Weren't they both about 30 million. Plus the winger they bought from Palace, who is that good I can't remember his name!

Money doesn't always buy success.Chasing the dream of winning the Premier league is near impossible.
Leicester did it relatively cheaply although righting off their hugh debts for next to nothing helped them build the team that won.Also the so called bigger teams all bombed together that season ,creating perfect conditions for Leicester.
Everton are never going to get to win the title.
They will waste millions trying

Imagine if all clubs were capped the same on their spends - we'd be in the Champions League every year!

Doubt it, he had a bad injury not long after signing, but I think he's ready to go for this season.
Will be like a new signing.

They sign good teams best players for 30m.
We are linked with two average premier league players for just short of that.
Those in glass houses and all that.

Think ademola lookman going for around 20 mil not bad for a fringe player who’s only featured here & there & made a tidy profit on him.
