I typed we in capitals by error, i wasn't talking about us as fans, i was talking about we as in the club. My point was that the club may think he is a good appointment based on his record so far but Southgate is our 2nd most successful manager in terms of achievements. Only second to Ramsey because Alf won a trophy. But he could argued to be the best because he has two final appearances and a 4th place. But we all know England achieved what did in spite of him not because of him. We should have won Euro 2020 but for his game management. We should have got to the final of World Cup 2018 but for the same reason. In terms of Win percentage he is 4th overall. but Allardyce and Carsley are ahead him but have both only had minimal games. The only one above him with any considerable amount of games is CApello who managed 2 1/2 times less the amount of games Southgate did. So there is strong case statistically to say he is the best England Manager of all time. But we know that is rubbish and we wouldnt want him managing our club
Carsley has limited managerial experience and would be too much of a risk for my liking. I would love to have him and he be a roaring success but because of the predicament we are in we need to limit risks where we can. I wouldnt want the next manager of Everton to be anyone who has not got a good track record at more than one club. Mike walker was brilliant at Norwich but lousy for use, similarly Walter Smith who was excellent at Rangers but not with us. I would feel more reassured if I knew the next manager was a little more proven
