Farhad Moshiri

Now Sissoko claiming that he has no knowledge of ever agreeing anything with Everton.

The choice of man to relay his thoughts to the world is alarming and depressing. If you wanted to be taken seriously as a major player in the PL would you use a feller dragged out annually to wear a yellow suit and scream at maximum volume at viewers to impart your vision? Add that to the chummying up to the equally ridiculous figure of Joe Anderson and alarm bells are ringing louder than Jim White at a minute to go in the transfer window.

The transfer window and in particular TDD is the time when the owners take center stage. Of course it would be Jim White he would send the texts to.

The rest of the season no one cares about them.

Now Sissoko claiming that he has no knowledge of ever agreeing anything with Everton.

He would say that to protect his PR. Massively unprofessional actions that night which will reinforce the overall view of what that guy is.

There's a second Moshiri out there, that's the only answer

 

[APN_EFC]

Yes you are.

Moshiri is by a significant margin the largest individual shareholder in Everton, and holds more than "BK and his mates" combined.

I understand and also the other shareholders are also important massive supporters of EFC. I know Wiki is not always right but:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farhad_Moshiri_(businessman) 49.9%

Basically I'm wondering, what does largest individual shareholder mean? I think it's that your voice is heard loudest, and you're given a lot of respect, but you're not officially THE owner

It means nothing official unless you control the board or enough shares to change the board.

Said he was in London all night waiting for his Spurs transfer to go through. Interview in L'Equip.

Kind of matches with him being there so quickly. Sounds to me like his agent pushing Spurs more than much of it.

Whose more likely to feed Sky info, Moshiri, the fella who has spoke to us once in 6 months? Or an agent desperate to get a £30m deal done?

 

[Tubey]

Here's another possible and the one I hope has happened.

The Gabbiadini and Brahimi deals fell through and we looked around for others last minute. "Sky Sources" heard about us looking at Sissoko and jumped the gun saying we were going to meet the £30m price.

All the while, the Spurs deal had gone silent to the media, but in reality it was on in the background and Sissoko went to London.

So the Sky Sources jumped the gun, and Moshiri's statement then becomes, in a way, true, because we didn't look at Sissoko. The "protecting McCarthy" stuff remains complete nonsense.

All that said, the likelihood of that is pretty much zero, as it means a lot of people getting a lot of things very very wrong on the night.

Old team photo of Moussa Sissoko, he appears to have played in the same team as Gary Coleman

He won't have. Barcodes wouldn't budge on £30mill, agent used us so spurs would up the pay.

As if anybody would believe anything he had to say. Didnt he also say his ambition was to play for Arsenal?

It's possible, but it still doesn't explain away everything. Sissoko was probably in London, because Spurs bid earlier in the day - but that doesn't mean he wasn't going to fly to Merseyside from London.

The club needs a massive January window otherwise we will go into next summer with no European football and a bleak summer transfer window.

We are going to have to try and fluke a cup that looks like the best way out of this unholy mess.

The club did say they had a plane on the tarmac ready for him.
