I am led to believe he won't like it one bit.I thought this was inevitable. Man Utd must have buckets of money, LVG spent £250 mill now Mourinho will spend the same again. I wonder what Bobby Charlton made of the appointment.
Is right MikeyWhat I don't want is for us to have a very short period where we win something with a bunch of overpaid mercenaries, only to then end up back right where we were once they leave
I want sustained success over decades
I want a manager to come in and create a dynasty using players from the youth set up, like Ferguson did with the class of 92
I want to pass down to future Evertonians a successful club
I don't want to be lamenting with kids in 20 years time that they've never seen us win anything, the way older supporters who remember the 80's have to do with me
You should want Everton to be successful FOREVER, not just once or twice in a 40 year period
The time for short termism is dead. We finally have the resources to build something that will last
We can afford to develop and hold on to this batch of young players
For the first time in decades, we control our own destiny
Yes, we'll need to make some big signings, of course we will, but we should be looking to promote from within also
If we'd had Moshiri's money a decade ago, we'd still have Rooney and would have probably built a title winning team around him
Now is the time to finally build the team you and I would have wanted to inherit
Not just you and me, but @nosejam , @Roztitute and others. Loyal blues who've seen us win naff all because we inherited a club on it's arse
Let's not let the next generation have to do likewise eh?
Let's build that dynasty
Let's get a manager in the vein of a Jogi Loew and let him build something amazing

Sad to see van Gaal go. Unlike most of the dullards in football, he's genuinely funny.
