Lets look at the possible managers we could go for
Fonseca done well in a poor league has no prem experience as player or manager would be a huge gamble
Eddie Howe nowhere near a big enough name saying you once supported us is not enough has already shown he is a southern softie lower level prem or championship manager at best
Rafa WTF do not want this man anywhere near Everton imagine he lost his first 5 games he would be crucified and we would be back to square one
Arteta an ex blue knows the club and chairman the fans would back him has learnt from top managers and will definitely be in the running for jobs around Europe my first choice
Unsworth let's be real never been invited into a it all about himself and made major mistakes not good enough
Is there any other realistic targets I've missed then someone tell me.

You dismiss Fonseca as he has no Prem experience and then name Arteta as your choice, who not only has no Prem manergerial experience but has no experience managing at all! Number 2's generally don't make good number ones and that is why they remain as assistants.
Rafa is the choice based on what he has achieved in his managerial career and also the fact he has an abundance of Prem experience, something you seem to think hinders Fonseca.
Poch had no Prem experience, Guardiola had no Prem experience, Mourinho when he first came had no Prem experience and managed in a poor league, doesn't seem to have hindered any of them.

Guadiola and mourinho had both won the champions league before coming here poch done well with a average team in Spain and inherited a good squad s at Southampton and spurs iam not saying fonseca is not worth a punt but if we're going to take a gamble then let's give one of our own ago which rules out the fat Spanish waiter also tailing about number 2s wasn't mourhinio the translater.

So you read Arteta in the rags this morning and install him as your 3rd choice, after dismissing a guy who is smashing it in the CL. Due to no Premier League experience?

I just can't see how Arteta could come in and change the mentality in the dressing room, which judging by performances there clearly is an issue. We need a man to come in say 'right I have faith in you, you, your rubbish so are going' and play the best team regardless of age. We have some talented youngsters and they need a manager who will nurture the talent on a long term basis. I don't know much about Fonseca so can't really have an opinion of whether or not he is the man, he has had success and has a style he likes, which we seem to be missing massively. We need a new identity and to finally move forward, we need the Martinez attacking style mixed in with the Moyes fight and grit. One things for certain, the next managerial appointment needs to be the correct one, we need a long term appointment with a long term plan. I can accept transition and some bumps along the way as long as we see the lads trying and not moving away from the identity the manager has installed in them. Come on Everton, let's stop the laughing from across the park and let 2018 be the start of the next generation.

fonseca who is doing well in the champions league and also had a spell in the portugese league (shows he has adapted to two different leagues) knows what European football is and how to play it, but we don't want him oh righty then.
