Just two days after the Merseyside club revealed 777 Partners as their new majority shareholder, Everton will play host to Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
The Toffees have yet to win a game in the top flight this year and are destined to flirt with the bottom half of the table for another agonizing nine months. This is a similar situation for many of the teams covered by the multi-club model operated by 777.
Everton was one of only four Premier League clubs to make a profit during the summer transfer window in an effort to lessen the financial chaos that 777 Partners is inheriting.
In the off-season, only Chelsea recorded a higher net spend than Arsenal.
That outlay has helped the Gunners to ten points from four games despite mixed displays. Yet, as Everton can attest, it can be difficult to get results in the Premier League even when playing well.
