Our Next 5 Games: Make or Break for Koeman?

[Khalekan]

Who would people realistically want to replace him??

The Watford bloke.

 

[blue to the bone]

He won't be sacked this season. But if he doesn't improve just because he has a long contract is no reason keep him.
A young ambitious manager with a proven record is what we need. Not a well travelled guy on a fat contract

I remember when people were worried about us being in a relegation scrap under Martinez.

We were far worse than this and we finished mid-table.

There are at least 10 sides we are superior to and will finish above this season.

Nobody has thought that far ahead mate. They just know they want Koeman out.

I am interested to hear names. Koeman isn't convincing anyone right now but I struggle to think who we could attract and who there even is we could go for.

Lose a few more though mate and make no mistake, we will be in the dog fight. I know its all conjecture at the moment and I personally doubt we will be, but this slide needs arresting... Quickly... Slice an dice it how we want but 'at the moment' its no better than Martinez.

This question always massively annoys me. It's always the deniers first response to calls to replace the manager. Not saying you're doing it here, like. I just can't stand the 'better the devil you know' standpoint.

No doubt we'll hear lots of calls for the latest managerial flavour of the month in Eddie Howe or the Watford manager (they beat us so he must be good!). The truth is that there isn't anybody good enough currently available which is why we went after Koeman in the first place.

Sorry if it annoyed you.

Who would you replace him with ?

 

[Tree13]

Martinez was given three years, despite clearly being proved useless after two.

Koeman is 15 game into fixing the mess, and people want him gone?

Get a grip. Look at the squad we have, remember who assembled most of it, and get a grip. Koeman is here until at LEAST Christmas 2017.

I don't know. But it's no reason to stick with a failing manager.

(fwiw much as I thoroughly dislike Koeman right now, he gets til season end from me)
