TFG Freidkin Group have just received Premier League approval. takeover now expected to be completed next week! ( Sky)
1.) 13 Dec 2024 14:23:47
Dyche sacked for Xmas?
2.) 13 Dec 2024 16:28:17
I heard 22nd will be the day TFG take over. A merry Christmas on the way.
3.) 13 Dec 2024 16:32:22
Anything’s possible with the Americans, big changes ahead for sure!
30 Nov 2024 13:43:04
Sergio Conceicao now number 1 choice to be installed as new Everton manager according to many outlets. he is Freidkins choice once the takeover goes through, talks remain ongoing as the new manager seeks assurances about transfer money being available to him before taking the job! Hope this is true, his CV is very impressive albeit in Portugal.
1.) 30 Nov 2024 14:06:42
One thing i like about him is that when he took over Porto, they had not won the league for 4 seasons, which for them is long time. That shows he came in when things weren't great and turned it around, which is exactly what we need and quick.
2.) 30 Nov 2024 21:35:52
Quality manager first one to get me excited. Would still deem. it unlikely.
3.) 01 Dec 2024 15:23:36
Upset a few here, but not the time for a fancy foreigner manager, besides the squad ain’t good enough - not even Pep would get a tune out of this lot.
Back to basics. Get Moyes in. Will steady the ship. Then look for the fancy managers in time.
Regardless MASSIVE game now Wed - we need the 3 points. Just hope Goodison isn’t a library, it’s got to rock under the lights for us to have any chance. COYB.
4.) 01 Dec 2024 15:32:45
So just keep making the same mistakes again. Get someone in who keeps us up, then watch us struggle again the next season. Need to get away from this conveyor belt of mediocre managers.
5.) 01 Dec 2024 18:19:18
Agree Brass. We shouldn’t be looking for a manager to just keep us up - we need a manager who will improve us going forward. Moyes isn’t the answer. He would be a hugely unpopular choice amongst a large portion of our fanbase and wouldn’t take long for things to become toxic toward him. Would be a huge mistake. The usual slate of mediocre, firefighter managers should not be anyway near the list of potential future bosses.
6.) 01 Dec 2024 22:30:35
It should even be that complicated. Evidence of getting results, evidence of playing a decent style of footie and developing players. Done. Everyone would get behind that.
I don't personally mind moyes but, what's the point if half the fan base hates him.
Just some clubs including ours just seem to excell in picking incompetent people. Foreign or not is irrelevant, quality is all that matters.
7.) 03 Dec 2024 13:00:02
Short memories a lot of you have, new you manager coming up with bright new ideas, didn't we do this already , problem with new manager coming up they need a half decent team to apply there new attacking football, Moyes on the other hand could make a average player play well in a team, pluck good players from lower leagues, keep us in the top 10 nearly every season, but because I will say most, are septic, can't getover he chose man United and tried to buy our player, oh dear God, he wasnt the first and he won't be again, Moyes till the end of the season, then see how it goes from there, no fancy Dan is getting anything but the sack if they join Everton now, we are as bad as any team in the top league, we need a manager who knows the league and Moyes does.
8.) 03 Dec 2024 17:04:49
I think most on here have admitted we got big headed and demanded Silvas head far to impatiently because we thought we had an open cheque book and wanted to get to the CL now now now. Think the fan base will be a little more like the Fonze this time.
9.) 03 Dec 2024 17:21:30
Never works going back. Even Howard Kendall our best manager struggled.
Will have new owners, new ground and new manager.
10 Nov 2024 20:23:17
Rumours swirling that Friedkins men have been in discussions with Van Nistelroys representatives over the weekend in view of becoming of becoming Everton manager. can't see it personally, but who knows.
1.) 10 Nov 2024 22:01:32
Really? What’s he actually done? I think that would be madness.
2.) 10 Nov 2024 22:20:12
Nothing much apart from a cup. But then that's one more than Dyche. A risk in my opinion.
3.) 10 Nov 2024 23:06:04
He did okay with psv he developed few players such as brainthwaite and savio guy at city and won cup .
4.) 11 Nov 2024 08:35:09
Depends on the strategy doesn’t it?
I hope they go for someone that will progress youngsters moving forward. Watched the Barce game last night, over 30 players in the two squads from Spain.
5.) 11 Nov 2024 12:58:45
Can't please everyone. People on here say they want someone young and hungry, then when they get suggested it's too much if a risk. Then Moyes gets the tired and old treatment. We ain't getting pep.
6.) 11 Nov 2024 14:45:45
That's right FC89. Even some would be anti Pep. Some like dinosaur football and expect hard work and dogs of war and some like fast counter attacking football with skillful attacking players and others want a pure football where everyone is comfortable with the ball. Either way managers are what they are. The voice and face of a club, paraded out in front of the ownership for good or bad and where the buck stops. I'd have been more supportive of SD of he actually played the 442 (oh old fashioned and ironic to what you say FBS) he was rumoured to be an advocate for. Some think of your don't like Dino ball then you must want tikky tappy and that nothing in the middle exists. We need a new approach and whoever it's going to be had to win games and fans. As it always has been. I personally think there's a handful in the championship worth a punt. Hunger and work ethic is all I want to see from day 1. Oh actually I'd also like Carsley to interview for it too. We need to break the loop of "oh we only have agricultural players so must get a Dino coach to suit" absolute nonsense.
7.) 11 Nov 2024 16:51:21
I’d take him he’s done ok since eth left.
8.) 11 Nov 2024 17:11:48
Club need to remember what the badge stands for and start to move back towards that. Whether that be through the u18s and u21s, developing players to play football with confidence.
Agree that doesn't just mean tiki taki going nowhere football, but having the ability to play in several different ways. There has to be more than one tactic, and players need to be good enough to adapt to any situation.
All this starts with the manager, he sets the bar, and our current manager has shown what happens if you set the bar low.
Carsley is an interesting one. But I have read that De Zerbi is not to happy at Marseille at the minute. Would love us to get him.
9.) 11 Nov 2024 17:33:36
He’s also now just officially left Man U today after Amorims arrival, told he wouldn’t be part of his coaching set up, there could really be legs in this rumour!
10.) 11 Nov 2024 19:36:54
Think we need to complete the takeover first… do the Eds still think it will be in December or later?
{Ed025's Note - December seems the most likely to me BR..
11.) 11 Nov 2024 20:05:53
De Zerbi is an interesting option.
12.) 12 Nov 2024 12:18:22
De Zerbi, Van Nistelrooy Potter and Carsley all managers who have more than just one game plan
Then mentality of trying to keep it tight and steal a win is soul destroying to watch.
13.) 13 Nov 2024 21:17:10
Sebastian Hoeneß from Stuttgart, is another worth looking at prefers attacking team, that starts with a 442 pressing formation, that morphs in to 3124 when attacking using a double pivot midfield that splits the centrebacks and pushes in to link the attack. The fullbacks and wingers switch between there wing and attacking midfield roles depending on players ability, position, and opposition, when supporting the attackers. Most importantly he always plays twin strikers either 2 strikers spliting the opposing defenders with 1 coming short and the other running in behind, or a deep lying forward running on to the through balls from midfield and crossing wingers. Watch Stuttgart's 5-1 demolition of Dortmund, or fantastic win over Juventus in the Champions League. Chances of us getting him decent as ges lined up for Bayern job as Daddy is on the board, but needs experience of harder League.
15 Oct 2024 20:35:38
Tuchel is the new England manager according to Sky, sources in Germany stating he's signed an 18 month contract to be announced by the FA tomorrow!
1.) 15 Oct 2024 20:44:01
So that’s him not going utd hopefully they go all out for Southgate just incase tfg are hoping he says free for us.
2.) 15 Oct 2024 21:49:58
Actually, I was kind of hoping that we might go for Tuchel after the takeover as for me he was exactly the type and calibre of manager we should be going for to replace what we currently have, looks like we missed out on this occasion!
3.) 15 Oct 2024 22:08:29
Not sure we could afford him Elvis but he did seem to know what he was doing.
4.) 16 Oct 2024 19:49:25
I think fans would have warmed to Tuchel's erratic nature on the touchline and, that would have acted as a catalyst for plenty of noise.
26 Sep 2024 10:48:40
Fabrizio Romano stating this morning that Sarri is the managerial choice of Freidkin to replace Dyche.
{Ed002's Note - He is one of a number of coaches the Freiedkin Group has taken advice on - but come next week he may have another job.}
1.) 26 Sep 2024 11:30:50
Sarri was recently interviewed about whether he wanted to go back into management and his answer was “yes” hopefully by January …that would seem to tie in with our timeline of takeover as Friedkin hopes to here and in control by before Christmas…but we shall see.
2.) 26 Sep 2024 15:43:34
Well I believe that a number of things have to happen before we have a new manager. The takeover has to be completed. The potential new Manager has to want to manage Everton. Whoever the new owner wants has to be available. It may also depend on what results we get before the takeover is complete, if SD wins all of the games (unlikely) then he may hang on until the season ends.
One possibility is that Moshiri will agree to a management change before the takeover is complete. Not sure about the legalities of that happening.
{Ed002's Note - Obviously there is no legal issue if anything were to happen to the manager before the take over is completed.}
3.) 26 Sep 2024 16:35:51
OK thanks Ed002. So if Friedkin and Moshiri agree we could see a managerial change at any time?
{Ed002's Note - That is not how it works.}
4.) 26 Sep 2024 19:45:41
If by the end of the takeover Dyche has them playing and in a better position in the league (hopefully) . Then it would make sense to leave him in charge to the end of the season. Now i'm no Dyche fan, but changing halfway through the season with a manager who has a different style could be dangerous. So if things are going ok then leave him there.
Why? Because this would give the club time to get the next manager right. It would give the new man time to discuss targets and look at what he already has. And don't forget Dyche's contract runs out in the summer.
So new season, new ground, new owner, hopefully new start.
5.) 26 Sep 2024 21:09:52
Yes I agree BB but if we continue to lose games because SD insists on playing Young and Keane and making stupid substitutions that lead to losing points from a winning position then something will have to be done sooner. Maybe even the end of this year maybe too late. Still not sure what the options are for changing manager before the takeover is completed. Can't see Moshiri doing anything so we can only hope that the results start improving so no action is required. What's so galling is that we could have seven points instead of one with better management of the games played.
6.) 27 Sep 2024 10:02:33
Agree BM.
7.) 27 Sep 2024 11:40:56
Is he due a lobotomy or something?
Elvis48's banter posts with other poster's replies to Elvis48's banter posts
01 Dec 2024 21:18:53
On thing for sure, if the Freidkins had been in charge of our club already, SD would have been gone a long time ago! Unfortunately our current owners don't have the balls or finance to do it right now, so we assume that it's just a couple more weeks of this tosh to put up with before the change is made!
21 Nov 2024 20:50:31
Dyche has 2 games to save his job! If we lose to Man U and Brentford up next, the Friedkin group are likely to then be in as owners after these games and will pull the trigger upon their arrival!
1.) 22 Nov 2024 09:29:07
His job has already gone I think.
2.) 22 Nov 2024 12:16:16
Hope so.
3.) 22 Nov 2024 13:12:51
Same as that.
4.) 22 Nov 2024 19:30:58
It went last year for me but I got slated for being negative. Where would we be if we had got rid in summer?
5.) 22 Nov 2024 20:34:18
In Heaven I reckon mate.
17 Nov 2024 23:41:19
Carsley has proved his managerial pedigree already and done well as England stand in. he should definitely be on the list to replace SD, hearing that Van Nistelrooy is too with Mourinho - but can't see the latter happening.
1.) 18 Nov 2024 19:57:03
Mourinho was sacked by TFG when at Roma so cannot see that happening. I’d take a punt on Carsley, seems very level headed, not afraid to make big decisions and is tactically flexiable.
2.) 18 Nov 2024 22:13:28
His knowledge of the youths and u23 level players not just the English lads but all across Europe would be a valuable source too. I'm all for it but sadly I can't see it.
24 Sep 2024 22:57:00
I see Peps contract at City is up in the summer. Mayb if they get thrown out of the premier league or incur a massive points reduction during their premier league hearings he might walk away from them and walk in the direction of Bramley Moore Docks new wonderful stadium to take on what is now a great new project for someone under hopefully much better ownership . just dreaming really, but you never know . nil saris nisi optimum?.
1.) 25 Sep 2024 06:17:47
Don’t see City getting chucked out or massive points deduction; they will squirm their way out if it.
Don’t see Pep leaving them for another English club.
Don’t see us getting anyone of that calibre in to manage us.
We are likely going to end up with someone out of work who will not cost much. I reckon it will be either Potter, Moyes or Southgate.
2.) 25 Sep 2024 16:25:39
Well let’s hope your wrong BR.
3.) 25 Sep 2024 20:19:07
I hope I am.
4.) 27 Sep 2024 16:12:03
City are Teflon and it’s already been said a decision will probably not be made until after this season now as the court takes three months starting January but then they have to make their minds up which could take another 3 months, I reckon a 5-10 point deduction beggining of next season and maybe a transfer ban.
23 Sep 2024 20:22:15
I can see a whole big clear out of the club from the inside coming up soon once Friedkin has control. Dyche and Thelwell will all be gone I think as the new owner will want to make a success of things which is so far away from where we've been for many years now!
1.) 23 Sep 2024 20:44:16
Don't see them thelwell going anywhere, think with the right owner and manager he is good enough. I do now think we should look at Potter, I'm ok with Moyes also.
Branthwaite will make a difference obvs, I also expect Patterson to be a positive at rb.
With current players we may need to play 3 at back, however there isn't a out n out lwb option really, maybe Harrison?
3511
Pickford
O'brien
Tarks
Branthwaite
Patts rwb
Garner
Tim
McNeil
Harrison lwb
Ndiaye
DCL.
2.) 23 Sep 2024 21:10:52
Seriously bunkbeds? You would have that team with moyes, and thelwell ? Jesus Christ.
3.) 23 Sep 2024 21:19:29
Yes. Pick a better team.
4.) 24 Sep 2024 08:41:58
easy bunkbeds, easy even if your doing it as a 3back
pickford
O'Brien
Tark
Branthwaite
Patterson RWB
Douc/ Gana
Mangala
Garner/ Tim
McNeil LWB
Lindstrom
Ndiaye (2 inside tens behind the ST)
DCL.
5.) 24 Sep 2024 09:49:00
Lindstrom has to play ahead of Harrison. Given time him and Ndiaye will become crucial to our attacking ambition.
6.) 24 Sep 2024 10:22:35
Looks like 12 in that side wblue2.
7.) 24 Sep 2024 10:40:41
You might be right wblue2, 12 players is probably better.
13 Dec 2024 16:32:22
Anything’s possible with the Americans, big changes ahead for sure!
11 Nov 2024 17:33:36
He’s also now just officially left Man U today after Amorims arrival, told he wouldn’t be part of his coaching set up, there could really be legs in this rumour!

11 Oct 2024 11:26:27
Can Bronckhurst has 57% win record as manager, that’s a lot higher than what we currently have, all be it in lesser leagues. There’s been rumours of Mourinho too…can’t see it personally as he fell out with Friedkin when sacked at saying many nasty things…although strangely I think he could be a good fit for us!
09 Oct 2024 13:21:28
Let’s hope so.
09 Dec 2024 13:21:50
Yes Ariola is a good choice for me, has proved it now already at this level, Eddie Howe too I think is a good choice and being an Evertonian and with his style of football you just never what he could do here at the new stadium…could be the perfect match actually!
02 Nov 2024 16:46:54
Don’t worry, only another 3/ 4 weeks of this tosh and he’ll be gone ones the new owners turn up. Southampton just score and go 1-0 too as I’m writing this!
15 Oct 2024 21:52:03
We/ EFC should of been going for the likes and calibre of Tuchel not Carsley! As usual we missed out.
14 Sep 2024 19:46:30
Couldn’t agree more! ?.
14 Sep 2024 19:32:31
Nothing will happen until the new owner arrives unfortunately. It would just be so Everton to actually go and get relegated the last season before they are due to play in their new stadium! 4 straight defeats now! Any other manager would be fired in the same circumstances.
