Simon Jordan launches the defense of Everton's manager, Marco Silva – before calling him "weasel"

The former owner of the Crystal Palace, Simon Jordan, believes that Everton has to stand behind Marco Silva as a manager, although Jordan admits that he does not trust this 41-year-old man.

The boss of the Toffees is under pressure after a series of poor results from his team, which has only won three league games since the beginning of December.

To add insult to the injury, Everton was also eliminated from the FA Cup by the Millwall Championship team this weekend, prompting many to speculate about Silva's future at the club.

But Jordan does not believe that the club should leave the Portuguese club as quickly, as it tries to lay the groundwork for a long-term project on Merseyside.

"What I did not like about Marco Silva is that some of the executives who stay in a position for five minutes then realize what they think is a bigger job, what he has done at Watford – and Gary Rowett at Birmingham, Derby and Stoke. And they are reaping their rewards for that because Rowett has been sacked and Silva is a bit under pressure, "Jordan told talkSPORT on Wednesday.

"But what I understand from people like Strachan is that he's a very good manager. Everton is a club that I think will continue under Moshiri. I know Bill Kenwright likes it and I think this guy will probably need two or even three transfer windows to be able to get the impression on Everton who represents him.

"He hit the ground very quickly in Watford. He ran very well to Everton on the ground and a little pale, which coincides with the fact that injuries and unavailable players, like Richarlison, leave the team because he was fired, and so on.

"I am not a fan of his character, but I am not a fan of a lot of football characters because I think they lack integrity and authenticity and that is as if King Cnut were asking the sea to go back and ask some of these people to have integrity. But that does not change the fact that I think that if he has the time, which I suspect, Everton will succeed. "

He added, "He will have three transfer windows by next summer. He will have had the transfer window this summer, this transfer window and the transfer window of the next summer. So if we are sitting at this time next year and we do not see Everton moving forward in the very big direction, then you may see some pressure.

"You can not ask him to change clubs and create a culture within six months. It's very, very rare. I think it's unreasonable. And it is difficult because the expectations are so great because Moshiri has a printing press with money.

"The perception that people have Everton's expenses is not really that vast [as it really is] because if you look at the fact that they sold Lukaku for the most part 100 million pounds, they deployed it. They have had their pants off the hook a couple of times with £ 50 million transfers against people like Gylfi Sigurdsson who are not worth £ 50 million, but it's a big football club with a great tradition.

Jordan then summed up his feelings on Silva by stating, "This guy will be fine, even though I think he's a little crazy."
