What's the crowd like ???

 

[Tubey]

Rooney. Of course it is.

Koeman out for me.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Rooney to add pace and width

 

[Bluerover]

Why can none of our team win a header?

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Rooney coming on.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Rooney will come on for Niasse.

There'll be a few jeers if that's the case

Have we had a shot since the 20th minute?

 

[muddy mudguard]

No, it definitely reflects worse on Koeman. A myth of a manager, did okay in Netherlands, barely anything else since. Tactically really doesn’t seem to have a clue and doesn’t seem to be aware of how players fit into systems. Boggling he’s anywhere near a club with ambition

I’ll have to beg to differ. He’s not a bad manager by any stretch. He guided Saints to 6th (I think) which is no mean feat.
I’ll agree that he’s not without blame for the squads lack of confidence but he also brings in folks to work on specifics like psyche, id question his judgement on those fellas.
I’d also question him on why he doesn’t start Davies, but to lay the blame entirely at his feet is not quite right.

Course not.

This is some kind of cruel joke they're playing on us.

 

[Lee Smith]

So this is rock bottom..

I'm sure Koeman has a bit further to go unfortunately

 

[Verbal Kint]

Remember people scoffed at me for suggesting Robbie Brady, better than anyone we have today. Shambles

 

[peteblue]

First decent ball in.....

 

[maccavennie]

Should have done better Oumar
