Your advice to the next manager of Everton

[Gladystweet]

Make sure you negotiate a multi-million pound severance package.....

 

[GlosBlue]

Do better than the last six fellas

*Fixed

Alright folks, this is your opportunity. Let's assume, for argument's sake, that David Unsworth and the next manager of Everton have nothing better to do than to read every comment in this thread. What would your message to them be ? What should be their priorities ? What are the main problems that need fixing in the team, and what can be done, right now, to start turning things around and getting results ? What should be their aims in the January window ? What should they be looking to achieve with Everton football club ?

Make it good, people. Together we can fix this.

Play with wingers
Have 8 or 9 regular starters
Don't play Klaassen or Sandro until we get some form back and we're winning comfortably.
Drop Sigurdsson if his form doesn't improve
Prioritise bringing in a striker (or 2) and left back in January
Have a different mentality in the Anfield Derby to the one we've had since 1999
Don't let anyone wear the shirt who think's that a game against a more talented side on paper should be an 'expected loss'
Try and win the FA Cup and finish in the top 7

Seriously....get the fans onside ASAP and use us to your advantage. The club in many ways is unrecognisable since its former glories but the fans lining the rickety iron terraces are the one remaining link. These people can make or break players and managers depending on your ability to grasp what Everton means.

Realise on day one that Everton are not just another Premier League football club, but the conscience and heartbeat of at least one half of a brooding, moody, decent, hardworking, honest city.

Embrace our illustrious history. Make every day at the office part of a vision to recapture that spirit, and write yourself into history alongside those greats.

Even if you fail, you'll have won plenty of friends.

Take everyone out for a pint, tell them to forget what’s happened and just enjoy playing. Pick the same team twice......

Buy a BLUE Christmas tree , sing 'Grand Old Team' and 'Banks of the Royal Blue Mersey ' every press conference and shed real tears if we don't win game.
Do all this my son, and you could get relegated to the conference and still be forgiven because you will have proved you have 'got' us.

 

[Llyrap]

Don’t go on holiday when your Supposed to be signing players or signing for us.

Don’t be an arrogant so and so unless you produce the goods.

Use the next 7 months to prepare for next season - this ones gone.

 

[Moomin]

Win us a trophy.

 

[Aberblue]

Avoid the words "phenomenal" or "but ok"

and "disappointing".

 

[davek]

Remember that you are nothing and the club is everything.

 

[Yorkie89]

You can have what money you think you need to get us a top striker and left sided defender then abuse our way up the league with hammering after hammering like city are giving every team they play right now

 

[Yorkie89]

You are free to take the mick out of Koeman as long as we are winning games

 

[tim cahill]

Buy someone who can score boss headers.

 

[Lob]

Don't start sentences with the word 'Ok', Use the word 'Us' instead of Everton, Show some passion on the touchline and towards the club and fans and have a plan and formation. Oh and dont take away Niasses locker.
