what exactly is them then? I thought if you shifted some of what you spend it’s fine, why cap it?

The crux of FFP regulations is the break-even requirement, where clubs are ordered to not spend more than the income that they generate, and that they must balance their books over the course of three years.

In terms of revenue, only a club's outgoings in transfers, employee benefits (including wages), finance costs and dividends will be considered over income from matchday sales, TV revenue, advertising, finance, player sales and prize money.

so other words we have to sell to what we can then buy? Wtf that’s going to be fun
 

Think back to when we came 5th under Martinez in what was a pretty weak league. We had a keeper in far better form than Pickford is now. We arguably had the best full back pairing in the premiership who had both been in PFA team of the year. We had Jagielka Distin and Stones as centreback options. All three with pace, power, and height. In midfield we had Barry who didn’t have much pace but was technically excellent and sat deep, and in front of him we had McCarthy and Barkley two physical, fast, midfielders both with good feet and control. Upfront we had our best premier league striker in our history, flanked by a Belgian international with the other sport rotated between any of Pienaar, Osman, or Deulofeu. That team came 5th jostling with the might of AVB’s Spurs, Moyes’ United, and Pochettino’s Southampton for that spot.

The top sides have all got a lot better since then (Perhaps Arsenal aside). Meanwhile you look through our 11 and player for player not only is it worse it’s far far worse. Coleman is still at right back which is horrifying. Keane and Mina are slow and not a patch on the three we had back then. Not one of our midfielders now could lace the boots of the three we had then and I didn’t even like Barry. Richarlison is a talent no doubt but there’s nothing behind him. We could drop Lukaku back then and still choose from Naismith Mirallas Deulofeu even Jelavic was still on the books. After Richarlison we are into two kids in the striker positions and frankly nothing out wide.

The squad is far far worse than Evertonians think it is. I think Allardyce, Silva in his first season, and Ancelotti have massively over performed with it. It’s a bottom half squad that could easily be in a relegation scrap given how poor it is. Goodison park, Richarlison and decent managers are probably the only reason we haven’t been in a serious one since Koeman left.

This will take Ancelotti a long time to fix. Koeman utterly destroyed us and left us with nothing.

Why’ve you forgotten Holgate exists.

Spot on. When people talk about our last few managers and how bad they were for me their is no argument about who donw most damage. Koeman and Walsh absolutely destroyed the club.

Well no but when you have midfielders like that absolute worst formation we could play is 4-4-2.

I imagine now Sidibe is back we’ll see 3 at the back used a bit more.

Basically I think Dunc showed 2 up front works for Richy and Dom so Carlo has just stuck to that.

Defo time for something else now though

Have we got two decent strikers? Check. Two up top formation.

Have we got any decent wingers? No. Don’t use a formation with wingers.

Have we got two proper full-back? No just the one. Don’t go 4 at the back.

Have we got one RB that can only defend and one that can only attack? Check. Right sided CB and RWB sorted.

Are we still lumbered with number 10’s and also have a midfield duo that get bullied? Check. Stick an attacking mid on to keep their midfielders busy and provide more time for ours.

3-5-1-2

That’s the only formation I like with this squad at the mo.

Pickford
Coleman Holgate Keane
Sidibe Sigurdson Davies Digne
Gordon
DCL Richarlison

Its not great like

Even swap Mina for Coleman or Gomes for Gordon/Sig/Davies, its still not great.

We need power, pace and the ability to carry the ball in the middle of the park.

Ancelotti: We don't have 100% energy

Carlo Ancelotti believes fatigue was a problem for Everton in their draw with Southampton after a quick turnaround from playing on Monday.

It's probably physically and mentally draining, Playing with no fans is probably the worst experience ever whether they're on 1 million a week.
Especially when our season is finito and we're just playing for appearances.
