Ronald Koeman discussion

[davek]

Aye, but City and the lovables are in a bit of spin it seems.

Nice that we seem to have some real momentum, where it will end up, who knows?

7th.

Not consistent enough to knock off United, too consistent to be caught by the West Broms and Stokes of this league.

We're 7th mate. I've been here before...what are we celebrating precisely?

Silly me, im old school, Everton wins make me happy.

A bit of traction in my house. Two tricky games, with different problems to address, and 6 points.

Ha ha ha. We win and you think of me.

Where am I? Still here mate, still looking at a manager who has us in 7th place.

The recent run is encouraging, but my point about Koeman has always been that he's a streaky manager. Good first 5 games this season followed by 3 wins in 17 games. Now we have an upturn, but there will be another downturn.

It's the nature of the beast.

We won and I thought of you. Mainly the point about how we'd find it hard to break down teams that weren't coming at us and how we'd find it hard against Palace. Absolutely right on that score. Still need a playmaker (although I don't think that needs to be instead of Schneiderlin but as well as).

Stoke have a better squad???

Is this some sort of sick joke? They are utter TOSH.

They are playing Crouch upfront to be fair....

 

[davek]

To be fair he would be a miracle worker to get us top 4 unless the other clubs implode. We are where we should be, (possibly even one place higher as I still think Stoke have the better squad) so he is doing a good job.

I agree his career shows that he goes through patches of really good form mixed in between bad spells but we have just got to be thankful we are getting the points.

5 points off Man utd who have Mourinho, had a better squad to start with and spent more in the summer shows it isn't all bad.

Oh aye, at the moment it's nothing to complain about. Nothing to write home about either.

Like I said, "Who knows?"


Just feel we are moving the right direction atm, whilst a few others are not.

United are the low lying fruit. I can't see them collapsing, tbh. They fought well at a difficult away fixture today, for example.

Fair enough. I can't see the top 6 all getting 70+ points as they will take points off each other. One maybe 2 teams will drop off and I think we could be ready to pounce.

I thought Barkley suited that role particularly well today. He impressed me again. I think Koeman will stick with him.

At HOME mate. At HOME. Even pony teams like Palace aren't allowed to park the bus against a team like Everton

It is his first season mate.

We've been absolutely terrible for two seasons previously, let's give him a chance.

I wasn't a huge fan of Koeman a couple of months ago, but he has shown he can adapt and we're seeing results from this.

We're celebrating winning another game mate, we're Evertonians and we've won 2 tricky games in a week, and kept another 2 clean sheets.

 

[Seanjd]

I would say on the whole, it's probably an encouraging improvement from last year and will set the tempo for next season.

Ok mate
