Looking past the short term mock conflict between Saints and Everton, I'm looking forward to the coming season, and seeing what both teams do in the transfer window, and next season.

If Koeman does go, arguably you will have a good manager in place, but will need to re-invest heavily in your squad (easier said than done), where as we will have to get a good manager in, but have a good squad, with a few departures that will need replacing. Interesting dynamic.

No matter how many times I see , it makes me laugh.

I'm puzzled as to why you think we will need to invest heavily, but that you already have a good squad. The only reason we finished so far behind you was due to the manager. I would take our squad over yours all day long with the same manager.

Yep, for me it's nothing personal. I remember feeling gutted when we lost Moyes, he was good for us then and Man U just came along and took him.
Football is cruel at times.
If Koeman comes I'll be happy and I for one wish the Saints well regardless of what happens.

You haven't got a bad squad, but my point is to match the ambition your board are showing, to take Everton back to the big time, it's not good enough at the moment. I'd argue our full strength XI is better than your full strength XI, even though it's fairly close.

I'll be interested to see how our squad does under a better manager, for me players like Mirallas, Deulofeu, Barkley, Besic, Baines, Coleman etc were criminally mismanaged and we should see a huge improvement with or without investment. We do need to be careful replacing any players that leave though.

But we beat you 0-3 with a side featuring Arouna Kone?
