Would he be better than Dyche? Almost certainly

Personally though, that isn't enough for me. "Get Jose in" just smacks of the short termism we've gone through under Moshiri.

I want my club to have a medium to long term plan, I want to have an identity to how we play, I'd like all age groups at Everton to be playing similar football, I'd like recruitment for both players and future management decisions to be based around this plan.

I actually couldn't tell you who I want as manager - For 14 of the current 20 managers in the Premier League, this is their first job as a manager in the PL. We seem to have an absolute obsession with "Premier League experience" for no good reason that I can fathom. What I want is for the alehouse shouts for manager to stop (let's not forget there were fans literally protesting outside Goodison against the appointment of Vitor Perreira and for the appointment of Lampard three years ago) and for the people who own us to employ people empowered to make decisions based on as much data as is available to us.

Mourinho would be better than Dyche. I don't doubt that, but it doesn't solve the problem. We'd simply be kicking the can down the road.

In any case, it isn't happening so I don't need to worry about it too much, but whoever the next appointment is will say a lot about the direction the club is heading in.

say if we kick the can to space?

One other factor that might appeal to Mourinho.

City's form and the 115 charges. If they are on the way out, maybe he fancies a crack.

It shows with Forest and Villa over the last year that big strides can be made with good smart player investment. As you say Man City could be in huge bother. Man Utd are a mess. Spurs are up and down like a yo-yo. Newcastle slightly similar to Spurs. Rs if they lose Salah, Van Dijk and Arnold who knows about them next year. If there is good investment in the team, club becomes well run, good manager in place and we are still in the PL next season things can begin to look very much up

didn’t he call roman stuff when he got sacked?

Okay if you’re not having that quote, what about this one.

“I’m never going to a team fighting relegation. It’s too hard.

"It’s more difficult than playing for titles. It has to be very hard emotionally because it’s something that changes lives."

Doubt we’re paying the next manager anymore than what Dyche is on, so I severely doubt Mourinho is going to take a 6million pay cut minimum, to come to fight relegation in the PL.

Plus, I doubt he’s accepting a job from a group that he said the following about..

"I was ‘eliminated’ by someone who knows little about football".

Mourinho might be willing to take a pay cut to return to the Premier League, as he’s already made his fortune. His ego and recent comments suggest he’s eager for one more opportunity to prove his critics wrong. Whether that will be with us is uncertain (definitely not before the end of this season), but it’s clear he’d want another stint with a Premier League club.
