Deary me.

You prefer watching teams Emery puts out?

I' m fed up with this now. Let's give Unsworth the job, with Big Joe as his mentor. Maybe try and bring an experienced assistant like Brian Kidd in too. (He did play for us in the early 80's). I know everyone wants the big name but we have good coaches who love the club. We could lose that if the wrong man comes in. This way we could build a force from the bottom up that would last for years.

I'll probably get slated for this, but imagine how much we'd love it, if it happens and was a success? The so called names will use us as a spring board to get the bigger jobs like Madrid.

I like the sentiment, and would normally be all for it especially as Unsie knows the kids, but the Premier League is tough for a novice, and this season is going to be absolutely manic with all the managerial egos and lavish spending. It needs experience and balls.....that's why I think Roberto Mancini is the one.

Mancini has to be the main contender. He transformed city into what they are today.

 

[evertony]

Manuel Pellegrini looks like the husk of Audrey Roberts.

Looks like Niall Quinn on a photo-ageing app.

If FdB is allowed to sign for someone else, while we fanny about waiting for other managers that are using us for new contracts, I'm gonna be furious

Why exactly? He has finished runner up in a two horse league for two years straight, apparently relies heavily on his coaching team (who by all accounts won't be following him), IF we are that arsed about getting a young Dutch manager in then why not go for Cocu instead?

 

[evertony]

Yes, there's always something to keep me going. I must stress my problem is potentially very serious but not confirmed. I'm rather overwhelmed by all the good wishes I've received. Fantastic community.

Keep your chin up mate....GOT is with you. Hope you get better news soon.

Wasn't that the Sheikhs money that transformed them into what they are today moreso mate?

 

[evertony]

Yep if we can't get Koeman or Emery then pellegrini would do.

Can't get shouldn't be in the vocabulary of the team working on our next appointment. It should be must get, will get.

Because we're obsessing over pie in the sky managers who are using us to improve their own position. FdB has the potential to be a top class manager and he's available and he wants to come. People need to realise we have been awful for the last 25 years.

 

[vintage-toffees]

Not in the know by any means nor will ever claim to be but was in the company of a true club legend last night at a barby and he assured me all is in hand and fans will be pleased with appointment it's definitely not a former manager wouldn't say specifically names on who it will be did say names mentioned in media are in the right area but there is a totally left field name not linked to us in media or betting markets who we are trying for, koeman was the only name we chatted about as the esk said was top target and had indicated to us early his interest only to change his mind reckons his agent had the nod over a job coming up next summer when his interest and evertons became public

Rodgers and LVG ...spent over £500M between them and achieved the square root of not a lot other the both getting the sack. Money doesn't necessarily mean success......my wife's shopping sprees confirm this too.

Which is in the main why people are so hopeful of targetting a top class manager mate

You think FdB is a commited lifelong blue and not himself using us as a stepping stone in his career?

You target the best you mcan do, and if you don't get them then you work down the list and a fair way down it you will find FdB - it not surprised you that he hasn't seemed close to getting hired by anyone else yet mate - depsite leaving Ajax and advertising himself as available on a dialy basis to anyone listening?

Juve Manager?

Absolutely any day of the week. Go watch a few Sevilla matches compared to a few Ajax matches from the last couple seasons. Intensity vs pedestrian.

PS was extremely tired when I wrote 'Deary me' last night so sounds snappier than intended - point stands though!
