He was let down here by the chaos and lack of cohesion with player trading mate, prime Moshiri chaos. Horrible luck with injuries.

Really feel he has a higher ceiling than Fulham.

Dont know if he’d come though. But he’d built and develop something. Good coach too.
I think he would,always talks very highly of us despite what happened,some unfinished business so to speak!!

I wouldn’t blame him for being a bit bitter to be honest mate, always thought he was done over, by buying and selling that summer. Prob the overall chaos behind the scenes as well. Injuries really bit to.

The last six months of the season before he had us purring.

We’ve been ridiculous when you think about it.

Doing a wonderful job at Fulham, but he’s there a while now, the only was we could draw him, would be to offer him a ground zero project with resources - which we prob would be.

If he hadn’t been here before - I think he’d be someone a lot would want objectively.

He's done well no doubt, and I have some sympathy for the circumstances he operated under here. However, I can't help but remember how much he looked like a rabbit in the headlights when things started going south. A lack of personality a lot of people suggested, and it did certainly feel that way.

Going back always carries risks too. Is it really a clean slate?

Saying all that, I've got a sneaky feeling he'll end up at the hammers or spurs, so that would be interesting to see. Maybe he'd prove me wrong.

I felt like we completely broke him to be honest. That being said, we tend to do that to most managers :lol:
 
Just for the purpose of debate would anyone consider Silva for a second time?

Especially giving the structure at the club is set to drastically change,is he someone TFG could or should consider?

We’d be replicating one of Moshiri’s mistakes, but we’d no doubt expect different results. I don’t think it’s a good idea, but it’s the exact type of thing we’ve been doing for the past 30 years, so it’s not necessarily far fetched.
 

Sacking him might have been a bit of downer for him (apart from the pay off of course )

Could be mate.

My own take would be Football managers are pragmatic, they are well paid for high pressure high risk roles and are well compensated - ultimately there isn’t a manager in the world that won’t be sacked at some point - very few aren’t, they accept it, in fact expect it. I don’t think they hold sentiment around it.

Mouhrino himself if my memory is right was pushed out of Chelsea then went back a few years later.

I’m watching his interview after the game tonight and the way he talks about the referee is hilarious. It would be interesting to see how he would take to Everton and his relationship with the fans.

Well, he did have this to say once upon a time:

But even, I reckon it's still a bit of a stretch.
