All this talk of Baines and Felli leaving got me thinking. Some will disagree but I have to say Felli is replaceable to a degree, I think we play around Felli when he plays and so we might need to slightly change our play but he is replaceable.
Baines is pretty much non replaceable and we would be foolish to try. We would have to settle for a solid left back, there is no point trying to replace him, I believe he is the best english player in the premier league bar none. However a good left back would again not drastically change how we play, it would effect the number of assists coming down the left side and it would mean a quality set piece taker would be needed but both are do-able.
The one I would dread lossing the most is Jags. I think he is our leader and has been for years. He might not be a shouter but he is the leader of the pack the alpha male if you will. He is class on and off the pitch, there is not a single english centre back out there with his personality, he makes Everton a classy club, he is honest, hard working, full of quality and humble. So I would not be suprised if the one Moyes came back for was Jags, Rio is done, Vidic injury prone and the others are young and inexperienced. Jags also said he understood Moyes as if Utd come calling you don't turn them down.

I hope i'm wrong, I hope all 3 stay but for me I think the one we will lose if Jags for around 10mill and we might really suffer more than we think with his depature.

We have played well when felli has been injured/banned, he is replacable
