We can't really get ahead of ourselves here can we? Even the esk says it's not done until it's done

Didn't he? Genuinely thought that was who he had won the league with, but my knowledge of Dutch footy is very patchy

FC Twente

LVG won it with AZ

Nope, that was Twente

Cheers chaps

You what mate???? Steve McLaren never managed AZ...

And he hasn't just 'stabilised' Sotton though has he?

he's exceeded expectations as he's made them into genuine contenders for top six. Pochettino had one season of finishing 8th, and got a move to Spurs (who finished 6th).

So by the very definition, RK has improved Sotton in the last two years...

Haha meant LVG.

Twente also had a bug wage budget under mclaren at the time of FDB joining Ajax but have now been investigated due to financial irregularities

Nice edit.

Yeah, i had a brain fart and did got the maths wrong. Focused on other things. Pretty sure that's what the edit function is for?

You can relax now mate.

No more tears

So you think David Moyes and Neville have a chance then....ok mate.

That's approximately the same, clearly

Hes a laughing stock in spain till now...perhaps you dont realise how badly he did there. Every single opposition sides fans cheered him and sang about him stayig....his players all hated him and 3 opened court cases....he i considered their worst manager of all time.

Where have I said that FFS?

Have you been up all night fretting about this?

still in your PJ's, sweaty palms from typing? open the curtains lad, it's a beautiful day out there x

Ronald Koeman stole Zatara's bird, pass it on.

Hasnt he taken them from 8th to 6th?

couldnt it be argued that chelsea and us imploded for the past 2 seasons so hes kept them stable whilst others have shot down the league?

Cheers mate; thanks for the support through it all

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Those doubting Koeman watch him here on MNF from 13mins on, he's a top manager in this league, he'll sort the defending, that's all we need.

A manager who works on set pieces! Hallelujah!!

Likes to get crosses in too - think we'll see our old Baines back next season if this goes through

 

[Lanolin]

If you asked the Soton fans who they'd want back out of Poch and Koeman they say Koeman all day long, they say he is a better manager, and they know, they've had experience of both.

And yet some Evertonians are saying he's not good enough for us?

2 months ago there were Everton fans who swore Martinez was the second coming.

 

[Screech]

You should google koeman and the clubs hes been at....very negative opinions before feyenoord.

also ajax and psv were not favourites under fdb or cocu.

Until Feyenoord. So he made mistakes in his first few jobs, learnt from them and has improved to the point where he's been a successful manager held in high regard by the fans of the clubs he's spent his last five years at? I'd say it's substantially more insightful to judge him on the manager he is now than the manager he was 7-11 years ago.
