Everton are still unbeaten under the stewardship of Ronald Koeman, since he arrived from Southampton.
Phil Neville and Jamie Carragher have agreed on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football, which was broadcast on 13th September, that Everton made the signing of the summer by appointing Ronald Koeman as their new manager.
Everton persuaded Koeman to move from Southampton to Goodison Park to replace Roberto Martinez and his impact has already been clear.
Koeman’s side have started the season in impressive fashion – after winning three of their first four matches.
Everton are currently in third spot in the embryonic Premier League table, and the Sky Sports pundits were raving about the Dutch boss’s arrival on Merseyside.
“To bring in somebody of Ronald Koeman, I think it was the best signing of the summer,” Neville said.
“As Phil just mentioned, the best signing of the summer was Ronald Koeman. Over the last two years, no manager has done a better job than him,” Carragher added.
Koeman impressed during his time at Southampton, where he helped the south coast club to finish in the top half of the table despite losing many of his top talents.
Everton, on the other hand, kept hold of most their key players this summer – and their ambition is already paying off.
The Toffees appear to have a chance of competing for Europe this term, with their attacking play catching the eye.
Everton tore apart Sunderland to win 3-0 yesterday, and they could move to the top of the table if they are able to beat Middlesbrough at Goodison Park in their next match.
