Moyes will be held back by money.

It appears that the huge amount of cash Everton were going to have to spend on players isn't so huge after all. WHilst no figures have been mentioned, David Moyes appears to have revealed that he doesn't have any where near as much to spend as we thought he did.

Moyes said: "Four to six weeks is not really enough time to observe a club of the stature of Everton. That only lets you scratch the surface, but I have had a look and there are things I would like to suggest to the board which I think may move the club in the right direction.

"We need a strong foundation which we can build on. I know there is not a massive financial outlay available so to build that strong base will take a lot of hard work."

"We have been linked with every Tom, Dick and Harry recently but realistically I know the players we do bring in won't be at the top end of the money market.
So there it is. Not that it's all doom and gloom, our current squad, given a decent run of injury free football, is good enough for a top ten finish, and thats not a bad place to start.
