Great player. Lousy manager.
Sean Dyche is expected to be named as Everton's new manager, succeeding the sacked Frank Lampard.
Dyche and former Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa were the two main contenders after holding talks with Everton's hierarchy.
Bielsa was initially understood to be the favoured choice of owner Farhad Moshiri but the former Burnley boss is now in pole position.
The Toffees want their new manager in place before the weekend.

I took a punt on Dyche becoming the new manager, I think he's something like 1/50 on now. Personally it's a good fit. Even if they take the drop I'm sure they'll bounce straight back at the first attempt.
Here's a little side bet for you, although Burnley and Sheff Utd are in commanding positions to get automatic promotion to the Premier League try a fiver on Sunderland. At 16/1 their great value to win promotion via the play-offs.
The signing of Gelhardt will make a huge difference

Bielsa always needs a preseason to prepare the squad.
If Dyche performs poorly, i reckon Bielsa takes over in the off season regardless of the division their in.

Do you not think Biela's demands on players in the Prem are all abit too much ?. You can press and run till your heart is bursting out your chest and win games that way in the Championship against a lesser quality of player quite easily but in the Prem good teams will pass through you or hang on till your legs have gone then hit you which is why he was eventually sacked
Bigger squads in the Prem so they get more rest.
Give Bielsa a top 6 team he wins stuff imo. Give him a championship squad in the Prem he will burn them out eventually. Don't forget he got them to 9th in the first season back, his methods were not sustainable with our squad depth.
Maybe looserpool might try and hijack him before everton sign him?

Possibly right but why hadn't a big top 4-6 club throughout Europe took him on before Leeds?.
A top 4-6 club would suffer the same burn out and injury pile up as Leeds did and that's probably why he probably never got an elite managerial role.
Before coming to Leeds, (let's not forget he was in around 63-64 years old when he arrived in England) he had a massive reputation but he'd won hardly anything bar a couple of titles 30 odd years ago, tbh, I'd not heard of him
Look I'm not here to slag off a Leeds legend. What he did at Leeds was a miracle but my point is, getting players and expensive ones to over train 24/7 wasn't the answer.
I think even at an Utd or Liverpool with their huge squads they'd have to hire a few more physios to cope.
I watched Leeds before his sacking, he chopped changed players tactics the lot but when your players are f##ked their f##ked and when your body says no that's it fatigue and injuries work hand in hand and that's what kind happened to him.
You know what mate your quick to belittle Leeds and Bielsa. Yet you are not prepared to divulged the team you support.
I dont get involved in the football threads prefer actually going to watch my team and speak with like minded fans.
I'll stay out of em in future.

Belittle ?? Wtf you on about I actually praised him for his job as Leeds I just reckon he's not top draw and his track record proves that.
horses for courses and I personally don't think his methods work in the long run
