Yeah. If rumors were to be believed, Davide took the majority of coaching sessions.
The players seemed to like him.
The thing about Ancelotti snr was that he could get a team to play as a team but also let players play to their strengts.
Sure the football wasnt the prettiest at times but it was clear he knew what he was working with.
He knew the team needed a player like James and he made sure everyone did their part to accommodate someone like that.
It was the first and last time in donkeys years I enjoyed watching Everton play for a prolonged period.
Sure we played like a bunch of yard dogs at times but magic could happen.
If he's anything like his dad, get him in.
Yea it was enjoyable under Ancelotti Snr. You could trust him.
I heard that jr was heavily involved in the coaching and well liked too.
Presumably some of the man management skills have rubbed off and if taking Pep's assistant works for top teams, there is no reason Ancelotti's assistant and son isn't worth a shot.
 
Interim hire should be the play. An okay manager that has lost the locker room and fans is worse than a poor manager or an unknown (as Lampard proved with his first year). You do not want a long term hire here- just somebody that can take the reigns until new ownership comes in.
 

Thomas frank would be great but u don't think he'd leave brentford. I think we should go for tuchel he's still out of work ,has mentioned being open to coming here in the past and can be pragmatic but not ultra negative. Also he's possesses a degree of pedigree and unlike carlo who is a legend obviously I think tuchel would be interested in a project
We need owners to come in first to lay out a “project”,I think if we sacked him now our choice of boss would be extremely limited,I’d be more inclined to get rid of him and even look at a caretaker manager in the interim,maybe Baines and Tait,they could hardly be worse than this donut.

Jep, I know for example under SAF also the assistants made a lot.

Brian Kidd, Phelan and Meulenstein failed terribly as first team managers.

Queiroz was alright
Steve McClaren, good at Twente and Mborough don't speak about the rest.

Yea for sure, doesn't always work but besides Queiroz I never heard there was much other than being a sounding board among SAF assistants.
By SAF own admission he wasn't a great tactician though and none of those had his personality.
