Everton fans hated yesterday’s links to Marco Silva, and they’ve come up with a much better candidate to replace Sam Allardyce.
As expected, Everton announced on Wednesday that Sam Allardyce would leave the club with immediate effect.
The relationship between Allardyce and the fans has become increasingly toxic in recent months, and it was only a matter of time before the former England man was forced out.
Reports this week suggested Marco Silva was the number one target to replace Big Sam, but fans hated the links, pointing to his records at Watford and Hull as reasons to avoid the charismatic Portuguese manager.

Fans were concerned about the defensive frailties in Silva’s sides, so it’s somewhat surprising to see plenty of fans voicing their support for a move for Arsene Wenger.
Of course, the main issue fans had with Big Sam was his negative brand of football, so Wenger would certainly be an improvement in that regard.
With no sign of a new manager in sight just yet, could Wenger be the man to help the Toffees mount a challenge against the top six?
