Exactly. You can see that certain players just have that swagger about them. Eze has that bravery and confidence to always demand the ball and be prepared to stay on it. Same as Bedford I like the way Eze uses both feet, I like his quick and close control, I like that he plays with his head up most of all though I like his confidence, that is what tells me that he will step up.And that's exactly who we should be targeting. Remember close season people touting McGinn over Grealish because he had better numbers or something. But what was evident to me was that Grealish had the tools to go up a level. I think he's shown that this year in a very poor team. He's held his own against better players and would go up again in a better team.
Back to Eze....When I had a look at him last season he looked like he had the Eriksen passing potential around the box, but like you say - with power and mobility to go with.
Apparently we enquired for him in January so there was interest back then. I know we no longer have Kane and Son injured but we still need a second decent number 9 option and this guy ticks a lot of Mourinho type boxes. I also thought he played well for Kosovo against England, that was his audition and he passed it.Was thinking about him today actually. He does seem a Mourinho player doesn't he.
I think he'll still be here next season. The season after will be a step too far though. I am hoping that we might be able to get him to agree to go to China so that we get a decent fee for him then.I see people mentioning selling Sissoko. If you think Mourinho is in the habit of selling powerful, multi positional, generally fit players that are happy enough to be part of a squad then I think you may be surprised. Either you will or I will.

I believe his agent has also quoted to the press that the player would be honoured to work under MourinhoHe was great in all their internationals
And for him it would be a move to make him
He strikes me as the kind of hungry player we could do with more of
Really really good keeperNick Pope, what a talent that fella is...would be a great replacement for Hugo although age is somewhat against him.

What's his contract situation?5.5 years between them. If you offered me 3-4 years now of peak Pope I’d take it.
Everton face a fight to sign Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes after a second Premier League club made a late bid for the player.
The Brazilian is expected to decide his future this week with Everton and Serie A side Napoli the front runners to sign him.
But Gabriel has now been made aware of a late bid by an unnamed Premier League club, thought to be in excess of £22m.
The 22-year-old is expected to leave Lille this summer following the curtailment of the 2019/20 campaign.
He has attracted rival offers from Italy and Spain but Everton and Napoli remain favourites to clinch a deal for the defender.
Gabriel starred in a Lille side that finished fourth in Ligue 1, helping them secure a place in next season's Europa League.
He joined the French club in 2017 after arriving from Brazil and has made 52 appearances since.
Why have Lille got ( and recently had) so many sought after players? We need to sign their DoF and entire scouting team.
More realistically I think we need to look primarily at functional players that can do a job and thus allowing our existing players to excel. Plug some gaps in the first team and squad with players that won't be great, but will give us better options and thus flexibility than we have now.
Thats exactly what Jose inherited At UnitedThis is key for me too. We look a little overstocked in some positions with nothing in others.
