I agree here but I just hate how the club is run mate. I don't hate a lot of things, but I hate how much of a mess it is.
And it's the narrative too. Everton, pumping all of that energy into the promotion of the signing, making (rightly) such a big deal of it, marketing in the US and Colombia and all that. Amazing stuff.
And then it all ends in a three-paragraph statement on the website, and Everton go back to being little old Everton and we get a pat on the head.
Whereas actually, five years into a billionaire's tenure, and 3 years into a DoF's tenure, when the whole thing has been about trying to challenge the elite and not be also-rans, we should absolutely be in a position to afford a £150-200k a week player to do just that. Yet, because of previous mistakes, we can't, and not only that, we've gone and hired the one manager in world football who was probably alright with the club helping James out of the door.
