The worrying thing is our direct rivals, Leicester and West Ham have added some serious players. They are our competition for P6. if we dont add quality, we will fall even more behind. Then there is Wolves and Villa, who also added. Then there is Brighton. If Everton dont make a significant move, we might fall even further, and make adding players even more difficult.

Aside of that, can someone explain what is happening with Siggurdson? If he aint playing, can we terminate the contract?
:coffee:
 
Part of me harps back to the sudden withdrawal of interest in Max Aarons.
We were supposedly quite far down the line with Norwich on that for a summer arrival.
It then just dropped like a stone.

Maybe Carlo pulled out knowing he was going?
Maybe the club were banking on a big sale which will have been more accepted by the fan base with Carlo in charge?
Maybe the club see Benitez as short term and don't want to back him?

Either way we're now stuck with a manager not many wanted, who vas started off tremendously but isn't being backed.

Knowing Benitez he will make it known too if certain things promised haven't materialised.
What a mess.
Fingers crossed for some luck with injuries and illness this season.

My own two pennies worth.

Money was to spend. Perhaps banking on an early Kean sale. Didnt happen. Ancelotti going saw a re-set. They want to get the books in order for a lender.
 

Couple of points
Last window Utd froze us out on a deal and it's happened again plus Arsenal. Why do we pick clubs who have no intention of doing business with us - its so thick from us.

Second , both these clubs and managers should have there cards marked for the future no matter who they go on to manage.
Correct. If Brands has anything to do with it it's just a clear sign that there is no scouting and we are left calling up those clubs and going down the usual route.

Brands seems to love this way of doing things. Unless it's the manager of the day stepping in to sign players, Brands tries for the Utd / City / Barca / Juve rejects. Arsenal as well.

Another reason they don't want to do business, particularly on loan now, is they see what happens to players when they do sign for Everton. They don't want that threatening value.

I suppose it is one of two things, in the main:

Under Carlo we decided to break the rules and deal with the consequences later á la Man City; once he left and we took the Benitez approach we decided to about-face and start the financial reset.

OR

We blagged Carlo and hoped he wouldn’t realise when he ended the window with an Emu puppet at RB.
