He’s Martinez without the trophy.
I'm going to be as candid as I can be.
All things considered, I think Allardyce has done a very good job since coming in. Whilst I understand that a week is a long time in football, I don't think we should forget just how dire things had gotten before he came in. I take no pride in the batterings we've got under him, but I will state that we look far better at the back than we did in mid-November.
Williams looks to have dropped a couple pounds, and looks to be enjoying his football again.
As for team selection, I get the frustrations too. Fact of the matter is that the management obviously see Baines as being more than sufficient for left back, and buying a 'mend it' replacement in January wasn't something that the board wanted to do. Until then, I don't think we can play an out and out left winger due to Vlasic/Lookman/Bolasie's inability to cover defensively.
And now for the controversial bit. I think a lot of the hatred for Allardyce boils down to the fact that he's a northerner who speaks like a northerner. As someone who has both a strong accent and mannerism, I get what it's like to be judged on the way that they speak.
He's no idiot, rarely do I see any of his ex-players bemoan him or his style.
Do I see him as the defacto long term manager of the club? No.
Do I see him as a manager from which we can build a solid platform from going forward? Yes.

But he's from the West Midlands and definitely retains a hint of Dudley accent? Actually that probably makes him more of a hate figure.

To even think about going for Silva would be bizarre altogether, i could understand towards the end of the Koeman period, when we were desperate for a quick change and the flavor of the month was an easy option, but if we go for him now we really have to worry about the vision we have for the future, this alone will reflect how short sighted we are

He's a good manager. The Watford collapse was defo due to the Everton enquiry.

Tbh he’s ruined it for himself by shooting his mouth off. All he had to do was stay humble and people would have quietly respected his decent home run to move us away from trouble. Instead as soon as he had a few wins under his belt it was all about what he’d done, couldn’t understand why 15 of us on the internet were criticising him, why we weren’t good enough to even have a go v Liverpool, why we shouldn’t expect anything v Arsenal, why we’re still in a relegation battle, how he knows best over Lookman etc.
Ultimately he’s another manager who can’t comprehend a world where Everton are higher than 7th therefore he won’t push us further. When he had go get big away wins for survival at Sunderland or Palace he was capable but because he didn’t have to at Everton he just threw the games arrogantly thinking that Everton fans shouldn’t expect wins at those grounds.
Moyes did it, Koeman did it, and Allardyce is now doing it. It’s infuriating and I’m fed up being told by Everton managers before a ball has even been kicked why we can’t compete when other teams in this league win at these grounds all the time.

How is he a good manager? Based on what? Winning 8 games at Watford? That the best we can do?
We need someone we know is a good manager, not another punt, this will be the 4th manager since Moyes, and the other 3 have all been terrible, we need to stop messing about and actually think about this long term, if we go for someone bang average and have the sack him after a year our brand is going to be so damaged we will find it even harder to get a good manager

Yeah and taken one side down and been sacked by another, ask yourself this would any other top 7 side want him?
Winning stuff in those leagues isnt a major deal, besides have a look at how much Koeman won as a manager, impressive list pehaps but it dosent always tell the big picture as we found out
