Ridiculous reading of that interview. Those radio presenters are morons and are looking for any sort of rise that they can mock. It was a dream for them to have a fan come on and say Mourinho so they could rip them to shreds. Esk presumably knew this yet did it anyway to show first of all the ambition of Everton fans in the face of a sneering media, and secondly how our owners ambitions in the managerial market has changed. You have no proof that we didn't talk to Mourinho. Then we went and got Koeman someone else the presenters mocked as unlikely to come here.

But they were right. It was delusional to think we could get Mourinho which has since proved to been the case as it later emerged he had done a deal with Utd 6 months earlier. That's all the proof I need but if you still want to hold out hope for some reason then go ahead.

Fair point and is he as good as Der Stegen? I find it interesting nobody has taken a punt on him.

Barca don't want to sell him, I've read somewhere that they want to push him up to their number one this season.

Mike Ashley? Such was his level of due diligence in buying Newcastle United in 2007 that he was not even aware that the Northern Rock sponsorship monies had all been received upfront, nor was he aware of the outstanding transfer balances on players acquired under the previous regime.

He bought the club on a whim, it represents less than 5% of his estimated net worth, and he's employed terrible business people to run it - it's not a comparable situation in my opinion.

Ashley bought the Skunks as cheap advertising. Renamed SJP without paying a penny and ran them at break even for years.

Not going to lie, never heard about this Steve Walsh chap before.

But reading the Leicester forum, they all seem gutted about it if it happens. Some saying it's a bigger blow than losing Kante.
