    Homepage Article Rafael Benitez Appointed Everton Manager

    The only bit of positivity I am holding onto is the fact that he clearly will tell it as it is. And a lot of that squad need that. Seems our last manager was a bit too fluffy. Expect some to get a shock and James to be looking for the exit button ASAP. Stomach is still churning though.

    Totally agree but the noise is becoming near deafening now. Seems inevitable I’m afraid.

    New Everton Manager

    Have to say if after this long drawn out affair they then appoint Rafael it will be a massive PR blunder. With a huge amount of the fan base against Rafael and allowing them to vent their opposition to it but still appoint him, will feel very much like the club (owner) alienating the fans. Could be...

    This is either the best game of smoke and mirrors by the board or else the worst managerial appointment by Everton since Mike Walker. If Rafael is appointed he’ll be gone by Christmas. Nothing surer.

    Welcome Nuno

    Good luck to him. He’ll need every bit of it. Worrying we now can’t attract a Galthier or a Ten Hag…. The football club is already a v different picture to what it was a few months ago.

    It’s not going to be Howe, Moyes, Potter, Lampard, Martinez etc. Sleep easy. The club has moved on from those days.

    Spot on mate.....it’s always made to sound like we are chasing the manager. Brands phone has probably being ringing non stop from agents. Everton had one of the highest earning managers in the world. The opportunity is there but as we all know it just needs the right fit.

    Simeone must be delighted....his rivals are two failed Everton managers.

    New Everton Manager

    I would have liked us to try and get Ten Hag. Seems to have the right attributes and is all about developing young players. It would be a long term approach. Feels like we are throwing money at a problem that won’t go away. Mosh feels like a gambler chasing his losses!

    Davide Ancelotti

    Always thought Carlo was setting up Davide to go into full time management via Everton. If Carlo had any success he’d throw the “I’m retiring now” line but Davide has always been doing the work with me blah blah blah. Everton was the perfect vehicle for this until he realised it is a s*** show.

    New Everton Manager

    There are lots of short memories on this forum. Anyone calling for Martinez needs to give their head a wobble. Defence was non existent and the only reason the 1st season was a success was because the team had already been well set up defensively under Moyes. Never go back. We did with HK and...

    2020/21 Carlo Ancelotti

    I think the fact that many on here and elsewhere are not pushed about this reiterates the fact that Carlo fell well short of his target last season. Yes we are hurt that he’s done one and left us starting again but did we really lose a manager on top of his game? 10th says no to me.
