Spend loads, probably get in FFP trouble, sack the bloke that’s assembled an expensive squad, rinse and repeat. Recently I’ve really grown to dislike them, them going down would be stupendous 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 17 December 2019 Share Posted 17 December 2019 Everton have the nucleus of a half decent team, he'll do well initially. If they get another centre half and either get a few CM's back or sign another then they're not out the realms of a top 6 charge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems like another moronic decision by a big football club, taking gambles they didn't really need to make. He's another one in this odd current trend as Matt alluded to the other day about people knowing a club's DNA or whatever it is. And that clearly ignores the point that the current Arsenal caretaker manager spent far longer and was far more successful at that club than Arteta and he's not made a huge difference. I suppose the attraction is the mystery of what he's like- we've nothing to judge it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is ex arsenal, and worked under a world class manager, to be fair I think its worth a punt, Jose started as a translator for a world class manager e.g. Also I expect he wouldn't have as much demands for wages and transfer budget as an established name. Which for the Arsenal board is probably their preference. Edited 18 December 2019 by Chrysalis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UniFox21 Posted 18 December 2019 Share Posted 18 December 2019 Ancelotti going to Everton makes so much sense on his behalf. He becomes 3rd highest paid manager on a 4 year deal. Lets say he lasts 18months, he has a huge pay out and can blame the situation or hierachy if things go badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say Everton to me and I just think of another club throwing endless amounts of cash into the woodchipper. And to think I believed money equals knowledge.

UniFox21 Posted 18 December 2019 Share Posted 18 December 2019 Levy coming out and commenting on other teams spending compared to their own and saying "it doesn't scare them" is frankly laughable.

The Bear Posted 19 December 2019 Share Posted 19 December 2019 Then it's a bollocks article. They haven't spent nearly enough to get in any real trouble, the TV money makes sure of that.

I think he’ll do wonders for them next season. They could even win the league, think they’ll be close, but the bigger teams might just nick the top 2 spots, but if everyone performs well at the pointy end of the season, no one in the world would want to go Goodison Park in the 2nd leg of a play off semi final. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nalis Posted 20 December 2019 Share Posted 20 December 2019 There are teams I would normally like to see doing well like Newcastle, Sunderland and to a lesser extent the likes of Everton but since we were pretty decent at the minute, I hope of the bigger teams / sleeping giants are remain as shi te as possible as long as we're up there.
