated, then upwards in the £80m - £100m range.
Carlisle.
Ahhh yeah, should have clocked it from the navy advert!
Stones went for £50m odd didn't he, seven years ago?
But they potentially need to raise funds quick? And you would think LFC and City (Ake, Gvardiol, Stones, Dias, Akanji) is no-go?
Would it not make far more sense the other way round due to FFP?
Bravo, Suarez and Zaza? Terrible signings!
We should be the ones concerned with selling Onana.
Oh yeah but I just think that in terms of players wanting to stay, it's more likely Jarrad would give us another year than Onana.
Ah ok, fair enough. I hope you keep both to be honest. I like what Dyche has started to build.
Me too of course but I think it's unlikely. Will probably be another summer where we need to sell one or two of our higher asset players to balance books. Even more so if the worst happens...
Well he's taller and quicker than Maguire and he's both footed.
both are right at 6'4, 6'5.....quicker than Maguire, is that really a complement?
I mean your post started out saying you weren't sure if he'd bring anything different than Maguire and then spoke about multiple attributes...and he is taller, he is quicker and he's so good with either foot that coaches debate about which is his dominant (right or left). Personally I also think he's capable of stepping up his ball-playing too. Not to a John Stones extente but enough that he can fit into the top modern sides.both are right at 6'4, 6'5.....quicker than Maguire, is that really a complement?
two footed is certainly important as i do see he plays as the LCB for Everton
that's the most important thing right there simply because Varane, Maguire and Lindelof struggle plahing on the left side because they just can't or won't use their left foot to play from the back unless under pressure and that results in them just hoofing the ball long
If they get relegated - which I hope they dont as they dont deserve it - you can probably go down to £30 million
The amount of teams interested & I suspect there will quite a few will determine the final price.
Yeah we simply have to bring in a CB who is comfortable playing out. The drop off when Licha is missing is too big across a full season
