@Eggs ia Stephen Warnock...
Numbers totally off here yet again and zero mitgation...its absolutely bewildering how so called 'experts' (lol) or ex pros asked for a quote can literally lie like this...
Stephen Warnock has slammed Kevin Thelwell for his poor recruitment at Everton over the last couple of seasons.
The Toffees are currently a lowly 15th in the Premier League table and, while they spent a fair bit of money in the summer to bolster their ranks, things haven’t quite gone to plan.
Players such as Jake O’Brien have barely had a chance to prove their worth, and while others such as Iliman Ndiaye have been an instant hit, it feels like Thelwell should have done far better.
Warnock was speaking about Everton’s recruitment live on Sky Sports News (16 December, 12:30pm) and shared that he thinks somebody needs to be held “accountable” for the wastage of money at the club.
“There needs to be an understanding of how the club’s run. Since Farhad Moshiri took over, there’s no clear direction. The other thing that needs more accountability is the signings. Kevin Thelwell is in charge now and has spent an awful lot of money,” he said.
“He’s spent an awful lot and got away with it. A lot of people say ‘Everton haven’t got money’. They signed Beto for £37million – he’s on the bench. There are lots of others – [Youssef] Chermiti for, what, £20m. It hasn’t worked.
Straight away, you have two strikers for more than £50m. Why is Thelwell not accountable for those signings? Lindstrom has come in for £20m – on the bench. O’Brien comes in for £20m – not played. They have money but don’t know how to spend it. Yet nobody is accountable for it.”
