Everton have said their goodbyes to Goodison Park, and attention will now be turning to life at Bramley-Moore Dock.
David Moyes has dragged the Toffees up the Premier League table since his return, but it is essential for this progress to be built upon going forward.
With that in mind, a busy transfer window lies ahead as The Friedkin Group also look to put their stamp on things on Merseyside.

Everton make Harrison Armstrong announcement
Although supporters at Everton want to see new faces being brought in, TFG will know that PSR restrictions are something to be wary of, and any business may be measured.
Therefore, there could also be several exits from Merseyside, too and a busy transfer window ahead.
MORE TOFFEES STORIES
One man who has been linked with a move away from Goodison is Harrison Armstrong, who is a bright prospect for the Blues.
After getting onto the Everton bench for every game in the first half of the season, the 18-year-old was loaned to Derby County during the winter transfer window, allowing him some first-team minutes.
Now, with the summer transfer window approaching, the midfielder is being linked with another exit, with Blackburn Rovers a potential destination.
The youngster is continuing to impress, too, as it has been announced that Harrison has been called up to the England under-18s squad for their upcoming fixtures with Morocco.
Everton should look to loan Harrison
Harrison’s call-up to the England youth squad highlights just how well he is doing already, and with that in mind, the Blues have to be careful not to lose him too soon.
With the levels that Moyes will want to reach with the Toffees next season, it does seem unlikely that he will become an emerging star, given the experience around him.
However, the midfielder certainly has buckets of potential, and with that in mind, Everton have to look at him with long-term vision and consider loaning him out again, to a higher level.

Armstrong for Derby in the second half of the season.
Given Harrison has succeeded on loan with Derby in the Championship, getting a full campaign of regular minutes could be a massive development opportunity.
This would then allow the Blues to see where the youngster is after another year and judge whether he could have a future on Merseyside.
There is no need to be rash and potentially lose a big asset.
