Manini Posted 17 January 2022 Share Posted 17 January 2022 Imagine supporting a football club whose owners have that much disdain for the fan base. What a joke that is from the Everton board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobyfox Posted 17 January 2022 Share Posted 17 January 2022 The thing is every Everton manager will be considered as rubbish by their fans. There has got to be some recognition that there is something structurally wrong with the club and rebuild from scratch. At the moment they're just behaving, without the same pulling power, like a shitter version of Manchester United. Hounding out every manager for not achieving what the previous bloke couldn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everton would have 100% signed him He finished in the bottom-half twice with an Everton team that had Lukaku, Coleman, Barkley, Baines, Jagielka, Barry, Stones etc. His first season he piggybacked off Moyes's foundations and as soon as he started putting his stamp on the club it started to unravel. He also came out with some ridiculous statements like 'performances are more important than points' and that winning by set pieces is 'parasite football'.

filbertway Posted 17 January 2022 Share Posted 17 January 2022 Everton let's keep signing lots of different managers with different footballing philosophies and allow them to sign different players that fit those philosophies. Atrociously ran club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three if they really want to push the boat. I can see some clubs refusing though. Like I say above, Burnley vs Watford could be played on an FA Cup matchday no problem. Ours has to be in the winter break or they are relying on us getting knocked out in the FA Cup or Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if we go down that line no game should have been called off to ensure no such issues or suspicious crop up . When you play Leicester for example both will have key players back I guess ? We can all say this and that situation has changed . Teams probably have played the game so to speak and been allowed to. The rules should have been tighter m. Anyway you’ll still beat us as usual !

Is he an elite manager, no. Are everton an elite club... also no. I think he would come in, do a steady job... possibly have a really strong burst at first. But people are on here talking like theyre bringing in steve bruce or gary megson. He's managed to get the best out of lukaku... something Jose and Tuchel havent managed. Theres an awful lot that goes into international tournaments... way more psychological than regular league football. I dont think theres ever a guarentee for being a success no matter how talented your team is. Especially when your back line were held together by 2 players from the biggest bottlers in football. If you rank their golden generation man for man against ... Spain, France, Brazil, Germany, Portugal, even england lately... They still have genuine issue areas others dont. Im not here saying he should be our manager or anything like it, its just a huge over reaction on how he's done imo. Golden generation with Denayer, benteke, praet, castagne, batshuayi , chadli, boyatta, januzaj Hardly golden is it Edited 17 January 2022 by Lambert09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
