Ronald Koeman discussion

Not open for further replies.
RK has been a big let-down so far but it could have been much worse. He could have bought Sissoko for big money on massive wages. I thought he was poor at Newcastle and actually produced little in the Euros other than a couple of mazy runs.

But his two big failures will be the lack of support for Lukaku up-front and secondly the failure to play young, good players to give a team that lacks a strong work ethic a boost. Why is Miralles still playing, for example?
 
Not having Deulofeu anymore. The kid believes his own hype because he's come from Barcelona. Hasn't tried a leg for us all season, which is a huge shame because he's obviously talented. Bin him off.


You wha?

He busted a gut today and dragged us back into the game.

I hope he plays on Tuesday night, in that central position he moved to in the second half when he galvanised the side into attempting a comeback.

We need to see more of the boy, not less.

Where's Wally
Where's Ronny
 
Did he really do this, bit daft if so especially given the quality of football he himself has been delivering to date.

After being outplayed on the pitch, the Dutchman failed to cover himself in glory after the match either. Rightly furious at his team letting a 1-0 lead become a 3-1 deficit before Romelu Lukaku’s second restored a sheen of credibility, he described his team as “reactive, not proactive”. But he also saw fit to criticise, more than once, his opponents’ style of play.

Walter Mazzarri smiled when he heard that the Dutchman had described his team as “direct and aggressive”. Yes, his side had scored twice from set pieces, and yes the move that led to their opening goal had begun with a long ball from the back. But Mazzarri knew what had happened on the pitch, and Watford had been better in every department.

i saw a link on here to it...he looks beaten...head down and twitching and spouting nonsense about our inability to pass the ball and play negatively...

after the clown went with 3 dms and dropped holgate...
 
Deja vu for me....


Valencia have sacked coach Ronald Koeman just five months after he signed a new two-and-a-half year contract.

The former Holland international agreed the deal in November when his side were fourth in the table, four points behind leaders Real Madrid.

But the team then went into freefall, winning four and drawing six of 22 games, and are currently two points above the drop zone. At the weekend they were beaten 5-1 by Athletic Bilbao, and have lost nine games at their former home fortress of La Mestalla.

After declaring that he was losing control of the team, Koeman went to extreme measures to stamp his authority.

Three key players—Santiago Canizares, David Albelda, and Miguel Angel Angulo—were all told to look for different clubs, as they would no longer be featured in Koeman's plans. Claiming that the trio had become detrimental to the club, the Dutch manager has been looking for ways to off-load them as early as the January transfer window.

Santiago Canizares has publicly stated that he would consider retiring if Koeman stands by his decision to leave the talented veteran goalkeeper out for the rest of his campaign. Spanish giants Barcelona are rumored to be interested in the world-class player.

On the other hand, David Albelda has taken legal action against the club in order to terminate his contract at Valencia. Albelda announced his frustration with the current management at a recent press conference, stating that he deserved better than humiliation.

Having trouble reaching an amicable separation with the club, Albelda and his lawyers will need to find a way to overcome his 60 million-euro release clause.


Doesnt know a good player when he sees one and destroys clubs and cameraderie.

Good point...Southampton were on a sound footing when he took charge. He did bring in some quality players though (think Mane was his signing?). He took on an ageing Everton team that were a shambles defensively...the contrast between Potchettino and Martinez couldn't be greater in that respect.

Gotta give him time though. Maybe I'm blinkered slightly by what an awesome player he was for the Dutch and the Barca dream team (arguably the best goalscoring defender ever, bar Roberto Carlos)...plus he did provide that "he's gonna flick one, he's gonna flick one" free kick goal against Graham Taylor's ("CARLTON, CARLTON") England...so he has brownie points going into the job for me.
