DcFc Dyycheee Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Everton boss Roberto Martinez is keeping a close watch on Derby midfielder George Thorne. The Spaniard sees Thorne as an ideal long-term replacement for Gareth Barry and will continue to monitor the player’s progress in the East Midlands. Everton are one of four Premier League clubs tracking the 22-year-old, including Norwich, Crystal Palace and Newcastle, where his former Derby gaffer Steve McClaren is now in charge. McClaren took the former England youth international to the iPRO Stadium 18 months ago for around £2.5million after he shone on a six-month loan spell from West Brom. Thorne’s progress has stalled through a series of injuries, sustained over a couple of seasons. This season, however, he has come back much stronger and his form has earned him a string of admirers. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/everton-one-four-premier-league-7073322 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Vegas Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 And so it begins... Everton is a bit of a strange one though. They've got Besic and Gibson as alternatives, and they'll no doubt eye another one in the summer and would find better value from abroad. He does play a very similar role though. Dropping between the CBs in possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Vegas Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 It's only linked reports anyway. I'm sure half the Premier League are monitoring a couple of our players. It would take an eight-figure fee for us to sell Thorne. Nobody will offer that much, not until he's had a season in the Premier League and stayed clear of injury for a while.

SouthernRam Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 An absolutely pivotal component to the team - no reason to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Only a matter of time before our players are linked to higher clubs, if they weren't then we wouldn't be doing well. I trust Mel and Sam to not sell one of our best players halfway through the season though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiddingsRam Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Need to take this as a compliment ! We've got no reason to sell , if a ridiculous offer came in i imagine it would be considered but regardless of how vital you are I'm afraid every player has a price tag !

Ram a lamb a ding dong Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 No Chairman in his right mind would fork out big bucks for an injury prone player. Only if he gets through this season unscathed wouldhe/ the board be willing to sanction a bid. Also there is no way on earth MM will allow this nonesense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irobinson Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 inevitable noise about GT - and if Will H was fit - his name would be banded about as well - both the right age profile and our two best players (McClaren would love both of them!) can't see him leaving in January - GT wants and will play in the premiership - hopefully with us......

Rev Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 The fact that he dropped from the Premier league to play for us, then spoke of his relief that he was injured here, rather than at West Brom suggests he won't have his head turned easily. They should try Eustace instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
