What do we reckon, real or photoshopped? lol

Photoshop, it’s apparently one of the academy coaches

1/2 is not too dissimilar to what he was when he was initially having talks and it went a bit quiet. It's a big shift. It's like going from 95% chance to 65% chance.

Yep. 1/20 sounds like a done deal. If it is a done deal put your house on 1/2 but would not recommend as there must be serious doubts over his position now. Just cant see it myself given the change in odds

"Alluded"..."insinuated"

"You made me explain to you".

"I dont believe ive insulted you"

"Perhaps ive touched on the truth"


Youre the master of having no knowledge on a subject matter and then blaming and insulting someone for asking you to explain your thought process.

When youre unable to, you then claim you did in fact make it clear previously and blame and insult the person again.

Theres a word for that.

My word is "goodbye" lol

You lasted longer with him than i did mate so be proud of yourself for your patience and perseverance. lol I was called an imbecile and something to do with my knickers after just 1 post and well i only lasted about 1 more reply after that and my silence was my response. Pointless trying to converse with someone who just resorts to insults when they have nothing of any value to add to a discussion. Can't be bothered with oneupmanship. Best to just disengage.

Cloud cuckoo land.

(not saying you think it'll happen - but anyone who thinks it's a possibility is living there)

Yes probably, but you get the wider point re Conte.

I think we find ourselves with a similar dilemma to Ancelotti, but it probably ends less harmoniously.

 

[Dixieslaces]

No, as a manager at the peak of his reputation (as opposed to on the downslope), who could walk into almost any top job in the world when they become available, he'll likely be significantly MORE disinterested.

Its a valid point but apart Spurs which other clubs are looking at the moment, genuine question?

It would be interesting with Sweaty in charge, we'd be able to boo them on to the pitch as well as off.

For me, his appointment would be as unacceptable as Allardyce's was.

Exactly. Next summer (or christ, possibly even before) one of the giants will sack their manager and come knocking, and there'd be a Conte-shaped hole in the Finch Farm wall.

It’d be miles, miles worse.

Is there a shelf life for football managers ?

Football is constantly evolving and changing and what was successful a decade ago may be completely out of date now.

That is the challenge facing slightly older managers like Pellegrini, Benitez , Carlo and others.
There is no denying how successful those managers were at their peak, but could they replicate that now or have things changed too much.

It can be the problem with looking at the trophy haul of a manager in his career in that it reflects the game and the manager at a different time rather than the current day.

The problem for club owners now is that the amounts of money involved are so huge you simply cannot take the risk on a young manager like Clough, Kendall or maybe Potter, unless that is where survival in the league is success in itself.

Can we have a praying emoji please

Not many at the moment. That's the only reason we'd have any shot at getting him through the door. The problem is (as I said above) that in 6, 12 or 18 months max, one of those huge sides will bin their manager and he'll be off.

Going around and around in circles this thread….Conte-Ferguson- Rafael-Nuno-Rafael-Ferguson up next then Conte

 

[Terrarian]

No one seems to be grasping what’s going on .We are going through an interview process like any job the candidates are interviewed & the one who ticks all the right boxes gets the job & if all the applicants are not available ie the euros are taking place we may wait to speak to them .

like any one who carry’s out interviews knows your opinion of who is most suitable can change dramatically during this process so be patient & the right manager will be appointed

Thanks for explaining this mate, none of knew

Rafael being only 3/1 is scary.

I’d be devastated if we got him.

Yes. It's hard to calculate the exact length, but it's generally accepted to be the length of their career prior to taking the Everton job
