Ronald Koeman discussion

[Lob]

There doesn't look to be anyway back for Ronald now. He looks severely stressed and a beaten man. Feel a bit sorry for him actually and i was praying for a win tonight to try and turn things round. It was a really sad sight seeing the players mass brawling and frustrated fans trying to hit Lyon players. The board needs to pull the plug a.s.a.p before any more damage is done. It is only going to get worse. Best thing would be to put Rhino in charge temporarily until a new manager can be found.

Our best performance for some time and Lyon still should of slotted 4-5 past us. Says it all.

Really worrying, especially if there isn't much money there to freshen up the squad. Who would we get more than £20m for in that squad?

Barkley and rumours suggest lookman maybe on his way out. Throw Sandro into the mix, between them we might get 40m for them and put it all down on a striker.

That side is in desperate trouble, no pattern to the play, can't keep a clean sheet or look a force going forward, we can't afford to stick with him for to much longer.

We won't be beating Arsenal with Koeman in our dug out.He's a dead man walking.I think Koeman needs to be flung out of Finch Farm on his ass asap.

I would be very surprised if Koeman goes before the end of the season, and unless we are still hovering above the bottom three then even at that point, knowing Kenwright's track record, i wouldn't expect him to go before the end of the season. Koeman and Walsh did a pretty good job last season, let's not forget it. Things have come unstuck somewhat, and the failure to bring in a couple of class strikers is a major factor, but we've also got a squad decimated by injuries to key players, and that's no fault of the managerial team. One of the biggest criticisms i would direct at Koeman is his failure to play Lookman until tonight, he is an asset we have sorely needed on the pitch, regardless of his youth and inexperience.

I don't see it, mate. Barkley's contract is pretty much up, Lookman and Sandro? £15m tops for both of them in my opinion.

Any more and we've done well, even in today's market.

 

[blue to the bone]

This is as bad or even worse then when martinez was here. A good first season, signs of a demise on season two but at least we were very good in the group stages of the Europa. We are currently terrible. Defensively and goin forward.
It moshiri called the sacking of martinez he surely has to pull the trigger here as well. Because it's not goin to turn around

 

[Neiler]

It always goes wrong once our managers are linked with Barcelona.

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

It's only a matter of time at this stage. Koeman is a dead man walking, it's simply a question of if he gets sacked before Leicester or after now.

 

[crockyblue79]

Every single one of Koeman's buys have been a flop,some even bordering on atrocious buys,at least Martinez brought Lukaku here and efficient reliable players such as Barry,Mccarthy,Lennon and the occasionally brilliant Delafeou. We are now just a team made up of run of the mill foreigners.

 

[maccavennie]

Tonight is game 1 of 3 which will make or break his future. Worst case scenario happened and we have basically been elimated out of the EL.

Its just a matter of when not if isn't it

Lookman is U23, a youth international and English. He’d get over £15m alone.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

You'll have to get me very drunk to watch another Everton game with this man in charge.

Hmmm, whoever is paying that is taking a punt.
