Ronald Koeman discussion

At Southampton he had Mane and Long. Both with pace to burn which makes it even more puzzleing as to why we havent got anyone similar. He knows that pace is crucial in this league

I've said this myself- if you look at the Southampton team that was assembled whilst he was manager then our current squad becomes even more baffling. Southampton have been notoriously efficient recruiters over the last few years in conjunction with developing some very good academy players so perhaps
Koeman didn't have a lot to do with it. Even so, he knows what it takes to get 6th in the premier league. He literally did it. A lot of those players possessed great quality as well- Mane, van Dijk, Wanyama, Romeu and even the likes of Pelle, Bertrand and Soares. Scheinderlin was of course there at one point as well, so he should know what types of players function well in this league.

As you say yourself, that Mane like figure is the one we're seriously lacking. Don't forget we don't have the Pelle target man either. No goals/no pace, what a wonderful combination.
 


Home to that pathetic Arsenal side is a game we should be winning. So he has no excuse. There's no hiding place. He can't con the fans. It's a game we should win and need to win.

Unfortunately we are the ideal side for them to play at this moment in time looking for their first PL away win, as we'll sit in and let them have 75% possession and play triangles around our aging crippled team all day.

There isn't a single game we have a right to say we "should" be winning at the moment. Everyone in the division will be thinking that about us.
