Sounds just like Teddy Sheringham when he left Spurs.

I don't really think ambition is Everton's problem. Their problem is that their recruitment is terrible and they waste huge sums of money for virtually no return.

Agreed. The owner has stated his ambitions over and over. The problem has been how they have done their business.

Perhaps, though, Richarlison is talking about the attitude of the players currently at the club, which again could be seen as a failure of recruitment.

cue Everton being bought out by THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA who have decided to get in on the sportswashing thing and rehabilitate their reputation following the whole Vietnam thing. Richalison can only watch from the sidelines, enveloped in a deepening miasma of envy and melancholy as his former compadres win trophy after trophy and party with Hunter Biden.
