A round-up of the day’s Everton paper talk.
The views on this page are taken from the local and national media and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton.
Saturday’s Everton paper talk centres around a reported Blues move for Lacina Traore.
The 6ft 8in Ivorian striker has just been signed by Monaco and was seemingly set for a loan move to West Ham.
But several papers, including the Telegraph, the Mail, the Express and the Times, all claim that Roberto Martinez is set to hijack the deal.
Another striker, Romelu Lukaku, is discussed in the Star and the Mirror, with Martinez saying Chelsea are ‘not listening to offers’ for the Belgian star.
And in the Liverpool Echo, Everton’s Spanish boss says Seamus Coleman is not over-performing at present – he says the Irishman is just that good.
