Marco Silva

[leslad]

Have we not learned about talking about 'money being no object' in the media, which then allows clubs to hold us to ransom over what is often the latest flavour of the month.

Hope the club have done proper research this time.

He has his credentials - relegated - plays fast possession football - better than Fat Sam though!
I feel Unsy will get a few more games than someone not in the betting odds or outsider will get the job ?
who ? we never expected Koeman!

Once we wanted koeman tho we got him that's the thing. Unless silva says ef of Everton moshiri will get his man. But it's ultimately upto silva what he does

 

[orly]

I was right about your size tenslol - it's just the severance pay from Watford we are talking not his salary and backroom staff wages here!
also why chase someone who Watford will clearly not even let us talk too -if he was a top - top manager I could understand it but were they not a team who collapsed under his eyes when we beat the 3-2?

I saw a team with Jose Mourinho in charge lose to Steven Naismith hatrrick, so the top manager bit is void too

 

[Brennan]

Sick of people making this argument. Pep and Pochettino have never won something in this country either, must mean they're badly gash.

Not what I implied is it you queg

Did he not get the sack later on?

It's 48 hours now since the story broke about Silva currently being Everton's No 1 target.......has anyone read or heard Silva saying he does NOT want the job?

 

[Real_madras]

Lol. There's spankings and then there's 6 goal defeats at home.

I agree but City would of done that to anyone that day.

I don't think so, but no manager worth their salt would say that anyway. It pays to be wanted and to have options and I'm sure his advisors tell him so too. He will likely be asked at his next press conference. All he has to say is that he is happy at Watford and is concentrating on the game at the weekend. It is like a courtship ritual, the more you avoid the question, the more interested you are.

But when does a manager ever do that? Realistically managers only ever talk in press conferences and before/after a game. It would be pretty odd for Silva to come out and say anything about your interest considering neither ourselves or EFC have said anything official. So far there are no facts to this story, just heavy rumours. The two heaviest being that you have made an approach and that we have unequivocally said no chance. Fans of both clubs can read between the lines of that to suit their own agenda! Seems most of you are holding on to the line of it only being a matter of time given similar instances in the past. Whilst most of us are choosing to believe/hope that when our board says no, it means no as has always been the case with our owners in the past.

One thing I can assure EFC fans unfamiliar with our (WFC) owners - they are ruthless. But extremely strong businessmen - second maybe only to Levy I’d say. You may want him, he may want to leave. But it won’t be nearly as easy as that with our owners. I can safely say you are in for some hellish negotiations if this is to work in your favour!

 

[BrendanGOT]

Yes but wasted - surely he should have told koeman if you sell our leading goalscorer what's your plan B to replace him ? oh you're buying 3 no 10s?

He's not a scout or football coach, he hired people to do said job and trusted them with money. They screwed up and one was subsequently sacked, now he'll have to spend more money when what was spent should have covered us til summer at least. Koeman and Walsh are solely to blame.

Have them gangsters finished off Ross yet Joey?

 

[efcjames]

Lol, he'll get us midtable next season then bugger off to another club.

 

[matty1878]

If silva says tomorrow I'm staying at Watford for the Watford project then that's that. If he says he doesn't want to talk about it then that's more interesting

Yes

 

[Pat Butcher]

Hope we get him, looks to get the best out of the players he has which we could do with
