Next manager discussion (poll reset 21/05/2016)

[Gerbs]

No, but it's a far cry better than 11th.

And he's done it on a limited budget having had to deal with the mass exodus of key players each window.

1st season - OUT: Lallana, Lovren, Lambert, Shaw

2nd season - OUT: Clyne, Schneiderlin.

All the while he's shown an astuteness in the transfer market (Tadic, Mane, Van Dijk, Pelle, etc...) and looked to play expansive football with a solid base, while also not being afraid to encourage and integrate youth into the first team.

Sounds a whole lot like Moyes to me. But we are more "ambitious" now

Hey @The Esk, forgetting the manager situation for a moment, what now on the Monchi front?

I would imagine he'll be waiting the outcome of the managerial position before committing one way or the other.

Shane long tho? Shane effin long.

Don't get me wrong i wouldn't be upset. Certainly not the way I would that fraud Moyes walked in. Just hate the thought of the club being used as a stepping stone when I feel it should be a destination. Partly the reason I'm so irritated with lukaku.

The thought of monchi/Emery coming to Everton to build something was amazing. Though if Emery turned the offer down koemen is certainly a solid option. Rather him than de boer etc.

Completely agree, RK obviously has eyes on other jobs - but its upto Moshiri to prove to him that we aren't the stepping stone and we can fulfil ambitions, if he can match ours, which is aiming a lot higher then we have previously.

He is a solid appointment, has good winning %'s everywhere he goes, could have a massive stash of cash to play with with a DoF (hopefully Monchi) there is no reason we can't be aligned with ambition.

If he doesnt match Moshiri's ambition and targets, he will get the boot thats for sure, and probably the one thing i reckon is nailed on form now on. If your not upto scratch your gone.

Eh? Moyes was at Preston, in 2001-02...

Out of the two managers, Emery's style is much more similar to Moyes' than Koeman's is.

Honours wise, they're both very different to Moyes...

 

[neil999]

Almost as good an idea than Pickled Onions Neil

bit harsh..

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

Very interesting this, has there been anything our media bar Sky's hyperbole?

Nope just some Jarg re-hashed stuff from those losers in the Echo press office. personally Emery/Monchi is still on for me at this stage

 

[Matty_j1878]

Don't want Koeman because the amount of young Gwladys Street youth that will be wearing Amsterday Hats will be rife.

 

[smileychap]

WOWZY.

You're just a BIG load of sprinkles & glitter you are mate.

Shall we wait 3 years till a stadium's built then, playing 'the kids' under a caretaker, it'll fly by that eh?

Embrace it man, we've been head-patted and patronised enough to last a lifetime.

One, it'd be amazing and ) yes it would fly by if that 'Caretaker' were an Everton character we trust and love who grew with the club in a new role like managing it successfully - only with some financial support.

Who's head patted and patronized Everton anyway? I think we're a stand out club that the PLCs who've sold out envy. We're a proper club with ex-players studded into the development of U21s. I don't think we were patronized in the league or in Europe. We just got beat more as we lost the values that had us knocking on the 5 or 6 consistently.

Let's call on that 15 years of experience that's had us punching above our financial might and give them a level Stadium and Youth infrastructure to play on.

Very generous to give him that credit. I don't think he had a whole lot to do with it. they've completely revamped their recruiting process and it'll be solid with or without him.

 

[BlueIsTheColour]

the reason I don't want Koeman is not because I don't think hes a good manager, it because I will always know he will be off when a better opportunity comes along..be that Arsenal or Barca or whoever, if he comes to us he has shown no loyalty to Southampton and would do the same to us when the time comes.
Emery on the other hand has been courted by various clubs over the past few years and hasn't left because he wanted to finish what he started or the opportunity hasn't been right for him, he would I hope do the same if he were Everton manager.
I would obviously support Koeman is he were our manager but I wouldn't never quite trust him I don't think...and after fully trusting Moyes (until near the end) and Bobby that they both had the clubs best interests at heart and 'got' the club I think that would be a hard situation to be in.

 

[neil999]

Shane long tho? Shane effin long.

done well for them, top quality strikers are hard to come by..especially for southampton

 

[Bungle]

What a difference 10 days make...

We were having to sell the 'project' hard to desired managers and now they are having to sell themselves to us.

How refreshing.

Clearly the powers-that-be have done an outstanding job.

Should be pretty much finalised this week and there should be a very clear indication who that will be by the end of the day.

So the tables turned and they've had to sell themselves to us, only to turn down the offer? Seems legit.

 

[larrygobfiend]

Adding Koeman would just reinforce the idea that we are ok being a midtable team that values net-spending over actual accomplishments.

I quite like your name. do you come here often?

Thanks! This all feels so odd. By all accounts, Emery was ready and willing to move to the PL. Why would he suddenly do a 180 and turn it down?
