Looking at Rafa's words

[gogz_86]

I actually think we could have done well if it wasn't for some selfish mercenaries....the fact that Ashley is a complete and utter ****e isn't going to change the reality...

Some of these idiot mercenaries should have left the moment Rafa told them they're not part of his plans...

Lazaar
Hanley
Krul (although I quite liked him)
Colback
Saivet
Haidara
Riviere

All these would free up £300k per week and allow for some good loan signing...you could offer 3 quality player £100k a week on loan basis just for the year...

I think Rafa has realised that Ashley won't do anything even if we are relegated. He has reached a point where he won't pump and more money in and the biggest fear is that if we get relegated again....he won't bank roll the club...and the shoe string championship budget will be a nightmare....we're in big trouble if we don't survive this season...the only positive is next years fresh tv rights income

U seem to forget we have Ashley as owner, even if we had 500 grand a week spare he wouldn't pay any player 100 grand a week

I honestly believe that Rafa and or charnley are controlling transfers...Ashley has made it clear that the club should generate its on funds and sustain itself....

In every interview, Rafa has stressed that he needs to trim the squad first....to enable him to free up some wages that could go into loan signings...

And we have to be sure of staying up to be involved with that. Left to Ashley and Charnley that can't be guaranteed.

With the new football revolution in China....we can only hope we can get a Chinese consurtium to take over from Ashley before it's too late....

Everton have spent north of £150m...that's ambition...

Ashley is not the right person to own any football club....football clubs should be owned by people with the desire to show ambition to be at the top...we have certainly lost the plot under Ashley and he pretty much doesn't give an 'f' about the club....why did you buy the club in the first place you idiot...there's no money to be made in football...it's not a business...it's a passion...it's an expense...
