I liked your comment, because I agree with you. Not because I actually like it. Makes sense. We have a lot getting millions and producing very little.

It shouldn't be too hard to find a way for Kean to contribute. We need more goals and he's a goalscorer.
It would be unwise for the club to spend sizeable sums of money on transfers and wages when the likes of the top four are on the books - we need a clear out.
We can't lump money on new players and end up being over stretched if they are still taking a wage.
You are absolutely correct , this has been the summer of hell for Evertonians ;
Get the fat kopite as manager no one , well almost no one , wanted.
Not selling any of the 5/6 players we all want rid of .
No signings of note.
What we can't talk about.
But do you know what , I have a ridiculous feeling that we will do well next season.
Ok I might change my mind after the the first 6 games , but Everton that!
I think James needs to stay. Who cares if he goes on a free at the end of the season? He showed last season that he’s on a different level to the rest of the team. It’s easy to point out any short comings but his better qualities are far in excess of what anyone else on the team has about them.

I'd be offloading Townsend too if he's on £80k pw
No idea what he’s on but the money these players are on is absolutely shocking. The live life in a different planet.

This all day long. Super agents are like tantrum children if they don't get their way and have too much control. They are serving their own best interests (£££) first, and not necessarily the interests if their clients.
Unfortunately Raiola holds most of the aces against us in the Dumfries case, even though it seems Brands has a good relationship with the player too.
I have no idea how much but what is James worth to the club from a marketing/merchandising perspective? Is it anywhere near the transfer fee we could get now or how much of his wages would this cover over the remainder of his contract?

the difficulty for James is there's probably only a handful of clubs that could afford him, and by that i mean could afford to pay a player significant wages fully aware you'll maybe get 20 games at best from him a season.... and those clubs that can afford to throw money like that on a luxury player like that probably don't need him. I'm not saying he'll stay but it might be in his best interest to give us another season whilst the football economy recovers a bit from Covid and then next season he can head to the States or something on a massive wage and see out his last couple of years as a superstar over there.
He’s one of those players that needs to feel appreciated though. He came here from Madrid to play under Carlo and know he’s first name on the team sheet when fit. I don’t think he’ll get that from Benitez given their past relationship but who knows.
Would like to keep him and see him play 10 every week but wouldn’t be surprised if he leaves us.
I can imagine it’s a case of we have £40 million to spend on a right back and right winger.
in this case we were probably hoping for £15m on Dumfries and then £25m on Bailey/McNeil.
as clubs have increased prices they want, we are now looking at other options within our budget but I’d we mange to sell I.e kean we will push the button on our first choices

Have we reached or are about to reach a cut off day shortly when you can't buy again for several months.... a wondow closing, if you will.
Is it today, tomorrow or this weekend ?
Nobody was aware of our interest in Townsend, Begovic and Gray and suddenly we were ar medical stage.
We have heard of links with Dumfries, Bailey, Chekweze and McNeill ,Koulibal ,Lenglet but they could all be genuine enquiries or just fanciful media rumours.

I thought it was the end of the world when we sold Rooney many years a go. I'm sure we ended up getting top 4 that season. So there is always hope.
