FDB joined Ajax when they were 3rd or 4th favourites for the league. FC twenre and even AZ Alkmaar had bigger wage budgets than them.

He was brought in by Cruyff to bring back the old Ajax style of play along with other former superstars. He achieved this by playing an exciting style and integrating the youth with a £65mil+ negative spend and a max transfer fee of £4.5mil.

In the past 2 seasons hes fallen to 2nd place behind PSV under Cocu whose also a top manager and imo future barca manager.

Koeman took over the favourites for the league and after winning nosedived not once but twice. At PSV he was 12pts clear and tanked, only winning due to alkmaar i think losing to the bottom team last day of the season. How did he give up such a league -- he fell out with some of the players....same at AZ,Benfica,valencia and southampton.

FDBs done fsr better in holland than koeman. Koeman did well stabalising feyenoord and aouthampton....same as tony pulis has with WBA or Moyes dis with us.

Sure i read that Ajax fans wanted him to leave so they could get the old way Ajax used to play back......
 

Can I have 16.00 Tuesday in the press conference sweepstakes.

As for Koeman pros and cons. He isn't as exciting as Emery perhaps but is definitely lower risk as he understands the PL. At worst he is a Dutch Moyes with more money at his disposal.

At best he is a big enough name in world football that players tempted by our £ but unsure on our potential may just say yes not no helping us to finally win a trophy, regularly qualify for Europe and bury the 'plucky little Everton' reputation.

The PL promises to be very tough next season. City/Pep, United/Mourinho & Chelsea/Conte will all have only one aim, the title. Spurs, Arsenal will also believe and our neighbours, West Ham, Southampton (assuming they replace Koeman well) will all be thinking Europe/ a cup. Then there is Leicester - who knows?!

Moshiri is not wealthy enough in his own right to completely transform us but he certainly elevates us to a Europe/win a cup minimum expectation. He stops us going backwards & hopefully starts the climb so clubs like West Ham, buoyed by their new stadium & London advantage, stay where they belong...in our dust.

If he improves us, as I believe he can/will, commercially, gets a Docks stadium financed & attracts in additional investment then in 3-5 years perhaps it would be top 4 minimum that would be acceptable but for now I'm more hopeful than expectant about next season.
 
Fella of TEF reliable... Announcement within 24-48 hours. Everything agreed.

Southampton need to be seen to be making every effort to keep him.

Apparently our new boy on the Board has THOROUGHLY pissed off the Saints 'big hitters'. Which is great as those arrogant f*ckers honestly thought Koeman wouldn't join Everton - right up until last Thursday!!

You could have just read one of my comments on feyenoord under koeman to tell you that.

Unless im mistaken you said we couldnt have got koeman back then as we didnt have money. I highlighted that he would have cost buttons and wss ranked as a failure then and was with a team with financial issues so he would have cost buttons.

But he didn't have what he has now. Proven Premier league experience.

That is why we have hired him, not becuase of what he did 10 years ago.

Better managers with no experience in the league have failed in the past. So I applaud the club for getting one who is proven to do everything we need to do.

Also its questionable you are so quick to dismiss koeman yet champion managers from Holland who have little success on their own. Psv and Ajax are built from the ground up, therefore the manager may be on charge but the background is what makes them successful no matter who is in charge. De Boer is a massive risk for arguments sake and cocu is very unproven in only 3 years managerial experience.

Why would they slag them off for winning the league?

Im starting to think you actually want to be a new davek on this forum. Nobody questioned Jose when Chelsea won the league, they questioned him when they were failing. Same as noone questioned Martinez when he was 5th, me included, but they questioned him when he was struggling.

You were happy with Martinez but you're not happy with Koeman? How??

To be fair when we got Martinez I don't think we really understood how bad he was, just got deluded because of how well Wigan played in one game against us, and them winning the cup. Also we didn't have Mosh then so couldn't expect a decent name.
I'm happy with have identified a good target and got our man.
