Ronald Koeman discussion

[granter79]

Love it when we win. The whoppers get bent all out of shape n sound even more pathetic.

Progress been made on and off the pitch with RK and Moshiri in charge. Something wrong with u if u can't take even a little enjoyment from it.

COYB onwards n upwards at a steady realistic approach.

If it's not for you don't watch or don't comment then. Come back in August

Would seem a reasonable suggestion.

8 points off 4th, bang in form, season over MY ARSE.

Only 9 off the RS as well.

Who says it's a must (apart from you, of course), is this the performance target the board have set him for next year?

I want to see Everton improve. if we finish 7th or 8th this year, that's improvement on last year. If we then went on to finish 6th next year - that's improvement again. I'd like us to get as high as possible, as quickly as possible, of course, but as long as we're improving, and not going backwards, I'm on board.

If we get about what we have now next season that's treading water. We didn't accept it from Moyes when he was nailing that average for a few years on a lot less cash than this feller is spending, so why should he get a free pass?

I agree David, we should improve every season, so if we get 7th this season, 6th must be the min next season and so on.

 

[davek]

Shock horror. Dave changes his tune when hes proven wrong.

You dont know what his best shot is. Can you predict the future?

His best shot is low 60 points. That's not enough.

 

[Tony Hibbert's 3rd leg]

Supposedly Arsenal, Spurs and Liverpool are still in with a shot of winning the league.

4th is absolutely still a possibility. A run of 6 or 7 games can change your season, even at this stage. Believe until it's impossible.

 

[blue to the bone]

Would seem a reasonable suggestion.

I know if I wasn't enjoying some thing or had no great interest in it I wouldn't spend hours and hours a week posting about it
I'd find something I did like doing

 

[MACCA75]

Fair play to Koeman, have been critical of him, but the one thing he has done all season, is change things. Changes of formation, changes of personnel. Not just blind optimism that doing the exact same thing that had been a fiasco the week before would eventually come good.

Seems to have found a formation and an energy to the team that works.

Earned a round of golf.

But Moyes got 12 years didn't he mate? He got a free pass for 6/7 years. It was only towards the end people got frustrated with him and a lot of this was down to his attitude.

Koeman has had more money, so expecting him to get 6 years is unrealistic as well. But he deserves an opportunity to acquire his team before he's judged doesn't he?

 

[davek]

It's because you made a fool of yourself with him and you're doing it again with Koeman. You haven't even got the bottle to say where Koeman should have us after 7 months in the job.

You're not paying attention. He should have us here, minimum. He has us here. NEXT SEASON that will not be the minimum. Can't say it any plainer than that, tbh.

 

[jinkyali]

His best shot is low 60 points. That's not enough.

You dont know that though.
You cant predict the future.

 

[ianefc]

Why? From 43 to 'low 60's' is a dramatic improvement.

 

[jinkyali]

You're Minot paying attention. He should have us here, minimum. He has us here. NEXT SEASON that will not the minimum. Can't say it any plainer than that, tbh.

I thought winning the league was the minimum?

Above which of the current top 6 is most attainable in your opinion.
