Ronald Koeman

[Kev The Rat]

Not to be contrarian but Barcelona (assistant) and Ajax could be construed as a bigger club.

...to be fair I like that it isnt Plucky little Everton anymore, we should be thinking we are a big d club

Benfica as well, maybe

 

[KaiserEFC]

There is no way in hell soton are going to come anywhere near or even attempt to match the reported 7m a year.

How much?! Koeman isnt worth that!

 

[Rollo Tomassi]

7M a year is way too much for a steady eddie

Southampton local news is saying that Everton have been refused permission by SFC to talk to Koeman and that no discussions have taken place. Sky Sports jumped the gun here?

 

[toffeejack]

Sorry ya, you know what I mean though. I'm assuming Koeman would give a list of positions with preferred players and the final decisions would be made by the DoF in conjunction with the board. I'm not fully sure how the continental system works I'm just guessing here.

i've always wondered as well. Like if i'm manager and there's a chance of getting a great player for £25m, but could also land a player nearly as good for £20m but a bright up and comer for £5m as well.

Surely the manager may say, well actually i'd rather the quantity of two players, as opposed to the DoF knowing that the £25m was their first choice and labelled as "sign at all costs".

They surely must be engaged in some way? Have to in my mind.

Exactly. Spending between £25 and £27 million on bringing him in is an absurdity; we should only be spending that sort of money on a manager who is absolutely nailed on to have us win a lot of things.

 

[AaronTheBlue]

yeah paying a manager who hasn't exactly set the world alite is madness really, he absolutely isn't worth the money but i guess moshiri believes in him so it doesn't really matter does it.

 

[4737carlin]

I bet that clown on Talk SPort Durham will have a debate saying something like "Has Koeman lost the plot" "should of held out for a top job...etc" something like that

It's the going rate.

As it stands in order of managers of salary (in PL):

- Morurinho
- Pep
- Wenger
- Conte
- Klopp
- Poch

£7mil would put him about on par with Poch, maybe just less. If we want to be back in the top 7, we need to pay the money...

 

[BlueToff]

We can afford it. Chill

@davek was right from day one and @The Esk was wrong.

Woe behold those who trust in false idols.

Stopped reading at Davek was right.

 

[Allezfan]

Stopped reading at Davek was right.

Esk was saying we'd get a top drawer manager, dave said we'd just get a steady eddy.

Oracle dave was right again.

Again?

Martinez?


Who'd of been your choice? Baring in mind Dave was saying stick with Martinez unless we could get Jose or someone of that ilk.

 

[COYBL25]

He hasn't even taken the job yet and already he's getting slated.

Everton that

FFS.
