The understanding I had was that Everton is a long term project and Brands' model suits that. Buy young, develop, sell for profit whilst building a winning side. We all knew after the recent mess of Koeman and Walsh we were a 4-5 year project and hopefully this has been reiterated to Ancelotti as I hope he hasn't demanded a big chequebook and wants to overhaul the side.
No way ancelotti is taking the job for the sake of taking a job.
He is a top tier manager and we are 16th in the table and have never played in the champions league and haven't won a trophy in 25 years.
The only way you get a manager like ancelotti is by paying him big money and giving him a war chest.
Yes he hasn't had to build a team before and could do a koeman, but it's a risk moshiri has to take.
I'm expecting ancelotti to spend around 250m within the first 2 transfer windows.
He is being bought in for instant success not a 5 year project
