The Everton Forum • Re: Everton v Aston Villa
They were fine.
They looked to me like a good team lacking a cutting edge, which makes sense because PSR issues seem to have boxed them out of affording the top level talent they need to maintain their performance levels from recent seasons.
They paid a lot of money to loan the likes of Asensio and Coutinho and Onana isn’t nearly as good as the fee they paid for him. You can’t afford expensive mistakes unless you’re one of the established money teams, it’s why PSR/FFP are a bit shit.
