    You are free to disagree with any argument on the site but you are always at risk of being wrong if you do, so get it right first and prove your argument is correct?

    The board are great but not perfect, as i'm told repeatedly only my wife is perfect.

    What argument? That people don't like the board being criticised? Read back. Enjoy.

    Article in the echo published 10 hours ago stating people within the club are confident Koeman will still sign and that they are relaxed about this point. Everton have not been in touch with us and therefore they aren't actually speaking with Koeman. Personally I still think he will leave but at this point I wouldn't even be surprised should he stay. Think it's best to just remain patient and react when the club put out an official statement.

    What would be the response to Ronald going to Everton, but Erwin staying as manager?
    They're not joined at the hip and Erwin has been in charge in his own right, previously.
    I don't know how successful Erwin has been, as a manager. Just looking at a different option with the least upheaval.

    Just maybe the Board are going all American on our asses.

    Ralph (Canada is surely just a large suburb), Under Armour, this Baltimore crap.

    I have a sneaky feeling this is just setting us up for Bruce Arena. Or maybe we are locating to Coventry...

    Paco Jemez - All out attacking football and I think I'm right in saying out of contract.

    Haha, to be fair, it would mean we don't have to change our style. Quite similar managers really.

    Not sure how much I like the idea of all out attack. 73 goals conceded in La Liga last year doesn't particularly fill me with great hope, kind of got used to Koeman's organised style

    Good point, id rather change it up a little. Harder press for a start, and more use of quality youth.

    Ah, common sense...

    Clearly our ambition wasn't big enough. I wonder how much ambition our new manager will take home per annum? :)

    Lest not forget added expectation that will be upon a new Everton manager, who may say be earning perhaps £7m a year with huge player sales.

    I think Everton have looked and said we did well for Spurs and they want the same, without looking deeper at our infrastructure. RK is admittedly an important and good component part, but component all the same.

    Perhaps this is still being considered by Ron...

    Pochettino? <laugh>

    Seriously, it has to be Bielsa, he taught Poch everything, and influenced Gusrdiola.
