2019/20 Marco Silva

Silva is the manager - it's his job to coach and set the team up with the tactics he implements,from the players he wanted to buy in his discussions with his DOF.

This looking for another scapegoat is embarrassing to say the very least fellas.

Proper lol at @davek thinking that brands has any say in the style of football or tactics, absolutely clueless.
 
Noticeably uses the word "we" a lot there doesn't he? :coffee:
It's the royal 'We' ; here's just two examples


 
Apparently Silva in his chat has labelled the next game as a must win, hell there have been past games that were also a must win and look were we are now.
 

Personally Dave I don’t see it being a big of an issue as you do. For me if anything the DOF is there to make it smooth runnings for the manager, so he can focus on managing his team and ensuring the day to day training and coaching and general on the pitch routines are being maintained.

Again I do think Brands left us a bit short in terms of transfers this summer and for that I will say he let us down. On the whole I think he’s done a very good job in terms of getting rid of the deadwood left behind by Koeman and Wash and doing a very good job in bringing in the players Silva has requested.

I just think people are looking for scapegoats rather than the bigger issue which is the man who sets his team up in training on an almost daily basis and instructs them on what to do on the pitch. Marco Silva.

That is correct the selection, tactics, and subbing are down to him. Looking back at the games his excuses are largely the same for each game never does he hold his hand for getting anything wrong.

Is he looking to be sacked, get millions in a payoff to build up his retirement fund?
 
It;s a mess though isn't it?

I mean, this is the first time really we're into the DoF system as Walsh was continually overridden by Koemageddon.

What a ridiculous way to run this club. We need a manager making all the decisions. No other Everton manager would have stood for it.

It is a mess Dave but the team selection, tactics and subbing through the game are 100% down to Silva.
 
Our board are not smart enough to get a replacement lined up first mate - im 90% confident that he'll be here for the WHU game.

Moshiri certainly isn’t but it won’t be him doing the searching, if it means the international break is used to search for the right candidate then so be it, I just don’t want it ending up with Unsy in charge for six games and ending up with Pulis :(
 

Posted by me. It really does boil down to Sigurdsson though. If you watch ANY other player in that role, they don't do what he does in that scenario. He comes towards the ball, or at the very least he makes a run to get into space to possibly receive a pass.

Sigurdsson does neither, over and over again, every game. So an entire route of attack - up the centre, dragging players out of position, making space to get in behind or cause defensive errors - is completely gone.

It all stems from him. It's why we're toothless.

That said, it's all down to Silva why he continues to play. He's so bad he shouldn't even be on the bench at this point, but not only has he not been dropped; he's basically on 90 minutes of every game, when this season particularly he is, on form, hands down the single worst player I've seen as an Evertonian. No exaggeration, he's been that bad.
It's not just Gilfi who is badly positioned there is not 1 player in blue in a good position to receive a pass, the best is Digne who'll have that defender on him instantly. DCL walking forward with his back to play, Schneiderlin and Coleman having a chat. Lazy players displaying no intensity.
