Ronald Koeman discussion

His line-up tomorrow will tell me all I need to know about him as a manager.

I kind of feel the same way TBH.

Of course not everybody is going to agree with his selection of personnel, it's how the team are set up for me and the intent.

 

[Khalekan]

But also being 100% obvious and thus another pointless article.

Well, if every journalist in every publication in every country in the world limited himself to writing articles which were not "pointless" there would be plenty of blank pages in the newspapers innit.

I will live with any selection so long as it does not contain both Gana AND Schneiderlin

Though I won't hold my breath

The problem I think he has is, the one that cost 8m is better than the one that cost 24m

Moreover, the thinking perhaps should be Davies and someone else rather than Gueye and/or Schneiderlin being shoe ins.

And right now, the cost free Davies looks the best of the three.

Excuses for failure. He got it in early.

The idea that other teams have spent more means it rules us out is daft imo.

Spurs have spent less than City, United, Arsenal, RS, Chelsea...but are now a top 4 side.

Maybe it's down to the manager...

In all fairness to spurs they did land on possibly England's only world class player in Kane too who has transformed them in the last 3 years..

And that's a bad thing?

 

[Goat]

Give him a 7 year contract I say.

They have to make a living unfortunately. I can't blame them for that.

Pick a number between 1 and 1 million

I'll go easy - 3

If you haven't worked him out by now I don't see how one game is going to make a difference!

Number 3:
You never know how well a player's wife/partner will settle down after a move.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

He should probably continue this 433 until we gain some confidence and find an established goal scorer. We have plenty of talent that can take up those wing-forward positions (Sandro/Vlasic/Mirallas/Lookman). I just think he is asking too much of the striker when we don't even have an established team, so 433 would give him more support.

Love to see 1 & 2
