This will continue to be premature until the end of the season or the middle of a really wretched run. That said I'd like for us to go for someone with a defined way of playing. Someone who is going to buy players for a system and not take our 4-2-3-1 and try to mold that. 4-3-3, 3-4-3, 4-4-2 or anything else I don't care but a clear and unwavering plan. I'm not really sure of any names but this is what I'm hoping for. We've had 3 straight managers come in and play 4-2-3-1 because that's what was left for them and they never got around to changing it to what they wanted originally. No more.
 
Just watched it again Dave , Keane starts to cover then stops , Wilson has the run on him ....game over.
Coleman should have been dealing with the winger too.
Bad defending all round.
Mina could've gotten back a but quicker, but Keane and Coleman indeed need to support or at least look at each other and stay in line. Even if Mina hustles back he's not getting there.

Kinda hard when you've got two DM/CMs healthy.

Delph, Davies, Schneiderlin and if you are switching systems Sigurdsson can slot in too. Gomes shouldn't be long term either.

Regardless it doesn't feel likely to happen at any point. Marco seems intent on getting the same old 4-2-3-1 to work just like the rest of our managers. Nevermind that basically zero top teams are playing it currently.
 
Look again, I said it is down to the manager did not voice sacking Silva. Do you not think Silva has had sufficient time in the job?


You don’t make the call to keep a manager into a 2nd season and then sack him after 5 league games.

That is lunacy to do so. It would also hint at short term panic and a lack of strategy from the club.

7 points from 5 games is not cause for panic or for the club to steer away from a strategy they were willing to commit fully to a few weeks ago.

Unless something dramatic happens the time to review things is May 2020.
 

Next manager should be someone in my view whom is taking the club to the next level either now or in the future - Silva is not a top 4 manager so it all depends on the clubs roadmap...if 6-10th is it,then that,s the mark of a manager we will be employing with the appropriate budget to support that goal.
 
Just someone who will shift the cowards and salary slurpers put the club. .

I’d love someone with a set of balls to actually manage the club.
 
I don't believe for one second that our manager is under threat to lose his job at the moment. He will be given time to turn things around, get players back from injury and the new players settled.

That patience will not be indefinite but, as long as we are getting enough points to keep us ticking along until Christmas at least I think he is safe and then after Christmas it would be expected that a more settled team should then pick up better results having us challenging for a position between 6th and eight.

If that is not what happens and he is removed from his job I do not want another untested young manager that we take a flier on. We have done this with Martinez, Silva and to a degree Koeman. Arteta may be great, but there is absolutely nothing to suggest that he would be, it isn't as if Pep never won anything until he teamed up with Arteta.

Next time I want an older manager with a history of winning prizes and somebody who has managed big clubs to come in and establish us in the top six.
We need to become a top six club for a two or three year period before we are even close to moving to the next level and I would like a manager who knows what that is all about.

My personal choice would be Benitez , Mourinho.. managers of that ilk. At present out of work or managing in that hotbed of world football... China.

We are a big club, we have a chairman who is prepared to spend and I think we have a squad of players that experienced managers would feel they could work with. We are a club, I feel, that big name managers might just feel that we have sufficient standing in the game to consider joining us.

It is a theoretical question as we do have a manager but in the event of a vacancy who would you have ?
My first choice was Fonseca and I would still go for him. I cannot accept a former RS manager as our manager sorry.
I don't watch a lot of Football outside of Everton so I don't know who are the young and hip managers are.
 
I’d only swap for Jose if it was a mid season job, if not then wait for the end of the season (if it necessitates). The problem is that a lot of managers just aren’t arsed about Everton. It would just end up being another Koeman type who saw Everton as a stepping stone and definitely not a club who deserved to challenge the top 6. We’d end up punting on an ex Everton player or another up and comer who may end up as another Martinez.

Whom should be used to refer to the object of a verb or preposition. When in doubt, try this simple trick: If you can replace the word with “he”’ or “’she,” use who. If you can replace it with “him” or “her,” use whom.

  • Who should be used to refer to the subject of a sentence.
  • Whom should be used to refer to the object of a verb or preposition.
