Ronald Koeman discussion

How many 10's does it take to change a light bulb?

Let's get some perspective. We've had difficult fixtures to start the campaign off with and we've brought in a lot of players who need time to gel. Performances have been poor but it will get better over the coming months.

What I will say though, is that our team and the players we've brought cannot realistically compete with the top 6. So far away from the required standard.

Players need time to bed in, true, but I can't for the life of me see what our style of play is supposed to be. It's all square pegs in round holes because they've bought too many of the same player. Inept management from what I can see.

We're going nowhere. Still can't beat a team from top 6 and football we play is absolutely woeful.

No balance, no width and players doubling their positions. Looks very worrying.

He needs to change his tactics or get out.

Average Southampton manager not impressing at Everton shocker.

Want to behave like the big boys? Appoint a big name manager not this fraud.

 

[Deckard2049]

Have been one of his biggest supporters but the tide is turning.

Has to be given time with his new team of course, but I don't see how it gets better with the clear lack of pace and strikers.

The new team he assembled without pace, width and a proper replacement for lukaku. Signings taking time to bed in is one thing. Seemingly having no clue about your ideal formation/style of play is unacceptable.

10's and 6's all over the field

As an American this is the Jurgen Klinsmann experience all over again

Its seems the former star player managers prefer individual quality over proper tactics

 

[sageyefc]

He's signed playmakers that don't actually playmake

 

[Axlswhk]

I bet there won't be any shot on target for 90mins

 

[Osamabindiesel]

It's perfectly fine to question Koeman after his poopshow today. What the hell are we even watching

 

[efcjames]

Midtable manager. Simple as.

 

[d4kyxx]

What happens when you don't replace rom and you sign players such as martina

Look at the spurs model. Follow it. We don't hense why we will always be in the top six shadow until we change

 

[ToffeeTim]

This will be a long season.

Yeah, it looks crap but I guess in time we have to hope these players do fit in somehow. We'll probably end up stumbling upon something that works. Occurred to me that quite a few of the players we've brought in came from clubs who frankly aren't great. Will probably take them a while to get accustomed to the mentality of a bigger team.

It does depress me looking at the team right now, I just hope it improves over the coming months. It's got to...
