A free transfer available from Everton
Pace to burn pre injury worth a punt?

I'd take him on a free. Even if he has lost some pace, he'll still be faster than the rest of our squad. Desperately lacking an outlet on the right. Desperately lacking anything on the right.

When was the last time he played with any regularity and when was his last good game? If he was the player from Palace a good few years ago, it would be a resounding yes from me. However, as things stand, we’ve more than our quota of injury prone wingers.

We need someone that’s got pace and power, a touch of quality and a willingness to work for the team, without the ball.

Think I’d prefer Osayi-Samuel - younger, low release clause, lower wages, lots to work with

QPR have been desperate to sell him to a Premier League club but the only interest has come from the Championship.

Why have they been desperate? Finances?

we need a younger squad, the last player we signed who had hardly played any football went really well - Drinkwater.

Looks like he's heading to Turkey.

Bolasie drawing interest from Turkish clubs

Alistair Magowan

BBC Sport

Everton winger Yannick Bolasie has been told by boss Carlo Ancelotti that there is no room in the squad for the 31-year-old.

As a high earner, his departure would help trim the wage bill, and I'm told there is interest from clubs in Turkey.

Bolasie, who joined Everton in 2016, has suffered from injury problems, and spent last season on loan at Sporting Lisbon.

Not what we needed anyway, we've already got enough players north of 30.
