Ronald Koeman discussion

[Osamabindiesel]

It's almost if Koeman went into the window thinking "how can I make this team mine?" rather than "how can I make this team stronger?"

And people still want this clown in after seeing that shambolic team selection? We're going nowhere with this feller in charge, period. Somehow he's managed to be more negative than Moyes, that's quite something.

Not sure how we are going to get up the pitch,backs to the wall we are going to hope pickford has the game of his life and hopefully a bit of luck

 

[tim cahill]

He was lying about not playing Davies then...

 

[efcjames]

Sigurdsson up front hahahahahah

 

[tim cahill]

I think that's a balanced team to be honest. Lacking pace up front big time but I can see why he's set them up like that.

It can't be worse than the last performance...

Can it?...

For me this is the worst part of the recent season's, Martinez had such a good foundation but killed it, the job Koeman has been asked to do is massive but he has had the backing.
The budget was there to build a good team but we seemed to go out and buy a load of decent players but with no thought about how they were going to work together

Agreed mate. Only thing I'd say is the board don't appear to have backed him in terms of a striker, which he did say publicly we needed. Then again, even that wouldn't fix how disjointed we look as a team.

Is that the slowest line up in premier league history?

While there may be some element of truth in this, it's naive to solely blame the board and the lack of a striker for our recent failings on the pitch.

He also knew that Rom was off and clearly we prioritised the acquisition of other targets over a striker, or felt overly confident that we'd get one.

He's the manager (not a head coach like Conte et al.) and regardless of other individuals responsibilities, he should shoulder some of the blame.

I'm starting to think he's doing it deliberately now, so he can get the boot and walk away with his compo

 

[Niapper]

get someone that does not hooooooooof

 

[faddy the blue]

Back the boys on the pitch no matter what! Onwards an upwards!

More like sideways and backwards.

No..that's next week.

[Gladystweet]

We don't need pace. We're only playing in one half today.....
