Next Everton Manager

[Berenger]

Sounds more like Silva will need to resign, which I can’t see him doing.

Watford have been decent today, but West Ham have been poor. Watford don’t look rock solid in defence either. But they make excellent use of a midfield that is lower quality than ours: Hughes Cleverley and Doucouré. If he comes in that’s hopefully the first thing he’ll sort out.

Got Watford playing very good football it has to be said.

Would be risky move to leave them now id say.

 

[Toffeeslam]

Watford playing good footy. Doubt Silva will ditch them now.

I said that too before I started to warm for him. "Flavour of the month" but Id take him anyways now. Looks like talented feller.

We had that a few seasons back, the manager was hounded out.

And rightly so Dave, two bottom half finishes on the bounce will never be good enough at this club.

Everton target Marco Silva commits only to 'tomorrow' after West Ham victory

Marco Silva is only interested in tomorrow


Marco Silva has once again refused to talk about his future.


The Watford manager is in demand, with Everton desperate to make him their new manager following the sacking of Ronald Koeman.

But the Hornets have so far stood firm, rebuffing at least two approaches and suggesting they are not prepared to listen to any offer at any price for their popular manager.

Watford comfortably beat West Ham 2-0 at Vicarage Road today, and the questions after the match centred on whether Silva will remain in the hotseat.

Silva previously could not commit himself to the Watford fans when asked about his future during his pre-match press conference, and there was no difference after the game, with the Portuguese saying that the future was "tomorrow."

He said: "My future is tomorrow, to start to prepare for the next game, we've already planned the next session.

"Some things we can't control. In football what can happen can happen. I know what's in my hands, and it's in my hands to plan the session tomorrow."

If its between Silva and Dyche then it has to be Silva and I'd be happy to wait till the end of the season with Unsworth if the alternative is Dyche.

I wouldn't be happy to wait, Unsworth as a u23 manager is one thing but he is well out of his depth at Premier league level. His teams ship goals for fun and he only ever reacts when we're 1 or 2 down, our luck in recent games won't last forever and we will quickly be in the bottom 3 if things don't change.

Is an opinion I tend to agree with. We're leaking too many goals and the defence looks ropier than ever, the midfield isn't competing.
But for the energy and never-say-die attitude of Niasse, we'd be in the bottom three.

My lads a really good footballer (he doesn't get that from me) but he's definitely in his team because he will not stop and chases every lost cause, doesn't back out of a challenge and doesn't mind getting hurt, for him it's all about the team winning. Not sure you can teach people that.

Unlike some of our first team who are so slow to get to a tackle, we end up committing 26 fouls against a garbage Crystal Palace.

We're either so slow, de-motivated or don't want to win the ball cos the options in possession are currently so poor ?

I'd say it's all of these. Confidence has a lot to do with it aswell, take Hazard a few seasons ago, zero confidence and looked a shell of the player he was, last season and this he's been brilliant. A good manager can get this team winning most games.

By whom? he caused all the problems with his boring tikka takka and having no defensive nous whatsoever...but phenomenal eh...up there with Walter and Walker ....good job you never had to sit there and watch that crap.

Yeah, we tumbled all the way to erm...midtable. What a catastrophe.

Now you know what a real one looks like...and from the hands of the manager you thought was better.

Lol.
