I’d sooner have someone try and fail than someone not try at all - I don’t think anyone can knock the guys commitment.
I’ve seen countless reminders on here that he’s “clueless”, that may be true and might be why he’s put his trust in other “experts” who’ve let him down - not sure with the scale of failure all can be attributed to him.
He's an easy Iranian scapegoat when the truth is Walsh, Brands and Kenwrong have all let him down and been equally as culpable in the current mess we are in (and previous managers and lets not forget these coward players).
Not saying he hasn't made mistakes or doesn't deserve flack in the appointments of those individuals but he takes an equal share of the blame for me whereas a vocal somewhat unhinged minority of our fans act as if he has made every single decision and signed every player himself in which no one else is to blame when he hasn't - he's spent most of his time in Monaco.
In hindsight he has been trigger happy with sacking managers but our fans were wanting said managers sacked at the times of their departures. He'll no doubt be blamed if Lampard doesnt work out despite 90% of Evertonians wanting Lampard to have been given the job out of who was available in January.
The abuse he takes I wouldn't blame him for pulling his dough out and letting us implode financially as thats what would happen if he decided to put away his chequebook.
Hopefully his faith in this new DOF pays off and he can sort out the recruitment as thats been the main issue at the club going back as far as Martinez's 2nd season.
We had a decent summer in Silva's 1st season iirc but even then in hindsight only Richarlison and Digne were permanent deals that have proven a success.
