Ronald Koeman discussion

[royvernon39]

ell personality and a love of the club have nothing to do with ability have nothing to do with ability so that's just a silly argument to begin with

How the manager behaves and treats people is not important? Catterick was not liked a whole lot by his players but his teams played with desire. RK's team does not play with a sense of union.

Love of EFC? An employee know if his manager is passionate about his team or just views it as another professional gig. I bet you a quid you could detect the difference if Unsworth or Duncan Ferguson were in the dressing room or if it was RK.

As for things getting worse - EFC are practically out of the Europa League now; Top 6 looks difficult as the manager does not know how to play or who to select; and EFC have CFC in The League Cup away; a loss against Burnley and things can really start to smell.

As for making successful internal appointments there are loads of examples. That is part of my argument; there are no guarantees. RK costs the earth and looks like a rank amateur.

I hope Koeman turns it round.

I'm not too sure I agree with him about us "taking chances" and needing to go more route one. If he means "taking chances" is 5 yard square balls to each other then I don't class that as risk taking

In fact I'd say we are the least risk taking team out there, they are all look afraid to try and take a man on, only Vlasic on Thursday looked to do this.

Everton fans urging the team on when a player has 20 yards of space to run into isn't the same as demanding Ashley Williams punt it 60 yards upfield and hoping for a knockdown

I hope Koeman turns it round.

For the preservation of himself or just for the sake of the club?

If we were playing nice footy, having a proper go at teams, but still not getting the results, I think the fans wouid be more forgiving.

Also if we could understand what he is trying to do with his crazy team selections.

I fear it's too late though.

Always for Everton mate.

Don’t like seeing us struggle and the easiest way to sort it is for the man in charge now to do it.

Also if we could understand what he is trying to do would help too, with his crazy team selections.

Wins sort everything. It’s just hard to see where a run of them is going to come from at the minute.

I can easily deal with us playing a bit crappy as long as we win. But we’re not.

Hope we sort things out soon.

Aye, I was hoping for a 'win at any cost' game on Thursday. We can't even do that at the moment.

I'm hoping for the same on Sunday, anything less than a win will be devestating for morale.

This!

If he used a settled system/personnel then I'm sure the players would settle/gel quicker. I even think lukaku would struggle to get goals in this current set up! The problem is getting the ball into dangerous areas

Losing games then they are bunch of losers. Losing 3-6 or 0-3 means absolutely nothing. There is nothing nice unless Everton win matches.

I read on another teams forum that we have more or less the points expected of us given the teams we have played and on reflection this is probably true.

But the post above sums it up, the way we are playing is dreadful and that is down to the manager with his tactics and his purchases

Thanks Ronald, there's your car..... there's your keys..... now GTFO

Remember Kevin Keenan's Newcastle team ?

Expensively assembled squad, mad team selections and formations.

But wildly entertaining, even when they got humped.

Even if it was only fun for a short time, before it all went tits up.

Everything that we currently aren't at the moment.

* that's the last time I ever use Newcastle as an example of anything positive.

 

[eddy]

The game changer that is Lookman is always on the bench .........
Koeman is beggining to look lost

 

[ijjysmith]

I just hope he sorts it out.

We all want Everton winning at the end of the day.

 

[malmic]

Stop playing Sandro he is average Championship player

Play 1 of Rooney or Sig

Play Lookman

Ship Klassen

Stop being hard headed and reactive

Or else leave
