We need a manager!

How anyone thought that this wouldn’t end in tears is beyond me.
Everyone knew it would, but we also knew he would do the job we needed in the short term. No one can argue he hasn’t done what he was asked, keep us up in the short term.
 

The problem is we are not going to suddenly attract a better manager. For years we've been trading down and now we have almost zero decent players. Add on top by firing Dyche we are pushing ourselves 5 or so more million towards failing PSR next year and yet another points deduction leaves us in an unimaginable place.

If we can get a decent manager to replace him, great. However I think we are at the tipping point of being so toxic that we are going to struggle to get even the most shameless of journeyman managers that are clearly just in it for the cash.

I agree to a point and also disagree too.

Take Watford as an example, even more of a basket case than us, sometimes going through three managers a year.

There`s always a manager out there, who wants to get his foot in the door with a Premier League job.

Let`s face it, it`s really a no lose situation.

If he did well, he`d be lauded as a manager who did well at the mess that is Everton FC and enhance his chances of a better job, if he failed, so what, as the whole world knows what a mess we are and how many managers have failed before, which would hardly tarnish his CV and chances of another club.
 
Ive been reading about him and he does have an interesting background and seems to be achieving alot at Ipswich

He or Amorim for me.

I hope 777 or whoever the owners are have a £100mil transfer budget to saveguard their investment + want to change manage to bring in a different style.
If 777 or another group manage to take the club over, the cold hard reality is, we will need to bring in significantly more in sales than we spend on replacements. Before anybody starts trying to explain that it's over the length of the contract, we can spend and be ok for psr. That's all well and good, but, the reality of the situation is that we are saddled with overwhelming debt and new owners, especially 777, will have reducing the debt level and beginning to get the club on a more secure financial footing as their priority.

The financial situation is alarming and whoever comes in will have to tread very carefully in order to avoid administration, or worse.
 
The manager market is substantially better than when we hired Dyche, lots of good quality managers out of work...

Joachim Low
Hansi Flick
Antonio Conte
Julen Lopetegui
Jose Mourinho
Jorge Sampaoli

Others worth a mention...
Rudi Garcia
Steve Cooper
Graham Potter
Jesse Marsch
Andre Vilas-Boas
Lucien Favre
Ruud van Nistelrooy
Laurent Blanc
Jurgen Klinsmann
Urs Fischer

Teuchel leaves Bayern this summer...
Marcelo Gallardo, could we entice him from Saudi, signed a 1.5 year contract in Nov 23
Kieran McKenna, we could offer him a better chance of him staying in the PL than his newly promoted Ipswich team.
Arne Slot at Feyenoord, could we tempt him to the PL
Francesco Farioli is highly regarded, currently at Nice and already beat PSG at the Parc de Prince
Thiago Motta, currently has Bologna 4th in Serie A, a manager on his way up in the game.
Jagoba Arrasate of Osasuna, currently 9th
Miguel Ángel Sánchez Muñoz, known as Michel of Girona, doing wonders at Girona. Does he want to be in the PL at some stage? We could offer that introduction.
Andoni Iraola, showed us what a competent manager can do. We can give him a bigger club with a potentially a higher ceiling.

I know some of these are fanciful, but if you don`t ask you don`t get, right. If you always go for the crap nobody else wants then you are going to get the likes of the 3 we`ve just had and the type od seasons we have had. Nobody wanted them for a very good reason....

“ Hello Mr Conte, would you be interested in the Everton job ? “

“ How much will I have for transfers ? “

“ Well we were kind of hoping you’d use your own money “

The phone goes dead.
 
Imagine looking at our horrific situation, no money, financial penalties, crap squad, angry fans, awol owner, crap potential buyer and thinking - get Low, Conte, Lopetigu, Mourinho would be gagging for a bit of that
