Yep, so many missed boats. Tim Cahil and Tim Howard both offering huge inroads into commercial opportunities for instance - not seized upon. Same with James.

Poorly run as we know
If we buy a new Li Tie, play him 200 mins in one season, I bet Everton will sell a lot of shirts in my country. The media in my place will surely make him like a national hero for playing in the Premier League. Sponsors and commercial engagement will surely emerge.
 

If we can sell Gordon, Holgate and maybe Davies and Doucoure, along with shipping Keane out on loan I think we’ll definitely be financially strong enough to reinforce the team where it’s needed. We’ve got 1 PL loan left and would really only have to replace Gordon outright, the rest could be spent towards a Kudus type midfielder.

Would also mean that we could probably tie down Pickford as we’d not be giving Gordon an absurd contract, on top of getting rid of probably £300k a week extra with the other players.

Let’s hope for a busy 10 days lads.
 

Success is signing a player for cheap money and for that player to then become a top footballer winning thing in a big club. So far jury is very much out. Cucurela has been very poor at chelsea and looks more like a 5 millions player. Bissouma has been ok at spurs but unlikely to win anything anytime soon and trossard is average, a costly mistake here by arsenal as he is not good enough for a starting position. What's good at Brighton is not the individuals but the collective which is working superbly this season.
Yes they don't just scout fantastically and take calculated punts (unlike us) but they buy players with a specific footballing identity and role for them within that in mind we have chopped and changed manager so often we haven't known what we are buying for. It's why some of their players haven't kicked on in other systems.
 
Someone like Gilmour...but with actual talent. ;)

He would probably have to be so tall to go on the Everton ride at the moment.

Someone with a bit of stardust in their boots would excite me and to do what Ward Prowse did against us last week, we are never in control of a game, someone like maybe Matheus Pereira - heard during the week a few clubs have had a sniff at him this market, but apparently after his stint in Saudi he wont qualify for a permit after Brexit.
