Ronald Koeman discussion

[Brendan Janus]

Mori transmits panic throughout the whole defence and as a result, the crowd.

He keeps me awake to be fair !!

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Oh Mikey, Mikey, Mikey. There is nothing sub-par about Jose.

He's Magic.

Oh FFS

I set you up perfectly for a line there Connor

*Stomps away sulking*

 

[MikeH72]

Aye, he's sound. Gets unnecessary amounts of stick because people made their bed with him after what Tim Vickery said about him so they're trying desperately not to be wrong.

It's not that at all mate. He just isn't very good.

Has his shaky moments I agree, but worth keeping hold of IMO.

And the player we could of signed instead is better

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

I like mori, think he is in the heitinga syndrome. 'he's crap him lad, not good enough, sell him' except he keeps getting taken out the team and can't build any sort of partnership up with anyone in the process.

I like him, think he is passionate, bought into the shirt and even if he would jump at a barca interest in him, least he works hard and plays for the badge on his shirt.

I would sell a lot of players before him, we need that bit of passion.

Yes he isn't a bad player.

He just has a habit of switching off or giving up on things he could have prevented. Case in point was the Ibrahimovic goal.
Had he chased back he could have cleared it before it spun over the line.
He has a habit of being on his heels and not anticipating how a situation might play out in his favour.

He is a useful player, but if we want to really challenge at the top, perhaps Koeman might be looking to replace him.

What on earth are you talking about?! What nonsense is this about women in soap operas and trying to change Koeman. Were have I said that it anything even close to it! What a load of crap!

Calm down mate. You sound like one of those women in soaps who's always trying to change Koeman and then gets furious when she's compared to a woman in a soap who's always trying to change Koeman, like that one in Emmerdale.

Without going too far off-topic, as we have already. Mori is sound and as it stands, our second best centre-half. My post was in regards to our 'fans' with 14k Twitter followers and a YouTube channel who moan at him any chance any chance they get because they try and be mates with Journos through Twitter.

We've looked far better with him in team and got important results in the process.

He has his problems, yes, but he's got something there that I wouldn't let go of just yet.

Mori wants to be a starter. If we sign a new CB, the new player will play along with Williams. If he wants to be 3rd/4th choice then it's fine.

I'm simply saying that if we expect your argument that he's a total mercenary strictly here only for the cash can you please tell me another club right now that would better his wages? Because the only way that will happen is if he goes to Arsenal or a European equivalent and makes the step up and why would they be interested in him right now? It's not that I'm saying he wouldn't drop us, I'm saying nobody would come in for him that he'd drop us for. Because they wouldn't pay him what we have and that's only if we expect your argument that he's a complete mercenary and not here for any other reasons.

I've never said he was a mercenary, I said he was ambitious and sees us as a stepping stone like he did Southampton.

Seriously, you are being very biased towards us and putting us on a very high pedestal. I get it, you are a fan but take a step back and think.

Let's see he finishes sixth this year, Spurs finish fifth. Poch takes a job in Spain, and Spurs come calling with a 8 million pound contract.

He will be gone, I accept that. That's what I'm saying.

Probably the only centre - half we have who is always looking to play the ball out of defence rather than just hoof it up, the problem is the movement from what he has in front of him is that piss poor he can linger too long on the ball and ends up making a mistake.

Lol, fair play. Guess I walked right into that one.lol

I actually reckon we won't sign a CB in this window.

lovely comments from Koeman, exactly what we need him to be saying.

the fact is players in that squad aren't good enough and do need to be sold. The fact that Koeman isn't a work with what he has type of manager and is genuinely pointing out he wants to get rid of players out of there tells me only one thing. That he deems them not good enough either, he can see what we see and he is rebuilding the squad which is fantastic to hear.

Koeman will strip the squad and bring in his players.

But, I'm amazed at you saying the squad is not good enough though. Back in May you said the following on the link

Aye, I say that every week at the match to the fella who sits next to me who hates him. He's like Barkley, he's always looking to move the ball forward but the movement isn't there so they can sit on the ball and lose it, which causes the angsts and moaning in the crowd.

Only have to look at the Leicester game on Boxing Day, the forward movement was fine and Funes' passing was sound - same too Barkley when he came off the bench.
