newsted Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Stones wants to leave. Why did Koeman join a selling club man. From Southampton? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 That's my point. People were saying he was right to go to Everton from Southampton because they're just a selling club, yet in reality Everton are just the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, one player wanting to leave a club doesn't exactly mean they are a selling club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Doubt they'll keep ahold of Cleverley much longer either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Their history suggests they are though. History suggests players should go to us, Forest, Leeds, Villa rather than Leicester. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Even though Southampton are very well ran I think Everton have a higher ceiling than them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Even though Southampton are very well ran I think Everton have a higher ceiling than them. I don't. Southampton own vast land around St. Mary's and are going to develop it into academies, sports science centres etc. Everton are a big old club in the traditional sense but they need a new stadium and are forever in the shadows of Liverpool. Everton would need an Abramovice type owner to eclipse their rather limited ceiling, Southampton don't as they are showing. That's the difference for me.

Tooj Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Southampton seem to be setup more of a business though and are happy to turnover players. The new Everton owner seems to have quite a bit more ambition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Not denying how great Southampton's youth setup is though. Would love us to be able to get anywhere near that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new Everton owner seems to have quite a bit more ambition. Their model is a very successful one all over Europe and it seems to work in the Premier League if you have the correct scouting to replace outgoing players and the right kind of coach to well, coach them. I wasn't aware Everton had been taken over, btw so their ceiling may well rise in the future. Looking at both clubs as things stand though I'd rather join Southampton as a player or manager and as an investor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Bollocks to that. I've had shits with more footballing charisma than So'ton FC and their identikit ground and city. Southampton have a decent academy, but to be fair they are the only one south of London who are able to develope the kids. Newcastle should be training kids in the North East and Cumbria (possibly North Yorkshire as well), but Sunderland and Boro have much better set up academies. With Rafa in charge that should change in the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sounds like bollocks, their ground is on quite a constrained site. Railway line then housing to the immediate west, the river Itchen to the east etc. They have also just opened their new training centre and academy buildings in the last two years.
