London Blue Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 3 hours ago, Palfy said: If we are in a proper relegation battle with 6 matches left to play we would have left it to late to sack him, that would be giving the new manager no time to turn it round if we lose to Cardiff he has to go immediately to give someone a chance of turning it around, to expect someone to come in with 6 games to play and save us from relegation is folly. We have the players to be 7th or at least fighting for it we don't have the manager to take them there. And who would replace him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why ask me that that’s what Brands gets paid to find out and if he is as respected in the game as much as we all think he is he shouldn’t have much of a problem finding the right candidate for the job. To do nothing to stop the slide into what could quite easily become a relegation spot on the basis you don’t think there’s a manager out there to replace him is crazy, let’s see what happens against Cardiff first we should win comfortably to be honest, but if we lose we will be a very difficult situation with the games coming up, and if we don’t change how do we turn it round because it’s very big and unanimous of people saying give him more time but the club are running out of time to get this right. For me lose against Cardiff and he has to go and I think if that does happen a majority of supporters will feel the same way, the risk of hoping he can turn it round will be to great to take on.

He's worked under 2 great managers but never been in charge himself. I agree that we need to give Silva more time but would be interested in Arteta if he was interested and could impress in interview. nyblue23 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully give us that jolt that having a new manager tends to give in order to win a few points towards the end of the season. I’m not advocating for his sacking, but we’d pretty much have to lose out through March to be in that position, and if we can’t win a match before April, I’d be pretty worried we wouldn’t win anything in the last six, either without a major change. Relegation is far from likely at this point, but if it becomes more likely, we’ll need to do everything in our power to stave it off.

sydneyneil Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 We need to get out of the mindset that new managers are put off by the sackings of recent managers. All the top clubs sack managers regularly. Just look at Real....and they can have whoever they want. Im not comparing us to them but for the managers that we can attract, it would always be a good proposition due to the clubs following and finances right now. Money talks, always has and always will.....when Marco Silva got the job Im sure we all agreed that he was a lucky guy to get such a good job and great opportunity.....there's not much difference one season later.

Real, Chelsea... they’re already established and stable for the most part, have much bigger coffers and massively better players. Not to mention competing for titles domestic and European. We need stablity. Once that’s established we can start the merry go round tactics of managers. But we are at least 5 years away from that. markjazzbassist and Btay 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If managers just keep coming here for the money like Koeman and Allardyce did then we aren't going anywhere fast. I also wouldnt want to be anything like Chelsea either. Their players used to at least turn up for one season but they cant even do that now. I am fed up with this spineless shower of shit as it is, I wouldnt want to see us paying some of the best players in the league to do exactly the same thing.

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2019/02/22/everton-agree-pay-watford-compensation-4m-avoid-premier-league/ Quote Everton have finally resolved the long-running dispute with Watford over hiring Marco Silva as their manager after agreeing to pay compensation which is understood to be around £4million. The deal will head off the need for a full independent QC-led inquiry being launched by the Premier League with the organisation having insisted that it wanted the issue sorted out. Watford made a formal complaint to the Premier League last year believing Silva had been ‘tapped up’ by Everton. The Premier League employed a law firm to interview all the parties involved in the case to establish what should happen next with the hope that a resolution would be reached. The range of possible sanctions, if the case went to an inquiry and it found against Everton, included a points deduction but the hope was always that it would be settled through a financial arrangement. That has now happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Quote Everton and Watford can confirm that they have reached an amicable agreement regarding the appointment of Marco Silva as Everton manager last year. Both Everton and Watford are keen to move on from this matter.

The cost of pursuing/hiring Silva is sickening considering the job he's done so far. We've paid extra for Richarlison (£10m I think Brands said), gave fat Sam an extra years wages (£6m) to convince him to stand in, and now £4m on top to avoid the investigation into tapping up Silva. Add an extra £2m for every place dropped from 7th (the expected amount the club would/should have been forecasting). It'll be another £6m if we sack him.

Good thing it's his own money he's throwing away otherwise we'd have been another Portsmouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Most of us were getting excited to get the DoF who brought in the likes of Drogba, Zola, Mahrez and Kante. Moshiri invested in him, like he promised, and things didn't materialise. People slamming him saying he's not very good at running a club, but not many complained when he came in and threw money at Walsh and Koeman. He wouldn't have known if the risk would have paid off or not, much like anyone else. However, at least we have an owner who is at least trying to make the right decisions and putting his money where his mouth is. His heart is in the right place, and he will seemingly keep trying until he gets it right - which he deserves credit for.

I disagree Palf.... if he was picking players, tactics, buying and selling them I would agree. He isn'tt though.... yeah he made a couple of poor appointments managerwise which is his fault but he has bought in brands and from that point I believe manager hiring will be his bag. Under kenwright we were nothing.... a team selling our best players, having failed stadium moves, failed investments, his mate phillip green fleecing us......it take moshiri any day over all that.
