nogs Posted December 5, 2019 Report Share Posted December 5, 2019 Inevitable. Thought there were times last season when things were looking really good under him, but then again we stuffed Guardiola's City 4-0 under Koeman. Hindsight confirms the worries when he arrived - just not of the right pedigree for where we want to be. The bigger picture is that is now four managerial sackings in three years since Moshiri took over, and this of all of them reflects the worst on his decision making. He can't afford any more cock ups, the Prem is a brutal league and if we don't get some stability and direction we'll end up in the Championship.

Newty82 Posted December 5, 2019 Report Share Posted December 5, 2019 Gutted that we've gone through another manager. Not what I wanted to happen 18month ago. I thought we had a well regarded young manager who could help us onto the next phase. A bit of calm and progress was to come. It's all about results though, and at least showing progress. We just ain't done enough of either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why they went with Duncan over Unsworth this time around. Seems like kind of a slap in the face to him, but what do I know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palfy Posted December 5, 2019 Report Share Posted December 5, 2019 See ya Marco and enjoy the money mate you’ve done well for yourself. If we had an owner that had a clue about what he was doing you wouldn’t have been here, and we may not have been in the shit we are. Managers out round 5 coming up, god help us if Moshiri has any input in the next manager. Sev, Wiggytop and pete0 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post StevO Posted December 6, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Now the sacking is done and out of the way I feel sorry for Marco. Seemed a nice bloke and it didn’t work out, just out of his depth. Wish the guy all the best. MikeO, Newty82, Matt and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 We went about hiring him the wrong way, and sometimes you reap what you sow. I actually agree with the observation that maybe it was his former right-hand man who demonstrated nous and we were left with someone out of his depth. You hate to see anyone fail and lose their job, but there are times when you just have to make the right decision. My hope this time around is that we'll hire his replacement the right way (although I am rather surprised that we appear to be ill-prepared; we've had plenty of time to plan for this).

Btay Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Whoever we get in needs a proper over haul of the squad. In hindsight - which is a fantastic thing, we’ve gone into this season with 1 “proven” CB in Micheal Keane and even then he has proven to be wank again, Mina has stepped up and Holgate is still up for debate at this level - ridiculous. CM injuries have hampered us. Striker - DCL and Kean can develop, Kean has everything to become world class and I think Marco has tried to protect him as best he could. Tosun needs to go. lots of work to be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggytop Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 I’m struggling to feel sorry for him, yes he’s just been sacked again, but he’s had a good wage from us, and will get a fantastic severance payout, so he’s OK financially, and look where we are, in bottom 3 confidence shot, the laughing stock of the prem ( bar Watford) . If he had shown some balls and tried different options I’d have a modicum of sympathy, but he just kept trying the same old same old, striker for striker, Schniederlin on when we’re chasing a game, just not good enough.

I may be wrong but I don't see any manager coming in and making a huge difference until our midfielders are fit again and we have some half decent at the back, of and a striker that can score goals. Just look at Arsenal, as the same is happening there albeit they have 2 world class marksmen. Btay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Isaiah Posted February 2, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 He didn't work out, but for signing Richarlison, Gomes, Digne, Kean and Bernie, I'll still remember him fairly fondly. In comparison with Allardyce (Tosun, Walcott) and Koeman (Klaassen, Bolasie, Schneiderlin, 70 million pissed away right there ), he spent relatively well and has left us with the best/most promising players we currently have.

Richarlison aside I don't see why you'd credit him for the signings. And even then Brands already wanted him. Silva prioritised wingers and played Keane over Holgate, and Tosun/Richarlison over DCL. h Silva is the worst manager of my life time (possibly anyone's). I never thought I'd see worse than Smith yet Silva took the biscuit. 6 first team players and took us from 8th to 8th...only if thing is we got Alladyce over him as he'd have relegated us.

badaids Posted May 12, 2021 Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 He was hopelessly out of his depth and the bit in the article about Gueye, Gbamin and Zouma is basically a dig at Brands. But the whole article is just a job advert to potential clubs in Germany. I wish him luck because he’ll need it - 18 months out of work is a long time in football and longer than he lasted any of his clubs bar Estoril.

Popular Post Zoo 2.0 Posted May 13, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 I don't think that Marco Silva is a bad manager by any means, I just don't think he's an elite manager - something that we all wanted to get us to the next step. I have to say I was a bit uninspired when we signed Silva, but respected the clubs thinking and got behind him. Whereas I wouldn't go as far as to say he was a total disaster I do think that he reached the limits of what he could achieve and probably wasn't going to take us further, by the time he was sacked it was beyond time to go too as we'd clearly been to a crossroads and the players had taken a different direction to Silva and his coaching team. His time at Estoril cannot be underestimated, getting a small club that was fighting relegation in the second tier into the top flight is a great achievement and he's had success with Sporting and Olympiacos since, it's just that those are the clubs that I think Silva's level is at. Throw him back into Portugal or Greece and he'll probably do very well, managing a team in England or Germany that expect Champions/Europa League football? Questionable. I hold no ill feeling towards Marco I must say, comes across as a very nice guy and seems to have no ill feeling towards Everton - he just wasn't good enough IMO. 14 hours ago, Matt said: Didnt every outlet and even the coaching staff said JPG was Gana's direct replacement? Or am I opening Pandoras box with this? Thinking back I was under the impression that JPG was intended to be Gana's replacement but I could be wrong, he's been injured for that long so I've totally forgotten what his purpose was - probably a replacement for Alan Ball when he retired.

Bailey Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 It was pretty big to have your one energetic midfielder be sold to have a replacement get crocked straight away. I dont think he was anything special as a manager but he certainly isnt the worst manager we have had. I can easily think of a certain someone.
