For sure there is. There will be a pot of £150mil+ to use.
To me it sounded like he wanted ready made experienced players like Travers, King, KDH and Grealish. Simply because he wants his 2 year deal to be extended when he hits a top 10 league position.
Then hes throwing around european qualification as if he will achieve that by spending massive sums for short term success....and suggesting at that point the club becomes attractive.
Previously he was claiming a new stadium and being Everton was enough.
Then he blamed his colleagues. When hes been told off hes now found another excuse.
Im tired of his passing the blame and excuses. Hes failed at recruitment at every single club since leaving.
Dibling started 20 games for Southampton last season. He also was a sub in 13.
He's very different to Barry. For example, Dibling has both English youth international and premier league experience.
Barry does not, though he has done well at his former clubs since leaving France. Also netting double figures in Spain.
Aznou had half a season with incredible stats in a poor team and is very highly rated.
These are all assets. Signing 'ready made' players such as KDH doesnt push the team on into european contention.
He's a mid table player who will become a squad player in 2 years time unless he dramatically improves.
Signing young players who can become top level performers is the only way for this club to improve year on year as they develop and realise their potential.
It sounds like you want more Grealish and KDH types for short term league placing. This i think is a mistake and severely damages the PSR factor.
Hes sabotaging the clubs image to reinforce himself and play to the fans.
Very poor.
