New Everton Manager

[chippy1722]

I didn't say today was 90 minutes. I said today is running longer.

Nuno had 2 interviews and was believed to have been waiting for an offer, it never came, but they are still interested in him, they just never had as advanced talks as what they have had with Rafael, at the moment he is looking like plan b.

Rafael has had/having 5 interviews, which is very unusual, but can only be seen as very advanced discussions.

5 interviews, Fred West was interviewed less.

Yeah, not usual practice. But then Rafael wouldn't be a usual kind of signing for us.

 

[jazzy]

Just hurry up and put us out of our misery Everton.

The thing about this thread is that it brings out utter gems from some of our less regular posters.

Wish they would hurry up and pick somebody so we can all prepare ourselves for the miserable season ahead of us

My favourite post, ever

Why do you only post about Benitez?

And why are you so ashamed to answer the question?

“Us”

I wouldn't have thought of Benitez as a modern, progressive coach but that may simply be a combination of ageism and ignorance on my part.

There are several managers I'd appoint over him if they were available, but equally many I would not.

I wouldn't judge his time in China as a negative necessarily, it is a fantastic life experience and I don't think someone can be criticised for wanting to avail of it, when combined with the money on offer.

If he does get the job, I hope things settle down for us. I don't really care about his past or what he said. If he is fully committed to the task of managing Everton, then that's all I'd ask if him as I would of anyone else.

There is some argument to suggest that he could bring a particular level of detachment to us that others may not, and the freedom to do things that would bring, that would benefit us.

I understand the opposition, but it may be an inch thick as well as a mile wide.

There’s a really good reason for this

I see nothing from Rafael’s body of work over the past 10-15 years to suggest that he’s the man to shake things up or kick us on though.

I’m genuinely not arsed about the RS connections. He’s finished and looking for an easy job close to home.

Risk management,it's all about our Premier League status when the new stadium opens.

Personally I think the Raffa thing is a diversion to fetch Roberto back, so the fans would much rather have him than Raffa .....

Hopefully not, I would like to think our fans are not that easily fooled.

I think Martinez would be mad to come back here.

Picking the most divisive manager possible in world football with a recent relegation and a bottom of the league finish on his CV is an interesting approach to steadying the ship.

It's novel I will give Moshiri that.

Shame he's passed he could have done a job here.
