Ronald Koeman discussion

[Kenshin]

We're 5 games in and we've played Chelsea, City, United and Spurs. Bit of perspective wouldn't go a miss.

And we have played them games with no defence and no attack. That's your perspective

Burnley beat Chelsea
Swansea held spurs
Stoke held United

We conceded for fun. Everyone can beat anyone in this league now sure, don't want to take away from that. But we are lacking the pure basics of football now. Mass recruitment or not, we have no defence, nothing in attack if we do concede and 200 midfielders who just pass it to each other before Rooney gives it away.

Mate the perspective here is that we can't even stop conceding and if there are goals against us for teams then the lack of attack is even more worrying

Keep the faith bungz

Koeman's bonce is that big that it has magnetic poles, he's just undergoing the change in poles. Once it fully switches we'll be sound

I hope the magnetic pull rips his head off

He won't get further then October if things don't sort themselves out. He has got to give the likes of Lennon, lookman and Kenny a go at least there is pace in there.

 

[jceverton]

Koeman is a very average manager who has absolutely no chance of getting us into the top 4, never mind challenging for the league. Letting him pick who he wants to sign for the first team has been an unmitigated disaster. We can drag this out and go nowhere or we can make a change with the chance to move forward.

We're sell to buy in my opinion and the way forward to me is to blend our young players with value signings. Get Unsworth in and give more responsibility to Walsh for first team signings and see what we can build in the medium term.

How many points we picked up in the same fixtures last season. Out of curiosity?

3 v Stoke home
1 v City away
0 v Chelsea away
1 v Spurs home
1 v United away

Which make 6 points. Not a big difference, but the way we have played in those games this season is a lot worse than last.

Beat Stoke home, drew with Spurs at home, City and United away, so that's 6 points. This season we have 4.

 

[Efcjake]

He's happy. Ashley Williams mistake, then penalty and freekick. OK that's football.

 

[ToffeeTim]

To be honest I'm thoroughly fed up with him tonight. But the problem at Everton ain't managers. If it was just poor managers we'd have got the right one a long time ago.

The problem at Everton is an utterly incompetent, fraudulent board who have no serious ambitions other than to stay in the PL and keep on the gravy train. It's all about making themselves money. How anyone seriously supports our board after all these years baffles me. If we had Mourinho we still wouldn't have got it right cause they wouldn't have backed him and would have demanded miracles from him. That's the problem here. And it's not going to change any time soon until the cretins leave.

Let's see how we do with an easier run of fixtures and a more settled team.

To play that 4 in a row does not help. Koeman must get the wins starting from tomorrow.

 

[blue4eva77]

Totally agree we are so rush it's scary, I'm beginning to think he's the worst manager we have had, Mike walker was bad but the last 4 games are something else.

Love the sarcasm. Well done.

8 games in and not a single positive to mutter.

 

[roydo]

Lets face it, we are on a dreadful trot.

But today we played well. We carried a goal threat, and on another day, could have walked out with 1, maybe, at a stretch, 3 points. They scored a worldy on 3 minutes, and 3 in the last 5 minutes or so. One a mistake, one a pen, one dead scruffy. Not like we were carved open.

We were awful in Italy mind. IMO, Koeman will sort this. Signs were there today. Just had one of them days.

 

[Mozza1987]

Laughing and smiling here and happy about it! Whether it was harsh or not we just lost 4-0.
