Next Everton Manager

[Simon baker]

Anyone who plays 1 defensive mid will do for me

Yes please end the reign of the backpass brothers

You do know who he is don't you? Not sure if serious....

Of course. I just like making Mikey furious.

Unsworth would probably boost the team as an interim manager for a few games but as a long term option doesn't have the experience. Shouldn't get the job even with an exceptional run of results as caretaker, Leicester made this mistake with Shakespeare and have ended up in the same place they were before they sacked his predecessor.

Ancelotti would be the best option for me but we just need to try anyone but Koeman. Apart from the likes of Dyche or Allardyce.

 

[Borussin]

WHO?

he actually correctly spelled his name No umlaut means you add the letter 'e'.
Sorry, pedantic I know!

Mate, don't make me cut the stuffing out of your pillows

Not convinced by the Dyche shouts, nothing personal against him. Although I’d have him before Allardyce.

We can do better than that though.

Given we only had Giroud on the striker list I imagine Dyche is the only name on the manager list.

Dyche's missus doesn't want him to move north, so we've dodged a bullet there....

Can someone explain the deal with Tuchel? What system does he play? Formation?

Can someone explain the deal with Koeman? What system does he play? Formation?

The problem is how attractive are we currently to managers right now? And how much backing financially could a new manager expect and how much would they want? We don't exactly have any saleable assets anymore to generate funds. Dyche would come to us next week. I'm not sure managers of the standard we want would.

At least have a word with Ancelloti. No harm

I’d give Unsworth the gig before Dyche if they were the only two choices.

These Unsworth to the end of the season shouts are shocking. What do the people who want him in know of his tactical approach? Yes I
he is a blue, yes he is a nice feller, but what pedigree does he have?

If we are not careful, we will be in a relegation battle, so if Koeman goes, we need to get a manager with experience in, not a Brian Kidd, a la Blackburn.

...I have always been of a similar view regarding the promotion of a reserve team manager. Generally it doesn’t work and I have been against the Unsworth shouts but there is increasing reasons to consider them:

- the appointment of a DoF means experience and a good track record in the transfer market is not the key competency it once was. Saying that, we know for certain it was Unsworth who recommended DCL to Walsh and convinced the Board to splash £1m on the unknown youngster.

- the U23s are PL2 Champions. Teams like Man City and Chelsea have global stars but Unsworth sets his side out as hard to beat in the last third and creative in the top third. He’s lost his best players from last season and is more than competitive despite upheaval. You can’t achieve that without tactical nouse.

- more than that he has engineered a remarkable team spirit. That is something that cannot be overstated. U23s are a group of young men in competition for limited contracts yet they play in a joined up, integrated way. Watch this weeks win over Man City. It really is some achievement.

The selection of any manager carries risk. We have gone down the experienced route with Koeman. We have gone down the experienced route with Martinez. We can go down the experienced route again and it might be third time lucky but it’s no guarantee.

I was against Unsworth but I really think he’s worth considering as next cab on the rank.

Guardiola is the coach he aspires too. He is a micro-manager, everything to the last detail, which can be as infuriating as it can be a good thing. He played a lot with a diamond at Mainz, at Dortmund he played quite a bit 4-1-4-1 with auba up top, and Weigl holding, and two men out wide. First season it went well mostly for the first 2/3 of the season so it was a very stable foramtion. And it wasnt till late in the season when things didn't go so well that he started changing it up.

2nd season he would change formations a lot as the season went on, he tinkered incessantly - often multiple changes during games, going 3 at the back quite a lot and Reus often playing off Aubameyang, then other times 4-3-3. It was kinda hard to keep up last season with what he was doing as it was never settled.
