I thought the job was tough enough. Arguably his best player has just gone now.

I really dont know. I'm half expecting a car crash season. But even if that happens is the bigger picture giving him time to plant seeds. Everything and i mean everything looks like it needs tearing up and starting again. The youth team. The scouting. The whole structure.
Potter was the man to start that but i dont think he was interested even if an approach was being thought of.

Its more hope with Lampard if i'm honest. His team around him look quite decent. But anything you hope they are building correctly wont happen even next season.
Tough one coming up. Everyone needs to be on board.

Can you imagine where we'd be today if Lampard hadn't have figured out what to do with a handful of games left and the club brought in a caretaker to get the job done and we'd survived that way?

We'd now be in a summer where our best players are getting sold off to correct the mistakes of the owner and his pathetic Directors of Football AND we'd be scouting around for a new manager - the list of which would be truly hair raising.

But we have a manager who's been through the worst with us and come out the other end with confidence and the players have 100% belief in him. We should hope he doesn't rumble this club's owners very early and choose to leave while his stock is high.

What I said was "if he doesn't get the win against United he should be sacked and a final roll of the dice made".

He did get the win though and we survived because finally he began to play the way we should...though even after that game he couldn't help reverting to gung-ho football for spells in games and we lost points away to West Ham and Burnley because of it.

Everton dont/didnt play "gung-ho" football. Its a myth. The reality is our midfield cant boss any game whatsoever. So when we try to play, what would be classed as just normal play by many other sides, we get exposed. We're not being exposed because we are charging forward recklessly. We have one way to play through necessity. Sit deep. Scrap. And hope for the best.
