Was that before or after he wrote the FA handbook though?

Ha. Just trust the process.....trust Uncle Les

That sounds like meltdown talk to me. #wemarchon

If Les, Ralph and Ross conclude he's the best man for job after a meticulous process, who are we to argue?

Just relieved that Moyes doesn't seem to be in the running.

It's "please"

That's just my stock copy and paste response to every departure now. It's the only acceptable attitude on SWF.

I'm not bothered because our recruitment is amazing and we will replace him with someone better.

Massive assumption to make. At no point ever, even when everyone has been fit (rarely), has Pelle been behind Austin and Rodriguez.

Why would he be fourth choice?

Agree with this. Miles better than Sterling IMO. His price tage came with the English premium and Liverpool hype obviously but Mane is a better player all round. Would be dissapointed to get anything less than £40M if based on ability and potential.

Exciting times for both Brands

That Telegraph article is getting a fair amount of stick on twitter!

I'd feel the opposite. In a straight choice between Moyes and Howe, I would go for Howe all day long. Mainly because his stock is quite high and he seems closer to "our type" of manager than Moyes. Plus Moyes is a bit tainted now and close to becoming a comedy character in my eyes.

I would imagine that triggering the clauses in the three contracts as an example could set them back something anywhere between £70-80M so doable if their alleged transfer kitty is accurate. I wouldn't say that there was anything intentional from Koemans side though when the players signed. Hopefully the clause will include another qualifier like bids from Champions League clubs or from the continent.

We've been assured by one of the Everton dins that they probably won't "take" VVD or Forster so I'm sleeping well tonight.

A charity for adult education in Liverpool perhaps?

The entire history of Everton in my lifetime involved relegation fights with us in the 90's, Kevin Campbell, the Moyes era and then them crying about Martinez for two years. Simply MASSIVE!

Not sure what exactly is within the Saints criteria so it's hard to pick one from the list. Easier to pick one who I don't want in Moyes who does stand out as a bit odd compared broadly to the others.

Ok, you happy clappy wreck it ralph loving freak. I will have a proper soggy-fied meltdown if we end up with Davey Moyes!

That was two years ago. Since then, any rumour, post to an article or general discussion around the future which isn't gleaming with positivism is labelled as a meltdown.

I think you should take your insecurities and **** off elsewhere.

The dynamic of this site has evolved over the last couple of years where any thread or discussion around managers/players leaving which is negative in any way is seen as a "meltdown" or people losing grip when any fans of any team anywhere will not always be happy with the prospect of losing good manager and/or players. It's a bit weird.

I think the insinuation is that he didn't want to sign but wanted to stay. But now has to go to Everton

Another, "JesitcoCNM" reckons today or tomorrow latest.
