Vitor Pereira

Next season when they hire Rooney he will have the Championship league experience to make him the right fit for Championship league Everton.

I'm shocked people think we can appoint a better manager. We have toxic fans, incompetent board, crap players and FFP over our head. I don't want Vitor but we get what we deserve and if we don't support him (If it's to be him) then the championship beckons.

My point here is that I didn’t say it was

Then why mention it?

I'm shocked people think we can appoint a better manager. We have long suffering fans exasperated with an incompetent board, crap players and FFP hamstringing us from making sustained investment City and Chelsea style. I don't want Vitor but we get what we deserve and if we don't support him (If it's to be him) then the championship beckons.

Fixed that for you.

This is a ridiculous appointment on so many levels. Whilst I agree that if a manager comes into an interview with a clear and coherent plan as to how to solve our problems they should be considered, now is not the time for this kind of appointment.

Appointing an unpopular, temporary manager only gives our pathetic players further excuses to continue not trying.

Then why mention it?

It was a direct comparison to someone who doesn’t have either playing or managing experience within the premier league that’s why.

I don't think he's as bad as being made out. He's got a better record at Porto than Paulo Fonseca, Julien Lopetegui and Nuno Espirito Santo (all three followed his reign in charge).

My only reservation is I don't think he's the man to come in at this point of the season and turn it around - although I could be wrong. We have the players to stay up, we just need someone to get the best out of them and if the players buy into his style of play it should be enough to see us through.

But still, it's a massive gamble and I don't like that muppet Moshiri using our club as his playground.

To be fair I don't think anyone's saying he's an amateur coach or anything, just that his record isn't one that should merit him even being considered for this job. I mean we've just had one manager who had been successful 10 years ago and then bounced around doing lesser jobs without success before going to China for the money because his time in the sun was over, and it went absolutely horrifically. It's maybe not that surprising then, that people aren't happy about us replacing him with someone with a CV that's like a poundland version of his.

That works for me

Looks like it’s this guy and I’ve previously posted my anger at this gerrymandered appointment. Now I hear a protest planned outside the ground and banners already up saying sack him.
My view is this and please do not bother to reply with the usual name calling as I’m to old to be called a helmet or a weapon !
The only issue and priority now is to not get relegated so fans board players manager ex players staff Everyone who is an Evertonian must be positive and play a positive role in supporting the team
Once we are safe then we can debate criticise protest demonstrate
I go the match and have noticed that the vibe is we expect to get beat and this has got to change.
We all must fight every second of every game to avoid relegation
Be positive be committed be blues
Stow all the negativity until we are safe

I agree to the extent that, once he is given the job, if that is what happens, then we should all get 100% behind him.

But at this stage he has not been given the role and, in all honesty, I cannot think of a worse manager to give it to given what I have read about him, his management style, his preferred playing style, and the frequency that he falls out with players. We are truly in the brown stuff and if we are to avoid relegation this season we need somebody who can galvanise this squad. Even Benitez would be preferable to this guy and he was taking us only one way. So we, the fans, need to do everything legal within our power to prevent our owner appointing this guy. If that involves demonstrations I have absolutely no issue with that.

 

[Death]

If he comes in and picks a completely original side of his own and completely stamps down hos way and isn't a continuation of the last several manager player choices. He would have won a lot of respect and a bit of time.

And again, why is that relevant?

 

[MarkHollis]

Yes but managers in that position aren't interested.

We need to find the next top manager before they are established and let them establish themselves at the top table here. We have no other option.

Vitor Perreira? What is the point...

Plenty of up and coming managers with modern ideas about playstyle and tactics would jump at the opportunity to manage in the PL. Nobody at board or executive level at Everton will know who any of these people are though, which I guess is the real problem here.

 

[Zeitgeist]

The media are doing a fantastic on essentially reporting nothing aren't they? Daily Mirror etc reporting ups and downs as if some crazy rollercoaster is happening, when in reality, nothing is happening, nothing is decided and we will find out once it is.

Typical media really

It's less to do with the style of the football and more the mentality. Allardyce's bleh football would have been tolerated far more if he didn't set us up in a damage control set-up whenever we played a good team.

All most Evertonians ask is that we actually try and win with some sort of a gameplan, even if that gameplan is soaking up the pressure and making counter attacks count like Ancelotti did during that win at Anfield.

Negative tactics and negative attitude are different things, which is something the Allardyce fans could seemingly never grasp.

Allardyce had a good opportunity to play more expansive football one he got us the points for safety. He could have tried to move the ball quicker and forward. He didnt. He never took that opportunity. If I can remember correctly when asked why he didnt he said something along the lines of ( I needed results to keep the job). I thought this was ridiculous. What he needed was some sort of identity to show the fans what was possible for the next season. Deep down I'm wondering was the pay off packet much too tempting and it was an easy out.
