Next manager discussion (poll reset 21/05/2016)

I can't help feeling uninspired, I hope I'm proven wrong.

Very happy with Koeman, think together with Moshiri and hopefully Monchi he will transform this club into something that we haven't been for ages. One of the very top clubs in England. I appreciate everyone has his own thoughts and opinions on whatever manager we would have brought in. I just hope Moshiri has got it spot on, I don't care about being right personal, it's what's best for Everton that matters.

Well said

 

[Ashtonian]

Take a look at how he left Ajax and PSV with the best teams at that time....they nosedived.

AZ and Valencia were disasters.

Feyenoord and Southampton were average stable seasons.

Hes an older Eddie Howe in the Prem.

Jesus the knives are already out by you eh? Slagging off the new man before he even has got the job.

Koeman is better than Martinez, and consistently gets Europa league football and has rebuilt a squad twice now. That is what he is being hired to do.

And who cares if he was terrible at a former club, so was potch, emery, Ranieri, Jose, and yet you would have loved to see any of them take over.

If Koeman under performs the. He will be out after a suitable period, the same way Martinez was. This is the new world.

Every manager has a dodgy period at some clubs, but Koeman's recent form in the prem has seen him put together a team that is defensively one of the best and since January this year has one of the best form records out of anyone. Are these not indicators that he might be able to crack a very fluid top 4 given better players? For a club who have finished 11th twice with no European football is is a coup (no pun intended)

 

[Zatara]

Yes, but if you knew what some of us knew, you'd be slightly disappointed...

I have no inside info but having a billionaire investor + the amount of people saying how excited they are about our new top manager coming in....

I would have been just as furious if kenwright had hired Koeman.

Hand on heart id rather have Unsworth or Eddie Howe than someone whose average at best.

Unsworth or Howe with a top DOF....much more exciting than Robald Koeman.

 

[Sona]

He probably has that win rate because he was quickly sacked when he was on a downward spiral.

His record at southampton is to get one place higher due to chelsea dropping down last season and us the year before.

Hes just kept them in the same place.

Haha talk about moving the goalposts! How else do you move up the league table without another team "dropping down"?!

A proven Premier League manager with an outstanding footballing pedigree as a player. Some people are never happy.

If you lopk at my posting history id not want emery as i thought with a billionaire investor and such positivity from ITK posters we could do better.

To see Koeman as manager is almost as bad as benitez.

What im saying is that hes kept them stable and rusen due to us and chelsea imploding rather than him improving them.

Let him be. He's desperately trying to become forums new davek.

 

[Jack29]

Some terrible, poorly constructed arguments on here.

Koeman: how is he better than Martinez?

What has he won?

In conclusion of this process we've apparently been rebuffed by two winners for a 6th place trophy merchant. Nothing will go forward. There is nothing to look forward to. This is what Everton is confined to.

I agree with most of this but Ronald Koeman is not a coup based upon "things will never be the same again".

I am sure there would be better managers around than him all over the world...

 

[ilikecheese]

I was right about you.

Ok den...no idea what you are on about.

You've been right once on the internet..hurrah for you. You've also wanted Mark Hughes...and apparently Koeman. I hope Koeman (if it is happening) proves to be ready for this job and what stands before him. I am underwhelmed, but I will back him 100% if he's appointed...unlike you who was never behind the previous manager and were looking for cracks in the armor from day 1 even when we were playing some of the best football we've seen in 30 years. Sure it soured, and you eventually were right (and you love to let the entire forum know you happened to get it right for once), and I agreed he needed to go.

 

[matty1878]

Long as it's not him upfront.... I guess I have to give koeman a chance as any manager, I'm totally underwhelmed and uninspired by his appointment tho.,

Agreed.

I think you will find most fans are totally underwhelmed by this.
