Has 7 goals and 4 assists, quick and a great engine. I don't know why none of the big teams have not tried to get this lad.

I think someone has suggested that Tierney at Celtic Might be worth a shout, despite Rodgers being the best manager in the world of course.

He certainly has got a good reputation up there, however it is a pub league and playing in the best team in the league by a country mile is not a great test each week.

I thought he looked alright against us. But I have seen him another time and it was less impressive.

He's certainly a better left back than Andy Robertson if that's any sort of guide.

He'll be at a top 6 English side next season one way or another.

As far as I understand quite a few PL clubs want him, it's either that he or Fulham are waiting for some reason. He's been rumoured to be leaving since the end of the summer.

Saw when he played against Norwich to see how Gunn was doing early in the season and he looked good.

I'd like him as well, but seems we aren't really front runners for his signature.

Supposedly Utd and I think Spurs have been the front runners.

We're banned from signing Sessegnon or anybody else from this country in that age group until the summer

Theo Walcott has just passed his medical re a £25million move to Everton.

I'm sure I read the other day that Wenger wanted him to stay at Arsenal, but it seems a lot of rats are now wanting to leave the sinking ship......but crikey, going to Everton shows a fair degree of desperation.

Ex Southampton player moving to Merseyside shocker.

Everton sign Walcott for 20m

Waste of money.

For an England international player that's quite reasonable, certainly better value than a £42mil Mangala

A duck egg is a duck egg regardless of the perceived value. Personally think Arsenal have mugged Everton to get £20M for Walcott. Regardless of the perceived value of other players.

Is he really that much better than Miralles, who they've just let go out on loan back to Greece? Or the lad they signed from Charlton, Lookman? Everton need a guy to score goals, that is not Walcott

Considering his game is all about speed and he is now 28, I wonder how long before he loses a step or worse yet, he is only one leg injury away from becoming Torres.

Villareal’s Cedric Bakambu (who?!) set for China move for 74m euros!

Crouch to Chelsea? Surely that's a joke.

Instead of Carroll

Are they desperate for average English players ala Roswell and Sinclair

sounds like a tall story to me

Now that Sanchez saga is off the radar I would love to see us sign a good defender.
But it all seems very quiet on that front.

Di Marzio says Chelsea are after Dzeko. A lot more credible than going after Crouch. Not clear whether Roma are interested.
