2020/21 Marcel Brands

[Tiny Timmy]

Brands is being paid bucketloads per week and he hasn't signed or moved on any of our squad. What are we actually paying him for???

Are we that badly in the ffp red that we need a rebuild season of doing f all!? He does nothing.

 

[Efcjake]

Remember this fella signed off on Benitez as our next manager.

If that doesn't fill you with confidence I don't know what will.

 

[blueconverse]

Any chance of doing something lad?

7 weeks to go until Brands can put his feet up again until June 2022 - as he doesn't do January's he tells us.

He must be exhausted achiveing all his targets and looking forward to a good rest.

This no transfers in January policy is utterly ridiculous, especially when we have a glaring need to fill. Not going to list all the good signings that have happened in Jan in recent years but there are plenty.

It would be cool if Brands could pull off a surprise and get us someone exciting on loan - a future star who is not yet finding regular playing time or success - Dembele / Fati type. Anyone got any ideas? Even Van de Beek type of player. Would be exciting to get someone like we did Lukaku and either they stay 3 years till their big career move, or we get 1- 2 years on loan to improve the team.

I heard he had a load of boss prospects lined up and ready to sign

then some fat slob moaned to moshiri and vetoed everything in favour of old washed players

Hasn’t moved any of our squad ?
Mai the squad we gave niw is the same as when he came ?
Or are you just making things up ?
Abs of course players like Godfrey just fell into finch farm on the back of unicorns

You don’t expect someone like Brands to blame others for failing players whose talent he himself misjudged…He should have just said about Maher and Ramselaar: ‘Sorry, I was mistaken and it cost PSV too much money…’

“Nevertheless, the presence of the Dutch technical director Brands is by no means a guarantee of success. Although he can buy almost any player that he wants and has attracted many players without producing results. Everton finished in eighth place without European football and despite major investments, the club is now third from the bottom, at a place where you relegate at the end of the season.

“I fear for the position of the Portuguese trainer Marco Silva at Everton. Brands is better at looking in the mirror instead of covering up his mistakes and blaming others.”


2019 quotes from PSV legend Wim Kieft. Proven correct.

 

[Evertondefender]

Wim Kieft history has proven you right sir.

Brands blames everyone but himself, he hides behind coaches like human shield's. Marcel is totally unprofessional, undedicated, lazy, work shy and a chancer more than Steve Walsh ever was.

And yet all the Everton hierarchy somehow miss this?

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Not going to lie I would like to see him shifting a few more of horrendous rats currently donning the blue shirt.

 

[N.S.N.O.]

…i’m on the fence with Brands but you have to have a personal agenda to select one player in the whole world and blame him for not signing him.

No agenda other than my opinion than Brands has been a massive failure for us....Damsgaard was just another example of young talent that he's missed out on, when his reputation is for finding young talent...

Godfrey is the only signing he's made that has fit that bill so far....why aren't more fans questioning this?!....

We aren't gonna get them all, but jeez get more than we have...we're a rich Premier league club with alot of selling points showing the direction the club is going....

We can only compete in the PL if we can scout young talent, Leicester have shown whats possible if you make clever signings....
