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

[D410]

I dont really think you can be Meh about something that has not happened

Were Tottenham fans Meh about Pocchetino.... yes they were... Bet they are happy enough now though

Mate - I saw Bobby coming a mile off and trust me under this fella we will be wining the 6th place trophy at best.

 

[ijjysmith]

there would also be sammy lee though, which makes everything else irrelevant.

He might not even come with him.

 

[BlueToff]

Yep, just read the mail article.

All goes along with what I was told a few months back.

Stones was the one who'd had that discussion.

 

[bullensboy]

It was Stones.

Known this for a while. Kind of hoping it was just heresay, but it was Stones and a few of the other younger players who were the most vocal. I mentioned it a while back that Stones had been saying their had been a bit of a fall-out around the time of the City second-leg, but the results had then picked up...

then I wonder if the game involved was the Stoke 3-4 game ?

 

[AaronTheBlue]

He might not even come with him.

but he probably would, and for that reason i'd want them both sacked on the spot, the day it happened

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).

Bigs up Dave Watson for the defensive work!!

I'd be happy with most of the names mentioned. Koeman would be a big improvement on Martinez imo.

I think if we were able to prise him away from Southampton it'd indicate we're planning on spending a huge amount of money on the playing squad, which is great. It'd indicate we're offering him (besides his pay and personal terms) something that blows what he has at Southampton out of the water, which is why I don't think his league position achievements there suggest they'll be what he achieves here. He'll be working towards different targets with greater resources here. He's done well so far in the premier league so I don't feel it's a big gamble either.

 

[Thuck ma Baws]

Not excited by Koeman at all. If that's the extent of "New Everton's" ambition then we're in for more of the same of the last decade. We'll never know but if it ends up being Keoman I hope it's because half a dozen others turned us down and not because the new decision makers genuinely think he's a top option.

6th is a far site better than 12th...

Koeman has a balance. It's what this club needs.

Anybody thinking we're gonna get Mourinho and be challenging for the league next season needs a headcheck.

Btw, next year will be nowhere near as open as this. I expect City, Chelsea or potentially even United will have the title sealed by April.

Check the last few years.

After a mad season in the PL, there is always a major tournament (think: City win lg last min 2012, liverpool bottle it 2014, Leicester 2016...)

Season immediately following that, all the teams tail off around xmas due to players not having a full pre-season. the team who starts the best wins the league (think: Man U 2013, Chelsea 2015...)

 

[AaronTheBlue]

that video makes me want him even less.

 

[Efcjake]

Times say we want koeman

Just building the case against yourself...


@MoutsGoat was it you who outed him as a UTD WUM?

 

[edge]

Oh well wonder who will get linked tomorrow?
Dont want Rafael, other than that can see a case for most of those linked.

Not me mate.

 

[Khalekan]

Talk sport were saying de boer had no premier league experience so could be risky. But an Evertonian caller pointed out his right hand men were bergkamp and Stam who have bossed it during their time. If we could get all 3 here I'd be very happy with that.

Jeepers.....that would be a dream team.

Bergkamp coaching the forwards and Stam the defenders.

Koeman is a huge name in football. He's as big as De Boer and as a player done as much in the game...

He's also got two years of doing extremely well with a very limited budget at a club that has had to constantly sell its best players, but has done it with a style while spotting the mistakes he has made and correcting them.

What is exciting, to you? Thinking we're getting Mourinho, or Pellegrini who has been roundly criticised recently for being stubborn and boring, or getting a manager who has been criticised for being too stubborn and defensively naive in the Eredivise???
