Paulo Fonseca

This I could live with. Fonseca a cut above Silva for me.

There’s still hope.

I have trouble with folk dismissing the way Silva went AWOL at Watford when we came calling.

Like, no one knows the background as to why he did, maybe they had a gents agreement that he could talk to other clubs cos he had a short contract, who knows. But either way, concerns me nevertheless.
 

If we honestly could get both and we choose Silva then it just shows we are still small time for me. This guy has been winning things recently whether it isn’t the greatest league or not, he has won. He also did very well in the Champions League exactly were we want to get to. Silva basically didn’t bother once we came knocking at Watford and yes Hull played better under him but they still went down.
 
Its not only that Dave, its the winning and the style of football, something weve been deprived of for a very long time barring Martinez first season which admittedly was enjoyable.
I have nothing against him arriving here. I just dont get the "Silva is a poor man's Fonseca" rationale. Fonseca's done ok in Euro competition...but then so too did Alex McLeish. :coffee:
 
I want it to be Fonseca so I can morph into @davek and desperately defend my choice when he turns out to be massively underwhelming.

Make a change from being a smug/miserable git who has been proven right on just about every Everton managerial choice and signing for the last 4 years :)
How does someone "desperately defend" a manager who gets us club points/match win records and extended cup runs?

You must elaborate on this.

Don’t tell me you’re a Silva fan Dave?

Then again you do like managers who enjoy throwing away leads ;)
 
London vs Liverpool.

Happens all the time, and will continue to happen, unless it's Liverpool FC vs London. Most big managers/players don't even know we exist.
You can fool yourself into believing that, but its not true. Every big manager and player is aware of the top 10 teams in the premier league.
