If Kenwright was in charge how I would see this window going. We pocket the extra TV money. We sell Stones to City and get Bony and 30m, we then sell Lukaku to Juve and take their 21 year old CB and get another 40m.

Profit 70m + 30m (tv). We put that towards a Kirkby 2 stadium.

Let's hope Kenwright still isn't in charge.

What because the esk says so. It doesn't seem to be effecting anyone else. Besides we have lost 4 high earners. We could already use another 7m from the TV money and we would have to next year to balance the books. So plenty of time to get those big commercial deals in.

I am not sure you fully grasped the point that @The Esk was making about wages and the Moshiri project.
The whole salary payscale of the club is to be overhauled. It is not just the salaries of the new signings. It has been suggested that Lukaku will be offered a salary of greater than 100k per week, Barkley the same. As contracts for other established players fall due there will be increases for those as well.
We are told that we are at least attempting to sign players of the calibre of Mata and Witsel their salaries alone, if signed, would push the club wages bill north of 10m per annum.
The point being made is that Everton almost overnight move into a different category of premiership club.No longer a middle of the road club, but an ambitious club with a payscale to match that ambition.

I don't think there is any other club in the premiership attempting such an ambitious upgrade , in terms of percentage increase in costs.

What is frustrating so many I think is that they want this vision realised immediately and are getting frustrated when it is not happening quickly enough.

The time to judge will be Sept 1st when the dust finally settles and until then it is argument and counter argument with so side able to prove their argument conclusively.
It may well be that what happens falls well short of what is being suggested or exceeds expectations.
I am around long enough to be prepared to wait and see.

Nonsense. There's a big difference between seeing them play against you under a different manager's tactics and instructions compared to seeing them in training and play in your own style.

Even Kone, Niasse, McGeady etc will be given a chance to at least show 'something'.

Nonsense? Really? So you are saying every player signed by any club has a trial first to see if they fit into their system. Also he would be running the rule over half fit players who won't be showing much for a while yet in playing conditions and against decent opposition.
