heard this this morning but wasn't sure it wasn't bolloxx..
-
Decisive, right decision as we've known for ages now.
I hope we've got a replacement lined up.
-
Ding dong the witch is dead
-
BBC too
-
please please dont fuck up this replacement....
-
everyone needs to take a cold hard look at them selves (everyone)----the players can't get away with this scot free--- not saying his sacking is not justified, not all his fault --paid the price--
-
It was inevitable, no way could he carry on.
-
-
Big decisions to be made or have been made.
Fair play to Farhad came up to watch, slept on it then fired his ass.
-
Any statements who’s in charge now? Caretaker?
-
Breathing a sigh of relief here. Didn't think the board was gonna pull the trigger.
-
I've got a horrible feeling our problems are only really just beginning...
-
Thanks for last season....................... .....(Tumbleweed)
-
Most un-Everton like really. Maybe Moshiri is the real deal?
-
please please dont fuck up this replacement....
Like a Frank de Boer type?
He will probably apply again.
-
Marco Silva for me.
-
please please dont fuck up this replacement....
The Smiths??
-
Laters Konman. Best news all season.
-
Who's in charge now?
-
I am actually excited for the first time in weeks regarding Everton.
-
In reality who is there.
Ancelotti - don't think so. More chance of landing Lukaku back on loan.
Moyes- nope!
Big sam - no no no no.
Frank de Boer - no.
-
Its gonna be a long road to recovery tho
-
That’s the easy bit out of the way.
-
Phew
-
I am actually excited for the first time in weeks regarding Everton.
wednesdays game will soon knock that out of you, behave lid
-
Si should of waited a day to give his season ticket to the steward
-
Thank god. Needed to be done.
Not even because of the results or league table. The way we were playing was behond a joke. And he just kept with same shit expecting different results.
He deserved to go !!
Good riddance
-
You've got what you wanted
What do you want now?
3 wins on the bounce? 17th place to avoid relegation? A busy January in the transfer market? FA Cup? Attacking football?
Cheer the new manager before he's started? How long will give him? How will you feel if he loses the first 3 games?
Nervous
-
Finally
-
**Dances jig**
Wooooowhhhho

Why do you write like you're in an old TV show?
-
Does this mean I'm not giving my ticket away for Wednesday?
-
Was inevitable but I'm still sort of shocked.
The reality though is that we might find it difficult to get a suitable replacement, and, like it or not, us sacking a manager is failure, and nobody should be reveling in it.
-
Now get Barkley signed up
-
Woohooo, made up. But I wont be dancing a jig just yet, just in case they appoint Moyes or Big Sam, etc :D
-
I am not excited, just upset. I hate turmoil surrounding our club. Back to square one with God knows who playing the same cards as Koeman was dealt. Shit days ahead as well as the shit days we have already gone through. Must have been Moshiri. Endless crap managers will now be wafted through the media.
-
Strange they haven't mention unsworth ummm
-
What old TV show?
-
Can we appoint Ronaldo, as Player Manager?
-
About time, at least the board have acknowledged enough is enough.
Now we will have to see what happens, I hope the board have an idea of who to bring in.
-
think this will be a lot hard to turn round are current mess, than last time under Bobby---
not going to be easy viewing lads neeed 3 quick wins
-
Now get Barkley signed up
Graham Beecroft on talksport reckons there were major problems within the squad because of how badly Koeman treated certain players. It's probably safe to assume one of those is Barkley.
-
I wonder how much that has cost?
-
What is Joe Bloggs going to do with crap like Klassen, Williams and Sandro that Koeman did not do? Hey, I am the new boss and I command want you to suddenly become PL standard players cos I tell you to?
-
The thing that delights me most about this decision, isn't so much that he has gone, but its the type of decisions BIG clubs make.
I mean this in the sense that none of the so called big 6 would have stood for this if the same where to happen there.
Atleast Moshiri has the balls to make a decision like this. Kenwright would have been all loevy dovey again and Koeman would still be around.
The next appointment will be interesting.
-
Thanks for last season....................... .....(Tumbleweed)
Horrendous deja vu....

Thank fuck. I'll be reveling in it big time.

Moshiri has the financial clout to do it. Bill didn't.

Just rang my dad to tell him the news, both dancing round the room hahah :)

They're not crap. Get a friggin grip.
-

I'm still waiting for the milkman to let loose with his tales from 2 years ago.
-
Anyone else heard that he's had his full contract paid out?
-
They're not crap. Get a friggin grip.
Nah but it'll take a hell of a man manager to get these players out of their slumps mate. I just hope we don't fuck it up and get Big Sam. Personally I think we'll get Eddie Howe but I want Tuchel or Silva.
-
Fair to say the Arsenal fans in Bullens called it yesterday......
-
They're not crap. Get a friggin grip.
But they are not suddenly going to start performing either....
-
Anyone else heard that he's had his full contract paid out?
No wonder he was at San Carlo's and Neighbourhood. Have you seen the price of a round in there?
-
I wonder how much that has cost?
If you can buy the Liver building so you have nice office facing Bramley Moore then we probably don't need to worry about it.
Disclaimer: The purchase of the building may also make financial sense.
-

I can only see us taking a massive step backwards :(
-
I can only see us taking a massive step backwards :(
If we get Big Sam, we will stay up at least... yay

How can you step backwards from being the worst team in the league?

People expecting Ancelotti or similar are going to be very disappointed. :(
-
He had to go and I'm glad the trigger has been pulled
This isn't going to be an easy season, not entirely sure who the best appointment will be but here are a few thoughts on some possible candidates
David Moyes - fuck right off. Seriously if you are considering him you are basically saying you don't want success. Will he magically spring back to how he had us when he finished 4th with us in 04/05 like 13 years ago?or is it more likely he will be the total train wreck of a manager that he was in his last 3 jobs at Man United where he undid a legacy in about 8 months, sociedad where he bombed or Sunderland where he finally relegated a side who had managed to stay up doing the bare minimum for years?
David Unsworth - no management experience. Has done great work with the youth players. All round good guy. Too risky an appointment?better than giving Moyes a try for me just because we would be trying something new. Has worked with lots of the youngsters so we would deem him likely to give them a chance
Carlo Ancelotti - biggest name on the list. He's never taken on a job as shit and unattractive as this though. He has always been at title contenders and champs league regulars. Hard to know how he would get on but if he's interested we would have to give him a chance
Marco Silva - personally would love to see him given a chance. Has shown at Hull and Watford that he can get teams playing well in a short space of time. Studies opposition and is meticulous and seems to be a good man manager. I doubt he would leave part way through a season
Sean Dyche - he's done great at Burnley and I think he deserves a chance at a bigger club. Possibly unfairly labelled as some sort of management dinosaur. He's had Burnley solid defensively and hard to beat. Think he would jump at the chance to manage us
Frank DeBoer - would be a huge risk. Bombed at Palace and Inter. Not the right appointment for me
Sam Allardyce - you know what you get with Big Sam. I certainly wouldn't be worried about relegation if he came but it would be totally uninspiring
Thomas Tuchel - another big name given his reputation in Germany and good work that he has done at Mainz and Dortmund. Feel that he's holding out for a bigger job at a Champs league regular
Roberto Mancini - won the league with City. Hasn't done great since. Also I think he's total mental and I'm sure there's been stories about him losing the dressing room at City/Inter

Most narrow-minded Evertonians think we can be the best team in the world next week so.... probably yes.

Not making much sense there pal.

Would also be fair to say everyone has a clean slate, nobody ousted nobody being forced out and will be running through walls to impress whoever comes in now too 😅...so it's already a happier dressing room .
-
whoever takes over probably isn't going to be able to fix things overnight but can't see how things could be much worse
lets hope the board chooses the right person here.
-
break out the bubbly. time to celebrate! we can still kick ass this season!
-
I think big Sam is highly underrated. I'd have him as our manager now in a shot. He plays a system, is apparently a fantastic man manager, would shore up the defence and has bags of premier league experience with mid table clubs. Anybody on here who believes we are anything but a mid table team is deluded.
-
People expecting Ancelotti or similar are going to be very disappointed. :(
If we don't get Ancellotti then yes I will be very disappointed indeed. We need to be thinking big.
-
Plus all the backroom staff, bar Ferguson, I guess?
He might as well fuck off too, can anyone point to his achievements as coach ? Think he was only appointed because he was a so called legend and Koeman knew the fume he would get if he sacked him as well. Just my view mind you.
-
Let's see how Unsworth does first. Can't wait for Wednesday night now. Bet the players are buzzing.

Behave, he is awful, remind me again why he got kicked out of the England job after 1 game?
-
How do you decipher the right person from the wrong person without them being in the job?
I agree, Ferguson is happy where he is (cushy) - I doubt if he would take the manager's job, if offered
-
Dyche being mentioned
-
We need someone who gets us, Koeman never did and I'd be worried that a foreign manager without prem experience wouldn't get us either
-
Everton or Leicester, Sean?
-
What is Joe Bloggs going to do with crap like Klassen, Williams and Sandro that Koeman did not do? Hey, I am the new boss and I command want you to suddenly become PL standard players cos I tell you to?
Possibly what previous managers have, such as win silverware, or get 16 league goals out of them etc. etc.
-
don't shoot the messenger...
i'm hearing fonseca ? (spelling)
-
I want someone who loves the players, i want someone who wil get the players running through brick walls for them.
-

So how would sacking him solve anything if he doesn't do anything anyway.
-
We need someone who gets us, Koeman never did and I'd be worried that a foreign manager without prem experience wouldn't get us either
Moyes gets us and with decent money to spend could work well, so he was ambitious and wanted to go to one of the biggest clubs in the world, who would turn it down ? So he wanted some of our players, every manager likes to take players he knows, big deal.
-
probably something will be leaked by koeman or his agent to shed light on the goings on regarding player recruitment if he genuinely believes the club let him down by not delivering his targets - he will want to distance himself from the failure to try and get his next job in football
-

Hopefully not in the literal sense.
-

Maybe it's time to take your meds again, and the voices might stop?
-
Well it would free up his position and salary to bring in someone more effective, that's how it improves the situation, would have thought that was pretty obvious.
-

Yes he totally got us, however I don't want someone who has been a mess at his last couple of clubs
-
SWALK, eh Audrey?

Massively risky. I think the board will go for Dyche and he’s probably the most realistic, responsible choice.
I understand the ‘big time’ thinking by going after Ancelotti but he’s used to having a world class squad. He’s not know for his pragmatism or ‘making do’.
We might not want to hear it but this season is about survival, not about long term aspirations.
-
By the time you find out that Unsworth can't hack it we are too far gone to be saved, except by Big Sam who has to win the last 5 games to keep us up. You don't pass management of a big club like us to the likes of Unsworth, nice chap that I am sure he is. Rabbit in the headlights? Or just another Shakespeare we all feel sorry for a bit later. Think big, otherwise it could be 3 managers in one season..
-

Yeh I really loved his 'knife to a gunfight' mentality. Made me think he could really take us places.
-
Following Fergie wa a hospital pass as was taking on on already doomed Sunderland and zero cash, Spain is Spai, not every English manager will succed there.
-
Yeh I really loved his 'knife to a gunfight' mentality. Made me think he could really take us places.
How many of our other managers have taken us into the Champions league since it's inception ?
-
If Moyes gets it I’m done. Such a backwards step, from someone who purposely let his contract expire to make himself more appealing to others. He’s not the answer.
Ancelotti
Silva
Howe
In that order
-
Wow just seen it, got to say i'm surprised they pulled the trigger but i'm glad they did as we've looked dire
Ok first things first: He's the fall guy but its deffo not all his fault, he didn't get the centre forward he wanted or the other left sided defender he wanted so didn't have all the tools. That must be down to Walsh and/or the board.
But unfortunately even without those we shouldn't have been anywhere near as bad as we've been and that falls on him. I looks like the relentless pursuit of Sig was his call and that was a crazy transfer from start to finish - way too much to pay, after the signing of Rooney is didn't make much sense.
We were crying out for a goal scorer and some pace so why not go after those types instead of Sig. Made absolutely no sense to me at the time and doesn't now obviously.
The new guy will have a problem sorting out a system with this squad as some of these number 10's will have to be left out, you just can't play them all
Marco Silva for me, guy looks class but i doubt he'd leave so soon after joining Watford. I've got to say i've no idea who they'll go for but it will be an interesting few weeks.
Regardless of any of this we need to get back to basics and start getting some points on the board or we are going to really be in the shit
-
Following Fergie wa a hospital pass as was taking on on already doomed Sunderland and zero cash, Spain is Spai, not every English manager will succed there.
I suppose every female journalist is bordering on slappable too, seeing as we're making every excuse for the man since he left.
-

Technically Moyes didn't either.
-

Pretty sure he'll have signed a confidentiality agreement with his payoff to stop that from happening.
-
Ffs people aren't entertaining moyes returning are they
-
Technically Moyes didn't either.
Nothing technical about it, he didn't
-
About time...only a no th too late as he has been treading water ! Onwards and upwards people.
-
Moyes didn't win a thing and still hasn't
If it's silverware you want, avoid at all costs
But depends on what you want
-
I suppose every female journalist is bordering on slappable too, seeing as we're making every excuse for the man since he left.
Oh how righteous you are !
-
He got sacked in the (American) morning!
-
Sorry as I thought he would bring experience to the club, but hard to integrate so many new players (and not all good buys) to a club at this level. Hoping for a quick and great replacement. 🤞
-
Let's nip all Ancelotti and Tuchel shouts in the bud early eh?
Everyone agreed? Good
-
The thing that delights me most about this decision, isn't so much that he has gone, but its the type of decisions BIG clubs make.
I mean this in the sense that none of the so called big 6 woulf have stoof for this if the same where to happen there.
Atleast Moshiri has the balls to make a decision like this. Kenwright would have been all loevy dovey again and Koeman would still be around.
The next appointment will be interesting.
[/quot
Although big clubs wouldn't replace him with Eddie Howe.
-
No way will it be Moyes. Moshiri is an ambitious man. That's just lazy, hack journos and red shite wind-up merchants patting us on the head.
-
Let's nip all Ancelotti and Tuchel shouts in the bud early eh?

No. Has to be the first point of call, I’d rather ask, get turned down then go elsewhere rather than not ask the best 2 candidates on the market that are available
-
No way will it be Moyes. Moshiri is an ambitious man. That's just lazy, hack journos and red shite wind-up merchants patting us on the head.
Moyes' agent will be passing a few lines to the media too, to remind everyone that his client actually still exists and is sat at home.
-

I don't want him either but c'mon. He fucked it up in United, yes. The truth there was however that Sir Whisky-Nose wore out the group he inherited. The core players were old and had achieved everything. They weren't ready to take advice from a nobody, who made a biiig mistake when he got rid of Fergusson's backroom staff.
In Spain: Well, new league etc. That can happen. Sociedad didn't also have too many world beaters in the squad.
Sunderland: He, or any other manager in that seat, was doomed even before last season started. Sunderland's board had made it sure that time.
A football romantic in me would like to see him guide us to CL, win a cup or two... Then I woke up and let the cat out.
-
Moyes' agent will be passing a few lines to the media too, to remind everyone that his client actually still exists and is sat at home.
He planted seeds in the media last time, and ended up with Sunderland (then took them down).
No reason to think that would INCREASE his standing in the football world.
-
I don’t think we’ll appoint anyone until after the Chelsea game. Wouldn’t be fair.

-
who manages, then? Bainesy?
-
Unsy is caretaker manager with assistance from Royle, read it on Sky
-
who manages, then? Bainesy?
Unsworth. For the Chelsea game at least.
-
Thank fuck. Needed to be done.
Now maybe we can actually move forward and the players can find some confidence?
-
gotcha, I thought you meant avoid even the caretaker role since Unsy was maybe under consideration.
-
Unsy is caretaker manager with assistance from Royle, read it on Sky
He has a 100% record for us, hopefully it will continue.
-
Fully justified and not in the slightest bit knee jerk . Has tried and failed to get a tune out of any team he has fielded this season . Need someone to come in and pretty quickly establish a style of play and stick with it and the same team or near as damn it week in week out until we are out of this mess . Unsworth and Ferguson in the short term can give the fans a bit a lift and would doubtless have the backing of the players . Start by sticking it on Chelsea .
-
Moyes won't be first choice but he may be fourth or fifth. And it may well come to that.
-
Unsy is caretaker manager with assistance from Royle, read it on Sky
Wouldn't rush an appointment myself. We need to be wise with who comes in and I'd hope those two could at least steady the ship and pick a balanced side.
-
Unsworth. For the Chelsea game at least.
Free hit. No-one expects us to go through anyway, so no harm done if we lose. If we win, they might hold fire on a new man and give Rhino some time, as long as we pick up some points they've got a month or two to find someone to spend money in January.
-
I'm going to get fully behind Unsworth for now in the next couple of games, and look closely at the formation and shape of the team, who he's willing to pick and drop and what sort of reaction he gets from different players.
Worry about the long term after that.

Ha ha
-
Stamp on the wind up there
-
How can anyone suggest that we have any ambition if we pass the reigns to Unsworth? I have no clue who to go for, but other than the next two games let us go for someone will some credibility. Unsworth can pick his wonderful U23 team if he likes and we are relegated by February. This is the big time we are in, not the Sunday league.
-
Ha ha
Laugh all you want. I got wood at the thought.
-
Why does unsworth need royle's assistance?
-
Wow! I'm so glad Moshiri and the board didn't hang around any longer than necessary. I hate to see people down and out but his inability to turn it around was there for all to see. We go again. :)
-
Behave, he is awful, remind me again why he got kicked out of the England job after 1 game?
Because he was fiddling with agents. Nothing to do with his ability to manage a squad of players. Let's be honest all managers are involved with fiddles with agents just look at mourinho and raiola. Big Sam was just targeted because he was england manager.
-
Wow! I'm so glad Moshiri and the board didn't hang around any longer than necessary. I hate to see people down and out but his inability to turn it around was there for all to see. We go again. :)
Isn't 'we go again' a red shite thing?
-
Glad weve acted at the right time, Walsh & the players also need to take some of the blame - I think it will improve from now though, expecting a response.
-
Isn't 'we go again' a red shite thing?
Fuck off you! Nah! ;) I'm just relieved we're getting the chance pretty early to try and sort this mess out. Will remember not to use that term again. Relief just isn't in the script.
-
We go again. :)
*shudder*

The long term is probably relegation unless we get a decent manager. It will take a very good one to get anything out of some of the dross we have before the transfer window opens. I would verbally back Mickey Mouse in the job but we can't allow Mickey or even Unsworth to take us closer to relegation. 8 wins and 8 draws wanted to get 40 points. Imagine any good players available from January saying ooh I want to play for David Unsworth? He does a sound job with the U23s and feeds his family. Leave him there and don't tempt him into potential redundancy later. Short term only, even if he won a game or two. Think big, not like Leicester City with Shakespeare.
-

Personal opinion, at this moment in time Ancelotti would be a mistake I think, he wouldn't motivate these at the moment. I'd leave unsworth & royle in charge for the next few weeks and see how they get on- we need wins quickly
-

Not that we'd ever get him but you don't think a multiple time European cup winner, German league, Italian league (plus a shit load more honours) could motivate a fucking Everton team?
Really?
-
At least he is big time unlike some names mentioned on here.
-
It will be interesting to see how the players attitude changes on the pitch and if there is any change in motivation and work rate in our next few matches, that will tell us a lot about Koeman and his relationship with the players.

Leave him there and don't tempt him into potential redundancy later. Short term only, even if he won a game or two. Think big, not like Leicester City with Shakespeare.
Mate, you wanted to keep Koeman no matter how badly we played or how awful things became, so it's difficult to take your opinion on Unsworth or other managers too seriously.
And you've just called Sandro and Klaassen 'crap'. Crack on with your opinions, and I'll leave you to it.
-
I don't want him either but c'mon. He fucked it up in United, yes. The truth there was however that Sir Whisky-Nose wore out the group he inherited. The core players were old and had achieved everything. They weren't ready to take advice from a nobody, who made a biiig mistake when he got rid of Fergusson's backroom staff.
In Spain: Well, new league etc. That can happen. Sociedad didn't also have too many world beaters in the squad.
Sunderland: He, or any other manager in that seat, was doomed even before last season started. Sunderland's board had made it sure that time.
A football romantic in me would like to see him guide us to CL, win a cup or two... Then I woke up and let the cat out.
Still though do we go for someone who has failed massively in his last 3 jobs
No matter what he excuses he has, and those listed aren't good ones, we can do better

@Bally (http://www.nsno.co.uk/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=19) My mate was speaking to a fella at the weekend who works for Wrexham FC

The Bayern players didn't think they were training enough. They organized their own independent sessions. That is a red flag.

Not that we'd ever get him but you don't think a multiple time European cup winner, German league, Italian league (plus a shit load more honours) could motivate a fucking Everton team?
Really?
Could Koeman? No. We need somebody whose gonna put some belief into these and who knows them and grind wins out, gotta question ancelottis motivation to come to Everton at this stage of his career- my guess would be solely £££, Tuchels different as he's young and got something to prove.

Pretty sure he won't be running with it now, if true, unless he fancies a turn in the dock

How can anyone suggest that we have any ambition if we pass the reigns to Unsworth? I have no clue who to go for, but other than the next two games let us go for someone will some credibility. Unsworth can pick his wonderful U23 team if he likes and we are relegated by February. This is the big time we are in, not the Sunday league.
Has he had your bird ?? A little bit unfair methinks .
-
Could Koeman? No.
What's Koeman won as a manager?
As much as me... Fuck all.

Now get Barkley signed up
Well according to quite a few of our fans even posters on here alluded to it, Koeman was the main reason Barkley wanted to leave....Let's wait and see eh.

Sandro and Klassen are crap. Don't you go to the games? In which game have you seen either in which they were other than crap? Koeman did not make them so. He or someone else dropped a clanger in signing them. Even Klassen writes an article which explains "why it is so difficult to play in the PL"
Yes I did not want massive disruption and wanted Koeman to turn it around, but am well aware there were no signs of it, and what has happened was inevitable. I have no opinion on Unsworth except he is not and has never been a football manager. Imagine one of the so-called big clubs turning their team over to a U23 coach? No, neither can I. Two games only regardless.

All depends on whether Spurs still want him. Most players would walk to WHL to play under Poch I would have thought.

Koeman might have been a bit of a biff to him behind the scenes but he wants to leave cos Spurs have been in his ear since before Ron arrived.
He ain't staying lads.

Hope he didn't forget to pack his little pet "footballer", Cuco, this time.

I think giving it to unsy for next few games is leaving us in good hands, to say he doesnt know the prem or hasnt got experience isnt at all fair, stepped in before, succesful with the u23s, so knows how to set a team up. Probably knows more about the opposition we face than most of the foriegn coaches mentioned. Give the guy a go till we know more about who is coming in

What good is it in the mess were in taking a manager who knows very little about the club & players, whats wrong with employing from within, could have a brilliant manager in unsworth - give him a shot for the next month or so and see how were doing.
-
Koeman isnt a bad manager... his Soton spell and first season here showed that.
But the summer transfer window screwed everything, esp the 3 no.10's and not gettng a Lukaku replacement.
Whoever we get will have a job on.
-

It's a slim chance I'd agree. Especially since Spurs are killing it right now. Who'd not want to join them?
However, if we did get someone like Tuchel and we started to show a different mentality and Barkley was central to that again, mix in a huge offer and given we're his boyhood club there might be that desire to give it one more go.
Not holding my breath though.
Given our situation I think we'd be crazy to let him go in January though. We should at least see him finish up the season with us.
-
I will be hugely disappointed if I even see the words Cuco Martina ever again let alone see the lad in an Everton shirt.
-
I love Unsy and he's done a great job with the U23's, but throwing him in in our current situation is a massive ask.
Someone like him could've come in after Moyes with us a strong team, but now isnt the time.

And so it begins

Oh my god please. Any of them would be great i reckon
Very unlikely though, Ancelotti and Tuchel both turned down approaches from Leicester i've heard
Are we a bigger draw? Hmmmm

On the other hand, coming in from an absolute car crash like the Koeman era makes things a lot easier too. We're so low now that if he sorts out the basics, fans will be happy, or at least stay onside. Whereas coming in after the relative success of Moyes and with elevated ambitions can be trickier to manage. But, as you say, it's easier in other respects because you start out with something that basically works.
-
I did feel sorry for Martinez when he got sacked, I think he was genuinely gutted that he coudn' t make it a success, I think he proper loved the club too.
I don't feel sorry for Koeman at all (as harsh as that sounds), I think he's probably happy that it's been nipped in the bud and might not taint his CV too much.

Koeman signed off every transfer mate. Walsh wanted Belfodil and Koeman didn't and we didn't sign him.
Koeman chased Klaassen, Rooney, Gylfi. Walsh clearly had a role but the buck stops with the arrogant, self absorbed Dutchman.

Agreed that the buck stops with Koeman he was the manager, however (and I stand to be corrected on this) I thought the deal was Walsh recommended a player and Koeman then had the final say? Well if all he could come up with was 15 no 10's he can do one too
-
Genuine question but who is Unsworth up against, I’m assuming there aren’t the Peps and Jose of under 23 level (I genuinely don’t know) that he’s out thinking? I just thinking leaving our premiership future in the hands of such little experience is dangerous, short term fine, but no more than a couple of games regardless of results

If Walsh doesn’t go to then there is something wrong with our board. He is just, if not more, culpable than Koeman

That's the theory but the practice can work out in many different ways, and we don't really know what the actual dynamic had been between Koeman and Walsh.

All depends who the new manager is going to be. Someone who wants Walsh or not.
I'm pretty sure definitely schnierdlin Martina, klassen, gylfi were all koemans doing. Probably Rooney too. So bit harsh to throw onto Walsh.

Walsh is DoF the buck should stop with him, especially the no striker issue which is our number 1 issue

What is Joe Bloggs going to do with crap like Klassen, Williams and Sandro that Koeman did not do? Hey, I am the new boss and I command want you to suddenly become PL standard players cos I tell you to?
They will hopefully have an arm around them and be coached and mentored to build their confidence back up. The job a manager should do and a job that evidence suggests Koeman didn't do.
They aren't bad players.

it was obvious Walsh and Koeman didn't see eye to eye, doesn't mean Walsh is blameless mind

There's a lot more wrong at the club than just ham-hock face. I'm glad to see the back of the graceless twat but I'm worried.
The way Moshiri deals with us and the seeming reluctance to change the people dealing with the tranfers is massively worrying. I fear that if the next appointment isn't the right fit we could find ourselves in Sunderland style trouble in the next few years.

Everyone was lauding the signings a few weeks ago . The problem is the shape shifting and ever changing line ups every single game . They need organising first and foremost and knowing you will play 2 games in a row in a position you are comfortable with helps . Just look how Davies has been used so far this season . We need to go 4-4-2 and stick with it so they players are comfortable with their roles and confidence will grow . The gaps all over the pitch yesterday were unbelievable and Arsenal didn't even need to play that well . Oh and practice corners .
-

No but there has to be some bond between the manager fans and club. It's why Martinez was given much more opportunities to redeem himself. There was litterally nobody behind Koeman. It's all well being cold and distant when things are going well but it doesn't work when it goes bad

OK so Koeman untimately signed them, but Walsh has a lot to answer for in recruitment.

The whole hierarchy at the club need to take a look at themselves. It's all very well laying all the blame on Koeman and he deserves a lot of it, but we've got a majority shareholder, chairman, chief executive, director of football etc and they should all shoulder some of the blame for the mess over the last 18-24 months, starting right back when we held on to Martinez for too long.
Moshiri's making all the right moves off the pitch, new ground, record sponsorship deals, clearing debt etc but on the pitch it's all been a bit of a mess and he comes across as almost a little naive. Koeman was a fairly 'safe' if uninspiring appointment and we even managed to drag that out. His first couple of window's weren't great then having started well with this summer's window they went on to make an absolute mess of it and failed in their biggest objective, replacing Lukaku or at least getting someone of a decent pedigree in. That's before we go down the route of all his stupid conversations with Jim White, the biggest attention seeking bellend on Sky who's absolutely lapping it up.
We got Walsh in, who as far as I was aware the manager answers to the DOF yet none of them had the bollocks to walk away from the Sigurdsson deal even though it was becoming clear that we were about to get out pants pulled down to get him and we were still woefully short up front. I've no idea what Steve Walsh even does (scouting trip to Italy proved fruitful) but it's beginning to look increasingly like the story that he discovered Mahrez and Kante (I'm not even sure he did) and Leicester's league win has elevated him to a position beyond that of his abilities.
Koeman's rightfully gone and not many tears will be shed but there's a hell of a lot of lessons need learned over the last 18-20 months, I just hope they can as this is now a massive appointment for the club, two managers sacked in 18 months, we can ill afford to fuck this one up as well.

More likely Rooney is quietly moved aside (or used as an impact sub), if you ask me. Sigurdsson is generally a well-regarded player, and he'll be used properly by the new manager, I'd bet.

Said it ages ago and got shot down about Ross waiting for Koeman to go before signing a new deal.

Yes, 70 million for Klaassen and Sigurdsson. Shrewd purchases that needed a top class director of football who can unveil hidden gems in the European transfer market.

It's all quite strange and maybe someday we'll hear Koeman's side of the sad tale.
It's hard to imagine how he got this bad as a manager so fast...without some "help" from above.

Ancelotti is not going to get involved in a five year plan at this stage of his career. He takes on top clubs for a couple of years at a time and oversees their continued success.

Bullshit. Koeman has the final say on his team and transfers. A fair few will be down to Walsh, who he will have recommended them to Koeman and got the nod of approval from him, but Klassen and Sigurdsson are clearly Koemans idea.

Walsh has to answer for the glaring lack of CB depth and LB cover. The rest I think is indeed to pin at least 80% of the blame on Koeman.

https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2017/oct/23/ronald-koemans-everton-sacking
Almost £70m was spent on Sigurdsson and Davy Klaassen at Koeman’s insistence. Both have made anonymous starts. Rooney, Sigurdsson and Klaassen prefer to operate in a central role and the former manager’s thinking was clouded as he persisted with two, sometimes all three, in his starting lineup with predictably ponderous results.
Koeman admitted only on Friday: “What is the best formation? What is the best striker with Wayne, Sigurdsson, Klaassen? We struggled at the beginning to get the right formation and that makes it difficult. Then not good results and that brings us back to the lack of confidence.” Six weeks and £45m were spent prising the Iceland international from Swansea City.
-
And now we probably will have Barkley staying if he's in the new manager's plans.
-
Bullshit. Koeman has the final say on his team and transfers. A fair few will be down to Walsh, who he will have recommended them to Koeman and got the nod of approval from him, but Klassen and Sigurdsson are clearly Koemans idea.
I'm not going over old ground again but as DoF it's his responsibility. It's him that should be saying NO if he doesn't think it's right, that is his job!
-
That's am even more damming assessment of Walsh. Your basically saying Koeman took the piss and walked over him regardless
That's a damning assessment of the board for not backing Walsh. All of his authority must stem from the board, it's not enough to just put a guy in place.

It's the first time we've had this arrangement and we clearly failed to demarcate clear lines of authority (and, for that matter, make sure DoF and manager can work constructively together). We need to learn from that, and quickly.

I agree.
This really is a crucial part of having a DoF, which I talked about when we appointed Walsh. It must be an integral part of how the club's doing business, and both the manager (or head coach) and the DoF must know what their responsibilities are and how not to tread on each other's toes. A DoF buying players whether the manager wants them or not is just as useless as one that yields to every request. It's very tricky to get it right and we obviously didn't.
Whether Walsh is the right man for the job is yet to be seen though.
-
Said it ages ago and got shot down about Ross waiting for Koeman to go before signing a new deal.

'toe treading' is inevitable.
the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing is never the way forward.
no idea how this can be resolved without upsetting one or the other...

Well, the theory is that DoF is there for the long term, and the head coach is responsible for the short term. Ideally the DoF is part of the club's brickwork, a well-respected ex-player or something similar. They should also constantly talk to each other. It's fine to disagree but when they finish their discussion, they should do so with a clear decision.
That's the theory.
In practice if it isn't part of the whole culture of the club (like it is in most German clubs), it usually fails miserably.

No, he wants to leave because he doesn’t get us...

I don't know. We've got better technology now and scouts can do things that even ten years ago would've been seen as science fiction. Maybe automation and algorithms is the answer. (Though I personally hope not.) Maybe managers could be successful by staying hands-on with recruitment and delegating more of the coaching and preparation work. (Ferguson did this pretty well.)
I genuinely have no idea.

Sounds like Walsh is the world’s most expensive chief scout. Hardly has the authority or profile of a genuine DoF like Monchi.
-

Both.... Koeman for letting Galloway go on loan and Walsh for not getting one in.... assuming Koeman asked him for one. Saying that, they were probably too pre-occupied with Sigurdsson and his agent for 2 months.
-
I think there is a role for a DoF, in theory it makes perfect sense. You don’t want to keep emptying the knowledge bank every time you change your managerial appointment and he takes all his staff with him.
You need some continuity to gel everything together in the modern game.
The key is finding a good, experienced guy with the people skills to work with a variety of manager’s from probably a variety of cultures. He also needs the trust and backing of the board.
-

Think they must be more civilised and more diplomatic, it always seems to be strife over here.
-
It is difficult for clubs lower down the league to get the best out of a DoF. If you are a rich club at the top of your game and recruitment is mostly cherry-picking the best players from around the world the position takes pressure of the coach and lets him prioritise the first team.
If you are on a budget and have to make decisions about players of similar abilities and sacrifice one player to sign another there will be more of a chance of conflict.

I’m looking forward to the Chelsea game now. Haven’t felt like that for too long now. I am not the only one, so just for that Koeman deserved to go. I’m very optimistic for the future now, I hope Unsworth gets the job till atleast Xmas. Can see the positive vibe emanate throughout the whole club now. Players who haven’t been performing hopefully will get a new lease of life and we will move up the table rapidly. I even fancy us against Chelsea. Unsy gets the club from all angles and his knowledge of the under 23s will help us too. COYFBB

Realistically looking at it is hard to do. I can’t see unsy playing the players in the same way as Koeman. So the only way to look at it is optimistically. N that’s the first time in a long time I’ve felt like that about our club. Feel like a weights off, maybe the players will feel the same way too
-
Unsworth definitely my choice even if for the short term, rather that than rush in and get the wrong man for the job
-
Unsey to steady the ship in the short term then we have 3 new signings within the next 6 to 8 weeks, Coleman, Bolasie and Barkley to give us the shot in the arm we so badly need. Not all doom and gloom now fellas, we have cut out the cancer now the healing process can begin. COYB

I know, I'm not saying Galloway was the answer.... but he was decent in his 1st season at the club. In fact, out of him and Holgate, he seemed the better player.
Koeman bombed him out from his 1st pre season. He could still play left of a 3 and left back when called upon. Hes basically another Koeman has killed.
All said though, we should've bought another LB.

The funny thing is I think Niasse actually would wish Koeman good luck and mean it.
Had plenty of opportunity to show it was personal or he held a grudge and never did. I assume Koeman turning away when he scored was partly because he was expecting Niasse might make a point and he did, for the ball. Was one of the only players still trying for him, as the ship was saved from fire, by sinking against Arsenal.
He has now got 4 goals in 180 mins, 3 of them were assists from Davies, 2 of the goals he won the ball in the first place. Now he gets to play for the manager who he played so hard for in the under 23s and who knows his qualities and believed in him.
Love this bit after the 2 goals at Bournemouth.

Lots of varying views in this thread, including the bewildering idea that we have gone to early on koeman.
Personally would have binned him at half time in the atalanta match. I don’t know whether it was a lack of skill or a lack of will but not being prepared for a massive game is totally unacceptable.
There is also the argument that the transfer window was a shambles. Personally I don’t buy that. Replacing lukaku was never going to happen, but it’s worth remembering that with or without his goals we would still have finished 7th. The fact is we have options at center forward, not great ones but options all the same. Between Calvert lewin, niasse and even the likes of mirralas he had players capable of playing that role if they had sufficient support or supply.
We have conceded 22 goals in 10 games the argument that a lack of striker is our main issue lacks credibility.
Just because he had 3 number 10s in the squad doesn’t mean he had to play more than 1 at a time. Rooney is 32. He should be playing cup games and on the bench or as cover in the league. The only real disaster was martina who was definitely a koeman signing.
Steve Walsh’s job, as far as I’m aware, covers more than just the first team and he has pulled in a some good players at academy level. I think there is room for improvement but given koemans aloofness and apparent disinterest the question should be asked how supportive koeman was in the transfer process. As a player I imagine you want to know the manager or head coach wants you and is going to put you in the team. If Ronnie either neglected that or participated reluctantly and or sullenly I can see why giroud or whoever else we went for might have decided to stay put.
I’m excited to see what happens now. I think we will see an instant improvement. Chelsea will not have out a first choice team and we should be bang up for it. The fact the next three games are away might be a help rather than a hinderence. Apart from the Chelsea match (if they did put a strong team out) we should win both of those games. A couple of wins breeds confidence and then if can put a decent run together. Squeeze through in the EL thecseason suddenly looks a lot rosier.
-
Marco Silva for me.
Agree.

As much as I am happy Unsworth and co. are coming in for a few games and will probably improve feeling about the place regardless of results, I do want the replacement in place with plenty of time to plan for January spending. It will be absolutely crucial.

Yes, probably much like Mourinho, Ferguson, and going much further back and closer to home, Catterick - all of them probably bastards to work for. Now Roberto was a really nice man and a pleasure to play for. He would tell you that you are the best player ever and will be a legend. I know which type I prefer - the bastards. Niasse, bless him, would not have got a job as a ball boy under the bastards.

Seems like you're pushing aside the awful treatment of a seemingly nice guy. Interesting that.
-
Let's be honest, Niasse treatment notwithstanding, his methods of working and man management have come under scrutiny wherever he's been it seems. We had a post-Martinez bounce in which it could be argued anyone with a degree of professionalism and managerial experience would have lifted that group of players from the depths they were in, and he got an extra 20% on top due to people wanting to impress a legend of the game. Since then it's unravelled quickly and he's alienated quite a few popular players.
Looking back his treatment of Barkley was met with mixed reactions at the time but he was given the benefit of the doubt as he was Ronald Koeman. Maybe now, if Barkley signs, we'll see a rejuvenated Ross freed from the old self-limiting shackles and given a fresh start. Although God knows where he'll play seeing as we have about a dozen players for about three positions now.

Ranieri? Guardiola? Mancini? Pochettino (albeit still yet to win) I think it's down to competence and drive myself (and a boatload of money). We're used to associating success with the likes of Ferguson and Wenger who are testy and petulant. I actually think it's been changing a bit in recent years as coaching has evolved. It's less about just showing "passion" and a bit more analytical and motivational work.
Basically whether you're nice or a complete arse, I think there are more important factors at work. Either one can be successful these days though.

Sandro and Klassen are crap. Don't you go to the games? In which game have you seen either in which they were other than crap? Koeman did not make them so. He or someone else dropped a clanger in signing them. Even Klassen writes an article which explains "why it is so difficult to play in the PL"
Yes I did not want massive disruption and wanted Koeman to turn it around, but am well aware there were no signs of it, and what has happened was inevitable. I have no opinion on Unsworth except he is not and has never been a football manager. Imagine one of the so-called big clubs turning their team over to a U23 coach? No, neither can I. Two games only regardless.
Probably a bit late with this but you mean like Barcelona did?
-
His treatment of Barkley has been nothing but fine as far as we know. He wanted him to sign, and he wanted him to play.
As for niasse. Niasse isn't good, guys. He was told that and put on the U 23's and told that they would try to get a deal for him to play elsewhere, which eventually they did.
Tell me why this is so "terrible"? It's football. It's professional football.
I'm not a koeman fan, but let's just stick to facts. He sucked as a manager, and helped screw up a major transfer window.
-
Didn't know Barca were facing relegation when they made that change. Presumably whoever took over carried on from a good foundation?
-
Loads of word that Koeman was a complete control freak around FF.
He and his cronies having to be first sat down for lunch etc. Not surprising to hear.

Niasse is as good an option as any of the other strikers we have on the books and has 3 league goals after only playing in 4 games and starting 1. He's not as bad as we all originally thought and should of been in contention all season long.

I handed my season ticket in to a steward saying I wouldn't be back until Koeman was sacked

-

Are we facing relegation? Also all clubs have their targets. Unsworths targets here would be relative to our abilities.
Let's be quite clear here we are a lot more likely to avoid relegation than Barcelona were to win the title when they appointed guardiola. So by your argument unsworths targets are a lot more achievable. If it's avoiding relegation then he has an easy job

Aye, Lois van Gaal was the same at United. Wonder if DeBoer did this as well/a Dutch thing?

A lot of the stuff being drip fed out now doesn’t reflect well on him to be honest. If even half of it is true it’s no wonder it looked like morale was low.
There are ways to act as a decent human being which ensures you get respect and it looks like he was lacking in that regards.
-
Some of the rumours I've been told are ridiculous to be honest
But, it does seem that he's a massive control freak, a stubborn one at that, refused to speak to players for days on occasion, and wouldn't listen to any new ideas in training etc

So you're the reason why he was sacked then, can imagine the convo between Bill and Elstone

Seems to be a common theme with everything that's coming out.

Remember when Andy Gray was a few hours from becoming our manager back in the 90s? Was gutted when he decided against it.
-

He had no intention of becoming our manager, turned us down blaming someone at the club for making his possible appointment public, when in reality he used us to get a hefty payrise from Sky,
-

I don't think that was entirely true. He'd have been silly not to at least give it some serious thought.
-
Interesting sentence in that Guardian story:
Ibrahimovic was sold to Juventus in the ensuing mess and, without a striker, Ajax collapsed.
Sounds like history has repeated itself for Koeman.
-
Sounds about right what Gray said
You either take to an arrogant Colonel style management or you don't ("I'm in charge, you'll do it my way or the highway")
Cloughie was like that, his captain John McGovern quoted "He could speak to me how he wanted and I'd still run through the desert all day for him, but would I socialise and go to a restaurant with him - no way, didn't like the man!"
I don't think any of Harry Catterick's players had a good word to say about him
In the 60s & 70s players didn't have a lot of choice and so responded to it, but now, as Alan Ball once said "How do you motivate a bunch of millionaires?" They can turn their back on a manager without really being hurt
Gotta move with the times, Unsy! It would appear that the Dutch, haven't

A few of us said that...weeks ago, and we're told to wind our necks in. We'd still be in the El for starters.
-
I thought from early on in the season that something was wrong with the squad, but I suppose with that feel good factor of some big transfers and also a tough start in the league that no one expected much of it masked over the fact that he had lost the dressing room. Probably many small things have built up and into the players not giving their all under Koeman.
Was the Barkley situation the start of the downfall? That would kind of fit in the timeline. If someone is well liked in the dressing room and someone pissed them off why would it not effect the other players, then maybe some of Koeman's other shall we say quirks start to niggle then before you know it everyone thinks the boss is a wanker.
-
-
“I had Olivier Giroud in the building,” Koeman added. “He would have fitted perfectly, but at the very last moment he decided that he’d rather live in London and stay at Arsenal.
“That was really hard to swallow. You tell me, where you can get a better striker? Lukaku was so important for us, not just because of his goals. He had a certain way of playing as a striker – strong.
“He could hold the ball, he always had an eye for the goal, he was fast. If things were not going well in a game, if we could not play the way we were used to, there was always the option to use the long ball towards him.
“All of a sudden [after Giroud’s decision], we were missing such a player. With Nikola Vlasic and Wayne Rooney, we had attackers who want the ball at their feet.
“When you are struggling as a team with the build-up from the back, and we no longer had the option to kick it long, you know you have a problem.”
-
“Last Thursday, after our defeat to Lyon in the Europa League, I knew it was crisis time," Koeman told Dutch football magazine VI . "I am not daft, I know how the football world operates.
"I could figure out how things could go. I was sure I would be on the bench against Arsenal on Sunday. But another defeat against Arsenal and I could see that anything would happen.
"And if things did not improve in those last games, I had worked out what would happen.
"Maybe there was a chance to coach against Chelsea in the EFL Cup and maybe I would be able to do Leicester City away and Watford just before the international break."
-
'I was on holiday when I received the Premier League fixture list by e-mail.
'I looked at it and saw that five of our first nine games would be against clubs from last season's top six: Chelsea, Tottenham, Man City, Man United and Arsenal.
'I looked at it again and I said to myself, ''Phew!'
'That is not going to be an easy run, in particular with a Europa League run at the same time and a really early start with all the players because of the European games. And most of all, because I had lost my striker Lukaku.'
Ronald mate he's left us, get over it man.

Not making Excuses for the guy. But there's 3 massive parts in this quote to why he was sacked. Tough start + tons of new players + no striker.
He was doomed from the start.

Nah, he got himself sacked by the manner his teams played and the way he went about game management also he had lost the players. That's why he was sacked.

We used to start absolutely shite every year under Moyes, but he never seemed like he lost the dressing room, this was completely different this year with Koeman.

You could throw that at most clubs though, with the exception of Real and Barca. Nothing has ever really changed, every team is happy to sell if the price is right and always will be. The only real difference is clubs have lost their backbone to some extent and allowed players to dictate what happens, it should be a negotiable position, but I think its gone to far towards the players.

Does that mean that if Allardyce gets offered the Luxembourg job, we are officially the feeder for the Benelux?

I get the sentiment like. But, at the end of the day, they are employees and deserve the same legal rights and protections as you or I.
If i wanted to leave my current employer (even if doing so would make me a tit and leave colleagues struggling) then i am and should be allowed to do so.

Especially in the case of Mahrez recently. Denying him the chance to move to the top of his profession after he's helped them perform a miracle and win the league, and they'd also make a 15,000% markup on him, was a bit shitty to be honest. He'll never reach the Champions League or probably win a trophy again for Leicester and they'll probably never get another offer of £60m for him.

He'll never reach the Champions League or probably win a trophy again for Leicester and they'll probably never get another offer of £60m for him.
But you cant have it both ways, he was happy to sign a 4/5 year contract, probably tripling his wages. If his form dipped the club would be forced to pay that, or if he got injured and was out for a season. I personally would have let Mahrez go as it wasnt the first occasion but it needs to be both ways
-
I think with Mahrez you keep him as long as you can, you can't replace him. leicester will still get a big fee next Jan if you really want to piss him off. I think £100m+ is not unreasonable and would likely be more achievable in summer.
He won them the title alright. I think you never really allow the best players to leave, they have release clauses or run down their contract so you're forced to take a price. Either that or start getting pictured with bongs and prostitutes or piss everyone off sufficiently to seek an exit. Things can change in 6 months and even if he sulks for a bit, he'll want to play at some point, between windows you have fresh if diminishing chance to renegotiate new contract, maybe give a release clause, 3/4 of the year is outside a transfer window.
Plenty of players have downed tools only to pick them back up not long after. And plenty of those have gone on to sign new contracts with existing club, it sometimes just needs more hope, new manager and a much bigger pile of money. Only clubs get to interact or negotiate directly with them on regular basis. Lukaku gave Koeman a chance to move us on and even when he hadn't, he still nearly signed. I think in January you're always going to get some very good players feeling the season is over, so you tend to get more strops.

Losing more faith in Moshiri by the day me.
I reckon this could even mean Sam stays next season.
I don't think Moshiri would want 4 managers on the payroll.

Who the fuck does the commercial negotiations at the club? Seriously if this was any other industry other than football, with the amounts of money involved, they would have an army of legal and contractual experts crawling all over the commercials of every aspect of the business. Maybe other clubs do it properly but we seem to scrimp at employing suitably qualified personnel in most areas of the business.

You'd think that at least the one thing Moshiri definitely gets right is accounting.

So the Dutch FA are deliberately underpaying Koeman in the knowledge that EFC will make up the shortfall. Maybe we should hire their advisors :-X

Who would do contract negotiations though, the chairman Kenwright, Contract Dave, the CEO Elstone or Moshiri the majority owner ?

How did no-one see this coming.

Well Martinez you could if being polite talk about being naive but then to do it again with the next manager then you have to use the word stupid....

That's Suntan's job isn't it? Being CEO and all
-
Koeman has signed a deal "up to and including the 2022 World Cup". I wonder what sort of clause is in there at the end of June 2019, when his Everton deal would have ran out. There's no way he'd then fall back onto such a low wage as those names mentioned. It seems naive from Everton, but I have no idea what is the norm in the world of premier league managerial contracts. Perhaps these clauses are common place?
-
Think it's pretty common in most cases, it's paid up until the end of contract, unless you take another job. But in both Martinez and Koeman's case, they took international jobs, which presumably doesn't stop compensation payments.
We sacked Martinez and hired Koeman before Martinez got Belgium job. So we hadn't been burned once, before we agreed terms in same manner.
-
Don't see the problem with it myself - not bother working and Everton pay 100% of the outstanding contract, as it is the Dutch FA are paying a little bit and us the rest - what ever the amount is will be a saving on what we owe him ?

It's true that we're paying less than if he remained unemployed. Still, it's good to fume.
On a seperate note I like that turn of phrase I just coined. Maybe we could replace "the people's club" with it?

Huh? He had more than a Ronald Koeman should ever have. The only thing we didn't give him was Sammy Lee.
He didn't succeed because he had crap ideas about how to play football* and crap taste in players.
* Defense first, lots of crossing in attack. Sound like anyone? Koeman is basically just Moyes/Allardyce with a stellar playing career to hide behind.

He wanted a striker and a left back for a start. Going into the season with an unbalanced squad killed him.
In hindsight I would have rather kept him than gone with what we have now.
I agree he wasn’t the answer but he was closer to it than fatso.
