This is down to you, you fraud.

I bet when he's here for the England game he's asked about the position we're in and tries to blag his way out of it.

He's killed us for years with his 'kin hopeless spending.
Our problems go WAY deeper then old moonhead, you must see this? Yeah, he's an utter spanner and a self-important bellend but its madness to lay all the blame on him. The situation we are in right now has been years in the making and has had many people contributing to the utter cluster muck we are in right now. There's plenty of blame to go around.

He destroyed the way the team was playing when he arrived when all he had to do was focus on the back four - either replace them or coach them. That left us without any sort of belief about who we were and what we wanted to achieve. This season's nightmare show was fundamentally down to that lack of purpose. The cash he spent was unfocussed and just a manic summer of throwing big fees at poor players....and they came in and found that the manager and players who were here already had no 'kin clue what the script was.

Koeman did that. Allardyce is just the clueless dinosaur who cant change things.

All of what you've typed about Koeman is true however you make it sound that everything was fine prior to last summer when it wasn't. We'd been crap for the two seasons prior to his arrivel. I'm perfectly happy to say he made a bad situation much worse but to pretend it was all down to him is nonsense. He destroyed the way the team was playing you say? This would be the team that delivered six home wins in 15-16 and seven the one prior correct?

He spent and wasted the once in a generation money we had off Stones and Lukaku and our opportunity to make a leap up to the next level went with it.

That was a game changer for this club. There's been nothing like it in terms of damage ever before. Koeman has broken us.
 
Koeman did a good job initially, cleaning up the mess Martinez made.Who knows if we kept the faith with him last October, or if Steve Walsh signed a replacement for Lukaku in time, then things might have been different.

Agree on this, which is why we need that sweep. What i don't understand is did any of the buys in the summer get questioned? Did anyone ask him who the new striker was going to be, did anyone ask him why was he getting rubbish from Fulhams reserve side to play in goal after spending 30m on a keeper, or whats the time scale to chase Siggy and do we have a cut off point where we say no and look for another player.
Was Walsh asking him whats going on, was he asking Walsh whats going on and who did they both have to answer to, as they both failed, but only one was sacked

Such a short sighted attitude. Yeah Koeman did squander a kings ransom and destroyed a chance for us to kick onto the next level but here's the reailty. Even if Koeman had invested the money wisely we'd still be crap and not of won anything. The losers mentality is so embedded and ingrained in this club from the very top down that we are doomed to always be woeful until certain parasites who run this club GTF and leave us alone. Think about this, it's been twenty-four years since we last won a trophy and in that time all we've been is varying degrees of crap who won nothing. Is Koeman responsible for that to? Is Martinez or Moyes responsible for it or is it a culture problem at the club?

So yeah, I'm ok saying Koeman has set us back years and squandered an opportunity for us to kick on but the suggestion that he's "broken us", a club that's been broken for going on thirty years and run by people who are happy for it to remain broken while they collect money from Sky and stupid fans like me who go the match anyway regardless of the continual failure is just madness.

I blame the board and their continual acceptance of mediocrity in exchange for no blame or questioning of them. The whole club is mired in a state of intertia at all levels. It'll take a huge personality with great drive and charisma to make change happen. That will probably be a manager, or a director of football or chairman. I don't see any of the current ones doing this at the moment. Add into that the playing staff seems to get away with the absolute minimum, we're really in rut.

Cultural problem now. As for Koeman, I honestly don't know what lessons have been learnt from his time in charge by anyone at the club, except maybe not to have red Christmas decorations.
