Ronald Koeman discussion

[dannyboy]

For a club our size, it's appalling, shocking, horrendous, diabolical, unworthy,any other term you care to throw at it. It is not good enough.

Stop making excuses, he doesn't deserve it!

Unfortunately being in 9th place after a bad run of form is about right for a club our size.

We of all fans are normally patient, where has that ever got us. we claim to have money now so let us act like we have some ambition.

Unless it's all a lie of course.

Lets be honest he wasnt really backed in the Summer, our owner has even admitted he gave them 7 names and they only got 4.

The whole squad looks like somebody died, theres no spark in any of them, I think hes been cracking heads and I dont think they like it.

Cue the "hes lost the dressing room" shouts, but hey ho, as Mosh said, hes ruthless, he will just buy new players.

Not a wum.

My mate works at Finch Farm .He said in training they all look very happy and appear to work hard, unlike the end of the Martinez reign when there was a cloud over the place. Could it be that some players are past it, some aren't arsed and some simply aren't good enough ?

It's football. A lucky deflection against Arsenal, a derby hattrick for Lukaku and we're on top of the world again.

pass me the crack pipe...

To be fair he can only do so much in January with regards bringing new players in.

However, he can start to kick a few 'ken heads around the place...which he doesn't seem to be doing or he hasn't got the staff around him to do it?

Being patient is a nonsense to be fair. It results in stagnant mediocrity and charlatans like BK staying for well over a decade.

Being patient is what no marks do.

The league position isn't the problem it's 1 win in 12 and falling that concerns me.

Any good team starts with a good goalkeeper.

It was criminal to bring in Stek only. That lies squarely at Ron's door.

Hope to god you are correct dude.

They're beyond motivation, it's a lost cause. If Koeman is a long ball manager, I didn't see it at Southampton.

He hasn't lost the dressing room, the dressing room has lost him and on the performances you can't really blame him. Would rather Koeman recognise the squad is appalling and ruthlessly replace them with new additions then motivate a lost cause. This is a squad three quarters of which have proved they are serial losers, a mix of relegation fodder, players set for retirement and rejects.

We play like a team that has won 1 game in 10.

Its really that simple.

A few wins will lift the mood, in order to win we need to lift the mood.

Chicken and egg.

We're due a couple of good performances then. Clearly saving them for Arsenal and Liverpool

City are on a shocking run. It happens. If we go into mid January and this form has continued then I'll be sitting up thinking we're in trouble. Right now I'm more than happy to give him time to sort it out.

I didn't want him in the first place but he's here now so we've got to make the most of it.

[dholliday]

Why are we taking the first 5 games out of the equation? Why not take the last 5 out instead?

72 points tho'

Often seems that playing a young player can help with that - their youthful enthusiasm can give the rest of the squad a pick-me-up.

Of course if it goes pear shaped then you have the same problems plus a youngster who has a confidence crisis...
