I have a question for Ed002 or Ed025 if you don't mind giving your opinion. Completely understand it may just be guesswork though as it's likely not 'out there's information.
Judging by the players we've signed this Summer, and those strongly linked, they seem to be of a very definite change in profile to the squad we've had lately. Young, attacking, pacey, more oriented towards an attacking approach to games. - Do you believe these are players discussed and agreed upon with Mr Dyche? They don't look as though they fit in with the style of play he's been utilizing thus far with us so I'm curious whether he just wants to implement a new plan now that he has the opportunity to bring in 'his' players, or whether it could be that Mr. Thelwell is working off a different brief/ approach with the view to a new Manager taking charge upon ownership completion?
As I say, it's a matter of opinion/ guesstimation right now but personally feels to me like a very different transfer market approach than our typical trend.
{Ed002's Note - Everton are doing what they can. Mr Dyche is largely a periphiral figure.}

I think Sean is assembling this Team it’s what we have been crying out for, as you say young and pacey, let’s hope there’s more to come eh.

Thank you Ed002.
Very interesting that you say Mr. Dyche is largely a peripheral figure. I don't think that's a bad thing, a Manager/ Head Coach who has the ability to work with what he has or is given to him demonstrates a valuable skill set to many clubs who operate this way. I like it. The job is to motivate, coach the improvement and figure out a way to win, nothing more nothing less.
Do you have a preference towards a Manager/ Head Coach? - One in this situation, or one who wants/ gets a big say in transfer policy? I'm not sure I like the thought of someone taking so much power personally.
{Ed002's Note - I understand Friedkin has asked advice on replacing Dyche and has a couple of options identified but there is nother certain at this time with the takeover still being in progress. One of those recommended to Friedkin is Thomas Tuchel - but I am not sure he would be interested. Perhaps give Dyche a few months.}
