 Welcome to Toffey TV to the Everton News Daily. It is the 22nd of May 2018 according to Sky Sports news insiders or whatever they call them. Marco Silva looks like he will be appointed as the Everton manager next week. That's what they're saying. I know we've heard that about four times. Literally every time I look at Twitter someone's saying it's almost done. It's almost done. They're saying it's almost done from what they believe. Sky Sports sources and all the rest of it. Alan Myers has said the same thing. A much trusted Everton source ex-director of communications. He's saying the same thing and obviously that comes from the same place but these things are not often wrong. Let's just say normally they've got the finger on the pulse of what's going on. This is after a day of not confusion but just it sounds like the search has been opened up a little bit. Reports of Marcel Brans taking charge of the home for a new manager which I think is absolutely spot on. That's what his role should be doing. It should be. He should be in charge. There should be a clear chain of command. He should be above the manager and by him going out and appointing that manager I think that is there for all to be seen including the manager Dario Point. There was talk of Eddie Howe today being in the frame. Being discussed at a board level which is fine. I think that's what they should be doing. They should be speaking about all possible candidates who are available. Michael Arthetter as well. His name's been thrown into the mix more by the media more by evertoning to think simply because it looked like he was getting the arsenal job and obviously at the last minute it looks like he's lost it to Emery there. His name has been thrown into the mix as well but it still looks like it's going to be Marco Silva. Also there's talk that everyone wants to give him a long term deal. If not a long term deal they want the manager to be in place to take Everton Football Club into a new stadium at Bramley Mordoch which will probably be four years away. So they are looking this to be a long term plan and to have a manager in place. A lot of talk today about Pellegrini going to West Ham. A lot of fans thinking why didn't we go after a manager like that. Names like Ars and Wenger have been muted before in the past. Everton are looking for a young hungry manager who can get in there and be a long term appointment where a long term plan can be followed by not just by obviously the manager but by set out by myself, brands, mastermind and it all. So next week hopefully something will be sorted next week. I know listen there's a lot of people out there who don't want Marco Silva but so who do you want? The field of managers has been I think got a lot smaller in the week in the last week or so. Emery someone I would have loved him, someone I would have loved before Cumin but obviously he's going to Arsenal now so that's been taken away from us and you know you look elsewhere who are the names that you'd be looking at to take over because I honestly don't see that many left now. Ar Tete, you know people are mentioning him but for all the things people are pointing out at Marco Silva you know he's done wrong or hasn't done or whatever. Ar Tete has done nothing, he's not even a manager so we'll have to wait and see. I still firmly believe it'll be Silva and he will be probably appointed next week. So on leaving Evan today is Lauren Stewart who is, I think he was the head scout, much sought after scout, a bit of a coup when we got him. I think we got him from Manchester City. He was Steve Walsh's top man at the club. He's leaving the club for RB Leipzig. Now we don't know whether he's doing this off his own back or whether he's being pushed or whatever but he's leaving and it looks like there's going to be a start of a reshuffle as Marcel Brands gets in and starts getting to work on sorting it out. Now listen, if he's been Evan's top scout I'd love to know who he found for us because it's not like Evan have unearthed major gems in the last two years or so. So is there a loss? I don't know, only time will tell. Maybe his hands were tied by what was going on in Evan. I don't know but I'd rather have Marcel Brands come in and get to work on getting his own people in place and finding the best for us that he thinks that will be part of the new setup at Everton Football Club. We've been linked with Lewis Merrell today. Columbian International plays for Seville. They bought him last year from Sampdoria for £17.5 million, scored seven in 24 which is not a brilliant retain. We've been linked with loads of wingers to be honest in the last few days considering we've got Wolcott at the club and we've got some like Luckman at the club. We've been linked with a lot of wingers but obviously the media put two and two together and this is what they come up with so we've been linked with it with him today. Not really much else going on today as the club take a deep breath and start to look at their options as the way forward. The next big one will be obviously getting the manager in charge. Get the manager in place and then we'll start looking at our players and trying to bring players in in the coming days. Anyway hopefully we'll have more fantastic amazing news for you tomorrow on the Everton News Daily. We'll see you then.
