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

[kithnou]

SAF and Baldy Charlton to name just two mate.

Fans will lynch the lot of them.

We might have financial backing. That doesn't mean we should be held to ransom, or that we're frivolous with the dough.

Surely it's not being held to ransom, it's paying the market rate for the best manager in the premiere league. It's either we're ambitious enough to try or we stick to the status quo of aiming for top 7.
Take away 15m from the reported 100m budget and we'll still be able to purchase 5 or 6 players at 15m each to bolster the squad. Hardly frivolous.

In the gym this morning with at least 4 Untied fans and they asked me who I thought we would get for our new manager and I said, "Jose!".
And they all said... "Good, cos we don't want him".
Was music to my ears

I would suggest that Jose could in reality almost be a self-funding appointment and I ask learned posters like @The Esk @bizzaro @hibbo'sclass and others with better business acumen than I to confirm/rubbish/comment on the following musings...

If he came, season ticket sales would almost certainly go through the roof... Increased revenue.

If he came, a whole range of Jose/Everton merchandise would sell like hot cakes... New revenue.

If he came, our media coverage would immediately increase by a ridiculous percentage and we'd likely get more to games than currently planned... Increased revenue.

If he came, that very same massively increased media exposure could/would likely attract more corporate customers and advertisers... New and increase revenue.

If he came and if he had the same kind of instant trophy-winning success that he has had elsewhere, the cash till would go into overdrive with prize money, even more potential corporate, advertisers and sponsorship deals... More new and increased revenue.

Jose is a win-win and Everton need to be relentless in getting him !!!!

Exactly, he's basically earning his own wages.

Hypothetical, most of it.

It mainly depends on how well Mourinho'd do. Don't do so well (Or no better than moylez) and the MSM'll soon get bored of him...And especially because he'd be at Everton, who they've taken very little notice of over the years.

And it's not about Mourinho. We're Everton. We laugh at the other shower because they're all about das beaut.

Over the moon that moyes is on zero. Game over for me if he returns.

...it's the turn for Mourinho's odds to shorten this morning, plenty of blue on Oddschecker but nobody seems to have an informed view of what's happening.

You get 5 players in at £15m and pay them how much exactly?

Then the next batch of players come in, and they see the others being paid so much, so their agents say: "Well 'x' is getting 'x' amount, my boy wants...."

And so on.

Who in their right mind would keep LVG for one more season, and lose Jose in the process?

I think he will come in for 1 year to help put the club back on the world stage.
Then go to ManU

 

[matty1878]

I hope our board read these polls lol Jose by a country mile!!!!!!!

 

[Abertonian]

NSNO means we have to at least try to get Mourinho.

 

[Whistlin' Dixie]

Wonder what'd happen with Lukaku if Mourinho comes?

If there's one thing Jose loves more than football it's popcorning. Signing for Everton he'd have bails of the stuff it'd be meltdown everywhere and he'd love it. Some people still don't believe in the "special one" and being a success at Everton would cement it once and for all. Moshy just needs to sell it him and lads like that, once they have their minds made up, don't take no for an answer.

He would lap it up. The idea that he shocked everyone and ended up at Everton I can just imagine the press conference firstly the sound of jaws hitting the floor would be deafening. Then Mourinho sitting next to Moshri and telling the press he will win us the league! On sky there would be re runs for hours that's after they break the news in there usual way.

I know it is a long shot and people think it's not possible but we are Everton we have to get that believe back. Our new owner has not come to waste several hundred million he will want the success that he didn't get at Arsenal and to do that he needs the best.

Even if we don't get Mourinho now the Martinez era is over it's time for us to believe again have ambitions of winning the league. And if we have the ambition people like Mourinho will follow they have egos none bigger than him. This would feed that ego.

Just 8/1 on SkyBet and joint 4th favourite behind De Boer, Koeman and Hughes. Funny how the media haven't commented on him at all though.

Jose has won trophies everywhere he has been, so we could be quietly confident that within two or three years, he would bring silverware... And to suggest he might be no better than Moyes is just laughable.

Jose at Everton would elevate Everton back into the media spotlight, redressing the little notice issue of recent years.

It is about Mourinho, in exactly the same way that we lovingly remember and talk about Bally, the Golden Vision, even Dixie - all of whom began their careers with other clubs and then joined Everton.

We took them to our hearts and they took us/the club to their hearts... Why could it not be the same with Jose Mourinho?
