2019/20 Marco Silva

[stamullenblue]

Tall order agreed for any manager to walk in to - keep Silva we loose every game !! If the club don’t sack him by tomorrow night we deserve what we get .

 

[wiggum23]

If it’s true, the Board ( again ) are waitin for us to be embrassed on live tv then will do it. Utter disgrace

Or they are waiting for Rafael to become available......runs

Sack the board

The Blues squad are on a scheduled day off on Monday but are due to return to Finch Farm on Tuesday to begin preparations for the clash with Leicester at the King Power Stadium.

After Saturday's turgid performance, they should be doing a double training session let alone having a day off.

 

[Dwight K Schrute]

If he does make it to Leicester, we lose and he goes after that - Will it be the 1st time that a new manager has made their debut in a derby?

Baptism by fire.

Joe Royle. We won.

Marco Silva is expected to remain in charge of Everton on Monday as pressure mounts on his position as manager following the defeat to Norwich City.

The Blues' hierarchy have remained tight-lipped today as speculation over Silva's future continues to intensify but it is understood he will carry on planning for next weekend's game with Leicester City as normal.

Majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri held talks with chairman Bill Kenwright and the remaining members of the board of directors at Goodison on Saturday evening after the 2-0 loss in front of an angry home support.

Sections of Everton fans joined in with the chants of "You're getting sacked in the morning" that had been started by Norwich supporters after they had scored a second goal in time added on.

Silva is understood to have held talks with Moshiri and Marcel Brands after the game and is believed to have been told he retains support from the top of the club despite the alarming nature of the defeat and the side's lowly league position.


But Everton's power-brokers have remained on lockdown today with no clear message on Silva's future coming out of Goodison and those high-level discussions are likely to continue into the new week.

The Blues squad are on a scheduled day off on Monday but are due to return to Finch Farm on Tuesday to begin preparations for the clash with Leicester at the King Power Stadium.

From Mr Kirkbride himself the club mouthpiece.

Also states club are off tomorrow and players not in until Tuesday so wont be any news tomorrow.

The players being off on Monday after that humiliation just shows you what a loser Silva is.

At least yesterday if Baningme and Iwobi started instead of Sigurdsson and Schneiderlin the fans would have been completely supportive of the team, but including both and even making Sigurdsson captain just cannot logically be explained away when you consider his performances week after week.
Playing Scheiderlin just annoys fans even before the game starts.
But, I think these established players are banging on the managers door every week demanding to play and he isn't strong enough to put them in their place.

Making Sigurdsson captain is the most nonsensical decision I have seen in some time.

This.

Siggy always had the reputation of disappearing in games but still managed to score and make the odd excellent pass. This season he's not doing that.

Schdeiderlin offers nothing going forward and isn't even a good defender. Seems like he gets booked every game, but not for an aggressive challenge or a sound tactical foul - it's just petulant, like he's pouty that he's been beaten by his man.

Tosun is slow. He looked like he was carrying a piano on his back yesterday.

None of these guys have their best days ahead of them. They're in their decline. Siggy has fallen off a cliff. Schneiderlin doesn't look fit for the PL at all, let alone at a club with aspirations. Tosun has had his moments but isn't going to get any better. Coleman is another one whose best days are behind him. Have to add Walcott too.

Play the kids. Holgate was poor, yesterday, but DCL and especially Iwobi looked better than anyone else on the pitch when they came on. Holgate, Mina, Davies, Iwobi, Kean, Calvert-Lewin, Kenny if/when we get him back, Gordon, Baningime - all of these guys want to establish themselves and make themselves stars. Davies and Iwobi have holes in their games but FFS they both fight to get forward. Arsene Wenger once said (I think it was him) that points in the table are the price you pay for bedding in young players, since they're going to make mistakes. But I feel very strongly that I'd much rather watch players with growth potential and young legs fight like hell and maybe lose or draw on youthful errors, than watch a side of expensive players looking over their shoulder at their best days play fearfully.

I've been a Silva defender and holding out hope for improvement but not anymore. Starting Siggy over Iwobi, when Iwobi at the 10 gave us our best showing of the season against West Ham, in a must-win game against the dead-last side in the league, with a brutal run of fixtures coming up, and his job on the line - failing to give Kean a start against a bad team that doesn't even have its best XI available - giving those spots to Siggy and Tosun -

AND THEN complaining about the lack of pace and mobility?

That's actively inviting failure. That's managing out of fear.

I can't see how he stays. Canning him will be hugely disruptive. I don't see a choice after that atrocity.

[Jim Hopper]

Disgraceful if true.

 

[PhilEFC]

So all those lads mates who text them were telling lies?

I feel betrayed.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Players get a day off after that garbage. They should be ran into the ground

 

[Azza]

Just read this part ...

So yeah, Phil K doesn't actually have a clue. lol

 

[Kenshin]

Ha!

So if the latest rumours are to be believed, the board think Silva can turn this around still.

When we drop into the bottom three I won't be arsed tbh , we deserve it.

 

[Deleted member 38674]

Joe Royle. We won.

Just had a look, 1994, a smidge before my time, never knew that.

Might be worth giving it another go, in that case.

After Saturday they should be in at 5am tomorrow - footballing snowflakes.
