Hi Ed001 what's your view on this Raul Jimenez what's he like as a player, do think he will suit the PL. thanks.

{Ed001's Note - I have only seen a tiny bit of him but I am told he is very suited to the Prem. I can't say I have seen enough to judge him, but a few scouts have mentioned him as someone to watch out for last season.}

Is the interest serious ed? Cheers mate.

{Ed001's Note - yes, but the price is higher than Everton value him, so I don't know if it will go anywhere.}

Hey all been reading the site for a couple of years but haven't been much of a writer, however thought I would take this opportunity considering I know a bit about Jiminez. I have lived in Mexico for 8 years now.
Firstly the obvious part, he can't get a game for Mexico he is behind chicharito, peralta who plays for an average albeit the biggest team in Mexico and still falls behind an ageing Giovanni dos Santos.
Mexicans don't rate Jiminez, he's a little lazy and loses the ball for fun, he will fire in the odd worldy, but I will stick my neck in the line and say this guy wouldn't make it in the prem, he scored an overhead kick from 18 yards against Panama in the last minute of the last world cup qualifier four years ago to save Mexico from an embarrasing exit, and he has dined out on it for years. He couldn't get a game at atletico and doesn't at Benfica, 45 million makes me chuckle this guy is not the answer. Sorry to be doom and gloom on my first post but this can't and shouldn't be true.

Thanks for your comments Mateo, can't see us paying any were near 45M for him.
