New Everton Manager

[Thetigerblue]

Every manager has close ties to football agents haha. And if they didn't I'd be worried that they're not very good at their job.

I guess you’d think this is perfectly normal.

Imagine if we had a manager who absolutely loved our club. Maybe he even has an Everton tattoo? One who would show passion and be hurt when we lose, but celebrate insanely when we will.

If only there was such a man .. hmmmn

My dad then?

I just hope Mosh is winding the FSW up, pretending he has a chance then pulling out last minute…

My Nan as well

problem is sentiment does not translate to good management this particular person needs experience.

I love the club dear but no one in their right mind should hire me as Everton manager

Does he have a sing-able name?

How many of the "It's not about who he managed, its because he hasn't done anything in 5 years" gang would take Alex Ferguson or Arsene Wenger if they expressed an interest?

In an ideal scenario, we wouldnt be looking at Benitez, we would still have Ancelotti. But it's not an ideal scenario, and every name we've been linked with carries risk. Benitez is a risk, but a different type of risk. He's not a flash in a pan, he has experience both in the Premier league and in Europe, he has a strong CV that includes managing a mix of top tier teams and also a few non top tier, something that was used as a criticism of Ancelotti. He has a history of winning trophies, notably cups.

How many other managers have we been linked with who tick all those boxes? Conte? Not gonna happen. If we could appoint Conte, Benitez would not be in the equation.

Our fans are so paranoid about everything, and worried about what others, especially them, will say.... And I include myself in that... that there appears to be no room for cold, logical decision making.

We need to be a bit more thick skinned and think about what is best moving forward. Benitez probably isn't going to win us the European trophies he has won at several other clubs he's been at. But compared to the other candidates, he is more of the known quantity and all but guarantees a certain level of stability that none but the most hopeful of us could see with all of the other choices.

Take emotion out of the decision, and for me, it's the most logical choice.

Dunno, can't remember it.

Everton dad's collective. Good idea.

They get it and are born (not manufactured).

Fickle.

When the known facts change, I change my opinion. What do you do, Sir?

This looks unstoppable atm.

The concern is that after interviewing 3 times Benitez sounds 100% up for this and wouldn't have opened himself up to rejection in such a public manner.

If he wasn't who he was and he hadn't said what he'd said - purely on a football competency level - I could accept this appointment.

Stop making logical sense. I want to sing about fat Spanish waiters.

The facts didn't change though. Nuno's capabilities are what they were a week ago.

I am wondering to myself how he is going to backtrack on that statement.
