Sanchez wanted

[blueski]

Don’t think its the bids that are the issue; it’s the time spent with them

Why not drop a hopeful bid?

The problem we had was that we spent too much time chasing the unrealistic ones and didn’t spend the majority of time on the realistic ones

[Robioto]

What a load of Bollocks.

[Martip]

People moaned when we showed no ambition.

Folk are still moaning now that we’re showing ambition.

Everton that.

There is showing ambition then doing things for show. The club's hierarchy know that they dont have a cat in hells chance of signing sanchez but will again try and use it as good PR....unfortunatly for so many years this has been the Everton way. I remember when we were apparantly after moutinho.... funnily enough he was up for it and bill shit himself as he didn't have the money leaving him high and dry.

Because there is no hope unless our financial situation or wage structure has completely changed. We've 2 chances of getting Sanchez. We either offer him at least double what he can get anywhere else. 500-600-700k a week and even then there's a good chance he wouldn't be interested or we offer him what city offer players. 300k a week plus the chance to play with another 500m worth of talent each week and win titles. Which unfortunately isn't our financial situation. If we've neither of these to offer him then what's the point of a hopeful bid.

Alan smith but only after Utd had agreed a deal and Alan shearer for less than Newcastle agreed to pay. We don't even pretend well

Not Everton just the fans

I don't see why we don't just work harder at trying to identify the next Sanchez or Costa.

Paying for the best backroom staff -- scouts, data analysts, etc. -- would surely pay more dividends than chasing after every huge name who's about to leave their club.

[di_guyo]

Imagine...if you get frustrated at Arsenal, image playing in this Everton team.

[Confucius]

Yay, another number 10

[gizzblue]

Yay, another number 10

On what planet does he play as a ten ?...generally off the wing or wide forward. .surely

This will be Walsh’s remit. Moshiri however may want to make statements.

It's funny, I just glanced at this thread and got all excited. Then I remembered I was the one who started it.

[Audrey Horne]

How embarrassing. Massively going off Moshiri recently. Dont think he has a fucking clue.

At least we'll have the best stadium in the Conference...

Think he knows fuck all about football which is fine if he realises that. I suspect he thinks himself a bit of an expert. Great for the business side of the club. Weve managed to make the football side shambolic instead though
