Marcel Brands

[davek]

The point I'm making is we just don't know.

If he has been fully involved and made decisions then yeah terrible.

If he has been overruled repeatedly them why was he even there?

He's damned either way: incompetent or too weak to carry out the role.

'But Benitez made it clear to Moshiri after being told he will be given money to spend in January that he wanted to live or die by his own transfer dealings.'

???????????????????

If January comes and goes without much activity and performances barely pick up then Benitez should be given the bullet

By the way: Mr Shouty in the Main Stand who collared Brands...where does he stand in Everton folklore now?

Right up there for me.

I wonder if “Did yous recruit dem players” will become the Kevin Brock moment of this generation

One down 4 to go

They need to either sack Benitez or give him full control over the playing side. Let him bring who he likes in and that includes the coaching staff. No more of Kenwrights insistence on keeping his love children. They've done nothing under all the managers they've worked with, why should it be any different now.

 

[Zeitgeist]

To be fair...our better players he had no involvement with:

Walsh - DCL
Silva - Richarlison
Carlo - James, Allan
Benitez - Gray, Townsend

He's got Mina and Digne as successful signings.

Who signed doucoure?

 

[barneygumble]

Then why sign a 3 year deal recently?

Why wouldn’t you?

Put yourself in the same position? Multi million deal? And if you’re sacked you get a big payout.

Let alone dividends for being a director.

Ha Ha Ha.

 

[Nymzee]

Least he can't be blamed for any awful transfers going forwards.

Turned you all inside out and sending you for a Scouse pie

 

[random]

The problems have piled up in recent months. Against Brands' wishes, the club appointed Rafael Benitez as trainer. He did business directly with owner Fahrad Moshiri to attract new players and sidelined Brands.


Straight from Brand's himself given the source.

and yet he didn't walk when he was undermined and his position became untenable, but instead he was happy to sit and take the money.

another leech

He's damned either way: incompetent or too weak to carry out the role.

Agreed

 

[Tubey]

Ah you must be right and we signed him off of the back of Newcastle playing Leicester one time years ago.

Pull the other one Tubey. You're eating too kuch of the BS theoneandonly is peddling.

I was taking that Dutch report on Brands saying he was sidelined and Moshiri/Benitez controlled things in the summer.

 

[LocalNative]

We'll go roaring out against Arsenal now and give them a pasting.

Brandstastrophe is over.

You don't really believe that do you? He has no bearing on the teams performances, we still have the negative, sorry I mean pragmatic, Benitez who's beginning to lose the dressing room with his negative tactics.

Brands hasn't been a success here but he's not the biggest problem at the moment.

Who signed doucoure?

Give the dog a bone with that then
