So how does this appointment work then? If he improves them in any way then he’s shown that he’ll be off like a shot the moment anything remotely bigger comes along. And there’s quite a lot that he’ll consider to be bigger than Everton.
If he doesn’t improve them then he’ll be out on his ear Oct/Nov 2019 at the latest.
He’s managed about 150 games, in total, at his last four clubs. “Long term appointment” indeed.
