Farhad Moshiri

[Kev50]

but if he was doing that surely he would have bought 100 % to make even more profit ?

One explanation could be that Bill wanted to ensure he still had a significant interest to benefit from when the value of the club skyrockets.

So why would that explain that Moshiri has options in place to take Kenwrights and woods remaining shares?

He will no doubt want to be able to sell the club whole once he's put his deal together

Indeed.

FFP was not about levelling the playing field.....it was a small coterie of rich clubs pulling the ladder up and using UEFA to protect their hegemony.

All FFP does though is lock those clubs in their dominant positions. They grew their clubs without restriction and cannot now be challenged in the same way. It is perverse that the very clubs who benefitted from a lack of regulation are the same clubs now benefitting from regulation. FIFA, UEFA and the FA have spectacularly failed to achieve what they set out to achieve (if their public and private intentions are the same thing) with these rules.

Precisely.

For those trying to take me to task @ham2 I posted this in this thread back on May 20th:

The actual facts show that, as things currently stand, under Moshiri, we have a positive net spend of £25.6m. This is £17.6m if you include the Cleverley sale, which technically hasn't happened yet. Still a very substantial amount, considering the likes of LFC have a £10m NEGATIVE net spend during the same time period, just as a comparison. It's a total myth that Moshiri hasn't spent money. In fact it's not just a myth, it's stupidity to think that.

Deals done since Moshiri came in February 2016 (so basically, the last two windows, summer 2016 & January 2017):

Players signed (Fees reported in hyperlinks):

Martin Steklenberg £1m
Idrissa Gueye £7.1m
Ashley Williams £12m
Yanick Bolasie £25m
Dom Calvert-Lewin £1.5m
Ademola Lookman £11m
Morgan Schneiderlin £24m

Total spent £81.6m

Players sold:

Tim Howard £1m
John Stones £47.5m
Bryan Oviedo & Darron Gibson £7.5m

Total recouped £56m

Positive net spend of £25.6m.

Now if you want, we can add the sale of Tom Cleverley to this for £8m (even though it hasn't happened yet and won't happen until July 1st).

That's still a net spend of £17.6m on players by Moshiri since February 2016.

Them's the actual facts mate.

Anything else you've written are 'mights' and 'could be's just to suit your negative agenda of what you think might happen under Moshiri.

The reality thus far has been very different.

Jesus Christ, if Moshiri took a dump in the middle of Goodison you would be on your knees sniffing it and saying " It smells glorious "

Stick your head in a blender you utter wham bar head melt.

Let there be lessons from when I was on here bragging about our new owners taking us above the Everton lads!!!

I think the idea is they wanted to ensure that a club couldn't do a Portsmouth or Leeds, I don't think they minded the PSG or City takeovers so much. But you are right it has locked down who are the best. We need to get to a stage where we have salary caps and give more money to the bottom teams rather than the top to start to break the monopoly.

 

[everton2004]

Salary cap, transfer budget cap and a limit on squad size - the amount of players Chelsea have loaned out to others while buying big names is ridiculous. And it needs to be applied across all the leagues under UEFA. Level the playing field and dish out serious punishments for flouting the rules.

Oh god, he's going to take net spend poop on your profile now

 

[toffeejack]

£49M over 5 years (£9M per year) according to the club. Reports from Sportesa in Africa saying only £18M over 5 years. The reality probably somewhere in between.

I've checked this, and you're sadly wrong by several letters. His name is however an anagram of 'Farms hair oh!'
