Brands the chocolate teapot.

The Iran joker confirmed he took charge of the recruitment process for a new manager ahead of brands so what exactly does this man do?

He's paid millions for absolutely nothing.

Okay he's far from the biggest problem the club have (Moshiri) but it's staggering how he's here in a middle management role and doing nothing to justify the money he gets.
Scouting. Recruitment. Contract negotiations. You know, kind of important.
 





You have to laugh.


These things are rarely reported, but we should be looking for 1 year of our current valuation in a fee and his wages paid. I suspect it was less last year but we have leverage this year.

Why else would you bother. The game for us has to be to get as much in a loan fee and wages as possible, then we still own the asset to sell again.

If we bought him for £22.5/£25mil rising to £27.5mil.

Lets say we got a loan fee of £5mil last season...then we get a loan fee of £10mil this coming season = £15mil.

This means that:

1: His book value to us for FFP purposes next summer is 0 so were into pure profit on the books for a sale.

2: Ignoring FFP weve basically got back £15mil so effectively weve just got to get back £7.5mil/£10mil next summer to breakeven.

So depending on the actual loan fee it could be pretty good for us next summer.

Also a £10mil loan fee this summer gives us £50mil to spend on players if theyre on 5 year deals.
 

Zero proof of this. He was just in Holland likely on Everton business.
Zero proof?

Moshiri has come out and told Jim White today that he took over the recruitment. Brands was sidelined.

In Holland on Everton business? Hahaha.

The business was happening without him. It doesn't get more important for a director of football than to pick the team manager.

It shows how much influence or respect he has in the club.
