OFF THE BALL SUMMARY
Pereira style of play: Philosophy - Porto has lots of possession to control. In all games outpossessed opps.. (65% except v Benfica (50).. compared to Barca, not allowing opps to breathe.
Would it be good fit? Hard to tell..firstly success with
Moyes with stable - coaches in Portugal don't do signings.. not sure how he would be with transfers but coach is really good, methodic, lots of work..
Is it right to move - or one year too soon - now is best time - contract is over.. Porto gave no signs of wishing to keep him, bit unfair, until Benfica wasted their lead VP was almost dead man walking - so things may have changed but he would be stronger if he leaves now - if he stays if things don't go so well then image won't be so good at Porto...
Does he have character to survive here? Everton won't be job with more pressure than Porto (7 league wins in 8 years). I think Everton no need to win - 5th or 4th is great - I don't think they have 3 papers questioning his moves every day. He is a Porto fan but lived this with too much passion...
