If I was looking for the next everton manager, I'd see how resistant forest were if I enquired about Steve Cooper, I know he's got liverpool connections, but I think he's an impressive coach.
 
Potter has another four or five years where all he needs to do is avoid relegation and take the occasional point off Palace. His problems will start when the club are established in the PL and fans want to progress. - See Charlton Athletic.
He'd be expected to achieve more at Everton, and in a shorter timescale. And he'd have less influence in the running of the clubs than he has at Brighton.
 
Potter is a good manager but he would need a lot of time and transfer windows to turn them round.
Everton may be suffering from the same problem that plagues the rags, namely their owner and the board are focussed on something other than football excellence.
In the rags case it is personal enrichment that is the goal. But in Everton's, I am at a loss to work out just what their owner wants. He took control in murky circumstances and has spent a lot of money, but where is the strategy? What is the vision? Are they banking on the new stadium transforming the club?
Anyone got a clue?
 
Weren’t Everton destined for world domination a few years ago when they got taken over?

I was led to believe that money always = instant success.
Looking at Everton shows what a good job our owners and Mancini did in the early years of our take over. To take us from a club without a trophy for 30 plus years and plenty of relegations to winning the PL in 4 years was no mean achievement
 
Just speaking to an evertonian colleague, he's hoping for big Dunc till the end of the season to get to them safe, and then mancini after the world cup.

When i pointed out that the world cup isn't in summer this time around I could visibly see the hard place they're in via his face... There's nobody he can identify who will impose a style of play and identity to Everton FC. Lampard? Wazzock? Allardyce again? Nobody screams "I can sort it out".

Getting that person, and fitting what they already have on the playing side into his methods so more money doesn't need to be spent, is the issue. I think personally Mancini is a great shout, but he won't walk away in a world cup year.
 
Lots of clamour from the usual media wankers to give it to Rooney, 5 minutes experience in the championship and that qualifies you to go head to head with pep, klopp et Al? It would be OLE X 2 and we all know how it will end.
They should go for potter z plays football and has cut his teeth in the prem.
 
not one mention of Dyche unless ive missed it, but i think he'll jump at the chance and be a good fit
I don't know what relationship Dyche has with Burnley's new owners but I guess he is not pleased about the debt they have imposed on the club thru a leveraged buy out. If they go down, they will struggle to get back, so Dyche may well look for pastures new.
Everton could do a lot worse, but they would have to wait for the end of the season to get Dyche.
