Koeman Out snap poll

[Brisan123]

As I've said if he loses any of these games then I'd want him gone. But as things are going the way we are playing, how we are setup and preparing for games he probably should go even if we win the next 2.

The problem is of course that he won't get sacked because we have Kenwright at the helm still. it's that simple. While he is still a figure at Everton along with Woods and Elstone the club will not progress on the pitch. Moshiri needs to grow some balls and get some people in with some ambition to make tough decisions.

We got away with it against Bournemouth because of a good save by Pickford against Defoe and Niasse rescued us. Last night with our quartet of #10s, no width, no pace and no attacking focal point surprisingly we didn't get away with it.

Oh and get rid of that waste of space Walsh too. Really don't understand why that hasn't happened yet.

Agree with everything bar the last sentence
We have no idea who Walsh wanted to sign and who RK vetoed

Don't be silly humans.

Our current lack of Cavani is costing us dearly.

Not Koeman's fault.

 

[Who's_up_for_cumpkins?]

I think a reasonable level of ambition for everton at this time is to aim to win a cup, any will do to start, even the league cup. The question is can you envisage that happening under Koeman? Personally I cannot, and for that reason he goes. The sooner the better.

 

[dholliday]

If we're being honest. He's been underwhelming since he got here. Lukaku's goals papered over a lot of cracks last season. Now he's gone we're seeing he's not able to pick a balanced team which suits the players he has.

I think this is a really important point. We can all agree without Rom's goals last season we wouldn't have scored nearly so many (say had we Kone or anyone else upfront instead), and without those goals we'd have finished well bottom-half.

Now add that we are playing worse as a unit now due to severe imbalance in the midfield and lack of focal point upfront, plus the crisis in confidence due to shocking results & performances = it all makes a relegation battle the most likely scenario for this season.

So I'm not surprised the majority of blues want him out. There's just no sign we'll improve.

Let's have the new manager poll, where 98% vote Ancellotti. Can't wait

Funny, but if Unsworth is an option in the poll I think it will be a lot closer.

Not Koeman's fault.

Regardless of who or who isnt to blame for not signing a forward what is Koeman's fault is repeatedly playing without width and playing two defensive midfielders who couldnt find their arse with both hands!

 

[Abraders]

I voted no..... for now. Purely on the basis that it's more on our Director of Football for the failure to get in a centre-forward to replace Lukaku.

However, Koeman's insistence on trying to squeeze Klaassen, Rooney and Sigurdsson into the same team whilst for the most part ignoring pace and width in the form of Lookman, Mirallas, and Vlasic, is infuriating to say the least. And the whole Oumar Niasse saga over the past twelve months, ostracising him from the team, essentially being forced to bring him back to the fold and seeing him out-perform his signings, must be embarrassing for him to say the least.

If we were playing well every game and mot scoring/ coming short then sure, I could put some blame on not having bought that clinical striker.

But the truth is we could have signed Costa or Cavani and we'd be in the same situation if we were playing like we are now. Utterly terrible from back to front.

true. That would also be the realistic choice. I think right now It will be unrealistic, to atract a former Bayern manager.

 

[bol-uk]

He needs to stop sticking with his buys. He insists on playing them even though there is clearly other options.

 

[smileychap]

I wasn't impressed we signed a middling manager with little pedigree for a supposed ambitious club like ourselves, but after finishing 7th and spending all that money you want to give the fella a chance...

But those awful performances against the big clubs, disastrous results, amateurish decision-making and now looking already out of Europe, he has to go if we have any genuine claims of ambition. Honestly Martinez's latter two seasons were better than this.

Give Unsworth the Burnley game, and if we can't get Ancelotti then Dave gets the rest of the season.

What do yous think? Too harsh too soon? Snap poll time.

Ancelotti has a great knack of picking up and improving existing squads, something he'd need to do here because I don't think anyone's getting another 150m to blow anytime soon.

To be honest, for me, straight to David Unsworth end of season.

 

[People75]

I voted "no".
Still we won the last PL game, and i want to wait and see, what the next games bring.

The euro league is game over. No need to use any more energy on that, as long as we play like we play.

 

[bitter-no-better]

Not at the moment. The plus side for me is him getting rid of a lot of dross last season from the squad. The other plus is the younger players being brought into the team who need more playing time and patience. The main issue i have with Koeman is the lack of width in the team above anything else.

Add a fit Coleman, Barkley and Bolasie into the squad with a striker in January then we should only have reason to complain if results are not as expected.

 

[bluestevon]

true. That would also be the realistic choice. I think right now It will be unrealistic, to atract a former Bayern manager.

Newcastle hired a manager whose prior job was Real Madrid mate.

If you offered Ancelotti the job for a couple of years on a good salary and with the funding in place to back him in January and the following summer then he'd probably take it - he's not one who likes to spend time out of work by his history

Won't happen ofc

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

I've voted no, but I'm on the cusp.

Sunday is a massive game for him.
