But that need for players doesn’t mean signing crap like longstaff and Harrison just to hit evertonians arbitrary timeframes on what makes a window a success.
We can field a team tomorrow that Moyes had top 8 on form minus doucoure and...
It’s clear that only the clubs with deep pockets and benefit from PSR protection are the ones spending big at the moment - all others having to box clever.

New contract for Branthwaite, new striker, upgrade on back up keeper, Alcaraz sorted. Spent about £45m so far. Hardly sitting on their...
So we agree? Calling the window a failure before it’s over, getting worked up about things you can’t influence, assuming they aren’t grafting behind closed doors to get it right won’t change a thing.
