The next manager appointment (new thread)

[OnlyTheBestIsGoodEnough]

It was. Unquestionably. If memory serves, the only player we bought BEFORE Villarreal was Phil Neville. What ambition.

Kenwright was a charlatan whose best decision ever was to listen to Walter Smith's recommendation of David Moyes. Moyes acted as his shield. He did a great job with what he had - which wasn't much - but he lacked the ability - and serious backing - to make us winners when chances came (and they came in the FA Cup on multiple occasions but we came a cropper against Reading and Wigan with only City - who we regularly beat back then - left).

A lack of ambition and funding should never be an obstacle again. If that is the case, then we await the competence to take advantage of such resources.

We had some good times though right

Get him in, and get him in now.

I would love it if the day this is all finalised, Big Dan does a press conference with the new manager and DoF sitting next to him. That would be such a lift. Won’t happen of course, nice things rarely do for us, but it would be boss

It is, but we don't play pretty well this season tho, but are in a good spot in the table.

His sacking at Barcelona was pretty harsh, sacked after losing in a Copa semi, while being first in the table, after 3 titles in 2 seasons before.

But he was never popular, because everyone knows the Barcelona DNA with possession-based football. His style is far more vertical like the difference you see of Spain when they won Euros this year or 08-12. f

Well it's all relative, they look like Brazil 1970 compared to Everton!

….we’ll need a manager with a record of building a new team which will also require a new DOF with a record of acquiring good footballers with a restricted budget.

Brighton esque?

Jep, you are not very spoiled with good football that's true. But it's good to train your inner masochism.

but we wii be premier league “gash”

 

[Bebeto]

Not sure we can find someone that can make this current squad win games, at least not someone we can get for free or very cheap...maybe moyes could be the less risky option bearing in mind where we are currently, which could be seen a little bit like a side move really rather than somebody that will make us great again
