    Aye that's it. It was all Rafa.

    Though, they did not buy them when he was there, and did when he wasn't!

    Delusion.. Of course he walked away, he didn't sign a new contract or a contract extension. He's the one who spent £30 million on Almiron and Joelinton was scouted on his watch. Nowt like rewriting history

    £20m on Almiron, and he didn’t want Joelinton, but don’t let facts get in the way of your story.

    How do you know (the Joelinton bit)? I don’t claim to at all. We’re all speculating

    Haven’t got a link, but it was common knowledge at the time Benitez didn’t want him. He was signed pretty much soon after he went, and either the day bruce joined, or the day after. Ashley was intent on him for some reason?

    Ashley was taking money out of the club with the jolinton deal, there's no way on Gods earth all of that £40 million quid went to Hoffenheim.

    Certainly something fishy about that deal. As I said earlier, Benitez didn’t want him and he was signed the day before, or the day, Bruce was appointed. Yet we were linked with him for months.

    a significant number of your fans blamed Bruce for wasting that money!

    Joe Linton was welcomed like a hero.

    Not because anyone knew a thing about him, but because he cost a lot of money. They hadn't been spending money of that sort, and this was all Ashley's fault. Then they were, and that was all his " fault " as well!

    Nothing will ever satisfy them. They are like a sixty year old , looking in the mirror, seeing a twenty year old looking out, and then getting angry when they are told the truth.

    Wow. Slightly tetchy somb. You’re normally a little more balanced on here but hey ho. (And you’re a mag I have more respect for than to be looking fir an argument)

    They absolutely were by the way. You, probably not, as you have always been more balanced. But loads of fans slagged Bruce fir the signing

    If you look at the mags board they call Everton scouse mackems or similar.
    Always makes me chuckle.
    Do they think they are as successful as Liverpool ? Hahahaha.
    Newsflash, they're not as successful as Liverpool Everton or Sunderland <laugh><laugh><laugh>


    Sad delusional pricks.
