2020/21 Marcel Brands

[billyblue80]

He needs to pick the new coach, Mosh picked Silva and Carlo... Brands is meant to be dof he needs to set the tone...

 

[BlueStevie35]

...he turned Celtic down for a reason....

Yeah he apparently wanted a self appointed DOF and Celtic weren’t up for it

Howe would be a disaster he is weaker than our players.

We're really going to see now if the DoF position is being used correctly at Everton, or if it's a layer of additional bureaucracy that we've foolishly hindered ourselves with because the more fashionable clubs use it.

Brands should have a clear target in mind and his should be the deciding vote on who we appoint. He should then give the new manager a list on their first day in the office of players that are being sold on, and a list of players that are being brought in.

I have lost a lot of faith in Brands as his performance is extremely underwhelming, but we've given him a new contract so he needs to be empowered now. He might as well be let go tomorrow if Moshiri and Kenwright are going to handle the search for a new manager.

I agree
We need to understand and see in practice what is role and influence is.
DoF is supposed to bring continuity of vision

 

[BlueToff]

Time to step up then, and if he doesn't feel he's being allowed to do the job, then leave

 

[BlueToff]

This is precisely the situation why you'd have a DoF in place. So the wheels can keep turning.

I don't blame him for Ancelotti leaving, btw. That's on Carlo.

You know it'll be Moshiri choosing again.

This feller's a hologram.

 

[KaiserEFC]

He’s finally after 3 years got the reins to be a proper DoF. I’m interested to see what happens

As a pro-Marcel guy...

...it's also on Marcel for picking him.

If he did.

 

[Martin Alvito]

If he did.

If he didn't, that's a different problem.

 

[Carlito]

This goof finally has his chance to turn us into Watford.

He's already got the mishmash squad in place. Just needs to decide which little-known Iberian coach is going to come in and pretend to not speak English whenever we get beat.

 

[Nymzee]

If he didn't, that's a different problem.

The next appointment will confirm whether he did or not.

 

[Martin Alvito]

The next appointment will confirm whether he did or not.

Fair enough. Though personally, I won't blame him if he fails to lure Conte on a similar salary.

...he turned Celtic down for a reason....

Yes, but getting the job at Everton was not the reason.
