Yeah I think he's a Guardiola-type defender, and he's young enough to improve other areas. If a manager like Guardiola spends that kind of money on a young player then he must have faith in him. Mourinho was also willing to spend a similar amount of mo
The strange thing is, he is simply not a good defender. |

I think he'll do alright there. Whatever his faults are, he is good on the ball and Guardiola likes that sort of CB. At Barca and Bayern he had to resort to converting Mascherano and Javi Martinez to get that type of defender.
He's a talented player who could be very good with the right coaching. |

i never claimed that at all
I claimed he would cost £120m in total, and when its shaken down today it looks like i was very accurate. £89m plus the £20m fees plus the £5m add ons. His wages are around Three Hundred Thousand pounds a week. Juventus are paying the agent fees which is an outstanding bit of negotiating from Woodward. Im sure it doesnt need mentioning that your figures from this to the crazy £290million claim are very wrong. |

Is every transfer from here in going to be met with disbelief and derision?
The transfer prices have been hugely inflated, get used to it. Bolasie is a very good player and an exciting signing for Everton. |

Bolasie has only scored 9 goals in 3 Premier League seasons. The stats aren't exactly favorable.

£30 million maybe vastly overpaying...but on the plus side Bolaise has been known to cause both Liverpool and Everton problems, so that makes it ideal..stops him from causing us problems, and causes problems for our red neighbours.
The transfer fees have been crazy this summer. I wonder if they will settle down and this season is more of a one off tbh? |

IM not sure about Stones.
He clearly has a bit of talent on the ball and if he learns the defensive side of the game he could be a very very good centre back. Im not sure id be spending 50million on a player that still needs work in defence though. You can get away with it further up the pitch as any mistakes can be dealt with by the rest of the team. A defensive mistake though costs you goals. |

The problem is that having sold Stones the selling clubs know you have money and will take advantage.

Bolasie is a 1 in 5 player. Has a decent game and then does nothing for weeks.
