2018/19 Marco Silva - New Poll Added

[DualityNSNO]

What?

 

[BlueToff]

I am worried that he keeps saying he knows what the problem is and that he doesn't seem to know how to fix it.

Brands should be taking control as well now. He needs to know that we need players. We need a boost (not expecting a signing first day of the window like).

 

[davek]

Not like we didn’t know we needed a forward in the Summer.

Best tell Brands that then. He signs them.

 

[Number_25]

How can anyone be expected to completely shift a dynamic of a team in 6 months?

 

[BlueToff]

And, again, that would be on the manager to make sure it's NOT an issue.

I agree.

But also on the players, surely?

 

[Thomasc]

For one, he just wouldn't come.

Secondly, Mourinho is not 'one of the best managers' in the modern game. The guy's a busted flush. His methods are completely outdated and he needs to spend £200m every window on 28-30 year olds. So no, it would be a dreadful appointment.

I'm not saying Silva is a more proven or better manager. But is he a way forward? Yes.

Does he need to improve. Yes.

Has he been here five months, which is no time at all. Yes.

Sorry mate, that bit is just nuts IMO but each to their own.

Anyway, like I said, not really thinking we should be changing the manager, we are where we are and we have Silva, it was just a thought. Looking like unless we add strikers in January we will actually go backwards this season, despite the huge amount of investment into the calibre of player we had.

Not many managers we could have brought in that would have made us worse than last season after spending a fortune, Marco you legend.

 

[BlueToff]

If we need to sack someone, just bin Dunc off.

What does he do??

(this is a joke)

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

This fanbase has turned into Geordies in the last 5 years.

And like everyone else, you've played your part in that. We all have. We've all been attacking different managers endlessly without looking beyond them and seeing the real problem.

 

[DanEFC92]

Said this to you before, how pathetic are we to allow that woeful result ruin an entire season. Bunch of utter fragile losers.

 

[davek]

Koeman was saying that exact thing publicly, ~26 times if I remember rightly and you never gave him anything, just slated him constantly.

But this is different some how?

That post doesn't make sense to me.

 

[Billy Dean]

Heard him say the word nervous but suspect this is wummery.

Thing is, I dont think anyone could confirm or deny your comments.

Its JonJoe Kenny I feel sorry for.

He said we were in control of the game first half and then after half time got unnecessarily anxious even though he told them there’s no reason to be. IMO he was hinting at a confidence crisis. Similar to what Koeman was saying in his last couple of months

 

[GrandOldTeam]

But he had £200M to spend on one if he wished to spend spome of it there. He didn't. He flirted with signing Giroud and didn't get the deal done. Brands is respinsible for signing the players he now. It's not good enough for him to look at those two and think he's helping Silva out.

We need a striker as matter of urgency.

And Everton's board failed to bring one (Giroud or whoever else) in.

Have to be fair - the lack of striker is a fair shout for Silva, as it was for Koeman: https://www.grandoldteam.com/2017/09/11/early-days/

Silva was lined up for a very long time - it's been a failing of Everton's board for an eternity. Never mind replacing Lukaku, we've needed a striker to compete/support Lukaku.

Silva before the window shut was talking up Tosun and Richarlison as options up front - he was doing so only the other day;

Marco Silva says he is tired of being told he must buy a striker for Everton

[evertonarntwe]

He hasn't been a disgrace.

He has though I'm sure 90% of people will agree

Look, he has been a great manager. He isn't anymore. He gets bored after six months. He falls out with players. He can't be arsed.

We ain't sacking Silva and we ain't getting Jose, though, so it's all irrelevant.
