Heard that we could be signing Croatian forward Mandzucki, would be great with him and Jelavic up front. Would be decent :)

Didn't he play guitar with The Doors? {Ed025's Note - nice one..

And Jim Morrison from West Brom would be good as well.

Not big news but everton first deal this summer will be eric dier who has been on loan for the last two years , the center back has impressed for the academy with his pairing with hammer (before his injury)

Would be happy to see this happen but do you have a source.

Article from the Daily Mirror today:

Everton to catch Euro Star-

Everton are trailing Croatia striker Mario Mandzukic-and could land him for a bargain £7 million.
The Croatian is one of the stars of Euro 2012 so far with three goals and could be paired with ten-mate Nikica Jelavic at Goodison.
Mandzukic is also on the radar of other Premier League clubs because he is available from Wolfsburg at what is considered a "fair" price.
The 26 year old was signed by Steve McClaren, a friend of Everton No.2 Steve Round, for £6m and has two years left on his contract.
Everton have watched Mandzukic at the Euros but were also interested in him two years ago when he played for Dinamo Zagreb.
His partnership with Jelavic at international level is thriving and it could be rekindled on Merseyside.

Would absolutely love this to happen Ed, but i think he might be out of our price range. Him and Jelavic would be a forced to be reckoned with. What are your thoughts Ed?

Jay EFC {Ed025's Note - i think his price will go up every game jay..and this will put him out of our range mate..

I think this is just lazy journalism. Jelavic plays for Everton and Croatia, Mandzukic plays for Croatia, so lets get him to Everton as well

They are far too similar, every ball played in so far, they both have jumped for, they are not a partnership. Plus because he has scored 3 goals, Spurs and Newcastle are bound to want him and offer more money. JP

TThe last reply to this post, is very well put, with a couple of really good realistic points that I totally agree with, someone who actually talks sense!...

With this board, not bloody likely!

So do they toss a coin to see which one sits on the bench as we continue playing 4-5-1?

Everton are trailing Croatia striker Mario Mandzukic - and could land him for a bargain £7million.

The Croatia hitman, one of the stars of Euro 2012 so far with his three goals in two games, could be paired with team mate Nikica Jelavic at Goodison Park.

Mandzukic is on the radar of other Premier League sides too, because he is available at a “fair” price from his German club, Wolfsburg.

The 26-year-old was signed by Wolfsburg's then-coach Steve McClaren - a friend of Everton boss David Moyes' No2 Steve Round - for £6million and has two years left on his contract.

Everton were also interested in him two years ago, when he played for Dinamo Zagreb, and have had Mandzukic watched during the Euros.

His partnership with Jelavic at international level is thriving and could be rekindled on Merseyside.
Where's the money coming from? is there something we don't know ed?

Work with someone who says they know Alan Stubbs. Stubbs says he has been told when moyes does go he will be offered the managers job. Also vehemently disagrees with moyes imposing his 451 formation throughout the clubs youth levels and reserves etc.
