The problem with Everton's style of play is that the defenders always look like Rabbits in the headlights when they get the ball and hoof it and invite pressure back on the team. It's not a prospect I am warming to despite all the glowing recommendations we are hearing on youth development etc etc.

He's a good, solid manager but offers very little else.
The League has been stale for a long time in my opinion and needs big new ideas. You have Arsenal and Manchester United who have had the same managers for 15+ years at least, I think both would benefit from a new, young manager with ambition and creativity who could freshen two clubs stale clubs up.
The only other 'big' (and I use that term lightly as I don't feel they're bit, more apt would be successful) is Chelsea, and Chelsea have no identity as a club so meh, I'm not bothered what they do.
This summer could turn out to be huge summers for all three though.
Laurent Blanc, Klopp or Frank de Boer would all be on my list.
(also; El Diego)

Really? Baines, Coleman, and Jagielka are reasonably good footballers. Anyway, is that not more down to the quality of centre back that Everton can afford? With more money, Moyes could buy defenders who can pass...
Err...who is el Diego? I assume you don't mean Maradona (or Forlan!)?
I don't quite understand why having someone who you could rely on to stay for a number of years is the number one priority. If we stop winning anything for a few years we will lose huge amounts of money and the ability to attract the best players in the world. As long as you are winning things there is no real reason for a manager to leave the club unless they have a falling out.
That's because training is done. All business as usual so far...
Indeed, I'm not sure why people think Jose will definitely leave after 3 years. He might well stay.
Is not a Champions League game though, pedantically or otherwise...It is a Qualifier to enable a team to get to the Champions League proper. So Moyes doesn't have experience of the Champions League as he never qualified to compete.
Because nothing in his very successful track record has so far shown otherwise. If/when he leaves Madrid this season, it'll be the first time he's left a club without having won the title or CL that year.
SSN are going to follow him around tescos and document him buying toilet paper it seems...
Yes, but he might stay. It's not definite he'd leave after 3 years.
I wasn't being 100% serious.
No, but the point is that nobody knows that - I imagine that even Mourinho doesn't know whether he'd stay for a long time or not. Is that a risk that the Utd board is willing to take? In saying that they want somebody for a long time, and not a "hired gun", they're implying that it isn't.
Same car, or same type of car? My web developer drives a black S Class, doesn't mean he works for Man Utd too!
