Does anyone think this calibre of manager would come to Everton? I know the Premier League is currently very attractive, and we are financially in a better position now we have Moshri on board, but I'd be surprised if they didn't have better offers. We aren't a club who can buy top of the range players, probably can't attract top name managers either.
Personally I think it's astronomically unlikely that either would come to Everton.
However, i think people even discussing the possibility is predicated on one of them (let's take Mourinho for argument's sake) wanting to come to or stay in the Premier League.
José has said his next job will be in England. Now if we take that to be true, the next question becomes, where is he going to go. The obvious answer is United. But recent rumours seem to indicate that it's more likely that either van Gaal stays on, or even that Giggs becomes the next manager.
Now IF we discount United (a jump, but not as big a one as it seemed a few weeks back) then what are his options?
Chelsea: No for obvious reasons
Man City: Just appointed Pep
Arsenal: If and when Wenger leaves, he'll almost certainly have a say in appointing the new man. Hell will freeze over before he gives it to Mourinho
Liverpool: They've already got their new idol
Tottenham: Can't see Pochettino leaving with how they're doing at the moment.
So i think that's the reasoning - IF he wants to stay in the PL, and IF the Utd job doesn't happen - he's actually a bit short on options.
As I said, I don't imagine there's much, if any chance of him coming to Everton (for starters Martinez would have to be sacked, which I don't think will happen), but I guess there is some sort of logic to the argument that it COULD happen.
