No Plan B -- he hasn't even got a Plan A.

There are grave worries within the Club that the dislike of the guy is now so deep amongst the playing staff, young and old, that a significant turn round in fortunes is a non-starter. The dislike is on account not only of his tactical ineptitude, his treatment of individual players and his reluctance to mine the gold nuggets currently in the U23s, but also of his deep-rooted arrogance. Not a great mix to have in your manager is it?

2011/12 season we were actually only in winning positions 2 times out of the 7 draws ( though I can't find info on the 2-2 draw away against Norwich )

2012/13 I can see 2 matches we were in winning positions out of the 8 draws but there's 3 games I can't find out if we were leading so a possible 5 games

2013/14 - 2 away games drawn from winning positions
2014/15 - 2 away games drawn from winning positions plus we lost 3 games after being in front
2015/16 - 4 away games drawn from winning positions
2016/17 - 3 away games drawn from winning positions

2017/18 currently 1 away game drawn from winning position

What a guy

And yes, we led at Norwich......we led 2-1 after conceding the first goal.

Irrespective of how many players are not away on international duty, one would think the manager of a major football club would have lots of other things to be getting on with

Someone said he was at his daughters wedding. But that might be wrong.

Its all a bit crap though.

People within. Anyone with relations with those on the inside will tell you the same.

So why keep him around if that's the case? Does more damage than good and won't be turned around if what you're saying is true.

Do they still make handherciefs? I even had to google the spelling..

Maybe we should all get them for the next game. Give the board the message Barcelona style.

I'm normally really patient with managers compared to most but I'm not sure I'd keep Koeman in his position.

Everyone seems to see the main issues with the team, including the media and other teams fans yet Koeman doesn't.

We have no width or pace yet he refuses to play wingers. He plays a player who can't defend at right back, despite having Kenny available.

Sandro keeps on avoiding getting in the box yet Koeman does nothing about it. Rooney plays too deep, etc.

He uses formations that use wingbacks despite Baines not having the engine he used to and Martina being useless at defending.

Carries on playing 2 DM's, even at home, when we need more drive in midfield and through playing both holding players we're inviting other teams on to us.

I know it can take a while for new players to gel but they're not playing with passion or fight and even if they were our tactics and lineups have been so bad I don't think it'd make much difference.

There's something seriously wrong with the way the team are playing. It reminds me of the month or so before RM left. Some of the players don't seem like they're trying.
