I come on specific threads to read relevant information not more manager discussions which has its own thread. It's getting very annoying.

This a thread about Virgil, not one for you to moan in and go off topic.

I can't see us signing him this month, not with a second leg of a semi final coming up.

That's as maybe, doesn't excuse bad language.

Think you're missing my point a tad pal.

Isn't it up to him to enthuse us and make a fist of it to get us on board? He's made it plain what he thinks of this club: he sees it as a stepping stone for our players, and his demeanour suggests he too thinks he's a cut above us (which if you really want to know is the core of my problem with him - who the 'kin hell does this feller think he's being employed by here? We were pioneering football when his beloved Ajax and Barcelona were begging for mediocre English, Scottish and Irish coaches to teach them how to kick a ball straight).

As said, I'll never call or get behind a call by others to sack him almost no matter what happens in his first season, but there is a cut off point for that and it's autumn next season as far as I'm concerned. A season and third is easily enough time to get things on track...many new managers hit the ground running. But his football is turd and I dont think in the intervening period between now and next autumn that should go unsaid.

Simple as that really. No hypocrisy on my part whatsoever.

For pity sake, take this to the Koeman thread... It's off topic here in the van Dijk thread !!!

To be fair to @davek it's not him who is starting it. He has been telling people to discuss it in the Martinez thread.

@Groucho witnessed it in another thread.

I respect your views on Martinez Dave and don't want to drag it back to him.

But, you have previously said that Koeman should be given time. I think you said until next Christmas to judge him.

But since he has arrived you haven't had a positive word to say about him. It's fair enough to say you will give him time but I actually think Evertonians should get behind the bloke until such time as he deserves to be judged (in your view Christmas).

By constantly moaning about everything, not even saying anything positive when we win, being negative about signings like Schneiderlin, you are definitely not "getting behind him". You arn't even trying.

So when you pop up on threads, usually being negative, people struggle to reconcile that with the unwavering support you gave Martinez last year and think you are being a hypocrite.

Off topic, take this to the Koeman thread !

Is it just @The Esk and WRD (?) who have mentioned they think weve bid £40mil for him?

Ive missed all the quotes etc...been on a trip.

Stay on topic please.

This is a thread on VVD, not an English grammar lesson.

Thanks.
