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

[Gladystweet]

Just imagine lads, Jose is hired, he keeps Dunc on to as an attackin coach to add some much needed snide to the forward line. He then recruits psycho Pat to add some more snide to our defence.
We go to the pit for the derby, it's a tight game but we've got so much snide running through the team that we haven't conceded in 15 games, Rom picks the ball up in our own half and just runs in a straight line towards their goal. They fear the new Rom, complete with Everton tat, but they simply bounce off him as he then unleashes an unstoppable pile driver into the top corner.
Jose, complete in his Everton shiny body warmer, begins to slap the Everton badge as he runs down the touch line to his adoring followers. Big Dunc goes the other way towards the kop, lifting his sleeve to display the famous number nine. Psycho Pat? He waits for the cameramen to chase Jose and Dunc and when he's sure he's in the clear he takes klopp out with a Bruce Lee back fist.
It just has to be Jose for that reason alone

All these managers will be thanking us for being gentlemen while they sign somewhere else.

In that context, Koeman is not that statement.

Exactly my thoughts. I wouldn't be unhappy with Koeman, but he would not be the statement needed.

Let's say that we would need to pay Mourinho £10m per season, that is huge money but he is the only man I believe can convince the likes of Rom to stay. Not only this but he himself would attract a level of player we haven't had for a long time (especially with our new found fortunes).

Put it this way: If we had Mourinho and £100m+ to spend, would Dynamo Kiev's owner compare us to Stoke? Not a chance.

Going to be 4-4-2 isn't it?

This week Joe will be introducing the players to a new concept called 'tackling'

Mourinho - because Nil satis nisi optimum
Google translate makes it "Nada, mas o melhor não é suficiente"

(Anagram in English is 'Numerate insomniac falsehood', so it has to be right, as a perfect description of the thread)

 

[MartSlinger]

Koeman is ALL OVER the back pages. Everyone of them saying he's getting £100m to spend too.

 

[Goat]

That newspaper is banned from the forum lads.

For a Good reason.

I didn't mean to move the goal posts but that's who I think of when i think total football. You're right wnough about Ajax being successful with it, are they still all about the total football?

no clue to be honest mate, my knowledge of de boer is mostly limited to his playing days, and some stats as a manager

 

[Hangleton]

My niece is fluent in Portuguese - Im getting her on board.

Everton want Ronald Koeman to succeed Roberto Martínez and hope to lure the Southampton coach with the promise of the biggest transfer budget in their history.

Farhad Moshiri, Everton’s new major shareholder, sacked Martínez on Thursdayand has earmarked Southampton’s manager as his preferred replacement. The British-Iranian billionaire faces a challenge to prise the 53-year-old from St Mary’s, however, even with Koeman yet to commit to a new contract and having just over 12 months remaining on his deal.

The bookies have been listening to Moomin!

 

[AdaBrummieblue]

I know I'm on record here but that's never stopped me before. I don't think it'll be Koeman.

 

[Rollo Tomassi]
