Ten most recent Everton managers

David Moyes has made his return to Goodison Park after a 12-year absence, following the parting of ways with Sean Dyche.

Below we look at Everton's 10 most recent managers to have taken charge for at least 100 days

Sean Dyche

With Everton again facing a relegation battle, the club turned to Sean Dyche, who'd consistently kept Burnley's heads above water with five straight seasons in the top flight.

Dyche, too, would keep Everton up, but with a lack of progress on the pitch, the 53-year-old was sacked after two years at Goodison Park.

Frank Lampard

The appointment of Frank Lampard didn't immediately arrest Everton's decline in 2022, with the side losing five of their first six matches, but impressive form late in the season that included wins over Manchester United and Chelsea culminated in survival with an unforgettable win from 2-0 down against Crystal Palace in the penultimate game.

Rafael Benitez

The appointment of a manager who won the UEFA Champions League with Liverpool was always going to be a contentious one at the other side of Stanley Park, and despite a strong start with 10 points from four games, Rafael Benitez's Everton quickly went into free-fall.

With one win in 11 games, Benitez was dismissed after just 22 games in the dugout.

Carlo Ancelotti

The move to bring Carlo Ancelotti to Everton was a significant coup for the club in December 2019.

In his first and only full season in charge, Ancelotti guided the Toffees to the top of the Premier League table after six games, but a poor run from the turn of the year saw European ambitions quelled, eventually finishing 10th.

Marco Silva

Having sufficiently impressed in his short spells at Hull and Watford, Marco Silva was appointed Everton boss ahead of the 2018/19 season. Despite mixed results, Silva guided the Toffees to a top-half finish, but a poor start to his second season that saw Everton fall into the bottom three following a 5-2 defeat at Liverpool saw the Portuguese tactician dismissed.

Sam Allardyce

Though he might not have been the most popular appointment at the time, Sam Allardyce did steady the ship at Goodison, ensuring Everton would stay well clear of a relegation battle and finishing in the top half, but an underwhelming style of play saw him depart at the end of the campaign.

Ronald Koeman

Having guided Southampton to seventh- and sixth-placed finishes in the Premier League, Everton called on Ronald Koeman to replace Roberto Martinez.

Koeman picked up where he left off at the south coast, taking Everton to Europe in his first season, but a dismal start to his second term that saw the Toffees in the relegation zone saw him dismissed in the October.

Roberto Martinez

Taking over from David Moyes wouldn't be the easiest task for any manager, but having guided Wigan to an FA Cup win over Manchester City, Roberto Martinez was enjoying a growing reputation in the dugout, and enjoyed a superb first season at Goodison.

Everton would finish fifth - above Moyes's Manchester United - in the 2013/14 season, but two underwhelming campaigns followed, with Martinez removed from post.

David Moyes

Overseeing Everton's best period since the mid-90s, David Moyes would take Everton from the bottom half of the Premier League to rubbing shoulders with the big boys, even cracking the top four in 2004/05.

From 2004/05 to Moyes's departure in 2012/13, Everton would record nine top-half finishes in 10 seasons, finishing in the top six five times.

Walter Smith

After his incredible period with Rangers, Walter Smith moved south of the border to join Everton, but after three disappointing seasons, the Toffees once again found themselves at the wrong end of the table, with Smith being dismissed in the March of his fourth term.
