I wouldn't have wanted Pellegrini either tbh. Too old and too expensive. Nobody could deny his vast experience but his motivation and ambition now at his age will be no where near what it once was. Out of Arteta, Pellegrini and Silva, i would choose Silva because he is young, ambitious, has won things and has been Everton's number 1 target and wanted to join Everton since at least last November and basically waited for us till this summer. Having someone like that who also really wants to be here that much is a great starting platform to build from.
