Player Valuation: £50m
It may seem hard to remember, but until quite recently, we had a long and bad history of foreign players not quite making it at Goodison. I think, I may be right in saying that it was only Pistone back in 2005 who signed a 1-year contract extension, that was the first foreign player who we actually kept on past his initial contract. How times have changed, eh? Whatever formula Moyes has taken, it has made a massive difference that the many of the overseas players we bring in go on and sign longer contracts and aren't shipped off two years into a 5 year contract.
Why couldn't we hold onto foreign players before this? What is Moyes doing differently now that past managers couldn't?
