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

[The Esk]

Good to know, but "likely" and "will" are not the same.

Unequivocally, the brief is to recruit the highest quality manager available with winning experiences at domestic and/or European levels, big league experience, premier league experience a large bonus.

I keep saying this. You wouldn't appoint a first year high school student to be the CEO of a major company.

Why on Earth would Everton allow someone with no experience behind the wheel?

We're a major club. Not a third tier club where you can cut your teeth.

We probably didn't have the resources or players in the past to attract anything but a young up and coming manager but now we should have the ambition to try and get someone a level up.

Definitely not in favour of Martin being first choice, but his resume is somewhat impressive. Did well with Leicester, great with Villa, and quite impressive with Celtic too (although I imagine not that difficult). Ireland beat Germany this season, and are on their way to the Euros.

I did hear a whisper from someone who used to work on the coaching side at the club that O'Neill is seen as a possibility if the search for primary targets becomes sticky.

Let's be honest. You didn't.

Its the 'plucky little Everton' tag.

Some people actually believe it.

My choices:

1) Mourinho
2) Bilic
3) Martinez

I find it incredible the consensus from 'proper' fans is that Bilic is not applicable, but we read many stories about Benitez and nobody bats an eyelid. I'm probably going to get grief for suggesting Bilic again.

Go all out to get Mourinho, or go all out to get Bilic. We have the money, we have the hope, we have a new stadium on the horizon, and Bilic has never been anything but complimentary about Everton, the fans and all connected.

'I came with great expectations of playing for our chairman, Peter Johnson. The club was, and will always be, big enough to win the league.

“Unfortunately I got injured but I enjoyed it, it was a massive club. The people are great here.'

Keep posting this way Esk, my confidence is growing by the day.

Bet Victor wouldn't even let me bet a fiver. £1.25 maximum stake.

It's never a serious market manager betting, just a bit of fun, people needn't read much into it.

Why on earth would Bilic leave West Ham.

Yep.

 

[bizzaro]

If Martin O'Neil arrived at Everton. Think would be all too much for me...

 

[blue61]

Why on earth would Bilic leave West Ham.

Plus he's already got a new stadium.

 

[helpimonfire]

Mr Low would do for me.

I don't want to not give them/him credit for the season they have had... but if they don't hold on to Payet then I expect their other mercurial players to blow hot and cold and for him to be exposed as a bit of a clueless nugget when they have an average season next season.

They did well to acquire the players that they have and build a good team but I place him alongside Pardew in the 'hand-clappy motivator' stakes... not a tactician.
