Lets Talk About Everton

If you ever think we have been a failure in the transfer market in recent years then console yourself with the fact that it wont be anywhere near as bad as Everton Football Club.

Now struggling nearer the drop zone than a European place feast your eyes on some of these belters.

Nikola Vlasic (£8m),
Theo Walcott (£20m),
Davy Klaassen (£24m),
Jordan Pickford (£30m),
Michael Keane (£30m),
Cenk Tosun (£27m)
Gylfi Sigurdsson (£45m).
Alex Iwobi £34m
Ben Godfey £25m
Allan £22m
Abdoulaye Doucoure £20m
Jean - Phillipe Gbamin £25m
Moise Kean £24m
Andre Gomes £22m
 
wow that's over 350mill of 'talent' of which maybe Pickford and Keane have shown some return having been regulars for a few seasons. But probably not quite to the 30mill level.
 
You could probably draw up a similar list (in length and financial cost) of players the likes of Manchester United and Livervool have wasted money on over the years but they get away with it because they have so much cash they can afford it. But, yeah, Everton are the parasites of the Premier League.
 
Yes and for that investment and where they are now is just a massive failure. At least Man U make Europe although yes they are misspending massively as well.
 
Theres a lot of money wasted there but also some decent signings.

Jean - Phillipe Gbamin £25m??
Moise Kean £24m
Andre Gomes £22m👍

Obvs Gomes had a bad injury. That’s always going to happen to some players.

And who could have predicted the Sigurdsson stuff.
 
You don't think pickford is worth 30mil?
It's difficult to say, he can be brilliant, but he's also got a few gaffs in him. He is more vital to England and how they play than to Everton. He could probably be replaced with a better keeper for them, for 30mill
 
Bolasies team are adrift at the bottom 6 points from safety with just 1 win all season

Britts team are ninth despite the ridiculous investment in Britt and Balotelli. Britt has his 5 goals so far, looks set to get his customary 14 goals. Which is probably good enough for that team in that league
 
Steve Walsh the previous DoF at Everton before the present incumbent was mentioned as an architect of all the bad signings. He was the guy at Leicester who unearthed Mahrez, Kante and Vardy. What a fall from grace.
