He's then gone for the bloke who is largely credited with Leicester winning the league. On paper Walsh had the credentials to be successful here. Koeman was poor though. Only had to look at the thrashing we gave them that season. But we did need a new manager, Martinez got rid of all the fitness staff as he had an outdated degree and it showed with our players playing at a snails pace, shortly after that he lost the dressing room. Nice guy, but stubborn to his own philosophy. Shame as if he was willing to change his philosophy he could've grown in to a top manager with us and moshiri's money. 100% this.

Once that happens its game over for any manager and rightly so. Possibly he may have but I feel we have gone backwards since he left, but it’s all conjecture and we will never know.

Sold Salah for peanuts, has bought some players that have underperformed. They have been doing that well in the league. Meanwhile Sevilla haven't skipped a beat, if anything they've been even better.

It was only the semi actually but from the second leg I counted 4 started and 2 came off the bench. Dont quote me on it though, it was tongue in cheek anyway.

Finn balor Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 Mike parry was discussing Everton today and someone made the point of questioning Morishis acumen football wise as a businesman. He made a great point that brands has been here six months as a football director but is now on the clubs board? How does that work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn balor Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 I’m excited for this summer, I think brands is the man to move us forward. We ain’t gonna be signing dzeko, trippier etc. We are in the market for people that are under 25 and have a resale value Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In wages saved on the excess we probably will break even as well over the window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 I think the squad will be streamlined to death. All the hangers on will be culled I think. Why pay Pennington who I imagine is on 10k a week at least when U can find a top prospect at 18? That’s what he’s paid for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makis Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 All the ones that someone takes. Some of the players are on such high wages they are hard to move on unless the club pays a significant chunk of their wages. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a promoted team would take Mirallas even if we asked for under 5m. Bolasie is the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather we change xo pketwly and buy players for success. We don’t want to become a feeder club for the bigger clubs. We need to buy prospects, but also buy solid starters who are in their prime. Let the rest of the mid table clubs worry about resale value.... we want trophy’s and success, not to be known as a good business model. I see what your saying, I just think we need to take the next step. I’ll be dying in the next thirty years and want to see a trophy again before haha.

Aidan Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 Dzeko for a two year deal whilst DCL develops wouldn't bother me at all. We need an experienced striker who can hold the ball up and put the ball in the net before anything. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
