The fact that we were avoiding contact from Everton on the last day confirms my worst fears about our boards attitude.
They are obviously an arrogant bunch of people.
In my world they have missed a major opportunity in failing to sell Zaha and then securing a good striker and right back.
They have clearly failed to grasp the nettle of modern football, clinging on to WZ at all costs.
Had we promoted the Zaha move in June we would have secured £60m for him. 65% of that would have secured a good Russian striker and a good right back.
They flaffed about for weeks with the AWB finally getting £45m for him from a very persistent major club.
They overvalued Zaha for what gain?
If he isn’t playing on Saturday then we don’t even have his services. Total failure.
We need to stop acting like big swinging dicks. Zaha is not worth £100m. He’s not worth £80m. He’s only worth what the market will pay. That is around £60m.
We are all guilty of bigging him up. He comes with his faults which we all know. The biggest clubs didn’t come for him.
We need to PLAN his exit in January WITH him NOW not on the 25th January.
To get him to perform until then we need to help him with a move. He is a young guy. He has ambition way beyond ours and he wants out. Accept that and move on.
We will secure £60m for him so long as he is playing well. If he goes off the boil forget it.
£60m is fantastic. Think positive. It will get us a good striker for £25m and a good right back for £15m (ask Matteo), pay off man u and still have some in the bank.
This will give us a team all wanting to wear the shirt. Far better than what we are left with after the shambles of this summer.
In the meantime our owners need to carefully reflect on where we are and realise that now would be a good time to sell the club and move on. The majority holders already want this. They need to grasp the situation and get the minority shareholders on board to exit. Their time is done.
To maintain our current premier status and equilibrium big changes are needed.

and Everton unlikely to kick him out of the game if they want him in January.
