Who's next after Benitez - Poll reset 25th Jan

[MikeH72]

We must have an experienced manager.

No one learning on the job.

Cannavaro is a bit left field, but he does have experience.

Koeman had experience and won loads as a player.

It's Thursday and we have a game on Saturday. Getting something on the board from the Villa game is more important right now. They can start worrying about picking the manager from half 2 on Saturday afternoon.

I get what you're saying, but they can be done simultaneously...and only an idiot believes we'll be relegated. That was never on the cards.

Saw an interesting article breaking down all everton managers in moshiri's time and he was our third best. Very narrowly losing to Martinez and Ancelotti when it cane down to points per game.

Also had the lowest conceding rate. But also the worst scoring rate

Hes style of football is absolutely horrible, but it works to get points. He left knowing he did the job he was hired to do, I can’t complain to much about him, but under no circumstances would I want him back.

Koeman had experience and won loads as a player.

So did Joe Royle and Howard Kendall.

All these interviews!

Q: Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?
A: 4 1/2 years into the job I get after you lot sack me.

Tianjin Quanjian was also a success.

Im not sure how its possible to write off a person because they havent managed in Europe yet.

Hes got more experience than Zidane had before taking over Madrid...or Pirlo at Juventus. Xavi coached in the middle east.

No way to know how he would do.

Managing a peak Ronaldo made it pretty difficult for Zidane not to succeed. I'm not convinced he's actually that good as a tactician.

Koeman had experience and won loads as a player.

And we reduced him to looking like a homeless man in the end, he looked a broken man.

So did Joe Royle and Howard Kendall.

Kendall was very much inexperienced as a manager when we first appointed him.

People laughed when Arsenal got Wenger from Grampus Eight.

A: on a yacht that you bought me for by paying me 8 million despite not turning up for a single day

Pirlo was an absolute disaster at Juve and Xavi looks well out of his depth.

Sid Lowe spoke and others have stated that Zidane is a top tactician.

He was two years a manager!!!

Good to see we've moved on from great managers of the 00s to great players of the 00s

It was also 40 years ago.
