was the issue more of Moyes not wanting to leave EFC on verge of season and Randy not wanting to pay £10m for him. I think now he would leave as Everton have time to replace him effectively and there is no prospect of outside investment in everton anytime soon. On the second one, i think Randy is aware to get his man he needs to pay whatever it costs.
If Randy wants him and Moyes is keen (which is where im not confident) then i think we'll get him.
From the titbits I know concerning Mr Moyes it wasn't JUST about money... Moyes said Yes at the beginning of the season.... but only if EFC reached agreement with Villa. They didn't, they just said NO, Go Away...... Moyes would not walk out and RL admires that loyalty he showed the club.
Kenwright worships the ground DM walks on so I'm told by Toffees...he'll fight tooth and nail to keep him, which is why although I am pretty certain Moyes has and remains RL's No 1 target, I think it's not necessarily going to happen.
Edit Add: Having said that my supposed ITK a few days ago told me that RL was after AC big time and he thought he would get him.
As he told me months ago that Young was off to Man Utd practically done & dusted and he also told me quite some time ago that GH would be stepping down at the end of the season, even before his heart attack, I have no reason to doubt him.
