    True unless they get him on loan from their owner's other club which seems unlikely I guess.

    Don't think anyone else is out of contract now.

    Lot seems to run out next year or in 2024 - Cleverley, Cathcart, Sema.

    They will be nearing the end of their careers pace wise although Sema never really had much pace

    I think people are asking why did they get an extended contract in the first place !

    Because they are dependable and loyal, unlike some who have just rode into the sunset

    That is true and sure some will do a fine job in the Championship

    if people feel we don't replace older players well then fair enough but that isn't their fault.

    We need the right balance between the older experienced players who can keep their heads and young exciting players who do not yet know when to take their time and be patient

    If Rob Edwards can get that balance right and plays attacking football we could be in for a repeat of the Pozzos first season in charge which all of us enjoyed with perhaps a better ending

    Watford and Nigeria striker Emmanuel Dennis, 24, is among Everton's list of targets as they look to replace 25-year-old Brazil forward Richarlison, who has joined Tottenham for £60m. (Evening Standard)

    That will be at least £50m then

    Probably be about 20 million but they do like to over pay on players!

    Did well at League One level but struggled more in a struggling POSH side last season .

    Maybe the next Deeney though !?

    Jonson Clarke-Harris will be 28 years old later this month. Not one for the future!

    No that is true - and as I say not totally proven at Championship level or above at all if the plan is to get promoted.

    Sounds as if the transfer talks between Watford and Everton may have stalled as Everton do not want to pay the £15M that WFC are asking for Dennis.

    Seems to be some doubt about how true it is but think we are looking for that much and well Everton do like to over pay for players!

    I guess he's only worth what others are willing to pay - but if that doesn't meet our valuation, we're under no obligation to sell yet. If we don't, he may well go into an even bigger sulk and refuse to perform to his ability, get dropped and languish on the bench, stopping his chances of more international appearances.

    That's football today - such a tangled web...

    I agree. He may not be seen as worth £20m to Watford fans, but to buy a player like him, clubs would surely be expected to spend that much on a proven Premiership goalscorer. “If he is fed properly, who knows what he could do?” style argument.
