Thanks NUFC-Fan. I hope that Benitez brings you success at last.

Everton fans remind me of the Pompey fans when Gaydamak took over. Remember the plonker who appeared on South Today that said they were going to sign Gerrard etc

Wow - he will have some explaining to to do the bluenoses

There have also been reports that they are after Kasper Schmeichel. Nobody really knows

Well done Mods:) for banning the bluenoses on this thread

Hope this is not the reason that K Billy has not revealed the name of the mystery manager

What an excellent choice. He said he was the best coach in the league and then said he didn't regret saying it because he was the best golfer and the best cricketer in the world as well. We can't go wrong but with his ambition like that, expect Everton to lure him from us

Jurgen Klinsmann?

Amazing to think that we have the current Italy No 9 in our squad - would we ever have thought that when we were in administration. So proud of saints

Matt Le Tissier interviewed on Alan Brazil. Summary: Doesn't think the club is that far down the line for FDB to be favourite. Set up is a million times better then when he was there - attention to detail fantastic. Credits Paul Mitchell, Les, Ross. Not a major panic losing manager. VVD superb Mane temperamental but would take a massive bid for him to go Other clubs pay over the top for our players Only a few clubs in Europe are not feeder clubs

See this tweet from Adrian

Structure of the club, on-going progression, good recruitment. He was enthusiastic about De Boer. I hope this is not the kiss of death. Alan Brazil took a more 'traditional' view though . . .

. . . so says journo Adrian Clarke on the Alan Brazil sports breakfast

Mods - please can you rule that any posts relating to Everton are off-topic - it is getting boring sifting through the bluenose posts to find the saints one (which are the only ones worth reading)

If Howe does not have enough experience then why consider Giggs or Neville as they have even less. Maybe Fonte could learn the ropes alongside our next manager so there is continuity for the future?

Does the club want to sell him? Guan has said a couple of times that he is leaving

that is a terrible thing to say

Throwing money at another club's manager is a sign of desperation not ambition. Blue noses - get back to your own forum and worry about Klopp.

Getting a bit worried about the Bertrand injury - remember the club saying Chambers was ill when he was at Arsenal

The variation in the odds indicate that no one has a clue who is going to be our next manager

After the way he was treated by Man U, I'd be amazed if he ever wanted to set foot in this country again.

Ban them!

Keeping us in the top half would not be good enough for our Board

Damn - Charlton have got Russell Slade
