All of the above have been and gone during my time watching Everton.
A few tasted some success, the majority didn't but they are ALL in the past now.
Benitez is just another name to add to that long list. The chances are that he won't be here for long. (this is not a criticism of him, it's just a realistic assessment based on the average time span of a football managers job)
As with all Everton managerial appointments, If he does well I'll be overjoyed, if he doesn't I'll be critical.
Why people feel the need to 'pick a side' and be either 'pro' or 'anti' Benitez before he's even managed one competitive game just completely baffles me. :confused:
For me Harry Catterick was boss but he did have plenty of money. Built 2 great championship winning teams with the money he had.
Billy Bingham even though he should have won the league for us was in a similar mould to Allardyce zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Gordon Lee had a good spell with exciting football then similar to now had the plug pulled on spending and went down hill but I liked him.
Kendall had a slow start then the rest is history............best manager we ever had.
Colin Harvey did a decent job by todays standards but was on a loser after Kendall.
Howard mk II had the battle he lost with the board over signings so quit.
Mike Walker was a total distaster.
Joe Royle was very good but the board once again could not back him so he quit.
Howard MK III not a chance in hell with what he had to spend....board let him down
Walter Smith bought in some good players that the board couldn't afford so having to resell them and be on a nothing budget didn't help him regardless of him being a dour manager.
Moyes stabilised the club but patted himself on the back and claimed success. Not willing to push on and quite happy with his 'success' not realising he belittled the club with knife to gunfight type of comments.
Martinez great 1st season but too stubborn in his methods when it was obvious to all but himself that the style/defence became inaffective but unwilling to do anything about it.
Koeman decent 1st season but once he had a bit of money he didn't know how to use it...........set the club back.
Allardyce zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz anti Football
Silva was a job too big for him.
Ancelloti gave us hope but think he is only suitable after all his years to take on teams that have quality already and just tweak slightly. Wasn't up for a build
Benitez .......wait and see
