Ronald Koeman discussion

Against 10 man he leaves the two ch's with worst distribution in the league, and brings on Barry, an improvement in last year and since crimbo has got a song out of Ross and Rom, snieds is a quality signing, gueye is okay, the rest have been poor, we have improved but I'm still waiting to be impressed, he's earned more patience but that won't and shouldn't last forever if this regime is as ambitious as they claim
 
I expect full dummy out the pram in the summer from this foreheaded one when he doesn't get what he wants and we go into a mad scramble on the last day of the window with a 15 man squad.
 
Koeman has managed to get the best of an extremely average side who's players suffer from delusions of grandeur. Until most of them are moved on, no manager will be able to really take us forward. Its all about reinvestment now, Koeman has been given a pass this season but I'll be a lot less forgiving next year. Providing he's given proper cash to invest I'll have a lot more expectations this time.
 

I just hope he's allowed to get who he wants, and perhaps more importantly they want to come here.
That's the core obstacle we face at the moment.

It's not all doom and gloom on that front, though.

Some European football is better than no European football, and we've improved markedly on last season. So it's going to be less difficult than it was last summer to attract talent.

But I do think we're going to need to throw a ton of money at the right players to get things moving.
 
We haven't finished in the top 10 since 2014, so I really wasn't expecting us to qualify for Europe in Ron's first year in charge.

Our manager deserves a lot of credit, as do the players.
It's two years. You make "2014" seem like it was a decade ago. And we didn't really do anything to influence the "qualifying for Europe". It all depended on other clubs.


On a side note, one way or another, I don't think he'll be here by the end of next season
