sad to see anyone lose a job before xmas, but he simply has to go. no idea who will take the job on, but we need a strong manager to kick some arse and put us back in a healthy league position, keep him even for a few weeks and we may be to late to recover.

Don't be to sorry I'm sure his package will cover the Turkey and port for the big day!

How many Millions is he on and compensation he will getting, phew hard life!
05 Dec 2019 14:18:22
Very true Cookie and I bet it will be a relief for him in some ways, it’s us supporters I feel sorry for going from top six challengers to fighting for survival!
05 Dec 2019 14:40:42
ahahaha sad to see anyone lose his job, yes if he was struggling for cash, he'll get millions in pounds in pay off!

The cost of relegation is higher than paying him off. For me Brandts can go to. End this project and start again.

He will be in warmer Portugal for winter and not in freezing Merseyside so won’t be using his payoff for heating.

I like how you get your next target in early dc, now that Silva is on his way out, Brands it is then.

Has it been announced that Silva has gone or just sharpening the knives for Brands early DC?
To be fair I thought the Brands project was being held back by these advisors that Ed002 mentions.
{Ed002's Note - Silva has gone subject to the settlement being agreed. The advisors belong to Mr Moshiri and are used in a wide range of roles, and many clubs use advisors. Brand' skillset is in building a culture from youth through to the first team and bringing in coaches that can support that (a la PSV, Ajax etc.). Sadly the Everton owner (and supporters) are demanding success pretty much instantly so that is what is disrupting a bigger plan.}

Agree with ed002. The Brand's project makes me optimistic, there seems to be some sense to it but the owners' advisors make me pessimistic.
It's hard to work out what are Brand's choices and what are the advisors' and what are the manager's.
For example:
I don't think Silva was Brand's choice but some claim he was.
I wonder about Moise Kean. Is he a bad purchase or just hasn't been given the chance?
Why wasn't Bemingame played in defensive midfield to fill the gap there, he was playing there a couple of seasons ago and looked more solid
than Davies or Schneiderlin.
{Ed002's Note - Kean is looking for a way out.}
