I didn't think Farke getting slaughtered in the PL last time reflected on him particularly well so at this point I wouldn't.
Bielsa isn't for me. I just think there is a ceiling on the way he plays and although that might be a bit of a step up for now it would leave us at square one whenever it is he goes because the style just isn't sustainable forever.
Moyes sure, we'd know what we're getting and all that, but also has a ceiling and he's probably set at West Ham for the time being.
Poch is great and would be great so we can always make a run at it but I doubt it comes off.
I'm not going to get too worked up about style so long as whatever we are doing is sustainable football. If we're defensive but actually good at it whatever, we just need to actually play decent stuff. That wasn't what happened this year for me.
You could be right on Farke, I always have a bit of time for a manager who has a philosphey and has the courage to stick with it, we need that. I also like how he coaches and improve players, but maybe he is a bit naieve. Next year could tell a lot. I just want this next appointment to have a philosphey and stick, so we can build. I’m tired with reboots, it’s stifles any progress.
For me, I think style is the roof in the house. The problem we have is the foundations, attitude and values. We have a bottling culture, since money came to the club.
I want a manager the players will play for, a manager who can cultivate, but also put down boundaries in terms of baseline attitude and effort.
Bielsa I rate really highly, I agree there is a limit on his philosphey but also value, a lot of what he sells we need. My manager of the year this year. Agree he won’t leave Leeds.
I rate Davey highly, more then most Evertonians, maybe I’m biased as i lived through so many relegation fights before he came and got us close to achieving. He has skills in terms of attitude, recruitment, on and off the pitch all of which we need. He could be tempted, maybe, I think his family live in the North East still.
Poch would be the dream. He will have way better options though.
Someone else I thought might have game on occasion was Hasenhuttl, but don’t think we’ve one player to implement his philosphey and it can be boom and bust.
