Ronald Koeman discussion

[bicycleheader]

What were you expecting him to have achieved in 15 months mate?

Personally not much really. I don't expect much in the full 36 months either though. As Khal says above I think this is the biggest job he will get at this point in his managerial career.

Who should be the next boss Mike? We are going to be desperate for a new one in two seasons time and will accept anything, so it's best to start the conversation now whilst we are relatively stable and still with some hope of better times.

I will be watching how Quique Setién does at Betis this season with a lot of interest, and if all goes well will start a thread in April. I hope to see you there.

That's a good question, and it really depends where we are at the end of Koeman's tenure. If we're regularly in the top 6 or so, we should be pushing for the likes of Tuchel, Sampaoli or someone. If we've gone backwards (mid table or lower) then it'll probably be someone of the Marco Silva/Eddie Howe calibre.

It would be amazing to have some loon like Sampaoli on the touchline, getting the lazy baxtards working at maximum and always moving forward. Would be a perfect match I think.

Marco Silva I'm watching aswell. Have a feeling he could be a lot better than the clubs on his CV would suggest.

I know people mock Eddie Howe for being English and a bit beige, but I actually think he's a really good manager. Wouldn't want him as the man to take us to the next level like, but to have Bournemouth finishing in the top half of the Premier League and actually playing good football with a mostly Championship quality squad, he definitely should be more appreciated.

I guess there is a fear of an attacking manager at a small club that regularly ship several goals in a game when the plan all goes wrong.......considering how it ended up with RM, but I'd agree he has done a great job.

He's perfect

Won something?

Will gain instant respect of players due to his prior achievements?

Known for doing well developing young players?

Known for playing good football?

Hungry to build something long lasting?

We should go in hard for him once Koeman leaves

I know. But he's had Bournemouth on an upward trajectory since he got there, whereas Martinez pretty much crippled Wigan by relegating them. There are certainly comparisons as far as defensive frailties go though.

Funny enough I was listening to a podcast yesterday and one of the questions sent in for the panel to answer was who is the most over rated manager on the planet?
The three answers given were Guardiola( which got a little bit of stick)and the other two were Koeman and Tuchel.
