So.. do you frequent RAWK a bit? No one's effusive with praise for the Big K.O.E!? Certainly not like he's a messiah. His positives & negatives are discussed with reason within this thread. Ron may not be an elite Manager- let him build the squad he wants & let's see how he does. Now is not the time for the gnashing & wailing. Come xmas & we're absolute bonk- then fair game.It's getting like RAWK in here. If we're not praising Ronk or gushing about our new signings, we aren't a real fan or something.
Some of us are realistic and have seen it all many times before.
A side that finished 7th you mean? And even then, only Lukaku and Ross managed to score more than 4 goals each. Both of those won't be here in the new season so who replaces their goals?That was just a bit of bait which you gobbled up nicely.
If by "seen it all many times before" you mean building a very good squad that's capable of finishing in Europe then no, I'd argue anyone under the age of 30 hasn't seen it many times before.
Why ?My confidence in moonhead and the PE teacher is slowly ebbing away

Some serious straw clutching going on. If we had bought a proven goal scorer and a midfielder that will light up Goodison then I'd be excited. But we haven't.
Prove me wrong, Ronk.
Some of the tactical decisions, some of the transfer dealings, some of their decisions keeping around certain playersWhy ?

How is that constructive debate? "Oh you know better than the manager do you?"Interesting

It's a debate forum. Not everyone is convinced by Ronk.

It was a little tease and taken as so by the original poster @sageyefcHow is that constructive debate? "Oh you know better than the manager do you?"

Mine was when we were humiliated in Europe, getting taught lessons by a Ukrainian team..Mine was the West Ham game, that was my tipping point.
Pace doesn't make much difference against a team sitting deep and defending. Need wing play plus craft and guile through the middle.This squad is dying for pace,it will all be evident again on Thursday how lacking we are of it.
