Mallagroth Posted 3 June, 2016 Share Posted 3 June, 2016 The saddest thing about this is I layed against Koeman being next Everton manager based on my belief the guy would honour his own words. And up to now I thought hobnob gate was the real tragedy, spare a thought. On the flipside i'm bloody excited that we get a shakeup in the next season. Koeman wasn't perfect, but was still one of the best we've had. However it was only a matter of time and if he wasn't interested in 1 year extension with us, then more fool Everton and good move Saints board.

diggers Posted 3 June, 2016 Share Posted 3 June, 2016 Right now, I'd swop all the success we've had recently for a bit of old fashioned loyalty. A word that doesn't really exist beyond the stands in modern football. The only way to achieve this at our club is for a Matt & Franny management dream team. We'd probably be Championship but I'd personally take that over the annual harvest of players, managers and staff that use Saints as nothing more than a stepping stone. The supporters are taken as mugs at all top flight clubs these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pangy Posted 3 June, 2016 Share Posted 3 June, 2016 Its a pity as RK always came across as a man of his word,if he does go will be interesting to see what reason he gives, we are looking to tie players down to long contracts and have stated that we no longer want to sell our best players each summer. He can't say Everton is a new project and the chance to do something good as no other team bar Leicester has made as much progress as us in the last few seasons For me it will be purely a financial reason and I can't see how he can walk away looking well from this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatlesaint Posted 3 June, 2016 Share Posted 3 June, 2016 Well I was totally taken in by Koeman, he appeared a man of his word and had principals. When he said he would be manager of Southampton next season I saw no reason to disbelieve him. And then he up sticks and ****s off to Everton.....Everton not even a top club which I could have just about accepted. To hell with the lot of them, I won't believe another word that comes out of a footballer/managers mouth. And I suggest the club dispense with the Les Reed end of season interview as it's making us a laughing stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapaWaiToGO Posted 3 June, 2016 Share Posted 3 June, 2016 This whole story seems like a smoke and mirrors. It doesn't make any sense for Koeman to go to Everton, the only real reason would have to be money - as much as Everton fans feel they are a massive club (I suppose every club has those fans though). The problem with that is, though, that Koeman has said a few times that choosing money over what's best for you is the wrong thing to do - I think he said that during the Victor saga, although I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. I feel that he is a principled bloke, so if he is leaving he must feel that another season at saints would be detrimental to his career - and if he's had another summer of players knocking on his door wanting out, I can see why he would feel that way; he can't build anything.

Saints1976 Posted 3 June, 2016 Share Posted 3 June, 2016 It seems clubs let us see if players and managers can establish themselves in the Premier League and then step right in and take them off us.
