I'd bin Otter with immediate effect to bring in Stones.
Stones and the Otter (assuming no Vinnie). Both will be brilliant under Pep.

The last time I asked, money wasn't an issue. It isn't coming out of our pockets, despite what people might think about the impact it will have on ST prices. Why give a shit if it is £15M or £50M? I just don't get it. It's just a big number to go with all the other big numbers.
Everyone I hear talking about John Stones except for the people on here say he is a good player, a good prospect, would be a good signing. OK he had a poor season last year, but didn't Everton as a whole? Didn't most of our players as well?
I have this feeling that Guardiola knows what he is doing. I don't know why. I hope I am right. He has clearly given it some thought and it is his view that signing Stones is a good idea. He gets paid £2M a year to take those decisions so let's give him a bit of leeway.

I'm already pondering who we'll replace him with in 2017.

"It's the same answer for Sane -- he's a player for Everton. Everyone knows we're going to try but we will see."

Because it's an English player, playing for a slightly shite PL club, everyone's up in arms.

Still need a decent CM and striker.
