Defectors Watch

[Nordic Saint]

So you are saying West Brom are better than Southampton are you ?

 

His pride won't let him come back here, so forget about him. Time to move on. We haven't really missed him anyway.

Please go away Mr Carragher with your bullsh*t assumptions.

 

1) 'During the two years Koeman was at Southampton he would not have felt any heat or been subjected to any real criticism for overseeing a similar sequence, as was the case this time 12 months ago when he endured eight losses in 10 matches.'

 

Didn't we have Koeman two games away from the sack? (WBA and Watford at home in Jan 2016)

He more than felt the heat then ffs

 

2) 'I was surprised, then, that Koeman never returned to Southampton for Virgil van Dijk after John Stones was sold. This issue must be addressed in January or next summer.'

 

you're an idiot then Mr Carragher if you thought we would sell VVD to Everton after a season.

 

think this is why we all hate the city of Liverpool.

Koeman saying the youngsters aren't good enough

 

The bloke is doing a fantastic job alienating the fans, the youth players with these comments and the first team with the comments about Lukaku and the "we need the summer to make changes".

Newest documents released by football leaks show Alderweireld has a £30m release clause in his contract - http://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Actualites/Toby-alderweireld-tottenham-a-une-clause-a-30m-euro/756864#xtor=RSS-1

 

Poor business from Levy if true!

[Pamplemousse]

That's 30 million in euros, so it's about £25 million

Well same as VVD's apparent release clause then! The original article apparently has photos of the contract too so it's not a fabricated story (http://plus.lesoir.be/71957/article/2016-12-05/football-leaks-les-diables-rouges-touchent-le-jackpot) but its a subscription only site.

Lol at Koeman

[Saint Albert]

I'm starting to wonder if Koeman will make it to the January transfer window without getting fired.

Why oh why did we not get him to stay......

Everton peasants revolting en masse on Twitter. If we beat Watford by three goals tomorrow we go above them for the first time this season. We won't of course...

Thank you for the link.

 

'ageing team that lacked mobility at Southampton...' sound like we played a bunch with zimmer frames.

Teams lacking mobility compared to us must be ****ing awful to watch.

[bjb7223]

Lallana and Mane were absolutely amazing tonight. Mane deserved a goal.

[Saint_clark]

Not really a "defector", but I just noticed Sam Hoskins scoring for Northampton. Nice to see youth players making careers for themselves.

 

Ryan Tafazolli scored for Peterborough as well.

 

Alex Pearce scores for Derby.

Everton's Financial Results For 2015/16

 

Since 31 May, 2016, the Club’s major shareholder, Farhad Moshiri, has provided an interest-free loan of £80m with no agreed repayment date. This funding has been used post-year end to reduce the Club’s long-term debt by repaying the entire other loans balance of £54.8m at 31 May 2016 and to pay exceptional items referred to above.

[John Boy Saint]

7th for Christmas, ahead of Koeman in the table, Merry Christmas Sadio Máne............ Still putting a smile on Saints fans faces.

[Dark Munster]

Oh dear, early this season they were 11 points ahead of us at one stage. The honeymoon's over Ron.

This.

[Lighthouse]

Now telling Sky it was a very good team performance, not sure that'll go down too well.

[Jimmy_D]

Not often that I want Liverpool to win, but quite enjoyed that, especially with having Mané as fantasy league captain.

[saintwbu]

Really loved Mané here, about the only Liverpool player I can say I actually like, and even better when he's piling the pressure on Ron.

[Saint Albert]

Mané 1, Asshat 0

[rooney]

RC's brother looks as though he will burst into tears any minute.

[jasonb]

Saddo that I am I enjoyed browsing a few pages of the Ronald Koeman thread last night on GrandOldTeam (Everton forum).

 

The winter of discontent.

 

Does make me smile when ex-players/managers don't do as well as they had hoped once leaving St Mary's.

[Gruffalo]

Have they smashed their glass ceiling yet ?

[ALWAYS_SFC]

Yep, they`ve cut their shins to ribbons

[5string]

So West Brom are ready to bid £13m for Schneiderlein. Everton are also interested.

 

If he goes to either of them, I hope it's the Baggies.

[saint77]

From what i saw in the first half vs the Cherries. Reed should go out on loan to the championship and we should re sign MS and bring the lad home.

 

My thoughts exactly

[SuperSAINT]

I'm surprised Harry hasn't gone out on loan already. Too good for U23 football.

[Nordic Saint]

I'm not sure they'd want him. They are serious title challengers nowadays and are well stocked with defensive midfielders. If he's not considered good enough at Man United, I doubt he'll be good enough for Spurs. Everton might take him but we are the right level club for him. It's unlikely his pride would let him come back here though. If Everton don't take him, he'll end up somewhere like West Brom.

 

But, Wanyama, who was underrated by many of our fans, is having a superb season at Spurs. "Wanyama never gave the City attackers a moment’s peace." "Victor Wanyama – Superb display from the Kenyan destroyer who is fast becoming a fans favourite."

 

I'm not claiming to be ITK

Used to enjoy his press conferences, cant watch them under Puel - his manner and tone just drains the life from me.

 

Koeman has done well at Everton, he inherited an ageing squad that finished bottom half last season and only managed to add one or two (Bolasie then injured for season)

 

We have a better squad than them right now and this season we should finish comfortably above them, but feel this summer they will add aggressively and we will likely sell 2-3 again and the gap between us and them will start + his justification for leaving will then start to shine through

 

He can build something there, they have ambition that we don't it seems - he alludes to as much in the full interview

Mauricio Pochettino went to St Mary’s Hospital in London on Thursday afternoon to visit the stricken Ryan Mason*and said the Tottenham Hotspur squad had sent their former team-mate a video message, as football continued to wish the Hull City midfielder a full and speedy recovery from a fractured skull.
