I wanted him before Ronk.

You're such a trendsetter Nymz

Being Conte’s assistant for all those years was enough for me. Love an Italian.

True, and apologies, no offence intended. I should have been considerate with my words.

Well done.

 

[nsno-chris]

Well done.

Cheers Dave

Still don't know who.

Really want Fonseca now. Seen some of Shakhtar's game and they played some brilliant stuff - and with width and pace.

I'm very much a gambling man and I was looking today at some of the bookies' favourites to be the next Everton manager.

Unsurprisingly, Unsworth is the frontrunner with every one of the major bookmakers, but also in the running is Garry Monk, Tony Pulis, Neil Warnock, Chris Hughton, Alan Stubbs, Sean Dyche, Harry Redknapp and David Moyes. Oh, and Chris Wilder... ....whoever that is.

Out of that lot, the only one I'd consider would be Sean Dyche.

Big Sam to steady us for a few years. Won't be pretty but neither is our current league position.

You are joking right?lol

Yes thats fair. There is pre Liverpool Benitez and post Liverpool Benitez.

He got very lucky to win the CL with Liverpool but probably quite unlucky not to win the league. That being said, towards the end he started spending huge sums of money on ordinary players, and picked a fight with the owners to distort the narratives which the KKKult took hook line and sinker.

After that, all I have seen is a manager who has gone to European Champions Inter and left them mid table. Went to European Champions Madrid and left them getting annihilated by Barca. Went to Chelsea and became the first manager post Roman to finish outside the top 4. Went to Newcastle and took them from being out of the relegation zone to being relegated. It's pretty ordinary.

Most Kopites go on about him as if he's in the same league as Mourinho, Guardiola et al. He's not for me. He's a similar level to Koeman, Pochetino, Emery etc, guys a level below the elite managers.

That being said he is very strong tactically and get win set piece games very well. I think he'd be completely the wrong choice for where we look to be going re Walsh, Moshiri and youth investment. If a certain Russian came on board and started lashing money about though I could see him being a potential Mancinish type of fit and work quite well for us. The ex Liverpool thing really doesn't bother me, in fact it's a major attraction. If he won a trophy with us before Klopp won anything with Liverpool it would lead to massive splits in the reds which would be absolute hilarity.

Haha, if proof were needed.

7 managers in 5 years sacked after playing West Brom. Boxing day it is then.

Bonus Christmas present.

I have a bit of a problem with people watching someone manage another team and then thinking they’d be good here. That’s a completely different set of players what’s to say we’d play good football with who we have?

He'd be a better bet than Warnock. Or Koeman, for that matter.
