Ed002, if everton enquired about Doucoure last summer, and the rumours are true we have enquired this week, can we assume that he is purely a Marcel Brands target? Also is the 'apparent' interest in the Watford player a case of cultivating other options as we are no nearer to signing Allan from Napoli, what are the chances of signing both?

{Ed002's Note - Doucoure would be a great solution for Everton going forward and would be a choice of the management and scouting structure. Allan makes far less sense and would be a player Carlo Ancelotti wants.}

I agree Ed, he has played in the Premier league for a few years now, is a bit younger than Allan, and all round I am guessing he would be cheaper.

Ok so Allan would probably cost a bit more and is 2 years Older and has never played in the prem. but don’t kid yourself he’s a class above doucoure. Who isn’t great on the ball, technically nothing special. But needs must and we need some real physical presence in the middle of the park. Hopefully we can get them both and with Gbamin it’s 3 powerful players to cover the 2 midfield positions.
