Ronald Koeman discussion

...the questions at those press conferences frustrate me. Why not ask;

You seem to change formations on a regular basis, when you were purchasing players in the summer what team model was it based on?

Teams who play with a back 3 usually employ offensive wing backs who attack the opposition back four and create. Do you use Holgate and Baines to protect CBs you feel need defensive support?

Your team is dreadful for supporters to watch. Why is there no width to get around the back of opposition defences and create, and also no width in defensive areas leaving so much space for teams to exploit?

You say you missed out on your prime striker targets, in hindsight did you wait too long to acquire the likes of Giroud; and was there a dependency to bring monies during the final days of the window?
 
And the only reason you gave Martinez "until October in his 3rd season" was because of the splendid first season.

If Bobby's first season had been as dismal as his second one, or even on a par with Koeman last season, you would have been urinating in your pit with the rest of them right about now on foot of the utterly clueless, gutless shambles unfurling before our very eyes, Tom.


You surely would ;)

Mate, he took us from 11th to 7th in his first season, got us back into europe and made us pretty formidable at home again after the worst season at home in a very long time.

If last season filled you with dread and despair or anybody else for that matter, then I am afraid I cannot understand that one bit.
 

What a time for Ronald Koeman to be alive :dance:

He does give the impression that failure at EFC would not be a major setback in his life. He has set his brother up on a nice-earner
and 6 million for a manager who has achieved nothing managerially is a nice piece of work. He would be sure to get a job in Holland and could start the managerial round-about off again.

Lets imagine that we have a dud season and RK loses support, the club will have little option other than coughing up millions to the Koeman Clan.

Being crap and getting the sack is a nice little earner.
Moyes has perfected it.

This is the first time the press have had to question him on the overall crappness of the team, so they seemed to go quite easy on him.

I'm sure the questions will get harder if things don't improve very quickly.
