Ronald Koeman discussion

[COYBL25]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's already been tapped up by Barcelona lol

Gucci ain't never lied.

I guess he likes the local courses, trying his best to keep his job.

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.

I doubt it, the press don't care either way. They ask set-piece questions to get set-piece answers. 95% of content is completely banal.

I could see RK becoming agitated easily though, but it wouldn't take much probing to achieve that. He gives the impression that he dislikes the pressers, but I wouldn't blame him there as they are largely pointless.

He's not allowed to play Birkdale but he's played everywhere else. Someone seen him playing Mossock the other week.

Just stringing us along until his memberships run out in December.

...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?

Unfortunately the press and especially the local rags wouldn't dare put a manager on the spot as much, as they tend to get bared from the press conferences if they ask difficult questions.

You get the impression if Koeman was sacked tomorrow he really wouldn't be arsed

 

[johnjoeefc]

the way I see it is that the players aren't playing for him. This is often a very bad sign and something very difficult to halt the trend. Remember when the signs from Martinez first struck, there was big concern and took us a year to finally get rid and a wasted season and FA cup semi final.

Now what i think it is the longer we hold onto him it is going to be the same thing. are we not better off employing unsworth. getting a feel good factor back and really going for something this season. we still are early on and could make a good go of all competitions

I think this would be the best option

I find it staggering how aloof he is

Perhaps the player meeting this afternoon will clear the air.

If things need to be said, then get them said and into the open.

A roomful of millionaires should be able to talk openly and air their grievances and then get on with what they are paid handsomely to do, starting by showing some bloody effort.

 

[Frang]

Amongst other things, half jokingly said that if the board wanted to change the manager, he'd want compo same as Martinez.

Christ alive. he shouldn't even care about stuff like this, yet its right on his mind.

lamentable

if the manager and squad need clear the air talks, the air never really clears 100%. just prolongs the inevitable.

 

[Schwalbtino]

One would argue that making sure players have the right attitude is pretty much vital to a managers job like.

That's pathetic honestly. You mean babying them? When you earn 100k a week your attitude should never be in question. Imagine blaming your boss for you nothing putting in the effort at work today... I know what mine would do.

What a time for Ronald Koeman to be alive

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.

..these blokes are all on an ego trip. If Koeman eventually gets the sack, there's no reason to give his brother a red card. Keep him as a coach and let him leave under his own steam.

Next manager that comes in will want him out, so it's pointless.

If Koeman wants to improve my mood Lookman should be on the team sheet each week. At the very least until Bolasie gets healthy.
