O'Neills like a sand boy apparently, hes going around the club saying this whats happenes when your paitent, tbf they are getting their top targets in Fletcher, Johnson and Cuellar. There hoping to do another big striker as well.
Slap on the wrist by Bill, promise of a new contract, Moyes is happy to "go with what we've got".
Make no mistake about it, even with a great start to the season if it turns out to be the case, two or three injuries could seriously derail our ambitions this season. Is Moyes happy to take the risk, knowing that almost every season without fail we have a injury-ravaged month or two?
Let's get real though. O'Neil has a long history of paying over the odds for run of the mill Premier League players and has done so again. Cuellar is a past it Villa reserve, Wolves have fleeced them for Fletcher who is fairly mediocre and Johnson has finally found a club around about his level. The rest of their team is utter dross, Sessegnon aside.
Also fairly sure Johnson is far from a 'massive mackem fan' as well.
I don't think Moyes is happy with what he has.
You often have to wait in the window for your targets to become available late on or for their clubs to lower their asking prices as they need the money.
Early in the window the clubs normally overvalue all their players, hoping that a big team will come in for them but when they realize they're not going to they lower their prices. There's so much brinkmanship going on between clubs, sometimes you have to be patient to get the best deals and I'd prefer Moyes to hold out and try getting a fair deal on a good player than just blow what little money we've got left on a nobody to make up the numbers.
I'd love to see Manuel Fernandes back at the club. I think he's a top draw player and he'd give us an outside chance of breaking the top 4. He's also versatile, which would be another bonus.
I don't think it'll happen but I'd be in dreamland if it did.
I'm pretty sure Moyes will buy at least 1 more player or get someone in on loan. Let's all hope he can pull another rabbit of the hat.

still wouldn't mind it we bought Afellay and another CM.
Mclean is great and Larsson's good too.

You can't play McLean, Johnson and Larrson. McLean had been found out a bit by the end of last season, a bit like Coleman IMO.
An sure people just think its like playing football manager
Managers do buy players in real life too, though. Not so much at everton but I've defo seen it happen.
