We also have billionaire owners, they are not putting money into the club as a strategy of self reliance but even if they wished to move away from this policy FFP would prevent that from happening.

We can’t seriously be aiming to get top 4 and do well in Europe with the likes of albrighton, gray, Fuchs and Morgan and no recognised left back apart from a kid surely?😂 No but we might be aiming for top 6 with the likes of Maddison, Vardy, N'Didi, Tielemans etc, Regarding left back, just ask yourself, did we sign Castagne because we are collecting rightbacks or is it more likely that he will be that left back when Ricardo returns? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFP is “on a break” this season. Hence why they’ve got around it and taken advantage. They also sold the “naming rights” to their training ground the Usmanovs company....

Guest Fktf Posted 5 October 2020 Share Posted 5 October 2020 I'm surprised people are surprised by Everton's spending. They've been doing it for years now. I know it isn't as exciting in the transfer window, but we should value the sustainable approach our owners take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bezzanator89 Posted 5 October 2020 Share Posted 5 October 2020 Given that we are spending a large amount on Seagrave, our transfer policy kind of hinges on a player leaving for a large fee so we can buy more than one with lower transfer values that have time to develop at the club. The sales of Mahrez, Chilwell, Maguire and Kante, plus others, have financed plenty of players' arrivals over the past few years. And I fully expect that trend to continue over the next few seasons.

But he’s not a natural left back. That’s my point. He’s a makeshift left back, as are the others. Not good enough for a club with top 4 aspirations. Really thought we would kick on and show some ambition after the shambles after restart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I fully expect that trend to continue over the next few seasons. exactly, the owners havent splashed cash on players without selling first in years. since before pearson rejoined really. people seem to have a very misguided idea on the way we do transfers. the owners almost never invest money to buy players. in fact at this point they straight up never do that, they have us running at a profit, the club pays for itself.
