Who could potentially replace Martinez?

[bluegirl]

You're not trying hard enough.

True, I haven't thought into it much just no one springs to mind.

 

[By god I'm blue]

I'd prefer to have someone with a superior managerial record than the clown; someone who puts winning ahead of playing boring, stagnant ineffective football that has brought us our worst league performance in 80 years.

Someone like Steve McClaren, or that ginger feller who was poached by Manchester United after managing to get Everton regularly finishing between 5th and 8th despite not spending a penny for a period of two and a half years.

*Awaits some numbskull to vilify Moyes, as if he was some kind of drastic pleb who had Everton playing like Wimbledon* Rather than recognising that Moyes is a very good manager who dragged Everton out of the footballing doldrums, and was then poached by the third biggest club in world football, and who is responsible for Everton's most successful performance in the Premier League.

Have you forgotten Moyes comments that Everton were holding back Baines and Fellaini's career when they turned down his paltry offer of 30m for the pair?

For that reason alone, I would rather see the man burning at the stake than managing our football team again.

If you put a gun to my head I'd probably say de Boer. Not that it's going to happen and not that Martinez is likely to be sacked.

Pochettino was here one season and has just got himself the Spurs job mate, Rodgers got the RS gig over his work at Swansea, martinez was touted as Wengers long term successor after last season and no doubt Koeman will be in line for a top job after this season.

The premier league has become the X Factor of leagues mate. You can dance and sing outside St John's market (Dutch,turkish etc.) league for as long as you want and not get noticed or perform a hit in the live shows over here and let the media hype do the rest for you.

For me I would be massively shocked if we couldn't attract those managers. The chance to walk into a squad with Players like Lukaku, Mirallas, Barkley, Coleman, Baines etc. And a good wage is very attractive. My only worry would be if Kenwright went for someone like those names or went for someone underwhelming, but for me Martinez won't change things around and it's a massive gamble to give him another 1-2 years, risk mid table finishes and the leaving of our said quality players with little money to replace them, that's when it would become a challenge to attract a decent manager in imo

Getting the Spurs job is what you do when you want to get a big job; it's the means, not the ends.

Rodgers was an amazing left field choice for Liverpool...and it hasn't worked out. He's more an advert for how not to recruit at a big club. Koeman may or may not get a big club. I doubt it'll be in England though.

Tommy Tuchel?

Everyone knows about Tommy Tuchel. He's that feller who won...erm...and did....erm.....

haha you made your position on the assumption he was still there and your failing miserably at justifying it now

Ha Ha Ha.

Wants to avoid dull boring football...then advocates Moyes' return.

*sigh*

Can't agree with that.

Got them within a hair width of winning the league in his second full season and back into the CL. Nailed on to win the cup this year and very likely top 4, so if they do you have to say a big success..

5/1 double

This has to be THE thread that'll be mined for mirth next season when the Bobby Brown Shoes hero worship is back on track again.

Tommy Tuchel and Eddie Howe.

FFS.

You mean the comments he made after he had left Everton and started working for Manchester United?

Yes, they were disrespectful. But football is a business. Too much time and money is in jeopardy for people to hang on to small grudges, it just leads to people cutting their own noses off in order to spite their own faces.

Moyes has shown that he has the capability to adequately manage Everton, and I personally wouldn't allow a few comments he made whilst he was operating for another employer to affect that.

He basically shat in the face of Everton.

'disrespectful' doen't quite cover it.

Yes mate. Because Moyes football wasn't boring. It was certainly a damn site more exciting than the incredibly boring ineffective dross dished up by Martinez this season.

You can carry on revising all you want, and you can continue to portray Moyes as some kind of drastic pleb who served up Wimbledon style football. But it just simply isn't true, and anyone who isn't a gobshite is aware of this.

 

[formerly manx toffee]

never go back....it never works.


er...unless you are Portuguese......that's right.....never go back unless you are Portuguese.

It was route one, direct football.

He had Everton pegged as that and for good reason: apart from a handful of occasions we were predictable. That;s not revision, and I doubt too many would see it as anything other than an accurate description of what consistently happened. We were a reflection of the manager - basic, no nonsense, no style, no frills....and that;s leaving aside the issue of his contemptible and unforgivable behaviour.

Nonsense. He was contracted to work for Everton for 11 years, and that's exactly what he did. He must have done a decent job as well, as the third biggest club in world football poached him having observed his performance at Everton.

He made the comments when he was working for Manchester United, he had stopped working for Everton by then. They were disrespectful comments but I think I'm just about over it by now. And I wouldn't let it get in the way of Everton choosing to employ someone who is actually capable of managing Everton.

That's because I put the wellbeing of Everton FC ahead of schoolgirl crushes, or little gripes about a few comments that were made when someone was being employed by a COMPETITOR of ours.
