2018/19 Marco Silva - New Poll Added

[Abraders]

Another nail in the coffin, in the eyes of myself at least.

I see him doing absolutely nothing to get us where we need to be.

Just stands there dejected.

 

[Bullet]

I fancy Lincoln will knock us out.....either on Saturday or back at their place in a replay.


These pathetic results in the league since Pickford burst our bubble at Anfield will ensure the Cup is well down Silva’s list of priorities and I am expecting a very weak team against Imps.

Not that we will notice.

The First XI is just plain pathetic......or happen apathetic.....any old way.

I'd be astonished if he played a weakened team in the FA cup as there'e a week free either side of the game unlike the League cup. Plus he desperately needs to take the chance to get us winning again if for nothing else his own career.

Manager - Win %
Moyes - 42.1%
Martinez - 42.9%
Koeman - 41.4%
Allardyce - 38.5%
Silva - 34.8%

That's painful reading. Writing is on the wall here.

On paper yes but context needed as well

Moyes - 11 years
Martinez - 3 years
Koeman - 15 months
Allardyce - 7 months
Silva - 6 months

I couldn't give a monkeys about the table position. I just want to see Everton playing better and creating and taking chances.

Silva has an arm tied behind his back with DCL/Tuson.

The problem with this team goes way further than having to deal with DCL/Tosun in attack.

You'd be silly to say he should go now.

You'd be just as silly to say you've got no concerns.

3 biggest concerns for me are;

Credibility.
He has no previous record at any club to support him having the credentials to do anything here. Its blind faith.

Decisiveness.
He seems incapable of making of a proactive change. He doesn't appear to have much conviction - today was a perfect example. Puel made a proactive change at HT, we didn't. When Silva looked completely dead on his feet and put in 2 bad challenges, we readied Davies. They score and he then goes for Bernard? Why? At 0-0 shouldnt any change be to win the game? Why does that change when they score?

Defence.
The constant tinkering and zonal marking.

Obviously I'm not a top flight manager but zonal marking has absolutely no place in the game in my opinion. It's a recipe for disaster

 

[riddick]

I have a sneaking suspicion the issue is less the manager and more the players.

A club can't keep having underperforming teams over and over under different managers and keep blaming them. Silva had hull playing better than this , same as watford. Koeman had Southampton performing better before we sold him down the river etc

We keep changing manager and the same thing is happening. Can't be a coincidence

There are 6new players in the starting 11 usually and 1 there over a year. It can't be the players if you have almost brand new players.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Not really - When you shop at poundland (for managers) you get what you pay for

We didn't pay Poundland prices to get him here either.

 

[havrey0123]

It’s pointless sacking him, we’ll just appoint another “up and coming” and the cycle will continue

We’re a nothing Club, just there. Never will compete. We aim for 7th and if we finish between 15th and 8th then majority of fans will just accept it

He’ll struggle, massively out of his depth but that’s just our issue and that we have to accept

Doesent have to be a "up and coming manager"

I hope you are right.

PROGRESS THO. you've seen us play right?? weve just been unlucky with chances missed!

pahahahahhahahahha

The problem with this team goes way further than having to deal with DCL/Tosun in attack.

It starts with that divvy GK. Then we have no right side...then we have a pop gun attack.

Brands: do your duty FFS.

 

[royvernon39]

The team looked tired. Leicester coped easily with our attacks. It looked bad because it looks as
though these players are really limited and a bog-standard tactic of playing one man up-front and
packing midfield did it for us again.

What has happened to Richarlison? Nothing again.
Corners and free-kicks being underhit...again.
Walcott doing an impersonation of a professional..again.

The only bright spot was that Morgan did not come on..

 

[Fansince1988]

Should get rid now,he was never good enough for the job and IMO never will be. No point dragging it on longer, I’m convinced we will never see good times again with him in charge, we getting back to the end of Koemans time in charge, and Silva has a better squad.

Erm, think you might need to switch the first two names around there mate.

Employ him and Richarlison will turn into a defensive wingback
