No not really. I know they've brought in a number of players with the money they made. I can't say I pay too much attention or know how good the players they brought are - well I know about Rooney (he's always been overrated) that's about it.
But if the question has been posed, as it has in the OP then surely there's got to be some merit in that?
I think, from our point - those who are quick to brush Everton off maybe right in their dismissal of them, but that shouldn't mean everything in Red is hunky dory with re. to our transfers. Not saying you have, as I'm sure I've seen a whinge or two from you about our transfer activity. If we continue to have poor windows, evolution will change the order of things.
Wasn't so hard now, was it.
Glad we agree on Rooney being overrated, one less player to worry about there.
In terms of our activity, I've been on the fence all summer and haven't taken any of the stories about signings all that seriously because they are constantly contradicting each other. Sorry to disappoint.
Though, the whole public apology thing I have found very embarrassing, not been on the fence about that.
There could be a shift, you're right, but is it going to happen? I doubt it, very much like. It's not like when City came into their money, they were trying to sign the best possible players and somehow managed to bag Robinho for a start, which kind of set them on their way in terms of the bigger name players, despite him being crap for them most of the time he was there. Everton though, they've signed Keane, some guy from Ajax who from what I can gather isn't all that and completely bottled it in the Europa Final, Pickford who is just going to be a younger Migs IMO and no better than Steklenburg or Joel and Rooney. Despite us not being as active as perhaps thought, we haven't sold our best player that we have had carrying us for the last couple of years and IMO, Salah is better than the signings they've made. I'll even take a punt to say Solanke will prove to be better too.
