# Everton: Fans rage over Nuno Espirito Santo manager update

**Some Everton fans have been left to rage as a manager update emerged on Nuno Espirito Santo.**

As per [talkSPORT](https://twitter.com/talkSPORT/status/1399714572148346882), the Goodison Park faithful are set to try and make the former Wolves boss their next coach, following the departure of Carlo Ancelotti to Real Madrid.

Although Nuno initially did very well in getting the Midlands Club up to the Premier League from the EFL Championship, followed by two consecutive seventh-placed finishes, his team finished in a pretty dismal 13th spot in the 2020/21 season ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/nuno-espirito-santo/leistungsdatenLigenNational/trainer/16520)).

Often operating with five defenders, he can be seen as a defensive coach, something that some members of the Merseyside club faithful are very much against, especially considering that they only scored a mere 47 goals in the top flight last term, the lowest by far in the top half and fewer than 11th-placed Aston Villa as well ([Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/premier-league-table)).
