There is literally nothing more boring than a biased media projecting their ideas of 'Everton frustration' when there actually is none, and perpetuating the myth that the spending of money GUARANTEES a team will finish above Everton, when the last 10 years has basically shown this not to be the case time and time and time again (and again, this is patronisingly explained away as 'Everton overachieving').
'Overachieving' - one of the most pathetically incorrect words ever applied to Everton Football Club. You overachieve for 2 years, maybe 3 - but not 10+. At some point, if you're completely unbiased, you have to hold your hands up and just say, "You know what, Everton haven't overachieved - they actually have some very good players that WE THE MEDIA UNDERRATED, in our desperation to appear intelligent and automatically equal transfer fee paid with ability and talent (never factoring in greed/desperation/bad business on the part of certain so-called big clubs).
The whole thing is a load of garbage - the discussion, outsiders' skewed perceptions of Everton, of the club, of where we stand in the grand scheme of things, of how the media perceive us (such as disgracefully airbrushing Lukaku's £28m transfer from the list of 'most expensive transfers this summer' on that graphic on Sky).
I try not to pay any attention to it any longer, because none of what they say is true or worth a carrot. Screw them all.
