Everton January 2025 Transfer Thread

That shouldnt matter mate, the DoF employs the new manager or has a huge say because his job is to assemble a squad for them to use.

The reason why were in this mess is because each manager that has came to the club has dictated to the DoF, also the next manager should always be of similar style to the previous one to suit the players.

Thats why Brighton has worked so well, Potter De zerbi and now the new guy. They all play the same way with their own tweaks on the team, that why their transition of managers is smooth.

It shouldn't matter, but it does in the present state we find ourselves.

There's loads wrong with how we've operated over the previous years - and we absolutely haven't used the DoF role correctly.

But given the circumstances inherited by the new owners, and Dyche running away, I'm not surprised in that moment Moyes had some reasonable conditions for taking over a bad team that was getting worse.
