Brands was not good. He got Silva sacked with his woeful recruitment the summer after we sold Gueye.
Kean
Sidibe
Iwobi
Gbamin
Delph
All for about 100m quid
Horrendous
Probably about 20 million per year in wages on that lot.

I have defended Thelwell on here simply because, unless you are there working with him, no one knows that he is poor when you consider who he is working for. There is too much circumstantial evidence that things were crap before he rocked up, to say it is all on him or even partially on him, but equally I don’t understand how anyone can say he is doing a good job, when there is no way of knowing if he is performing poorly.
No one knows, but they see the result of games, of seasons and of transfer windows, look around to blame (what would be the third sucessive) the DoF. He seems to be the whipping boy (which probably comes with the territory), even though we know Moshiri and Kenwright should be given a restraining order against Everton.
The issues were here before he come and he does not look to have solved them. I don’t know about anyone else, but I have to do what my boss tells me and I can only spend in the budget what is available. I am pretty sure it’s the same for a lot of poster on here and it also applies to Thelwell.
Another 50mil right there plus wages. I don't think Thelwells up to it, but anyone who thinks Brands was good for us needs their heads examined.
*koeman hidsBingo. We are in this financial hole because of Brands and Walsh before him.
Doesn't he have major injury concerns ?Should have signed Tierney on loan from Arsenal
In hindsight , I agree totally agree mate. Sadly , I have to admit though , that I was massively enthusiastic at the time.The Allan Godfrey James window was not good either.
Yes, would have been a shocking move, totally not suited for the PL and there is a reason he has ended up at Real Sociedad.Doesn't he have major injury concerns ?
Allan Godfrey James was a fantastic striker for us in the 30’s. Won’t have a bad word said about himThe Allan Godfrey James window was not good either.
That was the season we finished 8th, right?
Spot on, James was an exceptional talent for Everton, a gifted player one of the most natural footballers that's played for EFC, since Bally and Harvey.Allan Godfrey James was a fantastic striker for us in the 30’s. Won’t have a bad word said about him
Yep.But anyway.
I was quick to have a pop at the fella for his inaction, but all in all im quite pleased with the signings hes made so far.
Depends how they play football, but on paper its a decent window so far.
Get a few out the door and a sneaky 1 or 2 in and hats off to the fella.
