Ronald Koeman discussion

[Cork Evertonian]

What were you expecting points wise? Maybe a win against Spurs at home if we caught them on a bad day?

I know the performances haven't been what any of us wanted but there were signs of improvement today. In hindsight it's probably better to have played the top sides early on and dropped points we were likely to drop anyway.

If a month passes and we're still getting results like today then I'll be on here saying it might be best for a change but I can't see that happening.

It's the performances that have me concerned.At the end of the day i think conceding 10 goals in the space of a week is serious reason for concern.

Ok mate.

Come on lad. Stand up for him a bit more than that.

 

[PhilEFC]

Thanx mate and I'm sorry to hear that. If you need to talk mate I'm here. I vented on here after I lost him last year and I found it helped me with the support of others.

Cheers mate, appreciate that.

He hadn't been well for a few years to be fair, he was never out of the vets, and although we knew he wouldn't be around forever, it's cut us up, especially the kids and missus.

It's not great and I'm not happy with the defence either, but I still think we'll get better with the games coming up. Purely because the opposition won't be good enough to exploit the weaknesses.

 

[dannyboy]

At the moment we look like outsiders for the top 14.

We do, but since when did the season get decided after 5 games? At this stage last year things weren't looking great for Chelsea and it worked out okay for them.

My cousin's lad is a blue but he works at Old Trafford as a steward and he said that he spoke to Koeman briefly after the match.

He said that Koeman was literally in tears, to the point where he was sobbing hysterically and uncontrollably. Koeman hugged him and said something along the lines of: "Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place."

If anyone thinks that Koeman doesn't feel our pain, you're mistaken.

I thought Koeman was decent today.

Said and did all the right things in the main.

Christ

Hearing a few rumours tonight from fellow blues about Ronny been a naughty boy? Anyone else heard anything?

What's he done lad?

The difference is that Chelsea had a good manager and a skilful, well-balanced squad. We don't have either.
Also, we have played ten competitive games so far and still haven't shown any signs of improvement.

Not much, as was shown today

Maybe there'll be signs of improvement when we start playing crap teams. Usually helps when things aren't going well.

Contract extension offers can do that to a man.

I didn't think he was too bad today mate.

 

[leslad]

Got it right to target their left hand side today, and the players looked more motivated, in that respect he did well.

Got a lot on his hands though

Apparently went through the post match buffet on his own and was found surrounded by half eaten cakes and sandwiches crying his eyes out about how his mother loved Erwin more.

Not sure if true.
