Steve Walsh - no longer our Director of Football

[Caolam]

The only thing about Walsh going that is bad is that Fat Sam may be in charge of our transfer policy

 

[KaiserEFC]

If he goes this requires full on street parties complete with burning Walsh effigies and AK47’s being fired into the air all down county road (more than usual that is)

 

[Bungle]

He's going to sign Martina up to a 4 year contract extension as a parting shot isnt he?

Horrible little weasel.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Be delighted if he gets the boot even before the end of the season. First him, then Sam, then B.K. Then I can get excited about Everton again.

He’s starting to get the boot now

Podcast lays in to him

 

[APN_EFC]

It all comes back to the idea that we don’t have a plan
We were copying the Leicester idea with Walsh, but then Sigurdsson, Rooney, Martina, Tosun (I hope he does well though) and then suddenly go from RM to Koeman to Allardyce - and then Shakespeare’s here??!!! No strategy and authority - if he comes up with one then great!

..I think the scope of the DoF job is much more than being a scout and it looks like Walsh is not capable of filling the role. I wouldn’t be surprised if Walsh realises this.

 

[mightymoyes]

When's the last time we signed a player from abroad that could be termed a success?
Fellaini?
We must have the worst scouts in Europe.

 

[Deco]

We need a seriously good DOF. Spend whatever it takes. Someone who will ensure we play good football and get a real manager / coach.

 

[bullybeef]

I think it’s now very likely that we will see Walsh and Allerdyce depart the club.

Walsh before the seasons out and Allerdyce when the season finishes.

All the noise indicates that the DOF from PSV is Moshiri’s man to replace Walsh.
Dutch football is very weak so I hope the appointment is made on the mans credentials rather than the achievements of PSV in a weak league.

 

[bring the ghost on]

When's the last time we signed a player from abroad that could be termed a success?
Fellaini?
We must have the worst scouts in Europe.

Think you’re right, every signing from a foreign league has been a disappointment since Fellaini. Which is ridiculous when you consider the success our conpetitord have had buying from abroad.

 

[riddick]

I don't get why we don't seem to be looking at Germany for a DoF role. Strong emphasis on youth, tons of good players brought in as well.

 

[Nymzee]

Let's get someone with DoF on their CV.

 

[Azza]

I don't get why we don't seem to be looking at Germany for a DoF role. Strong emphasis on youth, tons of good players brought in as well.

Nah what we need are more 60 year old English men who are stuck in their ways and have no imagination or creative thought in them.

That'll win us trophies.

He's had almost 6 months to try and find a left back/defender which was obvious from the first few games. It then took him to the deadline on deadline day to sign a dud from City on loan. Sums the man up, a total waste of money.
