Gerard Deulofeu

[SB]

They're absolutely right. I can confirm that Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea, Liverpool and Everton are indeed a number of English clubs. Five, to be precise.

To be honest I've not seen a great deal of people overhyping Alberto at all. Not sure many of us expect him to go straight into the first team etc and not many people have seen him play much, if at all. Its just naturally exciting to see us linked with and signing young players or a particular calibre / profile and there's nothing wrong with that at all imo.

Barcelona winger Gerard Deulofeu (19) will almost certainly join an English team on loan. Tottenham and Everton are the two options. [md]

Shame if true as he looked interesting

[Fosterbloke]

I'd still take him on loan. I bet he'd be great. I can see it working at Everton with a Spanish speaking manager.

[frank the tank]

we have a spanish speaking manager as well!!!

[Mostar]

At Everton he can actually get some playing time while with us and Spurs I cannot see it.

I'd be nice to have him as an option but not a big loss if we don't.

We should have gone for Dries Mertens.

Napoli got him for €9.5m...

****ing bargain that. He's class

Rodgers, meanwhile, has revealed he hopes to continue spending as he seeks to add to his squad. He has earmarked young Barcelona forward Gerard Deulofeu as a potential signing, and has made enquiries about taking the highly-rated 19-year-old on a season-long loan.

Absolutely.

I cannot believe that we missed out on him given more than modest price tag.

Do you not think that if we had inquired about him the price would have been higher. I suspect the selling clubs look closely at the buying club's ability to spend before they decide on a price?

Barcelona winger Gerard Deulofeu (19) is close to joining Everton on loan. His agent met Everton coach Roberto Martinez this week. [rac1]

Surely now we've missed out on Mkhitaryan we could try and poach this lad?

I think he's probably choosing them because he's been told he'll get games ?

Perhaps but I cannot see it being much higher.
