And I lately I really started admiring Everton... they brought in some very interesting players... and introduced some of their products plus also brought in a highly intelligent manager.

Ignoring the insane transfer fees in the past couple of years, they'd certainly be near the top of my list: global appeal; ability to secure insane sponsorship deals; a great stadium with almost mythical status; plenty of titles to show for it; and as much as I don't like them, they have a sense of loyalty towards their own. Even their extreme transfer fees, while bad, show that they are willing to go for young talents.
PunkCapitalist wrote:Meh. With the amounts they have spent lately, they don't have much to show for it. Besides, their transfer policy has been truly atrocious going back to the later years of the Ferguson era. In my opinion, the current debacle of their club is down to him; he retired leaving a horrible squad behind which completely lacked in midfield quality. To this day they haven't been able to correct those problems and I would only say Martial, Darmian and Depay have been truly good buys.
