We are the Everton to their Southampton. #elmeltdownio

So Guan is saying De Boer is not on the shortlist despite quite significant Dutchness, same agent as Koeman (as was) and general Black Box suitability?

Your guy will run out of money and interest quicker than Randy Lerner. If Koeman is taking a step up and Everton are aiming higher than we are, that's top 4 then. You won't do it. At best Top six a couple of times then your sugar daddy realises he's having to pump in £100m every frigging year and the fanbase start grizzling when you don't and then it all goes to sh it. Hopefully you will concentrate on getting the stadium built because your current toilet needs some work and that's what will really set you up, not ludicrously overpaying for a manager who is perfectly fine but not worth nigh-on Mourinho money. Good luck.

I doubt we will sell anyone to Everton, except maybe Wanyama who we just need to cash in on somewhere.

That is a new forum username. Two posts in and I have no doubt it us one of the usual suspects.

Emery seems ludicrously out of reach and at absolute best coming to Saints would be sideways move, even with us being close to the New Forest and stuff. No doubt we'd probably pay him more, but I can't think of any manager these days that would take on such pointless pathetic sideways move just the effing money.

If Emery came to us, stayed two seasons then walked out to go to Barcelona or Manchester United then I for one would be over the moon.

Why would AVB get stick? The media loves a redemption story and if he does well here they've got one. I'm saying it and I'm saying it now. AVB is our Ranieri.

Even if he is allowed he's hardly going to say "I've left for the money I'm rich I'm rich I'm rich". In his Everton press conference he'll make one reference to "they matched my ambition" and the cretins on here will go into absolute meltdown and will be quoting that phrase day in, day out until Christmas.

Walked out on S****horpe.

Except Les has appointed four managers, all have been successful and Koeman wasn't a lucky appointment. But you know that and choose to be pig ignorant.

Except you said yesterday Koeman succeeded in spite of the board, so let's assume you'll do the same again.

New manager does not as well as Koeman: entirely the boards fault. New manager does as well or better than Koeman: all in spite of the board. That'll be about right, right?

Nothing a few dozen Rolos wouldn't sort out.

Personally I don't think Everton have been that ambitious with this appointment. If they are paying him the salary of a elite level manager then why didn't they go for an actual elite level manager.

GUESS WHO'S BACK Back AGAIN Swivel eyes is BACK Tell a FRIEND

I think it will be AVB or De Boer. Genuine European experience (and triumph in AVB's case) so will feel like a step up even from RK. And we'll sign some new players who in two years time Manchester United will want to sign. All I want is for us to announce the replacement within, say, 24 hours of RK going. Let's look like we are in control and moving on. Those two both free agents so feels doable.

I'm enjoying the new dawn.

You're wasting your time. In three days time he'll pretend not to know what it means again.

How did Leicester demonstrate more ambition than us?

Why do you always have to pretend you don't know what provincial means?

Well done on starting your thread.

Stop ruining it.

Well, I knew who'd started this thread just from the title.

Everton are on a one way ticket to the next level and no mistake. All about ambition you know. Now, basically it's nothing more than a discussion about whether they finish second or top next year. I wish we were Everton.
