I think this is where Everton fall down - they don’t do enough on the psychology of the players they’re signing.
For players at 72 clubs in England, Everton is always going to be a step up and for 10 clubs a step-down.
If that means we have to accept being a feeder club for a couple of years and deal with players just passing through, I’m fine with this as long as there is a plan that this is just transitional period in the club’s history. It seems to work for Dortmund
I'd be shocked if Spurs don't come in for Pickford. Anything north of £35m and we'd probably take it.
Team under investigation for FFP with possible transfer ban as punishment. Zat thinks it's wise to sell 3/4 of the team in one window.

Utterly pointless this thread until we know which division we’ll be in.

Or even possible for the figures he’s talking.

I don’t think they will be the only ones either, I could see him going to Man Utd as well, even Chelsea might be interested.
It's not me that's missing the context here. My only point was that spending more on a player is not lower risk. That was what you said and that is what I replied to. You're now introducing all sorts of bizarre points that are irrelevant to the point being made. Obviously on a very very basic level it's true - signing Haaland for £150m would be less of a risk than signing Gyokeres for £20m - but in the context of the market we'd actually be shopping in the difference is going to be much, much smaller. Signing Onana for £40m for example, was not inherently less risky than signing Garner for £15m.
Also it should really go without saying that the club (especially this club) thinking something is lower risk and it actually being lower risk are two different things entirely.
United I could possibly see too. Not many keepers really out there at the minute, we're in a good position. I just personally think Spurs will go all out for him with Lloris leaving.
At the same time, we're not in the market to say no to £40m for our goalkeeper should a bid arrive.
If we stay up and Forest go down - spend all we have on Morgan Gibbs-White and a decent striker.
Ideally we can bring in a few more but if not, that gives is adequate creativity and firepower to tilt the odds in our favour.
Do that, and retain what we have and we'll survive next season. Then build again.

yer ideally we would like to breakeven, but another team won't be arsed what we want.
he was linked with crap italian team wasnt he, they wont be paying anything close to 9m
who's paying 10m for keane? i can't see anyone even paying anything for him, he's useless and on massive wages.
It's just a simplistic way of looking at it I think. Baines and Jagielka weren't successes because of where we signed them from, they were successes because they were good. Neville, Howard, and Saha were successes for sure, Lukaku who you've already mentioned, Digne, Mina and Deulofeu to an extent. The list goes on.

We could sign Haaland for £150M and probably break him.
Other than Lukaku, we haven’t really developed or enhanced a striker since Rooney.
