Striker Louis Saha has urged Everton's fans to trust the club after another quiet summer in the transfer market.
Only young defender Eric Dier, a loan signing from Sporting Lisbon, has arrived at Goodison Park, with James Vaughan and Iain Turner leaving the club.
A section of fans have continued to voice their discontent with a perceived lack of investment in the playing squad, but Frenchman Saha has faith in the people running the club, and feels supporters should do too.
He said: "It's not the right way to start a season but I'm here to kick the ball and make sure we're winning games. I understand their concern but they have to be confident in the team and the squad.
"They should know the chairman and the board and the manager are trying hard. They're desperate to do something but if they're not doing something it's because they've got big reasons for that. You have to trust them. We trust them as players."

Do you have any evidence or a link detailing the 'unofficial loans made to his mate' you mention? Would genuinely like to have a look.

Unofficial to strong a word perhaps, as the loans were above board, however they were interest free and I am sure that any true business people amongst you would not do that without some kind of strings attached, I know I never have.

I'm not sure which loans you mean. Do you have a link to this info or is it rumour?
If they do exist, who borrowed from who?
If it helps, zero interest loans are far from uncommon, especially between a company and its employees/directors. It's considered a benefit.
And the lendee might get it interest free from the lender, but they still have to pay tax on it i.e the official rate determined by the treasury, so it's not really interest free, just cheaper borrowing. The tax man will always get theirs.
As for 'strings', you make it sound seedy and underhand. It's business. Do you think the Everton board is the only board in the world, football or otherwise, to look after their own where they can?

I bet people would be happier with full interest loans like Learner does at Villa?
