    I'm guessing 6,000 and that is a guess. Only the East and West stands were open with gaps but still a decent turnout considering it was on the TV

    Looked like about 7000 to me, west stand was packed while the east stand was part full, good game yesterday, my MOTM was Routledge who looked like a new signing, very impressed with his roll at no 10 ..............<ok>

    Ayew for me is a very hard worker, and is great as pressing and closing down the opposition. However, I don't see any real creative quality in him, whether setting goals up or shooting at goal.

    He's like a wing back.

    The thing for me valley is if Bony comes back and starts scoring like crazy again ( which I think he will ) , we can sell him off to another top spending club .

    Disagree. If this were to happen, we won't be in a mess next year when Abraham goes back to Chelsea and Llorente leaves/retires.

    If we sign Bony and his form returns, we should keep him for 2-3 seasons. We need some stability upfront.

    Is it win, win though? We'd be potentially losing 3 strikers all at once with that scenario.

    CLOSE ON GYLFI

    Ronald Koeman says Everton are “close” to completing a deal for Swansea midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson.

    The Iceland international has been linked with a move to Goodison Park all summer, with both the Toffees and Leicester having had £40m bids rejected by Swansea, who value the player at £50m.

    "Everybody knows we are looking for three more players - a left centre-back, a left full-back, a player who can play out of both positions, a winger and a striker and that's the picture, what the best is for our team and we will see what we can do," Koeman told Sky Sports News.

    "We are close [on Sigurdsson], we have to wait. But still, the deal is not done."

    Any truth in the rumour Everton are interested in Siggy?

    Not sure, but Virgil van Dijk has handed in a transfer request. Not a happy bunny. Perhaps that will be Siggy's next move to break the deadlock...
