Can't be any worse than Valenca could he?

You continue to defend a manager who couldn't do the basics mentioned above like organize a defence and practice corners. But you have an agenda against a manager who has had 13 games with mostly last seasons team and you seem more concerned about what he says in the press and twitter.

Give me honesty any day of the week rather that the crap we were sold for the last few years

Our defending set pieces has got no better, maybe worst, which was particularly hard to do considering Martinez openly admitted he didn't see it as important and never practiced it. The times ran an article this week about only 3 teams being worst than us at set pieces.

Koeman on the other hand, I was under the impression it was his forte as it's certainly not attacking football.

I think we can probably the same for our fitness, which also has got worst, and defending in general.

He's right. I wouldn't get out of bed if she was lying next to me

Walsh is also surely worth a run out in Barry's place. We are sorely lacking a deep lying playmaker although Barkley may well blossom there. If he learns how to tackle of course like.

have to ask Santa for that....

I will give him more than 13 games before calling for his head. Im not happy with our form but wasn't expecting us to be where we are tbh.
Take jags out of the 13 games and who knows how we would be. RK takes some blame for leaving him in the last few weeks

No mate. Back four fixed is easy:

Buy a commanding keeper who's a proper first team player and not a has been who can't secure a starting place elsewhere.
Play a back four of Coleman/Holgate---Williams----Mori-----Galloway.
Play Gueye in front of them in a Carsley type role.

That would have been a secure back four even without bringing in a new CB.

Can I have my £6m per season now?

Ive been saying this for donkeys...we can split the £6mil

I dont want his version of honesty - the one where he claims fitness levels going up and defensive solidity since he arrived. It's BS.

This time last season we'd scored 24, conceded 16, and had 20 points; this season we've scored 16, conceded 15, and have 19 points....a better start under a manager who couldn't do the basics like organize and practice corners or set up to defend. Kpoeman has vome in to improve us. THAT isn't improving us really is it?

Less time yapping about his 'improvements' since he's been here (5 months), less time telling the players they're not up to it, and more time coaching.

It;s really not hard to see it.

Martinez stumbled upon a flatter back four early last season and got the rewards. He ditched the players who provided it and/or they suffered injury and the stability gained from it was gone.

I respect my 5 year daughters opinion on football rather than read yours so we will leave it there .

Ok here it is with Koeman that gets on my tits every bit as much as the rubbish football slop he's served up so far: he comes into this club and expects this institution to take his way of operating on the chin and simply roll over like we're friggin Southampton or some half arsed outfit. Im sorry, but the "I'm a Dutch football
personality, I'm plain talking and I say what I like" won't do here.

He fits in with us, not the other way around.

Someone needs to fill the bottom of that red Christmas tree of his up with half a dozen Everton history books and tell him to have them read by New Years Day.
