I'm a big fan of Jose Mourinho. He’s been an amazing manager over the years, one of the all-time greats but I don't see how this Everton job ticks the box.

Everton are in a massive, massive relegation fight. I think it's out of them and Ipswich to go down. Mourinho needs to be higher up the league than hanging around fifth bottom.

I just don't see how Mourinho does as any differently to Sean Dyche. I don't see any difference in that. He's a massive name in football but I'd be careful with that one.
