Out of curiosity what would happen in a player swap scenario something I think Manchester United are keen on... Each player is given a value (helps with FFP) for example let's say Man U swap Maguire, £50m , they would say that Maguire is worth £30m so add £30m into revenue for that year , then split £50m across 5 , so would them show as plus £20m in accounts . Everton would then say they gained £80m for Branthwaite their books , then split the Maguire £30m across the length of contract. Means each club can show a large net fee , which helps meet FFP targets.

The way I see it is that it's looking like we are going to do really well out of the potential deal. If he manages to get some game time at the Euros and performs well I think that could be the difference between £55/60M and £75/80M. So even if it's low ball and we only get 10% that's still £6M that can make a huge difference to a club like ours. We really are in a transformational period financially and all the work going on down at BP is fantastic, I really believe that whatever cash comes in from the sale and how it's received, it will be put to very good use by our owners. But will it be put to good use by Simpson & Abbott?

The biggest worry for me is the state that Everton finds themselves in. Sounds like Kenwright mortgaged them up to the hilt and they’ve put themselves further into debt with loans from this 777 group, who now look unlikely to take over. Sounds like most Everton fans have resigned themselves to losing Branthwaite but given their financial position I just hope it doesn’t end up in a fire sale. £80m could soon become £40-50m if the vultures pounce.

A couple of the founders of 777 have just resigned, as their airline business has just collapsed and the Belgian FA are after them, so any sale to them is looking dodgy. The worry is, Everton owe approx £200m to 777, which was to be transferred to shares once the purchase of the club was complete. If the sale collapses and they call in the debt, it could create a fire sale, which would reduce the fee demanded for any player sales.

You also have to deduct what we have been paid already, for appearances etc, which I believe is circa £2m That’ll be deducted from the transfer fee, not the % amount. That's correct, sorry my post was a bit ambiguous

No Stones or Maguire tonight for England, media predicting that it will be Guehi & Dunk who will start. Personally I think it's a perfect opportunity to start JB and I will be disappointed if he doesn't, a far better option than Dunk, technically better, statistically better and has a great relationship with Pickford. However Southgate seems to a really rate Dunk. If JB doesn't get minutes tonight I doubt he will get a place in the Euro squad.

I thought that at first, then I wondered if Southgate is looking at potential pairings in the friendlies. Friday's game might be Stones and JB as another pairing. Southgate has dug a hole for himself by including so many injured defenders in his squad.

Should be given at least a half in both games,what more can Southgate learn about Dunk.

Aye , seems like tonight’s match will broadly feature those not likely to start in the Euros and the next match will more closely resemble the starting XI, so I’m quite hopeful Jarrad will play his part in the next game. If he comes on tonight with 10 minutes to go, it wouldn’t be quite as encouraging.

It could be worse, we could be playing 4-5-1 and 0-0 at HT against Gibraltar like Scotland.

I’d be surprised if Branthwaite makes the 26.
He should, as he’s better than Dunk. But Southgate will stick to the senior players.

I know we want Branthwaite to play as CUFC will benefit but even if he came from elsewhere I would still have expected him to have at least played a few games by now, especially as he is in the squad for the finals.
Southgate is scared shitless that he shines and it spells the end for one of his chums.

That selection has a 2nd 11 feel about it, Pickford and Trippier aside.
