A Fresh Start For Each And All?

[blue61]

This is the season to let the younguns grow a little bit. I highly doubt we are competing for anything significant now.

Apart from our premiership status.

We are not getting relegated. We'd have to be REALLLY REALLLLY BAD and that won't happen. Coleman and Bolasie will come back soon and we will get reinforcement in January. Fear not

If we weren’t really, really bad we wouldn’t have have sacked our manager 9 games into a new season.

I get that players and managers fall out. What I dont get is the fact he decided he should shaft his boyhood club out of a potetially big transfer fee by letting his contract run down. That doesnt hurt Koeman it hurts the club and the fans. He could of signed that deal and still got his move...he chose not to, made it perfectly clear he wanted out and travelled to london for a medical (whether it happened or not). That is what I mean by 'antics'. It just doesnt sit right with me. Now every1 is like all is forgiven come back lad...na not me. Maybe we should agree to disagree on this one?

that's on way of looking at it, another could be that he was looking to reassess whether his relationship with koeman changed before deciding to move on. None of us know except Barkley himself. I would love him to stay, desperately missing his ability in the team.

Martina and Williams apart, a fresh start for all. It is impossible that there are no U23 / U18 kids that offer a viable alternative to that pair of busted flushes. If indeed there are no better alternative then things are bleak indeed.

I believe Koeman was the biggest factor in that with the 10 dilemma. It would be hard to have a worse go than Koeman did this season

..I don’t get all of this fan stuff. If individuals and players perform there’s no better place to play footy. The fans are amazing in my opinion.

Well said mate. Over 600 for a season ticket. I think we’re entitled to the odd whinge.

Well , we’re about to find that out aren’t we.

I can't see the future mate lol. I think we will be much better in a couple of weeks. It will be baby steps, sure. But often times manager switches and January signings spark a reaction from the players. I expect the players to react.

It should be a case of everyone having a fair shake (except Martina, obviously, he should hand over his locker key now). Hopefully, the fans will give the players and the new boss (interim or otherwise) their full support, at least for a few weeks.

Now that Koeman is out the way we will find out if he will sign again or shaft his boyhood club.

No excuses now but with some people even if he dumps on their door step in will never be his fault

it doesn't take a whole lot to get Goodison buzzing and behind the team

I agree you usually get the bounce back effect for a month or two , but when it eventually settles back you can end up with exactly the same problems and in our case it would occur with half the season still to play. Concerning times, I feel.
Much depends on the quality of the manager we appoint. I’ve got my hopes pinned on Thomas Tuchel, personally.

First Rooney and now Moyes, hardly a "Fresh start".
