Welcome to Everton FC, Portuguese Prince.

 

[davids]

When he has us in a relegation battle next season at least we can blame it all on Allardyce leaving the club in a mess.

 

[Neiler]

He managed Watford and Hull.

If he'd managed Borussia Watford or Internazionale Hull he'd be getting rose petals thrown at his feet.

If we had gotten him directly from Sporting Lisbon there wouldn't be a dry pair of kecks in the house!

 

[4737carlin]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[riddick]

He managed Watford and Hull.

If he'd managed Borussia Watford or Internazionale Hull he'd be getting rose petals thrown at his feet.

And failed at both.

Great idea to get him to manage yet another bigger club with his OUTSTANDING CV of "Premier League experience"

 

[blue62]

I quite like him, has potential but the problems at Goodison run deep and I question whether he really has the experience to deal with the root and branch rebuild required. Characters like Rooney, Baines and Jags need managing even though they're in the twilight, unless of course they get binned off.

 

[Berenger]

Hopefully he’s been watching every game since November and knows exactly what he needs when he arrives.

 

[Neiler]

Every club is a stepping stone mate yeah, but you'd expect at least a year from someone surely, even in this sport?

I mean, imagine we have a good start and then someone starts sending overtures to him in October? Either we block him moving even though he wants to go (We can ask Watford what's likely to happen in that scenario) or we let him go and then have to scramble to find ANOTHER manager whilst the season is till ongoing, thus meaning even more instability and chaos

Unfortunately that's what we might have to deal with when it comes to him. I get that he's ambitious, but he's also a gamble because it honestly looks like a matter not of "if" but "when" he skips town, and it could be at any point during the season

But loyalty is a two way street mate, if he looses his first ten games he will get the bullet. Thats the game really.

Hull were relegated and he had a break clause, i think that is fair enough it probably suited both parties.

Watford he didn't leave, he was sacked. There is nothing he could do about that.

I know what your saying but realistically where will he go in the PL bigger then us? No where really. I dont really see him not being here for the duration of his contract unless he does poorly then we will be the protagonist.

 

[Efcjake]

Here you go mate.

What's he done recently?

How does his trophy haul compare against Fonseca and Emery?

 

[Carl O'Ancelotti]

saw enough in his 2 previous PL appointments to believe that he can actually get our lot going. who knows where it might lead. definitely worth a punt given that we are not going to attract a proven top manager without even EL football.

 

[Bungle]

He’s quite handsome you know
Does he invoke a stirring in your nether regions ? - He does not
Will you stay faithful to your masked lover? - Yes
Will you release the wanton slut that you know and fear lies deep inside you. - I shall free your mum when I decide she's ready
Will you bend down and offer yourself to Marco. - No
All will be revealed within the week

He's only ever won domestic trophies with PSG, which I think I'd back any of the others to do.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying he's not a good manager or that he's not the best of the three, simply that I don't think he's quite the superstar with guarantees of success that some people paint him as.

He's also built teams and spent time with them.

He got the PSG job, a huge job, on what he did with one of the smaller Spanish clubs (compared to Real, Barca, Valencia, Atleti).

To me, he'd be chomping to claim some respectability back.

 

[Barnfred 55]

This is going to set us back years.

Any potential newcomer after this bloke is sacked, which he will be before the end of the season, is going to view the whole situation as toxic.

Sympathise with you. I said the same thing when Allardyce joined us.

 

[Lelouch]

Why does that matter? You said "People who win cups >" I've shown you a manager who has won cups, You can't start moving the goalposts now.

The only plus for us would be that, I don't think anyone considered a career step would come in for him without him winning something at Everton. There are still too many questions about whether he is a top coach and can he deliver over the longer term. A good start with Everton would not be enough to have bigger (CL) clubs come calling for his services.
