New Everton Manager

[LocalNative]

Yes but the level of PRESSURE is so different there in Watford or Wolves. It's Everton, it can be toxic, the expectations are so high. We want some sort of success asap, preferably a trophy. Not sure Nuno can take it. Wolves fans expected nothing from him.

No manager coming in will be able to handle those expectations. We've just had Carlo Ancelotti here for 18 months and he didn't get any closer than the previous managers. We need to be patient with the next manager but there's zero chance of that happening.

That's the one they're using to negotiate with Eddie Howe should all else fail I've heard.

Don't think it was the pressure with Carlo. He just didn't care and used us a stepping stone. For Marco or Nuno Everton is a dream job.

Lampard himself said his players didn’t deal with the emotion from Everton. A more experienced manager would of got his team to handle it better

In what way could they of handled it better? Teams get beat. They were beaten. No point in saying well if this manager was in charge the result would of been different because you dont know that.

I'll remember that though next time we get beat Norwich next season. It doesnt count because we never had pep in charge because if we did that result would of been different

So just Big Oils last 24 hours then?

Exactly...we must follow the model that has brought Brentford massive success.

Carlo rehabilitated himself to some degree here after being sacked at Napoli although he was hardly an unqualified success. He did allude to expectations with his comment about not being a magician though.

Everton is a dream job for a lot of candidates but we need the right person to take us forward. Hunger will take you so far but you also need to ally that with the skills to get results on the pitch.

If we can't get a proven successful 'foreign' manager, then I would be happy to support the appointment of Mr Ferguson.

He has demonstrated his passion and the drive for our club. Carlo Ancelotti didn't hesitate to abandon us: me thinks that Duncan, sorry Mr Ferguson, would never do that. Indeed he could get a further tattoo: Premier League Champions 2022/3.

Might not be the front runner but there is a lot to like about Lampard:
1. Seems a no nonsense manager.
2. Already learned his trade in the lower leagues.
3. Young, hungry with a point to prove.
4. One of the best midfielders in the world when he played and teach that expertise
5. Played under some really good managers in his time.
6. Free agent.
And he hates Klopp so he will fit right in here, I would support his appointment 100%.

After just catching up with this thread the worrying thing is the Graham Potter and xG shouts, the last 20 pages has broke me.

Nuno has delt with expectations at Valencia and Porto

Christ the Valencia fans are brutal. Not sure there is a more difficult club to manage in Europe.

…it’s fine to ‘like the youth’ but they have to be good enough to play.

The youth policy is a big plus. An area we've been lacking in in a while.

We're handicapped with money at the moment due to previous poor financial dealings and the new stadium meaning we're treading close to FFP. It's also reported we got minimal compensation, if any, from Real Madrid as there was a clause in Ancelotti's contract.

Conte has fallen out with the owners of his last few clubs too and is an unrealistic target. Nuno has had Wolves in Europe and finished higher than us in 2/3 seasons.

The stadium actually went into its own separate company/accounts when we got planning permission for it, so it won't have any bearing whatsoever on ffp now.

Also the athletic did a article stating that the fee for ancelotti was alot higher then it was being reported.

Although I am with you on the conte thing. We need someone to build a team conte doesn't do that, he takes good teams and wins things with them then goes mental and walks out.

Don't get me wrong though I'd love conte here and would be behind him 100% but I wouldn't be surprised when he walks out of the club in 2 years when he asks for mbappe and gets told there's no chance.

I think managers have a shelf life just as players do and Carlo probably believed that his time at managing super clubs had come and gone.

Everton is a project and he was reconciled to that. He felt that he would develop the team over a period of years and was prepared for that

I don't think he was prepared for how difficult it is to manage a Premiership club that does not have a large squad of very talented players and at times just as the players struggled so did the manager.
Listening to Carlo during the season there is no doubt he felt he would get the club into Europe but he failed to do so and failed to get the best from some players.

The totally unexpected job at Madrid came up and he ran and took it before they could change their minds.

It says something about where Madrid are as well going back for a manager they previously sacked and it isn't as if he was a young manager learning his trade They have appointed and elderly manager who maybe was making his way down in terms of the size of the jobs being offered to him.
This is not a reflection on Everton just a fact.

He still could have done a good job at Everton and we will see this summer the size of budget that would have been available to him.

The job is too much of a challenge for someone like Conte. Not that he couldn’t do it, just why would he? He’s gone past the stage in his career where he wants to take on a project like this one. He’s won multiple titles and probably now sees the next step as winning things in Europe.

I suppose we could use a stereotypical Italian phrase and make him and offer he can’t refuse, but it would have to be some offer.
