    Having seen him get given a good run around by Bournemouth's Elliot Ward (signed on a free from Norwich after 7 prem appearances) a couple of weeks ago, I have to ask - is Robbo mad?

    If they hadn't landed Lukaku this would have been an utterly desperate window for Everton. Nearly £20m spent on players from a side relegated with their new manager in charge. If he doesn't score 20+ goals then it wouldn't surprise me to see them in the bottom six.

    When you think about the players he could have got for that money...

    Although I think West Brom absurdly overpaid for Sessegnon.

    Isnt he one of our former targets ?

    Is this the lad that Judas was bringing to us and had reeves scout when being at Swansea , only to sign him for Wigan ?

    Im sure its the same player, the Swans scouted him and Roberto took him to wigan on our buck, see, that's why the bloke will always be a judas to me,shafted us every single way he could even though we took him off the scrap heap and gave him a job.

    £13m ? crazy money but so is £15m for joe allen, £5m for shelvey etc all player prices are way over the top for what they have actually done in the game.

    David Villa was £12m quid so that tells how daft prices are these days .

    Bit over the top, but Martinez has to stamp his identity on Everton, Fellaini gone and two ex Wigan players in, only time will tell!
