Thoughts on Galtier?

54 and only managed two clubs, Saint Etienne and Lille.

Had success at both and both clubs liked him. Built teams...played young players...

Seems like a potentially strong candidate who makes more sense if Brands is planning to focus on bringing in French players (which i strongly think he should).

Having said all that, id be happier with Gallardo or Amorim.
 
Only amongst the irrational, of which our fan base has many, I’d grant you.

You can fluke a cup win, you can’t fluke a league win.

Would you have hired Ranieri after Leicester won the league? Even they sacked him soon after.
 

Not sure, I don't know enough about him. Will fans relate to him? Talking most fans here, not the Vítor Pereira hipsters on social media.

And I said titles.

When the going gets tough, winning one Ligue 1 will hold as much as Martinez winning an FA Cup.

If Marco Silva delivered what Ancelotti did, I want him sacked. A manager with credentials in the game pipes the likes of me down.
His achievements at Lille in the last 3 seasons are nothing short of remarkable and easily outweigh an FA Cup and relegation by Bobby Brown shoes.

Everton fans would enjoy his brand of football.

If you are holding out for a multiple title winning manager , gagging to come here and that the fans can relate to I fear you will have a long wait amigo.
 
It would just prove to me the people in charge at everton don't have a clue wtf their doing and Marcel brands might as well not be in the job because hes either incompetent or unable to do his job, whichever way it is if I was him id walk if they appoint Rafael while he still has some credibility left.

Brands should decide our style of play and formation bring in players to play it and a manager who can manage it. That way when the next manager goes hes easily replaced and will have players who suit his system because he'd suit our system and we'd have a team of player who suit that system.

As opposed to now where every manager we bring in plays completely differently and needs a completely new starting 11 each time.

Moshiri needs to leave his checkbook in brands office then koff away from the football decision side of things because its starting to feel like we're nothing but a play thing atm

Brands isn't a coach, and I don't think you get many DoFs being that hands on. His role, as far as I understand the general remit, should be to oversee recruitment of both players and coaching staff, and ensure the manager/head coach is the right individual for the job. There might be a sense of style that informs the recruitment, but formations etc. are down to managers.

There also seems to be some assumptions as to what Brands might/mightn't want as a manager that I'm not entirely convinced by. Ancelotti was, of course, not his call, and yes, he wanted to give Silva more time, but at AZ he hired the high profile van Gaal after he'd flopped at Barca and had a brief and toxic time as technical director at Ajax. He also had a role in appointing Dick Advocaat at PSV, who left for the Russian job before Cocu came in - and Cocu, who was excellent at PSV, has since had catastrophic stints at Fenerbahce and Derby. It's hard to know what Brands might see as a good appointment - we can only say that he's had a couple of historic successes that are quite different in context. It seems more clear that Moshiri is employing a DoF without adhering to a DoF model.

Otherwise, I agree: for all this talk of 'six managers since Moshiri', the reality is that Unsworth, Ferguson and, essentially, Allardyce were all caretakers. Koeman, Silva and Ancelotti have been his appointments. The first of those was a mistake we're still paying for, the second - a reaction to the first - was also a mistake, while the third was an opportunistic move that has ultimately fallen apart through little fault of our own (although I personally didn't see anything in 18 months to suggest Ancelotti was much of an improvement on what had come before). Brands should be trusted to make the call this time.
 
Good interview with Roberto in the Athletic today where he touches on his time at Everton as well as his coaching.
 

I'm talking about us as fans. If you love your club you'll always love it and never give up on it. I'm not talking about players or managers who move on our of greed or ambition or both. But us the die hards who watch and support week in week out and who have done since the day we decided we were chosen.
 

God bless you

Acceptable ? The boys were running themselves into the ground because of Dunc and Kean wasn't doing as he was told and that's why he get hooked off .
Don't get me wrong , I hope we aim higher but I wouldn't be inconsolable if he is given the chair .
He's worked closely with Carlo for about 18 months . He had to learn something . Different cone set ups for example . If it came down to Nuno , Benitez or Dunc , I know who I would prefer shouting orders .
Question to you both and anyone else backing Ferguson - why isn't he a manager...why hasn't he made himself a manager elsewhere, and why has there been no stampede to use him as a manager by other clubs?

Galtier does seem to be emerging as the candidate that most people could support, which seems an achievement in itself.

I'm perfectly ok if he got it, he has a steady track record. I'd infinitely prefer him over Fonseca for example.

It would not be an appointment that would make me think "Ok, we've finally cracked this" but we can't really say that about anyone.
