Eds. any chance we have overlooked Ralf Rangnik?
{Ed002's Note - Everton have shown no interest in him.}
1.) 22 Jun 2021 16:36:02
Shame. I think he could do a good job in England.
2.) 22 Jun 2021 19:12:18
Ah Rangnick, the mythical unicorn that gets installed as 10-1 odds for every job yet never gets appointed.
3.) 22 Jun 2021 20:39:21
Rangnick would be be poor for us, we need a manager with Experience of the Premier league, Rafa would be a far better choice.
4.) 22 Jun 2021 23:30:35
Why do we need a manger with experience of the premier league?
Klopp, pep, mourinho, pochettino didn’t have experience of premier league when they came to the league and they’ve all done very well.
5.) 23 Jun 2021 08:03:52
It's just one of many useless Myths in football. The constant belief that the Premier league is this special snowflake that requires divine powers to be able to succeed in.
6.) 23 Jun 2021 16:36:36
What a load of twaddle.
19 Jun 2021 21:31:40
Santo to spurs.
{Ed0666's Note - it really is a merry go round of managers no one wants!
16 Jun 2021 14:51:23
I hope the delay in appointing Santo isn't down the decision and role to give Big Dunc. let him go and manage at a lower level to prove himself and then return in the future if he is successful.
1.) 16 Jun 2021 15:48:45
I agree on that, we cannot keep him if a new manager wants to bring his own assistant manager with him, too many ex players with jobs, maybe we need to start from fresh.
15 Jun 2021 12:46:13
still talking with rafa?
{Ed025's Note - not sure to be honest rich..
1.) 15 Jun 2021 13:25:55
I’ve not spoken to him.
2.) 15 Jun 2021 14:58:17
I don’t want to speak to him.
3.) 15 Jun 2021 19:43:41
I never will.
4.) 15 Jun 2021 19:47:09
Nah, the tight git skipped his round in the boozer last weekend.
5.) 16 Jun 2021 01:24:45
Topham Hatt!
6.) 15 Jun 2021 22:21:52
We talked a bit, we were talking about Everton and I said “Iwobi is decent, Holgate can still be good and Delph has been a good signingâ€.
He said “Alex Iwobi is rubbish, these are factsâ€, “Mason Holgate is too inconsistent, these are facts†and “Fabien Delph has been a disaster, once again I am talking about factsâ€.
7.) 16 Jun 2021 10:57:51
Can't disagree with any of that Swan117.
8.) 16 Jun 2021 11:56:10
I have spoken to Rafa a long time ago when my nephew was in Hospital and I give him loads of abuse (banter) and he took it and gave it back he even came back at the end to say goodbye. If it is him I don't think it will be a bad appointment we are a mid table team with a bloated mediocre squad and if we appoint someone like Conte he will run as soon as a more attractive team turns up.
10 Jun 2021 12:30:37
Ed's all these reports are causing my anxiety issues! . could you please give us the top 3 candidates in order that you think the board have.
{Ed002's Note - Nuno Espirito Santo is very clearly first choice and his agent has a huge influence over the owner. I would guess that Rafa Benitez would be seen as a very viable option. After that it becomes difficult with the likes of Potter who has a job and would probably not be interested, Ferguson who would be very high risk etc.. If they fail to agree a deal with Santo you can expect Benitez will be approached.}
1.) 10 Jun 2021 13:22:30
Ah that is disappointing news that ed, it seems like as a club, they have no idea what or who they want, Nuno, Rafa and Potter are totally different managers, none of whom are suitable for us. I will keep my fingers crosses for a miracle haha!
{Ed077's Note - I wouldn't say Nuno and Benitez are totally different managers.
2.) 10 Jun 2021 14:21:44
18 months ago fans would of walked over hot coals to snap up Nuno so baffles me how people can say he's not suitable as for Rafa he has a history of winning trophies at nearly every club he's been at and the only reason he might be deemed unsuitable is his links to them lot across the park which if I'm being honest I'm past caring about I just want a manager who will come in and improve us and getting us heading in the right direction which I think any of those two will do.
3.) 10 Jun 2021 14:34:14
I have to disagree with that mate, for too long we have played negative football, to the point where if we concede the first goal at home to Sheff United in the first 5 mins of the game, its already game over. In the same way, if we are 1-0 up with 25 mins left, we just start panicking and bringing more defenders on, something both Nuno and Rafa do when leading by 1 goal. No way would I have wanted Nuno even 18 months ago, Wolves success was more dowm to good player recruitment in my opinion.
4.) 10 Jun 2021 14:08:33
Yeah ed you are right there, they can both make a team solid, I was thinking more Rafa tends to go with a back 4, where as Nuno at Wolves went with a back 3 with wing backs. to be honest, we don't have the personnel to play either way so I suppose its irrelelvant at the minute!
{Ed077's Note - but their teams generally play a similarly strong defensive footy though was my point
5.) 10 Jun 2021 16:43:22
I think nuno would be an ok appointment if he didn’t want to take over the recruitment aspect of it as well.
Would make no sense to appoint him if he then has mendes doing our deals instead of Brands.
As others have said in here we need a manager to manage the players and let Brands do the recruitment.
This is the perfect opportunity to rebuild our identity and recruit players that suit the club and what we want to achieve rather than suit a particular manager.
Not sure of many other jobs were a manger is replaced and then they replace their workforce - the keys in the name manager - MANAGE.
6.) 11 Jun 2021 09:28:10
Even 18 months ago, I'd have wanted the board to swerve Nuno. Always thought him to be overrated, most of his success is down to a core of quality players. Problem being that most of those players are all on the books of the same agent, mendes. If he was that good a manager, Wolves would have moved the earth to get him to sign a new deal. From the outside looking in, they weren't too bothered that he was leaving.

I have a feeling its going to be Big Sam. He has proven before he has the minerals for this situation. He will be cheap in relation to the other names mentioned, and will keep us up ready to be sold. I have no problem in Backing Big Sam!
1.) 25 Jan 2023 17:19:18
Not big Sam surely.
2.) 25 Jan 2023 17:35:22
Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?
3.) 25 Jan 2023 17:46:15
Better him than Moyes. Getting worried now with Moyes name being banded around.
4.) 25 Jan 2023 19:34:50
Not sure about Sam after West Brom, he lost that one, mojo may have gone.
28 Jan 2022 16:02:27
Hi Ed, . is your gut telling you Lampard on a permanent basis or Big Dunc on a temporary basis to revisit in the summer.
{Ed025's Note - lamps on sunday its saying rich..
1.) 28 Jan 2022 19:09:21
Who on Monday Ed?
2.) 28 Jan 2022 20:45:33
Hopefully a defensive coach with the golden touch DFS.
28 Jan 2022 14:29:13
So reports are Big Dunc, is on his way to the bright lights of London today for the interview to manage our great club. Here is wishing you all the very best! Good luck ?.
1.) 28 Jan 2022 14:36:59
Cahill spotted there too.
2.) 28 Jan 2022 15:28:57
God help us, he is not for me.
3.) 28 Jan 2022 15:55:32
If the team he picked last weekend is anything to go by then I would rather have Lampard.
4.) 28 Jan 2022 16:06:00
Think we have tried similar options to what’s available - koeman, Bobby, silva, Sam
Big Dunc hopefully can get the passion back - with sharp and Cahill I wouldn’t be disappointed
At EFC not to hard to fix - 100% effort which I think dunc can deliver - get the ball wide to Gordon, Townsend, Gray and into box for Tom
In the summer - need striker and replacement for Sigs to add creativity (expensive positions to fill however)
We have good players in our team - just need a kick up arse.
5.) 28 Jan 2022 16:40:24
We need midfielders.
6.) 28 Jan 2022 16:50:47
Decore
Allan
Gbamin
Gomes
Davis
Beni
Sigs
Townsend
Iwobi
Gray
Gordon
I think we have to get rid of a few first.
7.) 28 Jan 2022 17:10:21
Sorry Dunc might love everton but so do I but it doesn't make you a manager
He needs to go and should have a long time ago along with some other coaches.
8.) 28 Jan 2022 17:33:12
Tactically he’s not very good.
{Ed0666's Note - Rafa Benitez anyone?
9.) 28 Jan 2022 18:20:03
Sobs out of those you mentioned, three are wingers, two are injured, one can’t play anymore, one’s out on loan, one can’t play football, one has injury worried, one is too slow.
That’s leaves Allan who’s getting too old.
Agree with Brass we need midfielders.
10.) 28 Jan 2022 18:54:45
I don't think striker is a major concern. The central midfield is a disaster. The central defense needs altering immediately too. we are okay in attack.
11.) 28 Jan 2022 19:08:01
Sobs Dobbin and Richarlison? DCL on the bench?
12.) 28 Jan 2022 19:06:11
Ed0666, I wanted Rafa but have to be honest the Rafa I wanted didn't turn up and it was a nasty surprise. In my view tactically inept. Be honest now, 14 games 1 win, whatvwould you have done.
{Ed0666's Note - he deserved to be fired but also he deserved more time as he was beset my bad luck
17 Jan 2022 10:36:05
Hi Ed. would Sean Dyche be a good candidate. Its about time someone offered him a chance. Him and Big Dunc would be a good team I believe.
{Ed025's Note - in a tag match.. :)
1.) 17 Jan 2022 11:33:52
A good team of door men.
28 Jun 2021 19:37:07
Eds I don't know why, but I feel this manager hunt will still have another twist or 2. I still think Rafa will not be appointed?
1.) 28 Jun 2021 19:50:57
There has got to be reason why they haven't appointed him yet. Four meetings completed and still no announcement?
2.) 28 Jun 2021 20:08:23
D! Heads and banners prob something to do with it. So called supporters dragging the Club through the brown stuff. Who the heck would want to come to us while these morons exist.
3.) 28 Jun 2021 20:36:15
Rafa wants his back staff, Bill wants Dunc?
4.) 28 Jun 2021 20:37:39
Also, what worries me is that whether these idiots with the banners etc will put off some players coming to us.
5.) 28 Jun 2021 20:48:58
There's a shock . I think it's a stumbling block for any manager who wants to bring his own backroom staff.
22 Jun 2021 16:36:02
Shame. I think he could do a good job in England.
20 Jun 2021 23:21:18
No chance Mancini would come here.
20 Jun 2021 08:06:45
Thanks Ed@.
19 Jun 2021 22:18:44
Hi Eds. you mentioned EDS has spoken with other clubs. can u name any who u believe may be in that list.
{Ed002's Note - Spurs and Crystal Palace.}
16 Jun 2021 12:14:54
No offence but conte is an elite manager use to working with elite players with elite funds! . I feel we are far from that and he wants to challenge for honours straight away not aiming for top 6 etc.
19 Jan 2022 09:14:27
Better looks. come on Big Sam is handsome.
24 Jun 2021 17:12:13
ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜.
24 Jun 2021 16:27:04
Ed. I was hoping for Santo. if not us where do u think he will end up.
{Ed002's Note - Spurs.}
22 Jun 2021 16:54:04
Fed up to say. they said the same last week 😤.
21 Jun 2021 23:37:21
😄😄 rebuilding to get back in the Premier in 12 months.
