The acquisition of koeman has raised a few eyebrows in the media (basically they have under estimated the ambition of Moshiri) but I've no doubt should we land monchi 'the biggest fish of all from the finest waters' then that is the statement of intent that will make the media sit up and notice the revolution that is taking place. All conducted in the Everton way 'quietly and understated'.

If it wasn't for @The Esk we would still be waiting on FDB or even worse, getting our info off Sky sources lol

Do you buy into the rumoured £100m transfer kitty or believe it could be higher? Given the oft-stated ambition we now have, and the targets we are setting ourselves I'm not sure £100m is going to stretch that far. It will allow us to make some initial big strides but then we would have to invest again to kick on from there.

100m (if true) is a very significant amount in the hands of monchi, when you look at the bargains he has unearthed at Sevilla.

But his remit at Everton (assuming he is coming) would be very different to that when at Sevilla, a club that for several seasons operated with few funds and having to sell their best players.

That's why the ability to trade players is important until we increase revenues from a new stadium and commercial/sponsorship activities.

Let's say we spend £150 million on 5 players (each on 4 year contracts) this summer each earning an average of £100,000 per week.

In accounting terms that equates to £26 million in wages and £37.5 million in player depreciation - a total of £62.5 million deducted from the P&L account. All other income and costs being equal we can live with that without a problem. However we can not repeat that exercise the following without generating player trading profits or an increase income in year 2 of this expansionary phase. That's why the biggest clubs periodically trade players - in accounting terms it allows the opportunity to keep acquiring new players whilst keeping within the PL rules/FFP in terms of over spending.

We can do this for a few years - 3 or 4 probably - that's why we need a clever DoF, increased income from a new stadium, greater performance revenues (Including CL?) and commercial/sponsorship revenues.

I've no doubt we will do this, it's just an explanation of what's required.
