Not bad really considering where we started from though...
Nah I meant to all the media that are pushing the £500 mil + spend line.....the truth is less sensational.

Performance related pay will work because there can be lots individual performance targets too. For example, an easy one would be you get a percentage of the quote pay per appearance, so there is an incentive to play and not be injured or be sitting on the bench. Or you can get more pay for playing two or three consecutive games, for each fans man of the match award or whatever you want. This is the sensible way to get players focused.

Agree with this so much, it's painful to look at the early days and see all the players I just didn't want us to get at the time while there were quality players running around for lesser sides.
Was obvious that Robertson + Maguire were quality in that Hull side and I remember a few rumblings on Everton chats that Robertson looked every bit like a Baines successor.
Van Dijk rumours,
Luis Diaz this season is particularly painful although that's due to James being a melt and wanting more money (now he's got it he hates where he is and wants to have less money to live and play in a better place - irony).
All the has beens that we couldn't get over the line as well, Mata and Witsel rumours, Giroud apparently turning us down after meeting Koeman and saying yes because his wife didn't want to move and he had to be on his best behaviour because he'd just been caught sleeping around.
Not surprised Lukaku left and cited our inability to make signings to take us to the next level as one of the reasons why. Imagine how frustrating it must have been for him knowing the potential in the squad and the investments we were making only to bring in the likes of big Ashley Williams.
Summer of 2019 for me.
Those 2017/18 incomings make my back sweat to this day

Definitely not as bad as is being claimed, but it's all about the clicks and exaggerations, and this year Everton are an easy target for media. They still haven't forgiven us for rejecting their own reject Rafael. I say 'they' because the RS saturate every broadcaster

Ahh got it
agree.Why would i sign a deal where im paid less than at another club? Im only going to sign a contract with clauses if i have no other options and im not an 'in demand' player.
This summer i think is pointing to a huge clearout under the DOF/Manager. If they manage to do good business on the sales fees and reinvest the money well then all is not lost.

Its not about results. Its to calculate the value of the squad compared with when Moshiri took over.

Net spend is relevant to a degree. It's important for context. Us spending £500 million isn't the same as City doing it, because we lost our actual best players during the period of spending. I guarantee, things would be looking much rosier from a footballing perspective if we had managed to keep Lukaku and Stones, and spent the exact same money we have on the incomings (FFP Aside.)
However, we've paid out £500 million for players. It's not good enough. With good management, a £500M outlay should result in a squad full of quality, regardless of money received.

I think if we sell £100mil worth of players this summer we need to find players whose values will be worth £200mil in a season or two.
This sounds obvious but when you look at it, players like Delph and Allan wouldnt be signed. It has to be those like Lookman/Vlasic or Branthwaite where the values double or more.
In short, nothing but u23s unless frees.
