Sofiane Feghouli has signed for West Ham after sealing a three-year deal,Winger's contract ran down at Valencia and there was plenty of interest

Williams is decent business (what are Swansea playing at this summer??) but is £30m for Bolasie, and £18m for Sunderland's Lamina Kone really a good use of funds?
You'd think that between Koeman, and the director of football they pinched from Leicester, they'd either be going for untapped talent from the Dutch and French leagues, or, as per the rumours earlier this summer, spending their new-found wealth on top talent like Juan Mata and Axel Witsel.
Seems like they're panicking a bit really. It's all very well having 'ambition' and money to spend, there's no way Everton are starting the season with a stronger squad than Southampton's. Unlucky Ron! ;) -

The Williams deal for Everton is a good move but the other two are not value for money at all, I can only echo Scotty's comments that you would have expected a much better scouting operation to be in place at Everton and that they wouldn't be paying over the odds for average players -

Rumours today that Southampton will listen to offers for Charlie Austin, with Everton, Newcastle and QPR apparently interested.
Seems strange that we'd let him go after 6 months, and we're short on numbers up top as it is. Though if we're looking to replace him with someone like Benteke or Bony (wishful thinking?) then I might be ok with it. -

I was hearing this afternoon that Pep Guardiola was looking to sell Joe Hart, and possibly bringing in Bravo from Barcelona,
- i dont think i would make that move regardless of his terrible performance at the Euros for England, Joe Hart had a good season last season, and could do the same this season -

Joe Hart makes too many mistakes where he switches off or (more likely) gets very complacent about things. His arrogance defies his ability but on the whole last season he was solid so shouldn't be sold on the basis of form. However, Pep likes his sweeper keeper and Hart is not that and anytime he has attempted to be one has looked awkward and been mistake strewn. I guess Pep has to weigh up the benefits his system would get from having a Bravo in the side compared to the abilities that Hart possesses that Bravo etc.. do not have -

Hart's better than most when it comes to the traditional attributes, but when you're clocking up 70%+ possession you're probably not expecting your keeper to have too many shots to save, are you?
Valdes was never top-drawer, but he was a good fit for the system at Barca. So there's our answer I guess.
