Is it just me or do you wounder sometimes about our scouting network. Isco has been a stand out player for sometime now whilst playing for Malaga but we don't even seem to of put any interest in him. Anyone who has any idea about football and has seen him play ( Not just in the u21 competition ) but for Malaga through out the season would understand that he is going to be a class player. Why on earth have we not shown any interest in this player? I know we are interested in Thiago and he also looks like a top top player but Isco is going to be in a class of his own. Also out of 10 what do you rate our chances of getting Thiago and Strootman because I can see us also missing out on Thiago because of leaving it to late. FINGERS CROSSED I am wrong. {Ed004's Note - I don't think we should worry about our scouting network. What if he is not the type of player we need for Moyes new plans. What if Moyes wanted a direct winger such as Reus, Mirallas, Ronaldo etc}

Think Mirallas would be a really clever signing. Can play left wing or as a striker. Would be brilliant in a front 3 with rvp and Kagawa. Plus Moyes knows the lad well. That's the sort of player we should be looking at. Loads of potential and a lot cheaper than other names I've heard banded about

The reason we aren't going for Isco is simply because there are much more financially aggressive teams looking at him a. k. a City and Real Madrid. It would cost too much in wages too attract him too our club.

I am a fan of Mirallas. Too good for Everton. Mirallas & Baines would do us nicely.

"Mirallas & Baines would do us nicely". - Are you being serious? This comment is even worse than the OP one of "Our scouting must be poor as we haven't registered interest in Isco" - one player for crying out loud!
