 Welcome to Toffy TV, it has been announced. Carlo Anciolotti is the new Everton manager. Where's that? I didn't think I'd be saying, I'll be honest. Steve, Carlo Anciolotti, Everton manager. Crazy. Sounds a bit mad like it. It was saying, I imagined saying that four or five years ago that he was going to become Everton manager. It's a massive name. His CV is no better out there, really. Four European Cups, one Leagues everywhere. He's gone apart from Napoli. He was the only one he hasn't won it off, but he done pretty well at Napoli when he was there, done a really good job. He's the name machine he wanted, the Hollywood name. So I'm excited, also cautiously, due to what we've had the last couple of years. But I think if he can bring half of the stuff that he's done in his career to Everton, we're in for a positive effect, I reckon. Yeah, I mean, listen, he's managed some of the biggest clubs in the world. And he's had varying degrees of success, Champions Leagues, League Titles, Cups. Obviously won the double in England with Chelsea when he was in Africa. And Charity Shield finished running up the second season and was then sacked at Everton, ironically. And a name that a lot of people have a lot of respect for, a name that some journalists were telling us even a few days ago that there was no chance or very little chance it was going to happen and stuff like that. And so, you'd have to say, it is a massive statement of intent by far at Meshiri. Marcel Brand has given his approval to it as well, so that's always good. And you'd like to think that in Carlo Ancelotti you're going to have someone who is the face of the football club who can just be that calm voice taking the team forward, taking the club forward and allowing. I suppose things with the stadium now to be almost background news. Marcel Brand's doing his job in the knowledge that there's a safe pair of hands at the front of the club. Cos I think we've said this before with Marco Silva, as good a coach as he was in terms of guiding the club as the face of it. I just don't think he was big enough present. I don't think he was a good coach cos I've said that on here. I quite liked Marco, he had to go the right time for him to leave. But I think as a coach, lots of positive stuff up around his methods and stuff. Match day, he wasn't as good obviously. But just as a character anyway, regardless of even that, as a character, was he big enough to face whatever and the facing at the moment? Probably not. But this fella has been there, done it, hasn't he saw it like you said this, he's got a glitter in the CV. And I think with Ancelotti as well, he'll demand a lot from the people above now as well, not just the team like this man. He's worked with some of the best players the world's ever seen, Cacar, Ronaldinho, all those type of players. I think he'll be putting a lot of pressure on this board now to put up or shut up type of attitude cos he's coming in, he's kind of putting his reputation on the line really now by coming to have it I think. Because he's coming with this glitter in CV, he's won the European Cups, he's won every league's gone to par from Napoli and I feel like he's going to be one of those managers, if he doesn't get what he wants, that's when you might start to hear a few cracks in it. But I think him as a manager, how can you not, from the player's point of view, you're working with one of the best managers of all time, how can you not have respect for the man? Do you know me? I know the players allegedly like silver, but there's a difference in liking someone and respecting someone, and I think with Ancelotti I just think he'll lift the club's profile so much as well. Worldwide and Evan might have taken it serious cos I've seen a lot of rubbish during this whole process about why I can't believe Evan are getting this manager, Evan don't deserve a manager like this, with a sixth, fourth most successful team in England, why can't we go for the best man? I think it's a great appointment and I think he might, I know people before have mentioned Benitez and other managers like that, but I think this man are coming in and steady the ship for a couple of years hopefully and get us challenging up there cos that's where he deserved to be as fans and I think his reputation is on the line as well. We've made the wrong choices haven't we, let's be honest, since David Moy's left, Martin has come in and for me that wasn't the right choice at the time, but we had a great first season and he went to the level I thought he'd go to, and taking managers from Wigan, Southampton, Wofford, clubs like that, we just haven't made it, certainly since the money coming to the club which should have helped us get better. We haven't had the right choices and me and Perth have often said on the areas that you're paying players a lot of money, but why wouldn't you go and get a top top manager and this fella you've just said, you can't really argue with the CVs on everything, so you'd like to think that going forward he would be a positive influence on the club at a time when we're trying to move into a new stadium. I think you're bringing an element of calmness as well towards the family as well. The respect is the big thing, he's won everything so as a player you have to respect that when he's telling you stuff, you have to respect the notes that he's talking about and especially as a group of players you are and at the very top of their game you should have ultimate respect for them and I think we do need that calm presence and it makes me laugh when people say things like that, how could you guarantee a lot of your life? How could you do that? But that's what people are liking, people will say it because Everton have made bad choices and haven't done very well and some of it is justified to us with a massive club but the average football fan who's only interested since the Premier League started, we've been what a top, a club more than anything else but for the first part of the Premier League we were struggling in the bottom half. You can sort of understand younger kids views of Everton as a bit like what are they kind of thing because we haven't won a cup or anything for 25 years but it doesn't mean you stop trying to get to be the best. If you look at his win, he's been at Reggiana, win ratio 41.46%, Palmer, win ratio 48%, Juventus, win ratio 55%, Milan, win ratio 56%, Chelsea, win ratio 61%, Paris Saint-Germain, win ratio 63%, Real Madrid, win ratio 75%, Bayern, 70% win ratio and England. Napoli 52% win ratio, overall just under 59% win ratio but Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea, Milan, Juventus, some big big big. That Real Madrid won't surprise me at the win ratio. 75% considering the Barcelona team at the time he was up against, finished with a plus 220 gold difference. Only lost 16 games, 189. So I mean obviously you're talking about having top quality players of course, you know Cristiano Ronaldo is a big, big part of that, God of Bail. But you know a good manager, no doubt about it. It's going to be interesting dynamic with Duncan Ferguson isn't it? He's obviously, I mean Duncan had come in and done a really good job as a caretaker. United the club I feel, got the fans involved again emotionally with the club and has got that passion and that desire for Evan to do really well. So it almost seems like it could be a really good fit for Evan. I always stated that the club needs a world-class manager. He doesn't care. Listen, he's sent himself, he's not probably ready to take it properly at the moment but his ambition is to get there and he felt it though. When he came in here he said to us, listen we want the best manager we can get and he's never moved from that narrative and we've got probably the fella with the best CV we could have got. So I mean what do you make of that, him and Duncan do you think it's something that could work? 100% like I mentioned on the video a couple of weeks ago, I think Duncan has a world-class manager next to him. I think you'll start seeing Duncan grow and grow and grow and you might see him maybe go a bit calmer and maybe becomes a bit of a thinker of the game. But for Duncan I think there's no better manager to lay off really. Like you said the couple of managers that we've had in the past like you Coomins, you Martiners, you Silvers, has he really been able to lay much? You'll have as much input as he probably might be able to under this manager because one thing I've noticed and read up about Angelotti, he likes his coaches being involved and he likes to hear their point of view on things. I don't know if I have to be right, I've read a few times where him and Wilkins disagreed on quite a few things but he did what's the best for the team at the end of the day. We all know that Duncan just wants the best for the club and the fans and I'm sure the good thing for Duncan has been able to do as well. I think he's made the job a lot easier for the next manager to come in now because he's got the fans back on side where the fans have been lost for the past four or five years really. He's got good of some booming again and I think he'll make Angelotti's job a lot easier than it would have been maybe if he'd come in just straight away. Definitely because I think what Duncan did was he showed you can get a level of performance out of these players and a lot of people and I know Pedd had some concerns about whether these set of players or certainly some of them were capable of putting those kind of performances in like we've seen with Duncan. Can we probably all thought that are we too soft, are we capable of rolling our sleeves up and getting involved and the players have done that for Duncan Ferguson so if he's still allowed an input which is all he really wants is an input into making Everton Football Club a better team and a better club then I think he'll be happy with that and if Angelotti, he's not going to be shouting and screaming, he's going to be the fella who's overseeing everything, he's 60, he's going to be the fella who's overseeing, he's being there done it so therefore if his coaches can get the team ready and he can tinker with it and then on matchdays we might try to focus and get up and you're the one who geased him up on that sideline and we might see games where he's sat in the stand in the first half of a session from there or whether he's not so. We'll have to see, I mean he is very much a dugout manager to be fair to him and the other big thing as well as our crowd can be difficult at times we know that but this is a fella that's at a face, he's at a face Italian fans who are mad, Bayern Munich loads of demand there for them to be the best and he's not perfect, he's had a couple of issues of buying with players like Arsian Robin and people like that, Frank Lampard spoke up last week and said he's an unbelievable manager and he's an unbelievable fella and whoever gets them they're getting a top manager and that's all you can ask for isn't it and I suppose for Everton, yeah it's a show of ambition but it might just be the first clever managerial appointment we've made. Definitely, I think with Angiolotti. And the same mate, of course. I know, I think even what reminds me of Angiolotti when it was Chelsea days they seemed to have had a really good team spirit when they were at Chelsea as well, like he got players like Enelka who was always known as a tough player to manager, I always remember him getting the best at Enelka when he was at Chelsea so I feel like he's one of those managers who yeah he might not show he's got an angry side but I feel like if you're not doing your job properly he won't suffer no fools either. He don't get to the top of your game. No, I mean he's managed like a Maldini, some of the top players we've ever seen in the world so I don't think he'll be bothered by a few players that we've probably got so and that's the thing, that's the challenge for the players to try and prove to this manager that they are the right players for the club as well. One thing before we finish, what could be very interesting dynamic as well and it'll be interesting to see how it plays out as the relationship between himself and Marcel Brands. We know that Brands was very heavily involved in this process and Angiolotti was someone who he felt everything should get but obviously Marcel Brands is tasked with running the football side of it in terms of players and stuff so it'll be interesting to see how the targets maybe of players have their way together When he was a buyer, the people behind the scenes there, most of the transfers, remember they signed Gennabry from Arsenal when he was there and Kingsley Common so he's got younger players so he's not scared to play them either because some of them players were probably at the best when he was there He hasn't really been the same player ever since so I think it's the first bit of stability we've had with this manager, with a manager, with the name, the honours that he's got, like you said in the past it's been evolving gambles where I don't really see this as a gamble I can only see it hopefully benefiting us going forward and attracting maybe a different type of player now where we may have not been able to attract or Brands might have not been able to attract the players of the club due to the, like no offense to Marco Silva They weren't really aware of what he's done in the game and where Brands will go to the point where we've got Angiolotti as manager, where that could change the players' perception of coming to Everton Reminds me a bit like Man City when they first started with all the money that they spent and they had a few hiccups from Arcuse, they had Mancini and then they ended up coming across, obviously they had Pellegrini so we might need just that one manager to change our fortunes I think what you need is you need stability and you need to, I think what it might do is it might calm the natives, it might calm our supporters down to go well he's a good manager so it's not all a manager I think with someone like Marco Silva or even Ronald Cooman or Martinis you're looking at them going really, they really know what they're doing and it allows people to build a narrative against those people that they're not experienced enough or what have they ever done in the game And then that, once that negativity creeps in, it's dead easy then to blame the manager where at times it's the players and at times it's circumstance so if you've got someone who most of the fans are going, we know that this fella's a good manager, you're more likely to be calmer Trust is the decision and you're more likely to be calmer on victories and defeats so I just think it's going to be really interesting That's what I mean because the amount of times we used to hear under Martinis on Silva he hasn't got a clue with this bloke, we can't really say that about this bloke It's going to be really interesting I think as we go forward and I'm not getting too carried away with it and just going to see what happens but he's a big name and probably the best that Everton could have got at the moment so Like I said we'll see but I think of caution as well of like it's not going to, you're probably not going to see the football that he wants straight away maybe What I would say because we're finishing right now is that he should be able to make an impact straight away because he's the top manager so let's wait and see but the big news Everton and Carlo Ancelotti are a thing, Carlo Ancelotti named as the Everton manager Let's see, let me know what you think in the comments section below, you're excited?
