EPL 20/21

Good manager who'll inevitably be sacked within two years after a promising first transitional season before it all becomes stale when the team fails to progress in the next one.

£200m will be spent.

No trophies will be won.

Yet another side will emerge that is more exciting/successful than Everton.

Spurs after Gattuso now after talks with Fonseca broke down. 🤣 Shambles.

They'll probably end up with Ange Postecoglou.

The comparison with Celtic's shambles is spot on. Gattuso would be a terrible appointment, as bad a Pirlo who was also linked with the job.

Gattuso's agent is Jorge Mendes. His clients include Mourinho and Nuno Espirito Santo. Gattuso has just walked on Fiorentina after 23 days because they would not sign Mendes's recommendations, i.e. his clients.

Spurs should learn from how much Wolves  wasted on Mendes's clients.

Everton are just as bad.

Rafa Benitez rumoured to be joining Everton tonight. He loves making some bizarre career choices.

Benitez still lives on the Wirral with his family. Everton paid Ancelotti a huge wage and Rafa will get a big deal too.

it's a logical, not bizarre, choice for Benitez but a lot of Everton fans still hate him.

So they could yet end up with Nuno Espirito Santo. Even more dosh for Mendes and clients!

I've no idea what is going on. An approach of publicly courting managers and then failing to get them is just bizarre.

Whoever gets it knows they're 5th or 6th choice at this point.

The main problems in managerial appointments are agents' financial demands for their clients and themselves.  They now want to be involved in recruitment, e.g. Mendes, and get more huge commissions.

Mendes tried hard (and failed) to get the Spurs job for Nuno Espirito Santo. He then got another client, Paulo Fonseca, in for the Spurs. but hat deal collapsed .

Mendes did not get his way at Fiorentina so Gattuso walked  out of that job. He  has now  got Gattuso in for the Spurs job. Jose Mourinho was a Mendes client for many years.

It's  crazy!

Didn't realise he was involved with all 4 of them!

Looks like he is signing a year long loan deal at Norwich. 

I think it is a great move for him. He will hopefully get lots of game time and the style of football Farke plays should suit Billy.

The lad is good n all but do we really need another thread for every time he farts?
