There would be no shortage of takers.
You’d think. But our recent possible alternatives to Lampard and Dyche were Vitor Pereira (who was actually insane), Duncan Ferguson (who wasn’t even an manager) and Bielsa who ran a mile.

The sort of manager we urgently need (charismatic, intelligent, brave with a clear idea of his style) is probably still climbing the ladder, with potential rather than experience and success. So if they have any sense, they won’t crater their reputation by joining a club still in upheaval and dysfunction. Their next move would be back down the ladder again after us to try and rebuild their confidence and reputation. They’d lose money.

The only sort of manager that would ignore our chaotic state and lack of funds and purely be swayed by the PL glitz and glamour and Everton pay cheque are exactly the type we do not want.

Don't buy that at all

Emery took over Villa & Glasner took over Palace with the team in really poor shape and relegation candidates.

They are out there , it's upto the club to sift through them do their homework and get the right man in.

Their squads aren't / weren't comparible to ours at all. They also had the money to move managers on and attract quality replacements with the promise of investment.

Any manager we bring in has to work with nothing financially and the nothing's in our squad.

exactly so when people are saying

“the salary”

some managers want to go to a STABLE run club

and a club trying to go places
