If you're looking to get an Everton kit they are selling last years style on their website for 52% off. They're $32 (without shipping) for just the jersey or $60 with name and EPL patches. I think I'll be ordering a Cahill one sometime next week. I might get the new away one later in the year.

I see the main difference is that they added a collar this season.

Added a collar? The only jersey they've released is the 11/12 away kit. They'll be releasing the new home one July 4th.

I saw this at a few sites with a quick Google search.

Meh, if that is all they are doing. I don't really like collars to much so I'll stick with the 'older' one.

Sources in Swansea believe that Neil Taylor has rejected a move to Newcastle and could join Everton instead.

The left sided midfielder, who can also cover at left back, was a pivotal part of Swansea’s promotion campaign last season but Newcastle triggered a release clause in his contract which now allows Taylor to leave the Welsh side.

A product of the Manchester City academy, Taylor spent much of his early professional career at Wrexham before moving to Swansea last season, a move which saw him make his international debut for Wales against Croatia.
Taylor could sign for as little as £1m.

Did Everton finally get someone over Newcastle? Still isn't a forward.

James Perch v.2, The the Mackems of Liverpool are welcome to him, we all know Ashley was just going to purchase him as a "back up", wait until there's 6 hours left in the transfer window, sell Enrique and go "Hey, sorry guys, had no time left to find a new starting left back."

Mark Douglas says it's not true, anyway. We'll sign him.

LOL Freddy Adu. Kid came on and made a instant fucking impact, then clowned Panama some more. He looked like one of the USA's best players with ease.

EXCLUSIVE: Sanchez refuses to board plane to Manchester for City talks

Alexis Sanchez turned into a non-flying winger when he refused to get on a plane to join Manchester City in a stunning £30 million deal.

Chilean star Sanchez was cleared to leave his country’s training camp to speak to City about a move to the Premier League after the megabucks outfit stepped ahead of Barcelona and Manchester United with the best bid.

However Sanchez rocked his club Udinese by telling them he would not go as he does not consider City to be his favoured option - he would rather join United or speak to Barca to find out their plans.

The drama was played out at Santiago airport where media gathered to see Sanchez fly off - only to find out he had put the block on the transfer.

Sanchez thought he was going to speak to Champions League Barca, but their offer of a player plus cash was rejected by Udinese who preferred City’s hard cash over the Spanish package or United’s £27 million offer.

However the exciting attacking star has now decided to have his say in the transfer tug-of-war and his action leaves United and Barca trying to persuade Udinese to take less money.

Barca only want to commit £22 million to the deal and have offered a selection of swaps, but their fringe men like Bjoan Krkic, Thiago Alcantara and Jeffren have said ‘no thanks’ to Udinese.

United are sitting comfortably in the background, still confident that their straight-cash deal will win the day - although time is also a factor in the race.

Sanchez is due to play for Chile in the Copa America which starts in a week. His national federation do not want to risk him appearing in case he is injured, while Udinese want him sold by then to spend the money.

Just happening... I still want Wes more, but i would def mess my pants if true!!!
