New Everton Manager

[Terrarian]

I just don't see the point in having a DoF if you are constantly over riding him.

Starting to look like Moshiri/Usmanov are pushing this through just to make a point that this is their club now. Bastards

I get the feeling it's just usmanov after talking to his mate abramovich

Wouldn’t surprise me tbh

Talk of division in the board is overstated. We don't have a board worthy of the name. Kenwright is being shoved aside, Brands is irrelevant, so our only "board" is in the form of Ryazantsev, the single Moshiri appointee.

Kenwright and Brands can sulk in private as they wish. For sure, Benitez will have no involvement with them on any strategic matter.

Probably come out the tunnel v southampton wearing a suit with a red tie.

Well if he doesn't wear a red tie on away days then he is just downright being unfashionable.

They wear gearing us up for this a while now.

Yeah, put Bill back in charge and bring back the successful years !

Is it nearly time to rub mustard into our eyes or might this all just collapse.

A few hours later, he got hungry and ate them.

If Benitez does sign, every transfer, every team selection, every substitution and every word - will just grind the fanbase down over time.

It's such a devsive choice of a manager that regrettably no matter how much progress is made will be washed out in the final outcome.

An ugly couple of years ahead.

I think most would accept that.

Fair enough. I don't see us getting either under Benitez unfortunately.

 

[catcherintherye]

It's you trying to get someone to put a number on something that has many variables so you can judge them with no evidence that they are right or wrong. And then, if at the end of the season, if the points are fewer and the position is higher, or vice versa, you are never wrong.

I wouldn't put a number on points with any manager taking over this team. We could appoint Guardiola and I wouldn't immediately expect 70+ points.
It's just a really pointless point to try and make putting someone on the spot.

But surely there are more variables on leagues position, which has a load of things out of your control, or cup success which has even more things out of your control. So you either don't set a target, or you set one that is probably the fairest way of doing it. I want us to win more games of football.

….I doubt that happens as far as players are concerned.

 

[catcherintherye]

Again I don’t think any ones can hazard a guess how many points we want we would all take an increase on the 59 points but if it’s again an odd season and we somehow get say 60 points and finish 13th how do you read that?.
Are we looking at an improved league position with less points as a success with may be more draws than defeats ?

If we got 60 points I think Benitez will have done well, and would probably defend him against criticism of coming 13th (that would likely come).

The "real" board is Sasha, reporting into Moshiri who consults Usmanov. The rest of it just theatre.
