Ronald Koeman discussion

[Donald Twain]

I'm not angry. Nor do I hate anything. You just bore me to tears.

No worries Tom just pop me on ignore please , no need for any kind of negitive vibes then at all . Cheers mate.

Look, the problem isn't confronting the board, it's what resukts you're likely to get and what message it sends out.

That, if it's true, makes us look like a rabble. Koeman has led us into the season ending abyss and then lashed out at his employers and it makes us look like some Geordie nation mess.

He does not get Everton and he never will in a million years.

What is "getting Everton" these days? Chatting a load of bollocks about class and dignity whilst being patted on the head by everyone else. "Plucky little everton". I'm made up he's slated the board. He's obviously been promised investment, and at the moment we are dragging our heels over 2 or 3m for schneiderlin.

If you look at his record objectively he's struggled outside of Holland with the exception of Southampton.

He struggled in Holland too I thought takes over very good teams then ruins them!

8 players Browns?

We need 3, MAX.

We absolutely must sign eight players.

Stoke have spent quite a bit. Southampton have been impressive with their spending. Koeman will take over from Wenger...no shadow of a doubt in my mind.

@davek

You said that about Koeman on 30th March 2016.
How can , in your mind, Ronald be good enough to take over from Wenger but not good enough for us?

Lovely work

You are mine though lol

Fo shizzle bizzle

Still on the fence with him. Doesn't seem to be able to organise the team into a team. We still look like one set of defenders and a separate set of attackers.

His comments were quite refreshing, good to see him putting pressure on the board but again he's heaping more pressure on the players. Yeah they do need to take responsibility for the diabolical collapse at 1-0 up but slating them again in the media isn't going to do anything. He needs to do that bit behind closed doors for me.

At the end of the day he's on a bumper contract, he's supposedly been given a large transfer budget so he's going nowhere this season. Might as well just suck it up lads and get behind him and the team and see where we end up at the end of the season. 5 months in to koemans reign and it's not been anything to shout about, well it has, but for mostly the wrong reasons.

In order to make the thread run in a forwardly direction, lets not focus on what went before, yes im aware I mentioned the 21 years, but lets look at the here and now.

We have a squad full of some very talented players, but sadly, in key areas we have underperforming players that have needed replacing for a number of years. Our manager is trying to advance the playing side of the squad, but is being frustrated in his desire to increase the quality of the squad.

Thats currently were we stand, I assume you are backing the Board in all this? A stance I find doesnt fit the stance that you have taken for the last 7 or 8 years of your being on this forum. Which either means you are lying or you are simply being an utter wum that should be removed from this thread, what is it David, are you lying or wumming?

Hold on, 'Our manager is being frustrated by the board in his efforts to increase the quality of the squad'...is this the same board you were telling me and everyone else yesterday was a different proposition to what we've had before and that we're brewstered now and "the mosh will spend what it takes even for pony players".

Lol.

Physician heal thyself.

GODS SAKE BROWNS

Im out there looking, ive got us Morgs, that fella from Liege, Depay, what else do we need?

 

[ianefc]

Almost 60 pages since we lost.

Amazing.

Yet, it's been a really really reasonable night.

You don't have a clue.

Thinking sensibly about it I'm wondering if the Everton players haven't really bought into the way Koeman wants us to play, at Southampton he inherited a squad that didn't have the egos of alot of our players so they sort of bought into his way. Here a lot of players have been here a good while and play international football and he doesn't seem to be getting it though to them. But I have the feeling with Koeman it's his way or no way no compromising.

Well I hope it's koemans way. I and many other fans are fed up with the performances of the majority of the side. We need a clean sweep and get a new winning mentality in the side.

 

[Fansince1988]

He's a manager not a performing seal! Who cares if he's boring or not?! I really don't don't get this need people have to have a passionate and vibrant manager, how would it make any difference to us if he's full of life or a miserable arse? You don't want a manager, you want a politician.

I have faith that he'll do much better once he's got rid of this awful squad. He's clearly come to the club because he was sold on an ambitious project and now it's time for the club to put up and back him. The squad is bilge and everyone knows it, yet we currently sit 7th which most people would agree is the best we can achieve with this side. Yes it's disappointing to crash out of the cup early but its not like he's the first Everton manager to have that happen on his watch.

Good points but I'm not impressed,but I'll never be a big fan of him whatever he achieves here, but for as long as he is here I'll support him. I just don't think he was the type of manager we needed, but I hope he proves me wrong.

 

[tim cahill]

My interpretation of his comments today is Schneiderlein was supposed to be in for this game and the board let him down having to pick Barry against a fast team again

Just what I was thinking.

We must, but we won't. By the summer maybe..hope so anyway.
