Chris27687 Posted 12 May, 2016 Share Posted 12 May, 2016 How are they going to offer the latter with FFP?

nta786 Posted 12 May, 2016 Share Posted 12 May, 2016 How are they going to offer the latter with FFP? I don't think he would have to rebuild at Everton every season unlike us. Also, traditionally they are a bigger club as others have said can offer more £££, and possibly higher wages/transfer pot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Billy Posted 12 May, 2016 Share Posted 12 May, 2016 Don't think the Everton job would be the step up that Ronald would be tempted by, tbh unlike Joey Barton on Talk Sport today I personally don't even think it is a step up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I was unfortunate enough to hear Mr Barton say that we've done alright in recent seasons, but are nothing compared to the massive gravitational pull that is planet Everton. So it's a no-brainer for RK, according to Joey. Yes Everton are a big club, but so are Newcastle - should Ron consider them too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tajjuk Posted 12 May, 2016 Share Posted 12 May, 2016 'Traditionally bigger club' means very little these days IMO. It's cash and the level of football for most players out there, even the cash situation is not that favouring the 'bigger' clubs because having an extra 10,15k people through the gates is small compared to £150 million TV money everyone will get. You need like Man Utd levels of commercial money/sponsorship for the true extra revenue. Players/managers will go from us to Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool because they can offer them high wages and likely will challenge better than us, and they will go to Arsenal, City, Spurs, and now Leicester because again higher wages + champions league. Unless Everton can literally throw millions at players and offer him a giant contract as well, it's a step down for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangermouth Posted 12 May, 2016 Share Posted 12 May, 2016 RK has said he will stay 3 years and he will. He probably won't sign a new contract. Just like he did at Feyenoord. Then he'll possibly do his national team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB Fry Posted 12 May, 2016 Share Posted 12 May, 2016 I don't think it will happen, it's a bit of brokers/agents talking and quite frankly it's not really a great move for Koeman - a sideways move to just another club that could potentially finish sixth, just without the two year head start he has with us. It's not going to get him any nearer to managing Barcelona than we are. But stop asking for quotes in newspaper stories people. Quotes in many many cases are not indicators of veracity - quotes can be from no-mark sources. True, good sources would provide info without giving usable quotes. Judge stories on their merits, it's not that difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 12 May, 2016 Share Posted 12 May, 2016 Hope Koeman stays with us. But if he doesn't then we know De Boer is keen on coming to England. And we might also find out how 'ambitous' the up and coming Howe really is. Would be disappointed if Koeman left for a mediocre club like Everton, but if he did go I expect we'll move on pretty quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get some people's thinking that it is a good thing if he sees out his contract. Teams always under perform if they know the manager is leaving. If he doesn't sign he has to go.
