    To be fair they were paying Moyes around £4.5m per year, and a lot of Everton fans have said Martinez was on more than that. Apparently Kenwright feels that no one should earn more than the manager.

    It sounds like the owner just decided Koeman was the one, and that he would spend whatever it took to get him. It's being implied that others preferred Emery and/or De Boer but he overruled them.

    Should have got Rodgers when you had chance

    Needs an half decent manager when you lose influential staff every season

    Perhaps he liked the fact that Koeman never breaks contracts. #sarcasmmode

    True, we will get a good manager in. But after the last 2 summers us fans wanted a nice quiet one with a couple of departures and one or 2 good signings.

    Obviously £7m a year is not enough to sustain LD's lifestyle, he's earning a bit more pocket money from the Mirror... £££££....

    I'd be surprised to see us spend £70m, I'm talking net spend here so on top of whatever we get for Wanyama and any other sales.

    Interesting to read the released players list, Everton have released 5 more first team squad players - Gibson, Hibbert, Pienaar, Mattioni and Osman plus they had already released keeper Tim Howard. This £100m is being stretched a little far bearing in mind they had a relatively small squad like us

    That's a giant pile of wages off the books though, and those five outfield players combined for just 620 minutes...since he's the universal measure of small sums, together they played less than 60% as much as Cuco Martina. Probably won't need to do much to replace them.

    That's what I said earlier...Everton need to spend more than us because of their squad. £100 mill is about 7 players @ 15 million each with wages on top. I reckon he will have to spend more than that as prices will go up. Considering what they are offering Koeman, their new owner will probably throw silly money at players to get the ones he wants....let's hope they aren't after the same players as us.
