Ronald Koeman discussion

[dannyboy]

I rate Vlasic, think he's going to be a great player for us.

I like him too and think he's got potential but I'd be very surprised if he does much this season. Impact player from the bench absolutely; starting games week in, week out? Not for me.

140M and we've gone backwards

Why on earth would anyone want to apologies to the biggest wum on this forum. This is the man who thought Martinez was superb.

Martinez was better than Koeman has been.

 

[Sona]

Team selection and formation smacks of someone who doesn't:

a) know his best eleven; and
b ) has no philosophy or system.

PICK ELEVEN PLAYERS IN ONE SHAPE AND STICK WITH IT!!

Impose our style on teams rather than adapting (poorly) every single week.

Martinez was better than Koeman has been.

Behave lad

...20 points at Christmas or we're certainly in doo doo.

Going to be a slog getting there I reckon .

 

[dannyboy]

This.

The unfortunate reality is that there is virtually no other options. People can scream for Kenny all they like but he's a kid who ought to be on loan in a lower division.

 

[trueblue84]

Anyone know why he persists with players like Calvert Lewin who just are not good enough, yet players like Lookman can't even get a sniff?

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Why can't the fans complain about terrible performances? Stupid statement from Koeman after a game like this..

Is that what he's said in his post match interview mate? I can't watch him anymore, he spouts as much bullshit as Martinez did after a game.

 

[toffee-L]

And I should add that once again the mentality of the playing staff is open to scrutiny. Our team, no matter who the manager, appear to be experts at winning games under no pressure but as soon as expectation is ramped up just a little their arses fall out. Must change if we have any hopes of progressing.

 

[Fansince1988]

IMO his time is up it isn't going to get better. I think he is actually a worse manager than Martinez.

 

[welshtoffee]

Walsh culpable too with recruitment.

Be interesting to know what his true views are, surely as DoF he would have more than a passing say in Koeman's future and/or any new appointment.

If they do sack Koeman and his cronies I just hope that Walsh is giving his marching orders to .

 

[Wat Tyler]

Selling Lukaku and not bringing in a replacement was scandalous, Koeman, Walsh, Moshiri, whoever, it was ridiculous.

I am worried now. Where are we getting goals from? Niasse and DCL have about 10 league goals between them. We could find ourselves in a relegation battle, that's how bad we are.

 

[dannyboy]

Anyone know why he persists with players like Calvert Lewin who just are not good enough, yet players like Lookman can't even get a sniff?

Because there's no other options up front?

 

[Moggers]

It's ridiculous if we haven't sounded him out.

Would be a long shot, but Moshiri needs to do something big.

Indeed, a very, very long shot but lets start acting like the big club we strive to be again.
