Steve Walsh - no longer our Director of Football

[Stan Lee Park]

No proof, is that the favourite saying around here now?, how long has he been in the job?, when did some of our fans turn into complete cockwombles

Don't know what the favourite saying around here is now.
But there is no proof yet that he is doing the job he is being very highly paid for.

Why don't you ask for his appraisal documents?

 

[bring the ghost on]

He gets paid a lot of money for doing a job. No proof yet that he is capable of doing that job on the evidence of this transfer window, so yes - he's in the firing line.

With regards to his scouting credentials, surely these are not in doubt - he's credited with finding diamonds like Kante, Marhez and Vardy, the backbone of a title winning side. We had a poor transfer window, but he's credited with bringing in Idrissa Gueye who looks to be a very astute acquisition.

Yes, DOF is a different job and we had a poor transfer window, but Walsh should not be in the firing line yet, he needs a few transfer windows before we can judge.

[Poor language removed] me, are you serious? He spent the summer thinking he was looking to tie up deals for a club with champions league football on offer, that changed when he came here, he's only been here a few weeks. i seriously don't know what some people expect.

TBF Woodward at Utd made an absolute Horlicks of the first few windows he was involved in and that's with their money & global appeal.

We need to get a bit real although good things come to those who wait

Yearh but we know United actually have the money

 

[Khalekan]

Did any of you consider the fact that the players we were linked with did not want to play for Everton. just a thought

Wise up.

On FM, every player they go after is dying to sign for Everton

They cannot understand why it ain't so simple in real life

 

[everton2004]

Seriously? We're questioning Walsh when he's been here just over a month? What were you expecting? For him, in that time, to sign a load of boss formerly unknown players who'd win us the league and two cups by Christmas? Seriously, the behaviour on here in the past month has been nothing short of embarrassing. Kopite behaviour. Give your heads a wobble for christ sake.

 

[vagant59]

Did you consider that they probably should have spent some time finding some that did?

Its not about who wants to come to us, its about who we want

Its the "i want it now "culture. If you listen carefully you can hear the stamping of feet. Until this week i hadn't realised that Rome was built in a day

 

[FOXINPEACE]

As others have said, unfair to judge him on this transfer window. He'll come good for ya

If he's been behind Gana, Williams and Stekelenberg then for me he's already coming good.

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

Give the bloke a chance!

New club, new role. He's got 4 months now to put a structure in place.

 

[steele]

It's a challenge for our club that we can't offer European Cup this season and maybe this has put off some of our targets. There is also a limit on the value Everton puts on the players. A bit harsh to blame Walsh for missing on some players. We are not weakened, but probably a bit short up front

 

[Jags..class]

Walsh is long term plan. He needs to see our team, understand how Koeman building his team, look for players who can fit in, and make sure we have a stable team in when managers come and go.

 

[bluestevon]

If he's been behind Gana, Williams and Stekelenberg then for me he's already coming good.

Stek is certain a koeman signing same with Williams mate although Walsh likely agreed as both been strongly linked in the past to him, gana looks Walsh all over though. Good all three though.
