IF it happens I do feel sure now that we will only appoint a top class manager... the days of Bobby bullshit are over.

Eddie Howe a top class manager? Hmmm. That's the rumour anyway. Bit of a comedown from Ancelloti. The RS will be merciless with us I'm not sure he'd get much of a tune from our shit squad either. Still, he'd probably be able to convince Josh King to sign a five year deal, so that's exciting.....

....hold on, scratch Howe, new rumour is Nuno. He has a beard, that's good enough for me.

Hodgson's available.

Err, so's Rafa. That would be larks.

Gerrard's name is being thrown up too. Literally.

I think we need to start by analysing what type of manager we want. I think they fall into the following categories:

The Super-Manager. Those who have never worked at a club with less than a billion to spend per transfer window, win things, and are described as elite managers. We've been here with Ancelotti, not sure I want to go down that road again.

The English Safe Pair Of Hands. Pardew, Bruce, Hodgson etc. Cheap, but with an obvious risk of relegation and mass protests outside the Goodison Supper Bar. Often inadvertantly amusing in post-match interviews. We've been here with Allardyce.

The Former Player. "He gets us, he's a legend, he can't fail." Ole, Lamps etc. Ferguson is in pole position if we go down this route. We've been here before with big Joe Royle, who was alright until he walked out on us. And Kendall, but he only won the league twice, the wanker.

The Lower League Next Big Thing. Rarely does a big club go down this route. Chris Wilder really should have fucked off from Sheffield United and got himself a big payday before their inevitable Second Album Syndrome kicked in, along with a predictable relegation. He's shot himself in the foot there. Anyway we've been here before with Kendall and he was an absolute disaster.

The Mad German. There are fucking millions of these, all of them clearly psychopathic serial killers who are using football management as a front to cover their tracks. With the exception of Tuchel, and Klopp when he has VVD available, none of them can coach defenders but they have some lovely 3-1-2-4 Uber-Gegenpress mit Multi-Tor concepts to sell you. We haven't been here before but it will be fun, even when City dick us 9-0 because we're playing 5 up front.

The Fancy Southern European Name. Pepe Mel? Well he isn't Pardew is he? Give him a go, what's the worst that can happen? Rayo Vallecano fans speak highly of him, they can't all be wrong can they? Been here before with Marco Silva.

So, Mad German it is. We've tried all the others. Unless there are any other categories I've forgotten about?

I mean, we haven't got a bad record with former players ah wait now, Colin Harvey. Fuck. Billy Bingham. Shite. OK, Claus Gegenpresser it is then.

Excellent summary, thanks. Yeah, I agree, i want the German psycho. Spanish managers are so last decade, and the fashion for Portuguese managers has surely run its course now. You can't go wrong with a swivel-eyed Teutonic mouth-frother at the moment, it seems. Herman Sausagesukher is available, after a sensational first season at Bollocks Berlin, the runaway winners of the German third division. Go get him Moshi.

Yeah I saw a Bollocks Berlin game earlier this year against Einsturzende Neubaten on BT Sport. Great game, finished 5-all. Bollocks used a revolutionary 1-0-9 formation and their entire defensive philosophy was for the sole defender to shout "MISS!" just as the striker was about to shoot. It worked pretty well and I can see that translating over to the English game without any issues, partly because MISS is an English word.

Hassenhuttl is the one to watch, incidentally. When they find Klopp's first victims I think we'll all be saying "well, yeah, there was always something about him, I'm not that surprised." Tuchel will probably murder one of his own players live on TV if he misses a penalty, that's only a matter of time, so he'll be easy to spot. And UEFA will doubtless hit him hard with a 3-game touchline ban.

Hassenhuttl? That will be "I'm really surprised, he seemed like a nice guy, introvert, kept himself to himself really. But never would have predicted he'd be capable of something like that." Also he's Austrian and that's where Josef Fritzl was from, so, case closed m'lud.

Joachim Low? I doubt they'd even release the autopsy reports. (shudder)

Anyway it's gonna be Rafa. I'm calling it now. And I would be quite happy with that.

Yankthattoffee Tue 01 Jun 2021, 8:39 pm

Nuno Espirito Santo.
I like this guy.
My bet is Nuno.
Goes well with the Blue Trinity, St. Domingos and St Luke's in the corner.
Spirit of the Blues to be rewritten for him.

Hmm, not sure. I just thought there were shades of Bobby's less than phenomenal last season at Everton about Wolves this year. They lost Jiminez and he couldn't fix it, and they drifted through the season looking a bit rudderless.

If he brings Jiminez and a few decent Portuguese lads with him (like Eusebio) then maybe.

Goodison_Gringo Tue 01 Jun 2021, 8:54 pm

It seems this summer's fad is to rehire former managers. Does anyone have Mike Walker's number?

God has really shat on our heads this time.

Rotterdam 1985 Tue 01 Jun 2021, 9:00 pm

Incidentally, names currently trending on my Twitter timeline include:

Eddie Howe
Steve Bruce
Tim Martin
Big Sam
Imran Khan

I really don't want to open any of those Twitter conversations as I might end up suicidal. From that list I'll be happy to give the big Wetherspoons lad first crack, and then Imran if he doesn't work out.

I'd rather the players go for some communist-inspired autonomous decision-making collective than go with Eddie Howe. He couldn't even cope with the pressure at Burnley so lord knows what he'd make of the Park End when we're 2-0 down inside 10 minutes at home to Brentford on the opening day.

Good old Mike Walker. Do you remember that "I always knew we'd stay up" bollocks after the Wimbledon game?

He's had a good life though. His last management gig was in Cyprus about 15 years back. He got binned after one season and decided to retire there.

Maybe we could pinch Pochettino before Spuds finalise... that would be good !!

Armchair Tue 01 Jun 2021, 10:10 pm

If Mosh wants to continue appointing big name managers, rather than up and coming ones, Rafa would be a logical choice.

Can I be the first to say that our new manager is fucking shit and I always said he was fucking shit?

SEFTON Tue 01 Jun 2021, 10:52 pm

I said this guy before Anchelotti was named, gonna throw it out there, Paul Fonseca
Carlo is coming to the end of his career Napoli sacked him Everton allowed him to leave,
Just wondering if we have dodged a bullet nearly 900k per month to watch the most boring football.
Carlo had pulling power but couldn’t gel the players.

Yeah I think you nailed it here Sef. At Christmas the idea of Ancelotti leaving would have genuinely upset me. Today I find myself not giving much of a toss. As my lad said earlier, if we're only going to finish 10th we may as well do it by playing some decent football.

I've never heard of Paul Fonseca, are you sure he's a football manager and not a singer doing a six month residential stint at some Las Vegas casino?

I presume you mean this guy Sef >> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paulo_Fonseca

Personally I think we need someone more seasoned... like Poch... there are a number of good managers on the pile at the moment so it could be interesting

If we'd made Europe... even the Eurowank II comp I think Carlo would have stayed

That's the feller M4G,

I would like Poch or Conte, But what's to stop them doing an Anchelotti and running for the first big club.

Any ways I DON'T SEE US GETTING THE MANAGER WHO I WISH FOR SO have resigned myself that Nuno spirit de Santo will be Everton's manager
by the grace of god. cheers

SEFTON Wed 02 Jun 2021, 1:58 pm

FC Porto manager Sergio Conceicao is in the frame for the Everton job following Carlo Ancelotti's departure to Real Madrid.
anyone more wiser who this feller is? Don't say Porto Manager.

Big Mosh needed the walk-before-you-can-run approach, when he first came here?
I remember being at Villa when the chant "We're feckin rich...." went up, and we pretty much started throwing Mosh Dosh all over the place. Three number 10s etc. We needed to grow with a manager who would grow with the plan. At least Tuchel had the raw material to work wonders with. We don't have enough raw material, or a manager. Maybe RM have to pay us some compensation? Then get someone who has something to prove, rather than a guy looking for another pay day. Fonseca is out of work? Might be a good fit.

hairy cataract Wed 02 Jun 2021, 4:28 pm

I don't care who we choose, I just hope we do it quickly so we can start putting together a squad that isn't shit. Though I'm not convinced we're actually as shit as we've looked under Carlo. He has been telling this group they're too useless to play possession, they're better without the ball than with it, and their main quality is determination. I mean, that's like telling a kid that he's thick as fuck but he should be able to get a job in Maccy D's if he puts in a bit of effort. Perhaps we need someone who isn't used to working with the likes of Ronaldo every day. Like, kudos to Carlo, he knows how to win with a team of winners, but we need someone who can add a bit of something to a team of losers.

I'm moving his thread to former Evertonians .... the wanker Carlo Ancelotti - glory era boss - Page 2 Jerkit

Made 4 Gwladys Thu 03 Jun 2021, 2:19 pm

Thinking a little more about Carlo... I wonder if..

- he will be interested to take James Rodrigues back to Real Madrid ?... if he rated him high enough to bring to GP maybe we could get a good buck for him ??

- maybe he feels he owes us a little after walking out on the project... if so he just might favour us to take some good players from RM, that won't make the cut for them.... but would improve us.... either on loan, or perms at a reasonable price ???

.... just hopeful thoughts really... but ....... but ?

Armchair Thu 03 Jun 2021, 2:38 pm

I suspect, while he rates James, he realised he was probably the only player of that calibre likely to join us due to his lack of form/fitness issues/general laziness.

Apparently Carlo Anchelotti's first transfer request is to hit Everton for Richarlison, Allegedly.

£90 million he's yours.

Just a thought I heard today?

Carlo Anchelotti was able to add clauses to his Everton contract stating that if certain clubs came in for him there wouldn't be any compensation required .
Then why the hell did we appoint him in the first place if we knew he wasn't totally committed to Moshiri's project. we are sometimes either desperate or too slow on the up take. affraid
