Let the manager dramas begin. Carlo Ancelloti is gone from Everton for Real Madrid. Seems like poor form from him given how much he talked up long term planning for Everton.
Most people are nothing if not opportunistic

Hard to turn down Real when Everton are always so .... mediocre. The promising signs at the start of the season just withered away and they finished below Leeds

Gee it's a merry go round for Italian managers at present. Ancelotti, Conte, Pirlo, Inzaghi and Allegri either taking up jobs or being movedon just to name a few.

Good opportunity for Nuno Santo in my view. The talk seems to think it's between him & Moyes. I can't see why Moyes would leave West Ham though, he's arguably the EPL 20/21 manager of the year with the results there. Nuno also seems to be talking to Palace, but that would be a step sideways or backwards from Wolves. Everton may not be one of the top tier clubs, but that may well change with their new stadium.

The reality is as a manager that you simply don't want to be the last person standing when the game of musical chairs finishes.

Comte reportedly in advanced talks with Tottenham.
This sounds like the Mourinho appointment - a proven winner etc etc. Conte is good for a season it appears and by then he's pissed everyone off and pisses off. If Inter didn't give you enough to spend, welcome to Levy and Tottenham.

I'm not sure he is the guy we should be getting. The way Levy operates, we need a guy who is comfy developing young players and surviving on a budget

He sounds similar to Jose in his pomp. He was more subdued this time, probably due to his failures at Chelsea and ManU

Conte is also very demanding on the players.
Good. Our players need a kick up the arse. Son and Kane had statistically amazing seasons, if the others had pulled their collective finger out we could have made top 4

And the English domestic season rumbles on. The playoffs for the National League started today and Notts County magnificently triumphed over Chesterfield 3-2 and will play Torquay next weekend for a place in the playoff final. Early game to avoid clashing with the Euros!

@Kiwiwomble Not sure if you have read this:
Amazing story and good on him. I did not realise that MK Dons were the renamed relocated Wimbledon FC. Vinny Jones would approve!!!
