These results were recently published by Doilette for the last turnover results.

Man Utd - €519.5 mil
Man City - €463.5 mil
Arsenal - €435.5 mil
Chelsea - €420 mil
Liverpool - €391.8 mil
Tottenham - €257.5 mil
Newcastle - €169.3 mil
Everton - €165.1 mil
West Ham - €160.9 mil

Moshiri has to get the finances right in the next 3 years and a new ground built,because with the RS Spurs and Chelsea expanding or moving to new stadiums and West Ham getting a freebie stadium these clubs are going to pull further away with increased matchday revenues and naming rights.
 

We need to get shut of Elstone. Those turnover figures are nowhere near good enough, for all his spouting about 'record deals for this and that. This isnt Castleford Tigers anymore Elstone, this is Everton football club.
Get shut of him and bring someone in at the very top of their field.

I wouldn't worry too much about Elstone - Ryazantsev is there working with him. Probably all you need to say about that!

I'd have good money on Elstone going in the skip before the year ends
 

Regardless of the quality of the underlying business, who wants to buy 30% of an illiquid stock (in trading terms) that offers no board position or influence with the dominant majority shareholder whilst releasing the seller to create a major competitor elsewhere?

A Kroenke family member maybe, who likes the investment opportunity in Arsenal. The share price just seems to keep rising.

Because the expectation is Kroenke will buy outright I assume, so they'll make a profit on those shares regardless.

I agree with Esk that nobody would buy into Arsenal with the hope of having any form of influence. I think Usmanov is waiting for Kroenke to make him a big offer personally, then he'll come to Everton. Got no proof of that obviously, but it's what I'd do - there's no rush with Moshiri already in place, and the share price at Arsenal means he has no reason to panic sell.

So what in your opinion would be the trigger for Kroenke to buy out Usmanov? As has been stated on here many times, he doesn't actually need those shares as he has already isolated Usmanov completely.
 

Personally I'm more than delighted with the sea-change Morshiri seems to be invoking right now at EFC, we've gone from middling mediocrity to what certainly appears to be the start of a serious organisation with very high aims indeed, this is not the Everton that we're used to; it's a return to NSNO. That said, some things have made me raise an eyebrow, in particular the amount of cash thrown at Koeman and the huge transfer budget we all seem to understand he has likely been promised...

We all know Morshiri is very rich, even by Premier League standards, but if the reports are true then his behaviour seems indicative of someone much richer than even he, if and only if his reported wealth is actually what sources say it is. This leads me to conclude that one of the following is probably true:

A) Morshiri is substantially richer than we have all been led to believe (very possible, he is a world class and internationally renown accountant after all).

B) The reports are all way off the mark (seems unlikely, given that nobody of any merit in the media is questioning them).

C) Morshiri has a partner or partners behind him with even more money than he (seems, to me, the most likely at this stage).

D) Morshiri is willing to splash a lot more of his cash than other people with similar wealth (by all means possible, but perhaps not very likely, he is where he is for a reason).

I think most people on here seem to think C) is true, and are associating Usmanov because of his historic connections with Morshiri, now while I agree with The Esk that Usmanov seems unlikely -- though not impossible -- right now, I do think it's highly likely there is at least one significantly wealthy person watching -- and perhaps directing -- from the shadows.

Time will tell...
Me, I'm not really bothered where the money comes from as long as its unlimited and we continue to spend it in incredibly bad taste.
