Ronald Koeman discussion

[Zatara]

Did i say perfect?.Is 1 in 9 the same as 5 in 13, and would you please remind me of when he belittle'd the club

'1 in 9 is the same as 5 in 13'

Que?

Surely i dont need to remind you of him saying our most valuable player would waste his career if he didnt move to a top side.

Remind me of how many prem. clubs you have managed. Personally i think Koeman is exactly what Everton football club is crying out for. A straight talking manager who is not concerned if he upsets some of the bedwetters, he needs to cleanse the club of all the bullshit and poor practices of the last 3 years. He is here to be succesfull and given time he will achieve that

We were winning then though mate, now we're losing the tune changes.

It's not just the losing/drawing of games it is the manner we are losing/drawing

I don't think there has been a game were I thought we were unlucky not get get more than that, also not a game I have thought played some great football

My concern there is no real plan, unless it is hit it long....

We can all see how Koeman wants to play just isn't working, so the lack of any plan B is worrying.

 

[Carlito]

Think the good thing about our fans mate is that we'd be more forgiving towards Koeman if he played the likes of Davies and Holgate tomorrow and it didn't work out.

I agree. I think a lot of the frustration is a result of him picking the same players every week, despite saying himself that they're not good enough.

I reckon the fans would back him through a period of indifferent results if there was evidence of him taking a hard line with underperformers.

Agree mate.

We have to get rid of the two winger approach it isn't working. It will take a total drubbing before we change I fear. It could happen tomorrow. Watching today's games has me a little depressed most teams seem up for it.

Problem is our plan A in the main is what most teams use as their Plan B

So for us there is no plan B unless it is flood the team with any forward type player we have for the last 10mins

I think we'll see it tomorrow mate when Cleverley comes in for Lennon.

I thought bringin Lennon in would give him the winger plus a good player at closing down, I am not a massive fan of Lennon but when he has played in the past he has worked hard for the team

Even he looked lacklustre in the games he has started

Cleanse the club. Sounds very biblical that. Just three points will do for now...if the Messiah can manage it like.

Oh well, if we lose we know it will all be Cleverlys fault

 

[davek]

If by some miracle we win tomorrow we are in 6th place.

Its totally bizarre.

We better had win. 9 games and one win, that needs stopping in its tracks before it becomes a runaway train. We're at home and I expect a big performance against a team who it aren't exactly tough getting motivated to face.

Maybe that's Koeman's plan B mate, bring Cleverley in to take all the fume away from him.

But there is a plan, Koeman has elucidated many times already how he envisages a game to be played high energy, pressing etc. You can also if you wish examine the tactics Soton used under his command. Problem is coaching the players who can operate it or ,as now seems likely, bringing in players who can. Time it's going to take time and we will have to be patient I'm afraid.
