New Everton Manager

[Nymzee]

Howe's run with Bournemouth from League One to EPL mainstay was impressive, no saying otherwise. Problem was the flame out after Bournemouth spent serious cash (for them) to support him.

They were rich to get promoted.

Club has been silent hope we hear something soon need this done. Still need to add players to thr squad

 

[kiss the crest]

How many players do you think will say this is a fresh start when the new guy comes in?

Christ pass me the bleach

I remember when we all thought it can't be Silva because it would have been done earlier as Marco had been sacked by Watford, we managed to drag it out a lot longer with the hope that it might be Fonseca only for Marco Silva to get it, in other words it's definitely going to be Nuno

Silva’s was a totally different situation altogether. It was clear that he was who moshiri wanted. It took time due to all the legalities and the daft Watford chairman

Agree partly because I have no control over what happens, and lack of confidence in the owner. I support Everton F.C., not any individual manager or player, as I will still be there after they leave. However, I would struggle to support Gerrard or Benitez, Having seen the second and third versions of Kendall's Everton I feel that rehiring a former manager is a bad move. I find Nuno uninspiring, but could get behind Ferguson, although he would need a good assistant ( the suggestion of Carsley does appeal), but will accept whoever is Brands decision, as he has to work with him. If Moshiri goes against Brands advice, he surely has to walk.

How about we go all out on Carsley and have Dunc as his assistant... ?

He certainly has a better knowledge of the game, management and must know the youth system impeccably...

Didn't even know he was Man City U-18s manager 4 years ago!

A well run club would have a shortlist of potential future coaches and managers they keep even when they have a manager in post.....

They might well do but still the market changes. You can't legislate that Spurs, Wolves, Juventus, Madrid, Inter, Munich, Celtic, Roma and quite possibly PSG are all or have been looking for a new coach at roughly the same time .

I would rather they took their time and get the right one.

Not saying I want Howe but just wondered what the serious hatred towards him is about?

Mines his post match interviews. What a dreary guy!

Why not Steven Gerrard

In an ideal world we would get Pochettino but he turned us down before Ancelotti apparently and there’s nothing to suggest he would pick us before Spurs even if he becomes available. You do wonder why he keeps failing to win trophies, even a one horse race in France.

Conte is obviously the big name available. This certainly wouldn’t be a bad appointment but he would only worth hiring if he agreed to work with players chosen by Brands on top of Rom if we could entice him back. What Carlo has shown us is that there is no loyalty whatsoever in football so we cannot buy another load of footballers only coming to us because of a manager who will be gone within 2 years.

Galtier seems like an interesting appointment who has done a fantastic job at Lille despite his best players being sold and is certainly somebody I could get on board with. He would be willing to work with and develop young, hungry, ambitious and quick players in the Godfrey mould that we need to be targeting going forward

Please stop with the Potter shouts. The man has done absolutely nothing to suggest he can take a club like ours to the next level. It is such a small minded appointment which would show the mediocrity of the club that we have just gotten away from with the Ancelotti appointment. The lowered expectations of the Kenwright era has affected you all. A lot of you actually wanted Big Sam! You will be the same ones moaning in 2 years time of a lack of ambition when we finish mid table again

More than anything think about the optics. What does it say to potential players going from Ancelotti to Potter. Does that sound like a club on the way up. Ancelloti to Gerrard doesn’t seem as bad. His name alone will attract players especially younger players who probably idolised him growing up

However the worst choice we could make is Moyes. Even Big Sam would be better than Davey as we know Sam would be gone in 12 months. As I said when it looked like Moyes would come back before we appointment Carlo, Moyes is a good enough manager to earn a new contract but he won’t win you anything which is what we all want. He has done exactly that at West Ham. Appointing him would be another 5 years wasted. Moyes was the right coach at the right time when he was appointed but he outstayed his welcome. I’ll never forgive him for how he blew the semi final against Liverpool. Even at one up it was clear in that first half that things were going wrong and he did absolutely nothing to change it. Who wants to go back to the plucky underdog narrative that Moyes did his best to harvest as it made him look better and excused his lack of fight against the big clubs, sitting back, inviting pressure, waiting to concede

So on to Gerrard. Despite how much most of us hate him there is no doubt he is a winner. Does anyone think he’ll stand for Sigurdsson or Gomes strolling around in midfield with the ball getting passed round them. He’s a local lad who was around in the 80s so knows what it means to see Everton as a winner. He’ll certainly have us fired up in the Derby. Despite his loyalties he does seem the type to want to lose at anything. Let’s not forget he was happy to leave Liverpool twice for Chelsea before he got threats (allegedly)

At least get him in for an interview. What’s the worst that can happen. One meeting will tell you if he’s up for the fight. Failing that the meeting will give you a useful insight into a potential manager of our arch rivals and it’ll unite the fan base behind anyone that it eventually chosen if we don’t appoint him!

He has just won a trophy which is what we want. Yes it was Scotland and you can say it’s a two horse race but it hasn’t been a two horse race up there in 10 years. Going undefeated and only conceding 4 goals at home all season (if I read that correctly) is unbelievable especially in a COVID no fan year. It’s clear we need to sort out our home form

Moving to Everton is a step up in players he is managing so there is no issue with a big manager like Ancelotti or Conte suddenly having to deal with lesser players. He will be happy working with and developing the young, hungry players that Brands has to bring in.

Are we a stepping stone to Liverpool, yes probably. However it’s not going to be like Barmby who left us out of the blue. Both sides know it’s a marriage of convenience. He needs to win a trophy/ get into the Champions League to persuade Liverpool to hire him and we are desperate for either. It’s a win-win. Most managers are going to leave after a couple of years and any player or manager who joins us should be looking to go from us to a massive club. It’s just where we are at present

So onto the biggest issue, the fact that he’s a Liverpool legend. We all love Beardsley, Watson, Sheedy and Ablett. I agree it’s probably not the same. Let me try it another way. If Klopp fell out with FSG tomorrow but wanted to stay in the area and would take the job if Moshiri was willing to make him the highest paid manager in the world, how many of us would take him as manager. Most of us would if we’re honest. He too is a Liverpool legend

I would be genuinely be interested to see how many of you would have him

How about a Potter-Gerrard dual management team? Like Steve Gritt and Alan Curbishley at Charlton many moons ago. That worked well.

They'd be dynamite together. Potter could look to take over solo after gaining confidence working with the more experienced and proven winner Gerrard.

They would also have an army of Dixie Dean's cloned and in stasis ready to be unleashed in our greatest time of need.

Moshiri and Brands OUT!

Weird selection of players to pick there

We also botched the process after Koeman was fired. We allowed Unsworth to take charge for too long a period and we struggled and by the time gravy features came in arguably that West Ham win had already confirmed our safety.

 

[Tubey]

There's been somewhat aggressive marketing in the media for Ferguson, I assume driven by Kenwright. As in the obviously false Real Madrid story and the Carsley one.

 

[jamieni]

Maybe mate!

If someone in talks with Palace isn’t interested in Everton after hearing our transfer budget then we may as well all mainline domestos now....
