Are You seriously mocking one of the most informative & knowledgable posters on the whole forum.

But Joey do you want him to stay there or come to us? And what will he bring as manager to us?

I think it's up to the new director with the cash to know what he needs at our club he is from an Arsenal mentality background so he has had time to see hoe RM was not working out despite overtures of BK after our defeat v Chelsea in the cup praising RM- if you think back to when DM walked we were in panic, and RM was way down the list!
This time we have time, and try to get the best with a trophy pedigree hopefully BK being a silent advisor only, the new man with the money will choose in the end IMO!

Any new manager will be a risk,don't forget where Chelsea where when the peoples favourite Jose was sacked.I was a season ticket holder that season and just think your being a bit harsh on someone taking over a group of players who were not happy at losing a manager they all loved. They'd just been dumped out of Europe with three points in three games,and the extent of the growing debts was starting to become apparent.Interesting quote from Flores when he left a club in turmoil behind the scenes.

Sánchez Flores said: “On one hand I feel disappointed but on the other I’m relieved. I want to thank Valencia for giving me the chance to coach a top-class team and for giving me enough space to allow me to continue growing as a coach. I leave feeling convinced that we were ready to achieve our objectives at the end of the season, but if this is the best solution for everyone, I accept it willingly. I lose a job, but get my life back."

He was a disaster at Valencia and there's no way round it -18% win ratio.
Emery with the same group of players and amid financial chaos (players not being paid for 2 months) & sorting the fallout from Koeman's breakdown with a number of senior pro's got them to 6th in his first season.
If he becomes Everton manager then you have to hope he's learnt from this and can cope with the extra pressure of the job.

How did Emery get on at Spartak Moscow mate?

 

[jceverton]

A poor season with a trophy,as he did in Valencia would be OK for a start.

The players put the knife into Koeman by showing they could play in the cup and not turning up for the league. There was more than a few comments to this effect at the time.

Won 9, drew 2, lost 6 - 53% win rate. He went to the wrong club & the wrong league. These things happen. His record at every other team he's managed has been very good, unlike Koeman.

Fed up of Southampton fans now. Do Spurs fans think they're a 'bigger' and 'more attractive' club than Man United cause they've finished above them for two seasons? No, they don't cause they're sensible and actually understand the logistics of football. And they're also too busy enjoy their own clubs success to be bothered about anyone else.

I know every football fan defends their club but this is getting ridiculous now. You've actually joined an Everton forum to explain why Koeman wouldn't leave Southampton for Everton. And also gone to the effort of joining another team's forum to try and explain why you're the bigger club - I think that says it all.

If Koeman stays at Southampton - good luck to you both. Got no issues at all with Southampton, but please don't come on here and act like you're bigger than us. Just look at the major trophies column and you'll find everything you need to know there.

That's it from me. Rant over.

Well said. Southampton Fans are becoming a joke (if not already) - Did we say we are bigger than RS when we finished above them? or are we bigger than man utd? when we finished above them? I hope Southampton get into europe and then we will see how well they do. Not sure if Koeman is the answer, but if did leave them for us that would be funny.

I'm just playing silly buggers. Emery would be boss but don't even think he's being considered mate so best to let it go.

Unfortunately I think you're right, but for the life of me I don't know why. He's clearly a very good manager and in my opinion streets ahead of Koeman.

Possibly out of our league maybe. I think Mourinho would be too if he was in work. But he's not.

I was a season ticket holder at the time and frequented a couple of bars that some of the players used and heard nothing like that,are you ITK in Valencia?
