Next Everton Manager

[deipnosophist]

Im pretty sure you'd never actually bet for or against anything, based on your track record you'd be permanently broke.

There's a fella, Denis Gartman, who appears often in US financial media talking about what he likes in the market, and what positions his hedge fund is opening. He is the ultimate contrarian indicator; whatever positions he adopts, I do the opposite...it's been a spectacularly successful strategy.
On matters pertaining to football games and their likely outcomes, @davek reminds me of Denis.

Nagelsmann(sp), Hasenhuttl, Jardim, Biesla(Lord that would be fun for a season), Blanc?

For the record I absolutely do NOT want AVB

At least your brave enough to come up with some alternatives......

Interesting though that none of them have worked in the Premiership. Not a deal breaker, but it has destroyed many managers from abroad.
So, let's look at the runners and riders.....

Nagelsmann. Apart from stating that he will be at his club 100% next season this kid has only been managing for 15 months and hasn't actually won anything.
Hasenhuttl Again, hasn't won anything and has just ended his 3 year contract at Leipzig after 2 years because the club were not prepared to extend it for a longer term. Not exactly a ringing endorsement.
Jardim Has been managing since 2003 and has only one league title with Monaco in that time. Besides he made a statement today that he is staying at Monaco for the future.
Bielsa A Lunatic, The club would never employ him.
Blanc A good record with strong clubs, but he would not come here. I did say credible.

I do agree with you about AVB though.

I think Blanc might be obtainable should the pitch be enticing enough. Jardim would be a long shot as well.

I DID say Biesla would be a huge amount of fun for that year tho

I stand corrected on that one.

One other thing about Blanc that bothers me is that I don't think he has worked since he left PSG in the middle of 2016. That's over 2 years out of football.
To then go to another country and another league after being away for so long is a big ask.

 

[davek]

dave, he's the owner. He does what he wants and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it. Face it, he's outbrained you here, big time.

The day that oaf out-brains me will never arrive.

 

[davek]

Apparently he has a year break clause in his contract that comes into effect on 27th. Early next week I’d say.

I hope so. Let's get this done and dusted and confirmed. If it isn't then we really are a shambles and have no idea why we sack managers when there's no good-to-go plan.

Think it’s all a bit of a pony show to be honest, the narrative that Brands is sifting through potential candidates is funny, especially as he was sitting in his PSV office today. lol It’s been a done deal since Dec.

Winners here is Allardyce who got 6mill for six months work, Everton got their man for 6mill with a six month wait, Watford loose 12 mill we were prepared to pay.

I think this has been the most boring managerial search in recent seasons tbh.

With Martinez it was genuine excitement of who was following the decade or so reign of Moyes

With Koeman you had the genuine feeling Moshiri was after a big statement of intent appointment

With Alladyce it was a gutting and shock appointment as talk of Silva/Tuchel/Fonesca were around.

You just know in this instance Silva is all but down and has been since last November.

True that, its dull as no matter how much most of us dont want SIlva deep down we all know it will be him regardless, his press conferance is going to be dull and get zilch media attention, like a tumbleweed on an empty road to nowhere

That really doesn't matter though. At all.

In this case I’ll make an exception.

Beter we are sat here tonight with no “good to go plan” than Allardyce still being in charge

Hear hear! I’ll even overlook the spelling of Beter.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Imagine we get that Carvalho fella who has just left Swansea.

 

[samsonthedog1]

AVB if you looked at prem experience and winning stuff would actually be better than Silva. Might be a outside chance for him.

 

[overkill]

If it's just down to compo with Watford you would have thought the media would be running with it,surly we would be going to the sports arbitration to get it sorted by now

So maybe it's not Silva ? ?
