David Unsworth - Temporary Manager

Absolutely cringe isn't it mate. He could be our next permanent boss and it's salt of the earth 'Unsy'.

1) Sentimentalism when we need professionalism.
2) Simple solution; stop this tripe, appoint him full time, put him under the same focus as everyone else, and hold him to the mantra he quite correctly used in the press conference - we need a winning manager.
Sunday is utterly massive.

1) why can't we have both, at the right place and the right time. I was taught 'on parade' and 'off parade' - in the bar it was whatya havin Dave or whatever. Work time it was - Yes Boss.

2) This all day long.
 

He’s one of us.....he’s a blue thru and thru, we’re born not manufactured, blah blah blah.

He’s one thing for sure.....too inexperienced to get us out of this hole
Urm that is the dutch clowns team he is stuck with - give him a chance look if we had won last night - I would have not been on here saying the tide has turned etc etc as the next game is far more important we have never won that league cup under its many names with our greatest teams that won trophies!
also look at the teams still left in it on our current form we need to concentrate on moving up the premiership!

If he doesn't get the chance we'll never know, we've had the 'experienced big name' Tell you what, vault me.
I hoped with the early Moyes, didn't know either way with Martinez, Thought Koeman might - you never can tell.
Unsworth...given a decent chance - Can.

Nice to hear Unsy shouting encouragement all the time - 2nd half we started with our usual passing it across the back line tippy tappy stuff , and Unsy shouted "Faster move it up this is too slow" Our 2nd half performance worried Chelsea they fetched first teamers on after too close good efforts on goal - again our undoing was conceding from TWO corners - give him time - My hero big Joe was there observing I am sure things will get better!
Why were McCarthy, Mirallas, Lennon, Williams selected? We lost a match that was there for the taking. A full Chelsea side would have murdered us. Losing or drawing on Sunday will be totally unnacceptable IMO....

It was almost a full chelsea side near the end - we played players in a weakened team too - Unsy quite rightly is prioritering the prem - next game!
 
If he gets it, he’s got to bin the shell suit
Nah just get a big sponsor... going from track suit to Armani is the first step towards distancing your self and going up your own clacker.
Wear a suit for official functions yeah...On the grass of Finch Farm or Goodison, it's the tracky. It's all part of the 'on parade' / 'off parade' thing I mentioned earlier, time and place.
 

I think people have seen an utterly un-engaged manager failing badly and are hoping an engaged 'evertonian will' sort his

it may help, but it goes a bit deeper i think
 
I agree with those who say that appointing Unsworth would be a bit small time for everton- he may be fantastic in the future but if we see ourselves as a big club we need to bring in big proven managers. The whole idea of unsworth and a team full of everton under 23s is very romantic and clearly appealing to many here, but in reality will just make us a bang average /bottom half premier team.


Perfect opportunity for Unsworth to be fair. He knows the talent we have in the U23s which we will need to get through to the January window. He knows how to set up and motivate a team. I know its a loss to a weakened Chelsea side, but that's the best we've looked all season.
 
Regardless of what Chelsea put out, that was - apart from City away or Sours away - the worst match to start out with.

If we get 4 from 6 against Leicester and Watford he should be given more time.

Depends mate really, Lyon game for me is an important one as well, win that the competition is wide open again for us, and it matters how we play as well in all 3.

Said before though, would prefer Tuchel myself, he's proven, he's good and he produces teams that are exciting to watch as well, Unsworths long term future would be done no harm at all learning under him for 3 or so years.

At the end of the day any new manager is stuck with this squad - its a hard job for anyone imo!

I've said Tuchel for a while now too. Short of him, though, I wouldn't be rushing to appoint any of the other names mentioned.

I honestly think we need a caretaker period where a man who is guaranteed the commitment of these players is allowed to rescue us.

We've seen how this squad can shrink from the challenge over the last few seasons when they dont like the atmosphere about the club. My worry is that a new face in authority they dont like will get less than 100% commitment. I genuinely think with the wrong move we could flirt with catastrophic danger this season.
