It's been a good season...

pardon the phrase and, please, don't take this personally but get [Poor language removed]. Kenwright had the opportunity many times to allow us to move on. He never wanted to relinquish his train set. We could have been where City were if he would have acted in the best interest of the club, instead we are struggling to maintain the 'best of the rest'.

Don't take it personally and in truth we don't actually know, but my take is mine and likewise yours is your own as well. Without the shiny new stadium I don't think we could have had the city purchase.

If having a bad season means fixing the club and getting rid of the current dross then maybe we'll look at this season as the turning point in the future

(scraping the barrel for positives here)

Moshiri's incompetence has destroyed any good will he had and he's up against it now.

My view is that - more than a change of manager/coaching staff/CEO...which are all required, of course - we need a new owner. This feller Moshiri is a busted flush. And when this stadium scheme fails I see him quickly selling up.

Don't ask for much, do you Dave?

What am I missing re Walsh?

Which of his signings get peoples goat? Schneiderlin?

I think we need to sign a couple of centre backs to replace Williams and jags and a decent left back and then we will have a decent side.

Lookman, Pickford, Gueye, Sigurdsson, Rooney, Walcott, Vlasic, Henry all look like good signings already.

Keane is improving with every match.

Sandros signing wasn't slated by anyone before he got here and we look like makin g a profit on him anyway.

Martina was koemans signing.

Klassen I just think isn't quite there but there's definitely at the very least, a lower end premier league player there somewhere. Might just be a confidence issue.

Schneiderlin, think he's been scapegoated to some extent but has definitely seen his form dip. The fact its a dip in form and not a lack of talent means it cant be laid at walsh's door.

The hate he gets is weird quite frankly.

..I think it’s wrong to look solely at individual signings. You need to look at the squad as whole and how it fits a playing strategy. The squad is very unbalanced, top heavy in some positions whilst woefully lacking in others. There’s a real lack of athleticism (pace, strength, running power) particularly obvious in EL where teams overpowered us. Players bought who don’t compliment each other (in the way Coleman/Walcott immediately look a combination), meaning no blend. Players bought without a team structure and method of play in mind.

I reckon that has something to do with the DoF.

You should level that at Moshiri: he's asking Everton to pick up a £600M debt for his stadium scheme so he can increase his share value.

Now THAT is audacious.

..that’s an opinion, of course. It might be a correct opinion, but it’s an opinion.

It's all opinion here. But this one is backed up by the scheme plan to have the club pay the whole amount plus interest back.

It cant go ahead because it'll kill the club in any crisis. But if that's what some people want....

Perfect thread...

 

[Igrok]

It has been a good season to show everyone how not to run a club...

 

[BernieH]

At least we weren't promised Mata and Witsel this year, i had that all over social media when Moshiri first came, what a load of tosh.

Little harsh. But I always try to see the best in everyone.

It was a huge step from being a shareholder in another club to a full out club owner. Making mistakes is a part of life as long as he learns from them we'll eventually move in the right direction I hope. Am I happy with the progress, I'm on the fence I just feel once someone retains full control of the club, gets the people in he wants in the board I'll then judge accordingly. The stadium thing is always a gamble mate it's like going to the river holding a pair of 5s and the final flip to make 3 of a kind. So many variables both in your control and out of them when it comes to simple single dwelling developments let alone a new stadium. I was at a meeting the other week with some prospective clients and the buzz for the plans for the whole waterfront was immense.

The producer is left out though: the gormless Moshiri.

Bottom line is that HE is calling the shots here on everything: who manages the club, how much money has been spent (and wasted), the terms and conditions that we'd have a stadium built at BMD.

It's an absolute catastrophe he's overseen here in less than two years.

Can I sum that up for you ?

Walsh is a clueless, gravy train riding, waste.
