Not really Friend, actually likely to take a short break when the season ends, so im just gonna push Frank as much as possible till then.
Really, really dont want Koeman, but if it happens I will support him fully.
We need to stop this fractured fanbase, its ok at the moment pushing for "our choice", but I really hope when the decision is made we all get behind the man regardless.
Very unlikely tho sadly.
Same, will get right behind de Boer and find stuff to get excited about if he's appointed.
Until then. PLEASE GOD NO.

If FDB is the Dutch Martinez and Koeman the Dutch Moyes we simply have to identify the Dutch Kendall.
Oh how I wish this option were true!

Mourinho is the Ibra of managers. Yes he's egotistical and controversial but by God he's good.
I want Everton to be back on the map and nothing would do that like appointing Jose.
Nope.
Here you go from earlier in the thread-
DutchJack, post:Hello fellas, here a Dutch perspective on the FdB situation.
Jaap Stam is not part of his staff anymore, he's managing their 2nd team in the Dutch 2nd division but he has already anounced he's leaving at the end of the season because he wants to manage a club himself, preferably in England. He originally wanted to take over from FdB but got tired of waiting for the job to open up.
Dennis Bergkamp I can't really see coming to Everton, at least from everything that he has said in recent years and more recently too. He doesn't seem ready to leave Ajax yet, but if he will he only seems open to an Arsenal move. He has no aspirations of becoming a manager, he wants to stay out of the limelight. He's not just an assistant at Ajax by the way, he's heavily involved with overall technical policy at Ajax, along with Overmars and Van der Sar. So any successor to FdB there will basically be appointed by them, just to clarify that FdB's successor won't be a reason for Bergkamp to leave either. It will likely be another former Ajax player.
The thing is, I know both Bergkamp and Stam are big names in England, and their backgrounds could certainly help settle quickly in English football, but from a coaching perspective I question their roles in FdB's success at Ajax to a degree. FdB already won 3 Dutch championships before Stam joined Ajax as his assistant. Bergkamp is known to be a very introverted guy, who is more involved with individual and technical coaching than anything else, although I'm sure he does have other input aswell. But the role of the other assistant, Spijkerman, is supposed to be alot bigger. He's the older experienced guy who excells at organisation and communication, and is supposed to organise most of the training too. He is seen as the calm in the storm who takes alot of pressure and work away from FdB.
That said, for me there's no doubt that Frank de Boer himself is mostly responsible for his success at Ajax. He has always been a leader, and a winner. And he's has a big future ahead of him as a manager I think.
