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

More imminent announcements!

Just typical that Everton would end up with Jose's lesser known cousin, Dave.

 

[ToffeeDoug]

Dave Mourinho? Is that Jose's cousin?

Just seen your reply!

Haha.. all i can think of is Joe, Venables and Harry redknapp..

I know it must have worked really well somewhere ??

There was also Denis Wise...

It seems a bit of a messy history in the PL at least, partially because the remit of the DoF in each case has been unclear. When it appears to be an appointment due to a lack of confidence in the head coach to fulfill all of the responsibilities of a general manager it's bound to cause problems. That's why Les Reed is a good example, who has been in post for a period of six years and four managers. I think his official title is Head of Development or something similar.

I'd imagine it has worked somewhere outside the UK but I'm not sure.

 

[Moomin]

How come Mark Hughes is now second favourite behind Martin O'Neill??

What newspaper has linked him to us?

 

[Lee Smith]

Just seen your reply!

It's times like that when the correct use of grammar is so important lol

I don't fancy a director of football.

I think the only reason its appealing now, is due to the utter mess were in with Martinez and the idea that with a bit of help, he could have done much better.

A new gaffer with a strong set of coaching staff would appeal far more to myself.

If a DoF is something we're set on I think it's quite telling as to who our next manager will be, considering Koeman's been working with one for the last two years and Mourinho is pretty unlikely to want to do so.

Can we add Dave Mourinho to this poll please?

 

[Toothman]

Wasn't Ralf Somethinganic talked to about a Dof role before Bobby?

 

[Toffeelover]

save us from O'neill and Hughes, terrible prospects. To me they are just like RM but with a new set of tyres.

Out with a hamstring injury, so unlikely to pass his medical.

You can keep your Koeman

I have eyes only for Joagie

Dave Mourinho. Spotted outside The Blob Shop smoking a ten-deck of B&H around 11:30 this morning.

He wouldn't though mate

He's just signed a new 6 year contract at Southampton

I can wait for when Joagie goes in for him in two years time just after Everton have won the title
