Don't worry about it mate.

There's a good few of you on here who revel in Everton doing crap things so there's clearly a market for this type of thing.

Highly doubt you'll be proved wrong today either.
Yeah, I just throw my money away on a season ticket year in, year out, because I want us to fail.

Behave yourself.
 

Net spend really isn't the issue. We could have a negative net spend every season and so long as the team improved and closed the gap on the elusive top 6 then who cares?

The problem is though, that it's likely that our wage bill has increased significantly - yet our overall team actually looks somewhat worse. Not only that, our best players don't seem to give a flying one about the extra money and want to leave/have left anyway because ultimately it's peanuts comparatively to the others anyway.

Pickford, Keane and Sandro were good acquisitions. This was a good use of a chunk of the Lukaku money, it's just missing the key ingredient... Lukakus replacement.

Signing some young lads for the future is always great to see, especially when you're ousting elite teams to obtain them.

But for me, not sorting key areas of the squad that were largely obvious and pushing out decent squad players despite supposedly wanting to challenge on all fronts, is absolutely not ok.

Strikers? Wingers? Centre back? Left back?

We're an injury to Pickford away from playing Stekelenburg every game. As we have seemingly pushed out Robles for no reason whatsoever.

We are an injury to Keane away from playing Jags and Williams every game.

We are an injury to Rooney away from having the least potent attacking force in the entire league... if we aren't already, that is.

Injury to Baines and we have no left back?

You catch my drift surely.

We were an injury to Lukaku away from having to play Kone etc prior to his departure, and we got very very lucky the lad stayed fit for almost the entire few seasons he had with us. I'm not so sure we'll get that lucky this time, when all things considered if it's going well we are definitely looking at 3 games a week etc.
 
You do seem to enjoy us not doing well.

Just the way you come across mate.
I don't enjoy us not doing well.

I want change from what I have seen my entire life (which is precisely nothing).

We look to have been led a merry dance by our majority shareholder.

He has: kept the old guard still around despite numerous failures, he has sold off major assets, despite saying they were the future to build around.

I'm yet to see where it really has changed now.

There is no point burying our heads in the sand, just so we don't come across as negative.

It's a forum of opinions, my opinion is now that we have a fraud and a liar as our major shareholder, backed up by a whole board full of liars from the previous 20 years.

Have we not just signed more players in one window than we have for quite some time?

Have we just sold our best player and about to sell the second most productive player of last season?

When he came in, in March of last year, if we had of known that he was going to sell: Lukaku, Stones and Barkley, there would have been uproar.

Did the second most productive player not get offered a new contract?
 
If we do sign a quality striker today then it's been a tremendous window.

I think some Evertonians are forgetting themselves. Nothing's changed, really??

If we add the striker today he'll be playing alongside the likes of Schneiderlin, Pickford, Keane, Gueye, Rooney, Sandro, Sigurdsson & Bolasie. It really is an exciting team IF we finish off the summer in style by adding 1 more key player.
