Where does adkins fit into all this

he is, after all, the next great english manager and new 'fergie'

 

What a load of tripe that turned out to be eh.

He's just in the pay off places as it stands......ask some Reading fans and many think he has underachieved with what he has at his disposal.atleast they have not been hoodwinked like many on here.

If by some miracle Reading go up....he will be gone again..back to the lower leagues and obscurity.

 

Just like here,he did the bare minimum with an excellent squad.

Its indeed evidence of the discord that the Everton fans felt during his tenure. They were sick of his negative football amongst other reasons.

 

But hey, they are all wrong, he's a great manager that brings success everywhere he goes with his superior tactics and man management.

 

Just look at the sheer amount of records he managed to break whilst at Man U and just look how badly Everton have struggled since he left.

 

Opinions hey.

 

I never claimed he was a proponent of free-flowing attractive football. He got results. I also never said he had the support of all fans. This is not evidence he is a bad manager, these are opinions of some fans - not all. Look on here, some dislike MP and his style. Utterly ridiculous, if you ask me, but they still exist.

 

Is it not a sign of a good job that after 11 years, a manager was able to come in and carry on the good work? It shows no major rebuild was needed. If Moyes was so poor, why is Martinez being so highly praised for getting Everton to finish a likely 5th, when Moyes did that twice, got a 4th place finish once and the majority of his other seasons finished 6th-8th. Awful.

 

No one is saying he did a good job at utd, he clearly didn't and he deserved to be sacked. If a bad 10 month spell is more of an indicator of someones abilities that an 11 year spell, then yes he is terrible. Probably not a top or great manager. But to say he is awful is just plain wrong.

 

He did a very good job at Everton. Some fans were fed up as they felt he had plateaued, but considering he had his hands tied by funding, he was never likely to be banging the door down for top 4 on a regular basis anyway.

Its an opinion.

 

I don't rate him, as many don't. There isn't a single shred of evidence that suggests he's a good manager, only an average one.

 

I'm more than happy for others to over rate him though, just as long as he doesn't end up here.

 

http://www.sos1878.co.uk/everton-fans/an-open-letter-to-david-moyes/ :lol:

 

If Moyes is an average manager, that would make Pochettino an effing dreadful one.

 

The knee - jerk Sky sports "ohh he's so terrible" reaction has been a complete joke. Top 6/7 season in, season out is far from average.

I don't see why this is a negative thread?! I am asking a simple, hypothetical question about a situation that I believe could arise over the Summer. For some reason a number of people have decided that the only response to this is to throw insults. For shame.

How can something be 'possibly quite likely'? Blatant trolling by the OP IMHO.

 

Moyes can only come here if he brings De Gea, Baines and Wellbeck with him; other than that it's a 'no' from me.

 

Trolling? Seriously? Because in my opinion it is something that could happen over the Summer?

Everton finishes in the last 20 years. Moyes joined in 2002, done on a relative shoestring. "not a shred of evidence hes a good manager" :lol:

Nope, Martinez is a superb manager. Taking a team regularly finishing 5th-8th and making them finish, 5th. :adore:

 

 

For the record I do actually think Martinez is doing a good job, and is indeed a good manager.

Yup, nothing to do with Moyse then. Cheers.

Also, no mention of what they have received. I'd imagine in most transfer windows Moyes net spend was negative. He had to sell, to buy. Often, the players sold were at a huge profit too.

Moyes is very good but he would be an awful fit for Southampton. It isn't even worth thinking about, not least because his next job probably won't be in England.

1 bad season and he is damaged goods

yet adkins was hailed the great fergie for his bad season in the prem and should have stayed for 5 years???

Can't see Mopo going to Man Utd. Finishing 8th isn't exactly a massive achievement, at least not criteria for taking over one of the biggest clubs in the world.

 

And personally I would not want to see Moyes here as our manager. I don't think his style fits with ours. He had some good seasons with Everton but I don't think it is coincidence that the first season he is gone they are having their best PL season.

Martinez seems to have got an extra gear out of Coleman and it's probably been years since they had a striker like Lukaku.

Seem to remember scoring goals was always one of their biggest problems, could be wrong.

well we would have a lot of games where we were bored to death, the players would not enjoy it either

 

I agree, I was on the point of giving up my ticket under Strachan. I pray that we do not go back to that attritional style

So David Moyes is responsible for ten seasons of Everton spending before he even joined?

 

You're playing a blinder with your "shreds of evidence" you really are.

 

More irrelevance from yourself.

 

It proves that far from being a shoestring club Everton have invested quite heavily during the Premiership years.

 

Just because someone told you Moyse was good, doesn't make it true.

 

'Oh but he kept Everton in the top 10!'

 

Great, a team that is the 9th heaviest spender in Premiership History. :lol:

 

Average.

How is this their best season? They finished 5th (their current position) twice under Moyes, and 4th as well. They are in the ball park where Moyes kept them for most of his tenure.

 

Granted, they are doing it playing better football.

I cant see Pochettino going there either, he is not good enough yet and fails to meet their expected criteria of winning domestically, in Europe and has been successful in the very best of the players in the World transfers, in fact Pochettino is so far off going there Neil Armstong was closer to the appointment when he was on the moon.

Newcastle spent £170m more, are lower now than Moyes finished in the last 8 years and have been relegated in the same period.

 

SUnderland are bottom and have also been relegated during Moyes tenure at Everton and have spent about the same at them.

 

"Not a shred of evidence to prove he's a good manager" :lol:

Still not found any then.

 

Other than turning a team with no top half finishes for 10 years into one that has top 8 finishes for 9 out of 11 years with a net spend of £12m, spending £170m less than Newcastle and the same as Sunderland and not being relegated, qualifying for the champions leauge, cup finals, buying players like Joleen Lescott and Micheal Arteta and selling them for four time what he paid for them, no.

Posted
I think David Moyes will want a rest after this disappointment.

Nonsense. He'll be looking for a new job just as soon as he's finished counting his compensation pay-off, sometime in 2017.

How many posters was that by then Jamie? Was it one or two posters that you're obsessing over with this quote? I'm going to guess at one. if we look at your history though, I seem to remember you calling Adkins a legend and saying that MP would definitely take us down in his first season...

Lets hope he lives up to the billing THIS time, hey.
