My colleague who's an Everton ST holder couldn't wait to get rid of him.  That tells me enough.

It's hard to take Everton fans seriously. Every time one of their players says they want to leave, they say they would be glad to be rid of them. I don't think for a second that Everton fans truly wanted rid of Stones, Barkley or Lukaku. If they want to break into the top 4, then they need to keep their top players, not sell them. I do think Stones is complete sh*te though so i can understand why they would be ok with him going.

Hold on, I forget to go on Google Translate and set the settings to "Honesty"
Now it reads:
"I WANTED TO LEAVE ON A FREE TO GET A MASSIVE PAY OUT BECAUSE I DON'T GIVE A f**k ABOUT MY REPUTATION OR MY CLUB"

I seem to remember her saying it about Lukaku and Barkley in the middle of last season though not just in close season.  She never rated Lukaku - was frustrated by his inconsistency and poor first touch as well as his laziness.  I really don't think it was when they wanted to leave she was talking about being glad to see the back of them.  But I may be wrong.  

 
To be fair is the grass not always greener on the other side? Pretty sure that is the mindset they are taking in to it.

 
Where would he get in regarding the Spurs midfield though? And look at what Conte did for Pogba, took raw talent and made him an important part of the Juve team. I still think he's got the talent to be a top player with the right guidance.

 
If we can get him for what he's worth come January...around £8m...then he's worth taking a punt at but my instinct is that he's holding out for a Spuds contract because apparently them and the Dippers are the best places to go for young English talent...err good luck lads

 
Interesting input from Joey Barton though I'd take it with a grain of salt. Still, if it's true, it puts a new twist on the situation.

He said: "I heard a really interesting thing about what happened with the Ross Barkley transfer. Conte turned his phone off and Barkley's representatives were trying to contact him.

"He wanted to say 'look, where am I going to play', and Conte turned his phone off. That is why Barley got cold feet and never signed.

"He thought, 'well, if the manager isn't answering the phone to me he clearly doesn’t want me', and that is why he went back to Everton."

I very much doubt Barton know's anything about the deal.  He sensationalises everything about himself and now add the fact he works for TalkSport I would say that's almost doubled!

I can't see Conte turning his phone off when we're trying to sign a player considering how much he has stated he want's more players!

Joey Barton is a know nothing moron that lives in a fantasy land, so ignore literally everything he says in that article.

I can see why, could take over the Fab role and attack at the right side.

But it's a huge gamble. What's the difference between him and RLC when he'll still be struggling for form when he comes in January?
