2020/21 Carlo Ancelotti

[coollino]

He didnt take a salary hit

Look, the narrative is he is getting paid £6 an hour and is managing a team in the Cayman Islands who's bench is actually a shed.

 

[Bluestar]

Completing a title win in each of the top 5 leagues (or first manager to win 4 CL's) will cement his legacy more than getting Everton back in Europe.

It will, far far more.

So we received no compensation then.

If any manager asks for get out clauses in a contract he should never be offered one.

I said this to my brother yesterday. If your looking for a manager that’s taking on a huge project, and you want them to build you a team to challenge for top 4 and take you into our new stadium then your looking on a long term manager. So why the f**** did our board put stuff in a contract that allows him to leave?. Did that not start alarm bells when stuff like that was asked for?. This club are ridiculous.

In this instance, it saved us a severance payment.

Can we close this thread, he has gone. Time to move on. A new chapter.

 

[stevie blott]

Yeah World football now surely.

I think I articulate the question on the minds of most on this forum when I ask "I wonder what Roscoe and Bethany Jo make of all this?". As is his wont, I suspect that what Roscoe has on his mind is not a lot... but BJ is an interesting one. I am wondering whether her trip to Runcorn a fortnight or so back, was an initial reccy, close to Liverpool, to suss out the status of the fatwa on Roscoe (imposed by her own gangsta son no-less!!). Sure, the tabloids reported she bought some new black leather knickers (complete with an 'access all areas' zip) but I read more into it than that.
I guess we'll never know the real story...but , like so many of you, I reckon that there is a huge coincidence in the timing of her trip , and Barney high-tailing it to Spain. The Wolverhampton Tribune has previously reported she has a hankering for not only very young lovers, but also long-aged ones. Barney certainly fulfills the latter criterion. Leather knickers, aged gentlemen?...and then Barney scarpers??...pretty obvious to me what's happened.

You mean it stopped Madrid from having to pay off his contact,we didn't sever anything.

I mean with the team playing the way it was, it was inevitable we would have had to get rid of him, hence it saved us a severanc3 payment.

Apparently the Spanish league title is the only major league he hasn't won too.

Did not know this

I don't believe there were plans to sack him,unless you know something different.

Not that I know either, but the team was awful, and I doubt he would have survived until Christmas.

People are arguing for Bielsa who only takes 12-18 month contracts at a time to take the job for example.

If you think they're the right man, you give them all they want.

Players have release clauses

You obviously know more than anyone else about it. It was alleged until a week ago it would be a Summer of buying better quality players then a push for European football. You remember...the plan when Ancelotti signed.
