Not many will disagree with that. To mark him as too big for us so he should leave to play for them instead shows lack of tact and lack of ambition imo.

Thankfully those defending Koeman's comments speak only for themselves and a handful of other people who've lost all sense of who we are as a club.

Shocking how some people have no concept of marketing too.

Yes, because it's exactly like that.
It's quite simple: our manager has told our players they can do better elsewhere at other football clubs.
You dont do that. You just DONT.

They genuinely think they are the best club in the world and nothing is a step up from them. This goes from the top right down to the fans.
Its why they win stuff and we dont even though the playing staff are pretty equal talent wise.
Mentality is massive in football. It amazes me the amount of people who dont realize that.

In most fans eyes their club is the biggest,to me Everton would be the pinnacle of my career,to some one without any connection there is at least 5/6 clubs at least that are bigger just in England alone,any player with ambition should without doubt be aiming to play at the very top,but if Klopp had said the same about Coutinho people on here would be laughing,praise your players,yes,build up confidence,yes,but also build up the team and the club at the same time it was a silly thing to say especially after the manager just messed up tactically in a very one way game

@Papa Shango They win stuff because they spend double what we do on wages and transfers. City win more because they spend double what Liverpool do.
It's the young Everton fans I feel sorry for. The ones who want Lukaku written on their Everton shirts. The ones who love Everton and are the future of our club. They're growing up with the manager talking about Everton like that! It is beyond absurd. We should be growing our fanbase not dismantling any notion of us being a force to be reckoned with.
If you read the posts, you'll see that the vast majority are from people accepting that what Koeman said is true, but that it is not a great endorsement of his employers and does not help to market the club either to new or existing stakeholders.
It's great to be honest and not constantly use hyperbole, but sometimes you have to use a bit of tact. We've all had those occasions where your other half says 'what are you thinking about?'. You don't say 'this new girl in work who is an absolute stunner' do you? Sometimes telling the truth does more harm than good, and I think this is one of them.
