No way will we pay more for Drinkwater than what we paid for Bakayoko. No chance, £25m imo and we are leaving the rest to Drinkwater to push for a move.

This seems most likely the strategy. If he wants a move then he needs to make an effort, if not then we shouldn't over spend.

City offered 18m for Johnny Evans. 40 for Danny ain't so bad

Will be interesting if we go head to head with City on Evans, after all, that's apparently the model we should be following.

 

Rather have signed Gareth Barry on a free.

He cost £1m but that's £1m for a centre circle statue...

To be fair if you watch closely he moves towards the ball if it passes where he is standing 

Is Drinkwater injured? He's not even on the Leicester bench today.

Probably Chelsea bound. Didn't mind the signing, but watching RLC tear it up and knowing we're signing someone with less talent, stings a bit.

Looks like our latest offer of £30m has been rejected...thankfully...Leicester are hanging out for £40m...joke...move on for Christ sake...

RLC needs a season at a premier league club. He can’t always be a bench player. 

40m for him is a ripoff. There has to be better quality elsewhere that costs half as much

Good player, but not worth what they are asking for him, rip off prices,, again

Anthony Conte is interested in signing Everton star Idrissa Gueye if Chelsea fail to complete a deal for England international Danny Drinkwater.

Another defensive mid ?

Would be fantastic cover for Kanté but Everton would never sell him - they have no replacement for their midfield.

What make him think he buy main man of Everton when he not buy main from City of Leicester?  Wā.

Drink water is good.

Better than drink goat urine.

True, the positive thing is he gets to showcase his talent at Palace.

Do we need a second Kante though ? I think we need someone who's decent defensively but also gives us something going forward.

It will never happen anyway, Everton will not sell what is possibly their most important player this late into the window.

Yes. Why they sell big player? Mighty ant have place of Gueye. Chelsea need man that sing more. Not man that shout.
