Malinga the Swinga Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Mediocre match between two mediocre sides featuring mediocre players being paid wages that very very few of them deserve. Everton somehow believe they are a big club that deserve better, despite being shit for years, whilst Wolves fit perfectly into description of mid table with no ambition beyond staying in league. Better coverage and hype, but absolutely no substance or quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon the Everton board wanted to cut back and bring in a manager who hasn’t really spent money in football and Rafa was there man. Another couple of defeats and they will be wanting him sacked.

They both need new players just as much as a top manager. Tottenham maybe abit harsh with the sacking. I think he needed his own players in whether he was going to do well or not. No idea what they are up to apart from maybe thinking Conte is a bigger influence to bring the players they want in. Going by media reports Conte didn't go to Tottenham in summer because the transfer budget was too low (why he supposedly left Inter Milan). But is coming to Tottenham now because Levy has promised a big transfer budget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club is full of individual footballers who they spent millions on. They have won nothing since 1995 and the fans think they are some sort of powerhouse in English football. They need a massive clear out and start again. There is players from Ancelotti, Silva, Allardyce, Koeman days still about millions spent on them. I was surprised they gave Rafa the job Eddie Howe was out of work when they appointed him would of been a better option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a hard time to be bringing in a manager, They either bring in a manager till the end of the season and hope to avoid relegation or go all out and bring in someone who they see in the job for a few years and get money to spend. It will take years for them to become a top 6 side. They won't do it in the next 3/5 years. Its all very well they have billionaire owners but will players want to go and play for Newcastle and the clubs Newcastle will be approaching to sign players from will be adding 20% 30% onto their asking prices.

Young manager, enough experience at the top. Good fit. Newcastle United’s new owners have identified Arsenal outcast Matteo Guendouzi as a potential transfer target and are close to appointing Eddie Howe as their new manager, according to reports. French midfielder Guendouzi has made 82 appearances for the Gunners but it appears as though his Arsenal career is over following two loan spells away from the Emirates. Guendouzi . The guy is unbelievably shit. That would be a bad start for a signing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, the second appointment is big one. They'll sack whoever takes job as soon as they can get a so called big name. As long as Howe or anyone taking job has clause saying if sacked, they get all contract paid up. Howe better watch out if he's called to private meeting if he does take job and they go down.

I wonder if he has always been there and the owners were happy to offer him the job but wanted to try every way possible to get a bigger name in and they rejected them so will go back to Howe. Howe wont be arsed 3 years contract will be sacked after 2 and a massive pay off no doubt in his back pocket, He will walk into another job after it.
