Yes basically. It wasn't a threat but he stated that's the business of football. Ross has to do whats best for him and the Club has to do the same. The ball will be in Ross Barkley court as Koeman has said the club wants him to stay.

Just my opinion, but think what koeman said was directly aimed at Ross to tell him the reality, rather than maybe what his agents been saying to him about delaying to get a better contract etc, with the agent obviously wanting a move for commission.
Hopefully it has the desired result of Ross telling his agent to get it done now. Don't believe for a second the lad wants to leave, but if his agent can twist the situation then he could manipulate such a move, spot on for koeman laying it out in plain speak for the lad.

I feel like this gets exaggerated. A tiny minority wanted him sold. A few fans got on his back sometimes out of frustration. The vast majority have supported him completely from minute one.
It's annoying that the media will only pick up on a few groans for a misplaced pass, and completely ignore all the banners or how often the Gwladys Street sings his name.
What does "Greek him" mean, Kith?
Is that some sort of torture your Bubble ancestors inflicted on Persian captives in the time of Alexander
It's means to make love to him. In the winter the Greek males are known for homosexuality.

He plays all across the front 2/3 behind the striker, fluid interchange which seems to be the go in a Koeman team.
Barkley, Kev, Calvert Lewin and Lookman e.t.c all move pretty fluidly in between those positions.
As to whether he's better than Kev, here's the stats in a team that finished below us last season and will do so again this season.
This season Kev averages an assist and a goal (4 of each) in every 370 minutes of PL football.
Siggy averages a goal (8) every 317 minutes, and an assist (11) every 228 minutes. Notably more productive.
Comparing last season Sigurdsson averaged a goal every 265 minutes (11) and an assist every 1458 minutes (2)
Mirallas averaged a goal every 250 minutes (4) and an assist every 500 minutes (2).
All that is telling me, as well as what I've seen of both players with my own eyes is that Siggurdsson is the better player, and younger at that too.

I thought it was to fiddle little boys, or are we not going to mention that side of ' historical greeking'
As I'm sure most teams do mate.
There's an offer on the table apparently, so we'll see.
It should've been sorted but I'm still seeing little to be worried about.

Its true this but people are still we have Everton of 15 years ago budgets, even before Moshiri came we had turned it around so we didnt have to lose players, unless it was a crazy deal like the Fellaini one. If we do sell Ross you can be sure it will be for a hugh OTT sum, we call the shots on these things in a strong way, we have done for years.
Saying that I still dont think we will sell him unless we decide we want to.

conjecture...Well, who'd a thunk it
Not particularly.
He said explicitly that it wasn't an ultimatum, but, if Ross doesn't sign a deal then if a big offer comes in then things may change.
He then said that he's spoken to Ross about the new deal and that it's up to the board and player to come to an agreement.
There's a deal in the offing. Definitely.
Alli is more Lampard - i.e. not really a playmaker in the natural sense, but ideal as a no.10 as he has great positional awareness and a real poachers instinct.
Ross is better on the ball I'd say in terms of his ability with passing, take-ons etc, but is more effective dictating the play.
Two very different types of players.
It is 99.9999% certain
Soon to be drawn up, ready and awaiting the Lost Biro Of Goodison
I think we should all offer St. Anthony an alm
