Dont shoot me down for a reliability but Everton That saying Fonseca will takeover at end of the season, they seem to get the team right each week and the signing of new players. If it's true then I think this a really ambitious move from the club and makes me as a fan really excited. Hopefully as whole fan base most will be excited too. Another manager like Howe with a philosophy, somethint that could be implemented through all levels. Might finally be able to put this season behind us.

{Ed025's Note - lets hope so joe..

To be fair Joe, I heard the same myself this morning off an agent I know. He’s been pretty reliable in the past (Rooney, before even the papers/ news had it) and he told me that Fonseca will come in the summer.

28 Feb 2018 21:06:59
Seen before Pierre, probably better sources than Jim White pal.

Let's hope the rumours on Fonseca are right. More importantly let's hope we move quickly and make the appointment as soon as possible. Just been reading Sam's comments in the Echo re Klassen. Trying every day in training but just not good enough - what sort of man management is that. nobody deserves that, especially someone who is supposedly putting the effort in. I was happy to see him come to Everton - now I am ashamed of the treatment he has been given.

This is the guy who has bossed games against some of the best teams in Europe.

45 appearances in the champs or europa league and 11 goals and he is deemed not good enough for a place on the bench in the prem.
its not even as though we have anyone else on the bench like him.

This just smacks of the Niasse debacle.
surely it is upto the coaching staff to prep him for the Premier league?

01 Mar 2018 15:10:29
Luckily for Klassen he will not have to put up with Bovril after the summer.

02 Mar 2018 02:25:02
And yet we have Scheiderlin who gets kicked out of training, still gets picked and continues to display lack of effort and poor form. What the hell is up with our club?

28 Feb 2018 15:15:56
Hey Ed 025 what's your take on these reports that Big Sam wants to send Cesk Tosun back to Besiltas on loan as he doesn't feel he is good enough for the premiership, and that Mr Moshiri is now becoming increasingly unhappy with him for spending £27 million only not not to play him, also rumblings of disquiet about our present manager, surely if true it will result in Big Sam and others in getting the axe, if this is true I can see some big changes at Everton this summer in playing and back room staff, cheers mate.

{Ed025's Note - im not sure how true them rumours are GB, but if it means us getting a new head coach then im prepared to believe anything mate..

28 Feb 2018 19:19:27
I now read that if we had Enrique he would command a fee of £317,000 per week the mind boggles eh mate.

28 Feb 2018 22:19:38
I read about the Tosun thing too GB but like the source I too think it's journalistic bs. If what Sam said is true then he should go back to where he came from as he's not good enough to manage in the PL 😜.

28 Feb 2018 23:11:42
Just pay him what he wants GB. If we can get a manager of that calibre and have ambition then pay him.
Sandro and Schneiderlin on 100 grand a week, sell them and get him in.

28 Feb 2018 13:36:13
Marcel Brands name being banded about by the rags again, him and Fonesca would do me.

28 Feb 2018 17:37:37
I got to be honest, I don't really know much about Fonseca. Looked him up on line and he doesn't seem to stay more than a season at places. Wouldn't we want someone who could GUARANTEE us a 5 year mission (results provided of course)

28 Feb 2018 18:37:03
Anybody come to mind then mate.

28 Feb 2018 19:52:50
Sean Dyche. Building a club at Burnley. No reason why he can't build one at Everton.

28 Feb 2018 20:07:56
Whoever it is mate will have to be for the long term.

28 Feb 2018 12:11:01
I think we are going to look back at this coming summer as a defining moment in Evertons history.
Mistakes have been made, lessons learnt.

28 Feb 2018 17:38:22
Here's hoping Smit.

28 Feb 2018 18:23:11
Smit, I bloomin well hope so mate but not holding my breath. The term root and branch is often used in the same sentence as failure. In our case root and branch clearout is very very real indeed. Does Mr Moshri have the advisors around and behind him though that is the real question. We shall see.

28 Feb 2018 19:53:53
Moshiri is not a footballing man.

28 Feb 2018 10:49:18
Anyone else starting to think Mr Moshiri is away with the fairies?

Fonseca, Simeone and Enrique is his shortlist to replace SA in the summer. there ambition and then their is dreamland.

Surely the man should be getting better advise or is he just doing what he wants?

28 Feb 2018 11:11:41
Lets see what happens before making any judgment. Mosiri is very ambitious and has made a lot of money from his businesses but is a little nieve when it comes to football matters. Hopefully he will get some good advice before choosing a manager and hopefully his money will convince someone good to take us on as a project.

28 Feb 2018 12:33:22
who would have thought Newcastle would get rafa even tho he was on decline always better jobs available. if there no opening for them managers in the English league the next best team is us? fonseca wanted the move in November but shaktar blocked it so that's a serious candidate believe it or not the English league and money attracts big names this includes managers.

28 Feb 2018 12:41:45
Can you imagine if these weren’t on his shortlist. We’d all be roasting him right now.

28 Feb 2018 17:46:37
its the Premiership biggest league there is. Most top managers want to be here, and we are still the best of the rest with money to spend. Quite an attractive draw I would have thought.

28 Feb 2018 18:55:28
Top players and really good managers are going to crap league like China for stupid money so if moshiri offered simioni stupid money I seriously think that he would mull it over.
