Who should replace Frank Lampard?

[Papa Shango]

Bruce could be worth a shout?

COYB!

John.

He's retired.

 

[ToffeePaulie]

He's retired.

Thank fk

The one good thing is that other teams look to the Everton board to get things right so expect the right man in tonight

We need a coach, not an old school manager, and Bielsa is a coach above all. But I have no idea how he could possibly implement his style on these players.

It would probably work ok next year if we went down, but I don't see how we would survive playing Bielsa - ball

That's the issue. Bringing in a manager to get them to play how he wants and not how they can is what put us here in the first place.

Pace, stamina, aggression under Bielsa. None of these players have that.

 

[blue to the bone]

If we get Bielsa I'd hope he would appoint @COYBL25 as his translator. His work with Joey has been exceptional and he gets the Club.

If you were British maybe for the chance to manage a historically huge club, these days the only reason would be a wheelbarrow full of cash.

He’s built them up to being a handy club, well run, great structure, idolised there.

He’ll be going for the goal of Europe or a Trophy to confirm Brentford legendary status unless a team with a plan come for him.

 

[John96]

He's retired.

Could be tempted out by the Everton project I reckon.

COYB!

John.

 

[Shevin Keedy]

All very fair and logical, but then you must remember we are owned by Farhad Moshiri.

If there's one thing Farhad likes, it's a superstar manager. Now, that manager may be a superstar purely because of his playing career, like Koeman or Lampard, or he might be a superstar because of his managerial career, like Ancelotti or Benitez, but he likes a superstar. Bielsa is right up his street.

It is what it is.

Is Bielsa a superstar player or a superstar manager?

Bruce could be worth a shout?

COYB!

John.

Absolutely not

 

[Curtis]

Money talks... I'll bet he's not earning 'Everton money' there so may be tempted... he'd be my choice out of all the clowns linked

He also just signed a new contract a month or so ago and has a pretty stable squad

 

[TheBigIguana]

What’s half baked about it?

It doesn't have the necessary constraints. You can't send 8 players in flowing attacks or always press and expect to not get cut open far too often.

 

[BramleyMoore2024]

Can we afford Tom Cruise, he was good in “Mission Impossible”, don’t think anybody else will keep us up

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

We have a project...

Anybody?

 

[HuddersfieldToffee]

I know I am always a Gallardo fan-boy, but knowing his effect on HTAFC, I wish Carlos Coberan was still available. He transformed town in his time there, and is doing the same to West Brom.

But Bielsa would be badass.

On the plus sides we dont have 8 players capable of attacking.
