Net Spend

Zatara · January 2, 2015

Howard
Hibbert
Jags
Distin
Baines
Osman
Etc etc all in their 30s...

The manager has had to spend big on mccarthy lukaku and besic simply to have players who show some longevity...they arent cheap and thats 40+ mil there.

Shouldn't we be leaving the Net spend to the Kopites to discuss, that does not excuse this manager from taking a constant top 7 regular (including his first season) to our current plight, plus the focus should be what he has spent and that is close to 50 million which averages out at 25 per season and this squad that has been assembled with said money should not have it's fans worried about a relegation dogfight. Fukkin simple as that.

You're right, but it's so hard to calculate.

Based on current situation you have it down thst we should have 20mil In summer, I'd say closer to 30mil...

Tricky.

What utter nonsense.

It is directly relevant. It dictates what money Martinez has available to spend at any time.

And I'm not questioning that, they are here and for the most part they are decent - excellent players or they are Lukaku - Macarthy yet we are still making excuses for the fraud, at the start of the season or even now, nobody could make an excuse for any other Everton PL squad being better than this one and he has messed it up.

Careful @Neiler the plotters will see this and it being contrary to the:

"MARTINEZ IS DELIBERATELY INCREASING THE SQUAD'S AGE AND RUINING EFC"

agenda and try and stick the knife in your back.

@davek the plotters are at work again Dave.

There are holes all over the show here, net spend is a poor method of how much is spent on a player, but at least know what players we actually signed.

Like: Jindrich Stanek.

I'm sure you'll agree with my assessment. If Martinez wants it we should be able to give him £10-15million to spend this January. But if he does that won't be available in the summer (which would be about £20million in August)

Yes?

I think it depends on the structure of the Lukaku deal, the new TV money is gravy train stuff so there will be money there in the summer, unless the ground move gets some traction.

I'd rather see us do a holistic performence management exercise, cost - benefit, some just aren't carrying theyre weight, rather then papering over the cracks with signings, I wouldn't sing anyone. Id get about 8 players in and I'd say you've six months to prove to me you should be at Everton next year. Let the 76th hunger games begin.

24 million up front. Last 4 million will be paid over two/three years. So its really negligible to us.

Distin would be insta-banned under the @bizzaro regime.

He's two faced and this wouldn't be tolerated under my management.

He's also a bottler and goes missing when he's needed.

How do you know that mate? Seems strange.

Something I've heard.

Lets just say Distin would not be at Everton if I had my way.

We've got the money to improve now on someone that should of retired last season.

As bizarro pointed out jelavic 7.5 mil.

I also forgot to add forshaw money.

So my figure is dead on or actually slightly too high depending on the undisclosed amounts which you have chosen to fabricate.

Surely you can add up the numbers and see that the net spend is a pittance?

Note also that you are bringing up (continuously) stop gaps rather than actually seeing that a stopgap free transfer isnt actually bringing up the average age of the squad long term as its a short term measure...

Why?

Because any money he has had has gone on 4 players

Lukaku
Mccarthy
Kone
Besic

Of whom kone is the only disaster which brings the age up and yet hes only on a 3 year contract.

He's spent transfer fees on 8 players stop saying stupid things like the he's only bought 4 players (it was 3 before) again you're just making it up as you go along .

8 players have been brought it with transfer fees!!!

"Note also that you are bringing up (continuously) stop gaps rather than actually seeing that a stopgap free transfer isnt actually bringing up the average age of the squad long term as its a short term measure..."

You said he had to cope with an ageing squad as an argument for his transfer business.

He's made the average age of his squad older there is no getting around that no matter whether he paid a fee or not.
