Play him right back. Fed up seeing Holgate stinking the place out.

What did Holgate do wrong today?
It's what he doesn't do. No drive no energy no quality. We're spoiled with Coleman.
Defensively he got targeted and stood up to the task. I think Davies would have got tortured if he played there especially when Izquierdo came on.

Agreed. He’s obviously not the finished player yet but if he’s having one of his bad games sub him.
But has to start at the minute.

Unreal to me that Koeman started to undermine Davies toward the end of last season when he hardly put a foot wrong...just because he was preparing the way for his fellow Dutch flop Klaassen.
Well that went well.
I look forward to the day when the pair of them are punted.

Well I’m not finishing Klaassen off quite yet. We’ve seen players from other leagues take ages to settle. Fingers crossed same for him.
But I’d play Davies with Gana. Gana to sit a little, with Davies pushing on.

Holgate was playing admirably today all things considered.
Even showed a bit of skill and almost scored.
Better than Cuco, defensively sound and though his attacking isn't top notch - he is primarily a centre back
Painful to see Koeman's treatment of him and the other younger players. He's done absolutely nothing wrong that Gana and Schneiderlin haven't been doing for 8+ weeks.
I think Koeman will go first Dave and possibly Klaassen will get a chance with the new manager ( if not Unsworth ) being played correctly and then we'll do a straight swap with Watford and get Cleverley back lol
In my opinion it's Koeman or Davies, Lookman, Barkley etc - he has to go (Koeman that is).

Agreed. Remarkable that Koeman can't see this and continues to persevere with Gana/Schneiderlin.

Barkley and Davies were the stars of the show last season and pulled Koeman's sorry arse out of danger then....his conclusion regarding that was to go all out to alienate the pair of them in an effort to progress us.
The feller is spiteful and vindictive, but most importantly of all he's a bit thick.
I remember Gullit telling stories about Koeman going for his badges after he stopped playing and using coloured markers to help him along on the course. The more I think of it it makes sense that he's not the sharpest tool in the box.
It's shocking mate, i think he's a bit of a bully to be honest. No coincidence that his public criticism of individuals always seems to be the younger players. He's blown almost £70 million on replacements for Davies and Barkley, players who aren't as good as them. In terms of wasting money this guy takes the biscuit.
