Unbelievable Jeff

This could just be more brinkmanship though...

You're talking ****. He got two more.

Or we just say no to the compensation, put him on gardening leave for a year and bring in a new Manager.

Bet a lot of them are quite happy, Tadic included.

They've missed the fact that Liverpool is a city of thieving ****s though...

Exactly, and judging by a lot of football fans, for instance on here, don't really respect that many opinions anyway!

Mate who's a Spurs fan: I still have a lot of time for AVB, and up until this season, had the best win rate and highest points haul in the history of club! Been very unfairly dealt with by two clubs IMO and appears to be seen as a bit useless, but yeah, I think he could be great for you!

No they weren't.

AVB would be a stellar appointment. People say he failed here, but he got 72 points in his only full season at Spurs, 2 more than this season!

My point exactly.

Perhaps, although really that doesn't matter anymore. Information comes through third parties in this instance so there doesn't have to be any actual meetings to get the contract offer.

Indeed. Koeman holds all the cards really, dependent on how bothered Les et al are that he stays.

OK, so Blackmore saying the Koeman's agent says Saints deal wasn't good enough, but no offer from Everton. This says to me that this is of Koeman's agents doing so Koeman can get the contract and assurances he wants from Saints. This is just negotiations and forcing Saints hand. I think he wants to stay at Saints, but as he has said all along its all about ambition.

Don't forget when Poch came here he was an average manager. When Koeman came here he was an average manager. That says to me it's the club structure that has made us good, and not necessarily the talent of the managers.

I'll say it again, I really don't think he's going.

That tells me this is all ******** then, as it's essentially free money for them if they were sure he was going to Everton.

I certainly wasn't!

What evidence makes you think he's going? I'll ask you a 6th time.

I think that depends on who we'd bring in.

Exactly.

Montella maybe.

As I've asked you many times, what makes you think it's a done deal?

I didn't think they got info anymore? Or am I wrong on this? I would also assume if it was true they'd hint to it, instead of staying silent.

None of the big media outlets have said it's a done deal, just the amount offered. Sounds like, again, this could be completely on the Everton side.

Plus they have no European football...so who will they attract?
