Leighton Baines - next Everton manager (but one)?

[Papa Shango]

Baines doesnt even really like Football right?

More interested in Photography

They said that with Ferguson too.

Just replace photography with punching people.

Probably a very old fashioned take, but I always assumed - even in this day and age - that a manager would have to have to have some snide and grit about them for when the team needs a telling off. Can’t imagine that from Baines. He’d probably sing them a song to try to get the proverbial tune out of them.

The player who stabbed his own manager in the back in-game during commentary?

If that's a characteristic for a good manager, he's got plenty of snide, dont worry about that.

I also thought that. Swear he always talked about going in to music production or something. Thought he couldn’t wait to get out of football with his cash secured

I’m surprised because of this but fair play mate.

I will say though, taking Ferguson, Baines and Unsworth’s previous attempts at caretakering, we need to start our own in-house managerial conveyor belt and like everything, you’ve gotta start somewhere.

If the three above are the embryo for that then great. After all, Liverpool had success with their boot room boys for donkeys years and there’s nothing wrong with nicking ideas.

As long as it's a no Waynes allowed club.

The way he’s gone all mellow, i reckon the Davester has found love with some voluptuous wench?

While I will not be dragged in to your honey trap, sourpuss...I will say this:

I do not remember what match it was but, we won (hell, it could have been under Martinez' first season)...anyhow, before it ever got to post-match interviews I thought to myself "damn, we really mixed it up well".

He was interviewed after that match and said the exact same thing, apart from the expletive. I implore someone to find it, if they can

I have my reasons for being a staunch fanatic but, for my personal take on how football "should be played", that's why I would be all-in; literally one comment. I mean, talk about "hit and hope"...

As ever, we'll see.

Guillem Balague, not that I really give a flying f about him, is going around spouting that the heads of all slackers at the club are going to be chopped by Benitez...so he may not even be around much longer, if LB3 lives up to your past expectations.

Well, RB appears to like what he's heard about Baines. He's heading into the first team coaching staff and off to the US on tour with Benitez. It's likely Benitez will have spoken to coaches at the club prior to taking over at FF (and asked around about them too).

That's why these are called forums and not research centres.

Sorry, I missed the bit where forum translated to “make stuff up and state it as fact”

And pigeons!

Is this your first day here?

I forgot about his pigeons. Wonder if he still fancies them (that's the technical term isn't it?)

This came to me earlier when I was thinking about the absolute dogs breakfast of managerial types we've had. We are going to see a blue go out and do well at some club sometime soon and they'll be rightly in the frame for the Everton job and momentum will be with them to get that job. That's what's happened on numerous occasions with Everton and I expect it to happen again.

It wont be Ferguson; hes just chuffed to be employed with a decent salary. Rooney I dont see pulling up trees. If Benitez sees something in Baines and Baines steps up like Arteta did at City and gets the taste for the top job, he looks (in theory) to be a credible candidate for the future. That's all I'm suggesting here.

I don't know what your game is here, but I'm enjoying it immensely.
