As much as I am for Jose 100%. I am still positive whomever we have as manager we are in for a ride ahead. Few bumps along the way of course, but it appears there is a clear ambition now at Everton we haven't seen in 3 decades.
I am excited.
Our next Manager may only last a season or two for all we know until we achieve success with the one after that.
No guarantees.
But we are clearly back in the ball game again after sitting in the stands eating hot dogs for too long.

Jose Mourinho in shock talks with Paris Saint-Germain as Manchester United risk missing out on former Chelsea boss
  • Manchester United have been heavily linked with move for Jose Mourinho
  • The former Chelsea boss is now in talks with French champions PSG
  • Manchester United risk missing out on Mourinho unless they act quickly
  • Louis van Gaal is under pressure and could be sacked after FA Cup final

    Jose Mourinho is in talks with Paris Saint-Germain and could move to the French champions unless Manchester United act quickly.

    Mourinho is the prime contender to replace Louis van Gaal should United sack the Dutchman after Saturday's FA Cup Final.

    But Mourinho, 53 wants a deal agreed by next week and unless United make their move quickly they could miss out on the Portuguese.

    The news pushes United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward into a corner regarding the club's interest in the out-of-work boss.

    The former Chelsea manager views replacing Laurent Blanc at PSG as an excellent opportunity, particularly with the vast transfer budget that is likely to accompany his potential appointment.

    And the fact Mourinho is ready to take the reins in the French capital could force Woodward's hand one way or another.


    United are under pressure to make a decision as their Spain goalkeeper David de Gea, the club’s player of the year, wants to move if Van Gaal remains in his job. The 25-year-old is still wanted by Real Madrid, his hometown club.

    Blanc's position was thought to be safe having signed a contract extension earlier this year.

    However, the club's failure to make it past the Champions League quarter-finals has forced president Nasser Al-Khelaifi into a rethink.

    Mourinho's Champions League pedigree makes him the obvious candidate to replace Blanc should they decide to replace the Frenchman.

    And PSG's move for Mourinho is likely to accelerate United's decision to either persist with Van Gaal or follow through with initial plans to bring Mourinho to Old Trafford.

Hopefully so. Until the article you quoted, I thought we actually have a shot at Mourinho, not that I am gah-gah about him. Hopefully all this silence means we're gunning for the tougher ones to get.

Well, depends, he gives me the mercenary vibe, so won't be surprised if he goes to PSG. I can get behind him, but def not my first choice.
