Your logic is tragically flawed.
Yes I would have liked a superstar or two who wouldn't but the pure fact is we don't have CL football to offer a superstar and at the moment we don't have the pull of Man Utd and Mourinho

As for the silly silly assertion that we are only spending the stones money ... This is narrow almost naive thinking .

We have overall improved the squad
We have sold stones for a whacking profit and replaced him perfectly well. Just because the money spent so far does not automatically mean we only intend to spend the stones money
It means that is all we have needed to spend so far to improve the squad with the players in the market that we could convince to come
The money is there to be spent , that's why koeman signed up , the fact that is hadn't all been spent us down to
A doing good shrewd business
B our attraction level for superstars is not yet strong enough

Forget net spend its a dumb argument
Concentrate on net improvement in squad
Yep it could be even bigger with a superstar purchase but that won't happen with our current status
But the strength improvement in the overall squad and the management team for that matter is huge

All we have done is spend the Stones money and perhaps a little bit from the extra TV money. It's not naive just reality. We don't have long to find out now if that is all we will spend.

We normally improve the squad. This season is no different.

I think you are missing the point.
Net spend is important as we had this supposed war chest / 100 mill kitty to spend but as of yet we haven't touched it.
Like I said I'm not underwhelmed just disappointed.

So you won't be happy until we plunge ourselves into the red to prove to you that we have money to spend ?
You want us to buy £100 million worth of players and destroy the heart of what is already a good squad
I resign ... I am off to the pub until Thursday when hopefully you lot will have buggered off to whine about something else you clearly don't understand

We are only reinstating what the board said at the start of the summer so we are not whining for the sake of whining.
Your points about plunging ourselves into the red and destroying the squad are old Everton which as it stands could well be new Everton too.
Like I said I'm not underwhelmed just disappointed.

Yeah but we only have one decent striker at the club. If Lukaku is injured our season will be over before it has even begun.

We simply have to do some business in the next few days or we are taking a huge risk for the season and our prospects of signing decent players next.
