Ronald Koeman discussion

[Rudolf Hucker]

I accept that mate but was there reason enough to him to remonstrate with the ref like he did ? To me That’s a bloke who just struggling .

Do you think he said “do I not like that”?


Oh the irony.

I would imagine Martina can speak passable Spanish as it's quite widely spoken in Curacao. Even if he can't speak it himself he will be well used to playing with teammates who do so I don't think we can give them that excuse.

I think Sandro did some good things last night - a couple of the crosses were excellent - but that was mixed in with some really really awful things too, like heavy touches and poor lay offs.

You learn something every day mate!

And all in all yeah, I agree.

I think pictures can sometimes be taken out of context but at face value that one is fairly illuminating. Koeman complaining to a referee when he had no real complaints because he’s struggling badly trying to make sense or rationalise a terrible situation whilst holgate one of our worst performers on the pitch is laughing seeming not to care a bit.

Ok Mase

Before he made his third sub last night I said to my mate he needed to bring Baines on for Martina.

They were giving Martina loads of space on that side as they know he offered us nothing in behind on his left foot, which constricted the space for us across the pitch. Sandro, liking to pick the ball up from deep and also cut inside, ended up in the same spaces as Martina and they were just tripping over each other.

Baines and Mirallas would have given us natural balance. It was so blindingly obvious as well.

The world is over 4 billion years old and we're unlucky enough to live at the same time as the idiot that thinks it's ok to hound Barkley out and replace him with crap like Rooney and Klaasen.

What a time to be alive

That's just far too simplistic to be even close to the reality.

Dont understand that post mate. Are you saying it makes so much sense it can't be true? Or are you saying he is over simplifying things and is off the mark?. Or something else?

I've done a bit of reading on his previous tenures as a manager - specifically Valencia.

He nearly got an incredible team relegated.

Has previously treated players unfairly - with some even trying to take him to court.

Why was he rated as a good manager? He's not really won anything and inherited Pocetino's Southampton team.

But thats the problem with RonKo, it is so obvious to everyone but him......as is the fact that we dont need two DM, or half a dozen AM.

Lads in the last one clearly gutted when they realised they are wearing half and half scarfs.

Teams have known all season whoever plays FB leave huge gaps behind. They get zero help from whoever is wide nor any protection from the so called DMs.

Let them advance then play the ball into the massive space they've just vacated.

WTF was that at the end! They both just stood there neither taking control of the situation and conceded possession.

Think Martina crashed and rebooted.

lol

All I went on about when all the talk was him coming here.

Also, see Benfica.

Reminded me a lot of when michael laudrup was flavour of the month at Swansea.

We don't want Dyche.

We need a manager who's going to take this club somewhere completely different. Really push the name and towards where we want to be.

There's two options currently 'available' that while hard, are certainly attainable.

Ancelotti and Thomas Tuchel.

Tuchel would be a gamble to an extent, but it'd reinvigorate the entire club. Ancelotti is proven world class but I don't think he'd fancy it.

Tuchel would jump at the chance to work in the Prem, though.

To be honest, I don't know who the board want, and who I want should be disregarded anyway as the last one I thought would do a job was Bilic, and look at the shipwreck of a team he is overseeing at the Dildo Factory. Still dream of a Simeone though!

I don't think we are ready for the likes of Ancelotti or Tuchel, and I don't think they would want to come to a team that needs molding into such a team - a bit of a catch 22, but if we don't chance our arm, we'll never know.

"If not Koeman, who?

Ancelotti? Keep dreaming."

This kind of attitude is exactly why we've been such a laughing stock for years. If we haven't at least spoken to his advisors then we deserve precisely what we've been getting for the last number of decades.

Nothing.
