And the Portuguese coach says he is aware of the fans' expectations after Allardyce failed to truly convince them."I'm really proud to be the new Everton manager," he told the club's official website. "I'm excited and I'm really happy to take this big challenge for us as a club and for me as a manager. "I want to express my thanks to Farhad [Moshiri, majority  shareholder], to the chairman, to the board of directors and to Marcel  [Brands, director of football] as well for the confidence in my work."I know the huge history of Everton as a club and what the fans  expect. I'm sure with everybody working together I will be ready for  this challenge."We have a lot of work to do in this next month and it is important  to prepare everything in the right way. But there will be even more  important work to do from the start of pre-season into the first Premier  League match of next season. "I know what our fans expect - they expect results but not only  results. I want our fans to be proud when they see our team on the  pitch. I want them to feel that we are committed, that we are working  hard and enjoying our football because that is important as well. "Everton is a really ambitious club and that is what I want. What we  are seeing now are good changes at the club. The club is changing its  approach, but one thing we cannot change and nobody wants to change is  the huge history and ambition of the club."</blockquote>
