All of them, son, all of them. You can take points away from me, but you can't take my pints.
 
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.

But what about Moshiri? What is his football sense? Leicester win the league in a once in a lifetime event and he takes their DoF, he appoints a not bothered Koeman, essentially poaching him from Southampton our BIGGEST ever rivals in the biggest coup we could ever see? It has all been lazy it's fine if he wants to waste his money but it's not fine if the club doesn't move on at all and ends up in a worse position after he's gone.

Move on?? All were clapping their hands with Koeman coming with his Rep.

As I have mentioned in the aftermath of all this, the decisions to hire Koeman and Walsh were sound enough. RK had a couple of season finishing high up so why not try and get him? It's not like world class managers were falling over themselves to come here. Koeman had a successful first season, if not for an 8 to 10 game blip it would have been a very, very good season.

Walsh was a scout at Leicester but he was held responsible for finding all these cheap players that won them the league. Obviously Gana was an example where he used those stats based logic to good effect, however he was totally not adept when we received a truck load of money for Lukaku and then trying to get value for money. Everyone rinsed us and we failed to even replace Rom in the end.

Moshiri hired for the right reasons, even taking Sam after Koeman left was a semi sensible idea given just how bad we were that season, with Unsworth not getting any kind of bounce. It is that one season that this all stems from, where we have players on inflated contracts and who were signed for the wrong reasons and that was down to our DoF. Thank god most of them have gone now or only have a couple of years left.

Admitting to being a banned multi then whinging about rep is a bit risky

I think Walsh is badly being the scapegoat for the club's way of being and also Koeman/Moshiri. He signed DCL for £1.5m and we will probably get £35m or so, who knows, depending on what happens. He also signed Lookman who was underplayed. Also Walcott's best form came under Allardyce. The biggest mistake SA made was signing Tosun and then not playing him. It made the signing look bad and it showed fear. Tosun is a good enough player but if you're gonna pay a European team like Besiktas £26m for him then you should bloody play him. Walsh, as you said, also signed Gana who made us so much money. Koeman and Moshiri messed it up. Also, Jim White. He shouldn't have got involved.

not whinging, just had no other way to reply to him but in the thread as he was anon. Also, being banned doesn't make you a bad person. Just a target. You would probably know my previous banned multis better than I, and I am doing no wrong, by talking about Everton, you are just a troublemaker, but what is new?
 
Transfers, wages, agent fees, managers comp, it all comes out to around 1.2billion, which is what we have spent in the last 4 years.

We were 13th when he took us over, we finished this season in 12th.

Just shows how tough this league is.

:coffee:
It shows how pathetic his judgement of coaches and DoF's is.

If I recall correctly, you wanted big Dunc out of the club as you want them all gone, the guy who dared play 2 up front when the whole premier league plays 1 up front apart from maybe 1 team every so often. Why are you trying to cause me trouble?
