Duncan Ferguson - The Coach

[mooseatingnome]

I'd rather a manager who tries to play football and fails than one who reverts to hoofball.

Let’s do down but with style.

Well that 4-2-3-1 garbage that Silva was serving him and his predecessors saw us always struggle to score any goals. We’ve struggled to break defensive teams down for years. I’d say with two up front the last two games, we’ve looked far more threatening in the opposing area. Also, you are making an assumption he’d play the same way. This outdated statement makes me laugh, formations go full circle. Everyone will be 4-4-2 again in next few years

I literally said it would be interesting to see how he got on against more defensive teams. I haven’t assumed anything, he said on Sunday he likes the 442

I don't a think it's poison to say that Ferguson should not get the job. Been coach with the last 4 managers and we know how that ended.
Good start for Duncan. Nothing would please me more than for Dunc to do well. Wether he is ready now I'm not sure but if he keeps doing well why not.
What is good for me is to see someone as passionate about Everton as we all our on here. That's what I hated about Koeman and Silva. At least Martinez got it but his teams couldn't defend

u reply with humility and reason, a lesson for others buddy.

If I want entertainment then I watch a film.

I want Everton to win, I dont care how we achieve that.

Yesterday we had 15 or 16 players out injured and we got a draw, how you cant be happy, oh, nevermind, just realised its you Dave.

No.

These players we had out on the pitch...as you told me undr Silva...are all internationals.

Job description.

"Take the team for a game or 2 Dunc? Chelsea first, maybe United away."

"Sound. Will do my best Farhad/Bill"

Batter Chelsea, draw away with no players. Breathes life into the supporters.

Davek. "But it wasnt pretty."

Holgate? DCL? Davies? Baines 2019? Keane is a stretch these days.

Silva didnt have 16 injuries.

My point - as stated - concerns any long term impact of such a disastrous managerial choice.

He's not up to it. A dinosaur.

And using HKs watch handed to him by his widow to push for a job. Pathetic.

He had loads of injuries to contend with - due to the chocolate teapot you support as DoF.

Brands is 2 footing players in training now?

STOP IT JUG HEAD.

Long term? Oh sure. Hasnt got his badges to be there more than a few weeks anyrate. But the short term impact has been sound.

 

[Gilbert..]

Imagine having a manager who runs round on a lap of honour after picking up a point at OT?

"It's just Everton's 6th draw at Old Trafford for 30 years!!!!".

FFS.

He went onto the pitch. Congratulated the players for getting a hard earned decent point away from home. Went to the away end and waved his arms up a few times and thanked them for the support. There was no lap of honour. fabricating up stuff to make it sound more valid makes you look very silly.

It's been ok. The OTT reaction is a worry, becaus it might well force these bone heads in the boardroom to go with him.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

We've spnt 5 years trying to get away from hoofball and some want to resurrect it because they want to indulge their nostalgia trip.

That's the danger here.

Love abit of Hoofball me. We're at our best when we play it. Get on board and give up the crazy notion we're anything other.

He conducted himself like Harry Whiteloaf, manager of a Yorkshire ale house team.

Uncouth and not wanted at EFC. We are blue chip, not fish and chips.
