Ronald Koeman discussion

[MikeH72]

Nothing Moyes didn't do. In fact Fellaini gave Martinez his Lukaku fund and Stones has given us 47 mill. Glad to see you recognising managers who are good in the transfer window. Let's not mention Niasse.

Martinez wasn't a Niasse signing mate, this has already been established in the Martinez Belgium thread.

I'd heard that.

*taps nose*

I fear for Deulofeu.

I think this kid's career will be badly affected under Koeman, and it'll be one of the most controversial issues of his first season here.

This is going to be the best one to vault for sure

Defo.

If Deulofeu is involved in a Koeman outfit then the footballing side of things is going to be just fine.

I just fear we're in for a team top heavy with athletes and working hard, and short on finesse.

How though? It's possible to have both you know. The great Dutch team that Koeman was part of were exactly that, the perfect blend. Unless you're Barcelona you have to have a degree of physicality to be successful.

Why would Niasse sign Martinez?

Dave...just out of interest...what will be different to Deulefeu being left out by Koeman, to the same player being left out by Martinez?

Koeman won't tell everyone how phenomenal Del is whilst not playing him.

Deulofeu will be gone by this time next year, massively over rated and still unfit.

How did what I wrote sound like I didn't want balance in that respect? I said I fear there may be an imbalance if the likes of Deulofeu are marginalised/unused.

I dont understand the question. First season here he played 25 times in a season where he picked up an injury and had to go back to Barcelona. Second season of Martinez's he wasn't allowed here and was in Spain. Third season he played 28 times.

I think you'll have to redefine the term 'being left out'.
