It;s monotonous and cretinous: hire manager ----> wait for short term downturn ----> sack him with compo ----> hire new manager - rinse/repeat
As the boss says , we aren't hiring winners , we are hiring managers who have relegation or nothing at all on their resumes.

Two of our last 3 full contract managers had relegated a club in this league. One short term manager is famous for simply keeping clubs up before being sacked.

Liverpool replaced an under performing manager with a bundesliga winning manager. Look what difference that had on their fortunes. Chelsea hire title winning managers when they sack their last ones and it brings them more trophies.

You can't wonder why we underperform and have such a negative attitude at the club when we keep hiring sacked / relegation form managers over and over again. Especially when we are signing players who have won things that matter , and played in teams that matter. Much like Moyes telling the reigning champions to defend a 1-0 lead. We are asking managers whos best experience is going down to motivate a team to be competing with title winning managers at the top.

And it's not about the money anymore , we have damn well made sure our spending has matched them
 
There is nothing a manager can do to change our fortunes as our budget isn't big enough. You may get the odd season, as we did with Martinez, where the ball runs for you more than it should, but the vast majority of the time, you end up where money suggests you should end up. That's not going to change with a new manager, no matter how much we think it will.
So compare Mourinho to Solskjaer and cut off this nonsense.

Spurs bucked that trend with the right manager.

We went for a gamble on a mini Poch and he's nothing like that.

The same when we gambled on Koeman being a mini Jose (stern, dictator).

Why don't we actually bring some calibre in for a change rather than gambling?

What are we comparing exactly?

Spurs do generally punch above their weight, but I suspect much of that is down to Harry Kane coming through their youth system. If we had a goal a game academy graduate then I'm sure it would help us too.
 
As I said above - the history of the Premier League says teams finish where their wage bill says they finish. For us, that's about 7th. No manager is going to change that. Soz like. Welcome to the Premier League.

Yes. OK you like stats. But football is not won on balance sheets. You are being way too rigid on this. Leicester won the league when according to your analysis they should have gone down.

We're 18th not 7th too. That's a pretty important detail....

Not really, it might be a week away which is fine with the international break. Moshiri has to have someone lined up this time, which may take a bit of time. I won’t worry if nothing happens in the next few days.

True however thats typically not how Everton role - if we aint sacking him for me he has another game to save his job - I doubt we are speaking to top calibre managers behind his back just not Everton.

We are by nature a reactionary club - it'll be done tomorrow or after the WHU game.

That's a very simplistic way of looking at it. Nothing down to how his team press, fitness, players he's brought in, formation, tactics?

The same can be said of Simeone at Atletico.
