The Mosh Eleven

I shudder to think. Just look at the players we bought but gave away/sold for a nominal fee:

A Williams £12 mill
M Schneiderlin £25 mill
Y Bolasie £27 mill
G Sigurrdson £45 mill
S Ramirez £5 mill
T Walcott £25 mill
C Tosun £27 mill
Y Mina £27 mill
J Gbamin £25 mill
F Delph £9 mill
A Gomes £25 mill
M Keane (almost certainly) £30 mill

Not including the huge financial hits on Allan, Klassen and Godfrey.

The problem was never spending too much money (it’s about what our club should be spending), it was wasting it on players we recouped nothing from.
All receiving salaries above the going rate at the same time...

Outside the keeper you can make an extremely bang average team with that list 😂

Gbamin and Delph will have to warm the bench.

I think we recouped £2m on that lot (Schneiderlin).

Over £220m spent.

There's definitely a non-value eleven to be talked about, and Gbamin deserves a bit of understanding because I doubt he wanted to suffer such a serious injury that has effectively finished him. Schneiderlin and Tosun I think hurt the most because of how ineffectual they were. And it could only be Everton stuck with a record signing unusable and unsellable for an eventually dropped off field issue. Bolasie got injured as well.

I think the prices have gone up over the last decade. But the 20+ fees were high at the time, offered little vfm. Can’t think of anyone that you would call a 100% success. Pickford the exception
