Hardly pulled up trees and packed off after 2 season.
I do think it is funny how he went from coming on the radio talking about a 'Hollywood' manager in Koeman and then replacing him with Sam Allardyce. I think that sums up what has happened lol. Before Moshiri we used to have to sell assets each year to make money for Moyes to toy around with and now we are probably going to still have to sell our best players to give Ancelotti money to do the same, despite having a billionaire owner.
Never got treated fairly by refs. Shame really.
Moyes spent 13m NET in 11 years.
The last player we sold cos we needed the money was Arteta.
Since then every player sold has been cos they wanted out and you never keep an unhappy player.
Pogba went AWOL for 6months when refused a move, De Gea went from the best in the world to not even the best at United when refused a move and a more recent example is Zaha at Palace.
I liked Bily
He was very likeable, but sadly not for this world.
If you go back to Smith/Moyes we were selling our best players every summer or each year. Rodwell, Rooney, Lescott, previously, Michael Ball, Jeffers and Duncan Ferguson. Moyes only spent any money because of big sales. That's my point. Due to FFP Ancelotti may also have to sacrifice his better players. It has gone completely wrong.
Mistakes have been made.

Mainly by Walsh, the trail of destruction leads right back to July 9th 2017. All we need is a time machine to go back and lay the nut on the PE teacher before he signed Rooney. Actually Rooney wasn't the biggest problem but we had already signed Klaassen, while having Barkley still around. So we were just driving Barkley's price down as obviously surplus to requirements and doing the same with the Ajax captain we had bought a couple of weeks prior at the same time. That's before we skewed off into this nightmare alternate timeline by signing Siggurdson who never ever fitted into any system thus making everyone else worse by default.
It was amazing that we looked quite good the year before finishing 7th, if we had just bought Giroud and say Batshuayi as more of a direct replacement for Rom (not as good of course but still better than...), instead of Sandro, how different our world would have been.
If Walsh didn't make these signings then he should have walked, no way as DoF would I have let the club pick up 3 number 10's in one summer. It was a disaster waiting to happen, so no surprises when it did.
I blame Koeman far more than Walsh. I also blame this unnecessary DoF model. Koeman basically said 'ok then. as long as he plays between the lines and wins second balls pay anything' to Walsh and the board for Sigurdsson. Koeman was not bothered, if he failed, it was a project he was not to blame for as the club was not used to success. He seemed to be 'sign them all, long contract yes, as long as they win second balls' to anything and was not even bothered about motivating Lukaku to stay. Koeman did not care about the finances or stability of this club - AT ALL - and Moshiri is to blame for appointing him. Hollywood manager? More like Bollywood manager. 'Don't do a Leeds' they all said, the board and owner - and yet if we go down and then down again we may be far worse off than Leeds were.

They all wanted to leave and had absolutely no interest in playing for Everton.
A nastier clutch of utter rats we hopefully won’t see the like of again.
Now, pass me that warfarin.

But any signings should have gone through Walsh to approve, if Koeman or Moshiri wanted a particular player and overrode Walsh then he should have walked. You are right Koeman didn't care about budgets or the state of Everton in 3 years time so his say should have been taken under advisement and been given a list of players that they could have picked one from. Instead of all 3.
One day we might find out the truth but in my mind it was Walsh's fault and remember he was also the person that vouched for Big Sam too and that led to Tosun, then Walcott.
