Also, in regards to a post I made the other day that has fallen off the bottom of the Banter page, I'm not worried we're becoming Liverpool because we're spending lots of money, and I am actually really happy with the signings so far, it was just the link with Brahimi (a player we DON'T need) that worried me a bit.

As I said, we're a few great investments away from shooting up the table, but if we start signing players just because we like the look of them, not because we need them, then we'll do a Liverpool and just tread water. Competition is good in a squad, but having too many players in a position just causes issues.

I'd much rather the money for Brahimi was invested in a solid backup striker, fullback or first team keeper.

That's why RK is manager of EVERTON FC and not you its only your thoughts that we don't need a player like bra him I personally don't think for one minute that RK and ST would bother scouring Europe and England if we did not require the right personal the aquisitions so far have been spot on don't you think let the people in place make the decisions i'm sure they will come up trumps yet again.

Your entitled to your opinion Ander Barkley and don't think people are trying to put you down. I understand where your coming from. Imo we don't need anymore CM but it looks like we might sign another.

Truth is we don't know RK's plans. He might intend to sell McCarthy, Gibson and Cleverly and this might be the reason he's looking to bring in another.

If we still had the phenomenal one I would be worried. We have more than capable people recruiting and making the decisions now. Much better than you and I or pretty much anyone on this site. That's why I'm not worried and am looking forward to the coming seasons.

They no doubt will make some mistakes as they are human like everyone. But they are up there with the best at what they do. I have every faith in the team in place.

My advice Ander is sit back and enjoy the ride.

NBTB I also agree that RK has decided that the midfielders of McCarthy, Gibson and Cleverly are just not up to it. He probably feels the same about Lennon too. As for Niasse and McGeady, I think everyone feels the same. This was the point I used to bang on and on about. Players like these play so many games without actually making a difference. to some degree Lennon did. aand Gibson. but theothers are just efficient players who do not change things. Barry also is a bit like this. But Bolasi and Gueye have the ability to get forwards and scare the opponents defence to you know what. let's hope the signings keep coming in and we change the squad with more quality. Although I think the money is stupid, it is stupid for everyone. I did think we should have had a go for Defour. Burnley got a quality player for 7.1 million. Williams is exactly another we needed. How mny goals did we concede last season from crosses and corners? Loads. At last we do seem to have people making the right decisions for our club.

NBTB, I agree that we need a new CM if he does intend on getting rid of McCarthy, Gibson and Cleverly, but Brahimi isn't a centre mid. He's yet another tricky winger. I do agree completely that Koeman being in charge makes me more confident in the moves, but we still have the same scouting staff and there has been far too many terrible signings in the past for me to just blindly believe that everything is now perfect.

I know Brahimi is a winger. I was using it as an example where I don't agree with players being signed for certain positions. But the point is I don't know RK's intentions. Only he does so therefore he is acting to meet these intentions. I like everyone else am only second guessing.

You mentioned in your original post that you were concerned about signing too many players for the one position. This was what I was referring to.

I'm happy enough as I have every faith in RK.

Degsy the standard has been raised with players but I can't see all 3 going. Seen your positive post the other day. Keep them coning. Have a feeling you will have plenty of opportunities to.
