If all the papers saying Koeman it makes me believe the opposite, they seldom get it right especially the rag we don't mention.

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.

It is fair to say that Ronald is the most likely at this stage? Or is it fairly up in the air?

He's been most likely for several days mate.

He said he would only post when he knew something concrete - I think this is happening.

if koeman is no.1 target surely that means mourinho is now dead in the water?

How weird that Koeman and FDB have the same agent.

Well not weird as such, just errm, weird?

I'm not mad on koeman at all I think it would be really middle of the road / boring / almost too safe.

But I can understand why we would approach him and I know hed be better than martinez was.

I just hope we actually properly interview multiple candidates and not just set out sights on Koeman.

Cheers mate.

He's definitely a good manager no doubt but not quite the massive statement I was hoping for. But then again, my hopes are probably slightly to high.

I think Koeman would do well - it wouldn't be spectacular, but I think he'd bring a good mix of Moyes & Martinez's methods.

This is an interesting watch on the way he sets his teams up: (about 15 minutes in).

De Boer sounds like he's had a few issues at ajax with playing bobby style football. However the team is totally unrecognisable from previous ajax teams and he seems to be quite determined in his career.

Proper in the fence with this fella.

Koeman has had failures but success as well, done a good job at the saints against all odds. Plays a good pressing game, but his he just a Dutch mark Hughes.

Ffs

Maybe talks are still ongoing with with Jose and koeman is #2 target but @The Esk doesn't want to get our hopes up.
That's what I'll be clinging on to anyway.

Not so mate. Esk liked my post about the prospects of Mourinho earlier. Esk knows things about stuff.

Both from the same country , played for the same clubs. Probably get a 2 for 1 deal
