Funny how we can be linked to Mark Hughes and Mourinho at the same time

Was that because it was nice and sunny or some sort of comment about taxation?

...oddly it seems it's the take-a-way to charity shop ratio that appealed most?!?!?!?!

I know....what a quirky man eh.

 

[bicycleheader]

...yes mate, but the argument that he DOESN'T is really quite sweeping isn't it.

He wins things.

I'm not arsed how.

It is, and I haven't argued it.

Not a big fan of the black & white arguments of the vast majority of football fans. The devils in the detail, and theres exceptions to every argument. Varane for example was at his best under Jose who brought him in at 18 or 19 and put him in straight away.

He does win things, I am arsed how though. Not a fan, and don't want him, but if he joined I'd support him.

I would be worried he might not be the guaranteed success that many think he will be. He is gotten more cantankerous and problematic than ever since he joined Madrid. Does some crazy things at times. Madrid are close to, if not the, biggest club in football and he managed treat the club with disdain (in fairness he was treated badly too) and I think he would have even less respect for us. Could end up bringing drama and problems and it all ending in tears.

Yes mate but you support the Spanish Kopites and have a laminated poster of Suarez in yer ma's spare room.

Wait a minute.

Clueless about Everton

Loves Barcelona

... it's @FCBarça everyone! Hooray!

Showed today what he can do with a poor team.

Get them relegated, then have them win a game when the pressure's off and their opponents are on holiday?

Sign him up!!

Or it could be brilliant. Let's roll the dice.

That's a gamble I'd happily take TBH honest mate because it - purely as an appointment/purely as a chase - heightens everything.

The past as seen us poach from PRESTON & WIGAN...now we have a four-fold shortlist of elite names. Even just THAT makes a change.

I agree though dude, whoever it is....even if it's not our personal choice...we support, we have to...

I will admit to having similar concerns.

But, if the club is sold to him in the correct, and realistic way, the plans we have, apparently, might appeal to him as a football man.

Would be ace if that is that is the case.

I dunno where you've gotten the american idea from. I'm Irish.

Can't stand Suarez and would be happy if he left.

Saints fans are starting to feel the heat

It would be nice for somebody at the top level of football to actually take on a challenge rather than coast along on the top level constantly.

(Although if we have as much money as mentioned to spend, the challenge wouldn't be the toughest thing they could take on. That would be making Newcastle consistent, successful and likeable)

 

[hktoffee]

Make of that what you will.

Nah ta. It was you orly don't be shy to admit it.

 

[bluestevon]

Tbf had Jose ever developed younger players?

yes a fair few actually, alberto, cech, varane to name 3

 

[Nymzee]

I fear the direction the academy would go and the players close to the first XI under Mourinho's management.
