Summer transfer window 2023

If it was played today it would be the single most toothless game in Premiership history. Hope that changes before the 12th

Toothless 1-0 will do me just fine

A toothless 1-0 to Fulham won’t though.

That’s the spirit

I didn’t say I agreed with it!

To be fair it is normal in football but it places an onus on strong financial planning, excellent cash flow management and effective financial controls none of which I deem to be Everton strengths in recent years (as a now retired CFO doing non-exec stuff).

Obviously it’s important not to over burden ourselves with annual instalment payments just to get players in the door but when there are obvious new revenue streams coming a year or two down the line it does make sense to push back outgoings til then.

Also got to remember these instalments are not a one way street, from the last accounts there is almost 80 million owed to us within the next 4 years for player sales and those instalments coming in obviously massively balance those going out.

Me too we only won 8 last season. so if we can kick off the season with a win it would be great.

Ready for another underwhelming day

It would be amazing if this Everton team...of all Everton teams...could get us off to a winning start.

They were missing Mitrovic last time we played them and they spanked us 1-3

also expecting Jimenez to suddenly find his scoring boots on his debut...

 

[Tony1985]

Just want a proper, starting number 9, we still haven't replaced Lukaku ffs.

 

[Simon Buttle]

That's a must win game imo, even if it is only 1-0, we have to get our act together this season.

Expect nothing and you'll never be disappointed...

Well we signed a very good player yesterday so hopefully today is as underwhelming as that.

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

He’s dead to me

 

[kiss the crest]

Some new faces and looking like Fulham missing Palhinha and Mitrovic, hopefully a win to get our season off to a positive start

Watched the Fulham game yesterday and seen our game v Wigan, different levels and there has to be change before that game is played, otherwise we will be staring at an early home defeat.
Also they have just signed Jimminez who does well v us

Sorry for being negative but why are we playing teams pre season to not show the standards we need to be at?

Some 2nd Swiss team (1 goal scored +pen )
Then wigan (1 goal )
Bolton and Stoke

Bit early for a 6 pointer but I agree. We need 10 wins so let's start the relegation scrap from the off
