Koeman spent too much time chasing Swansea for Sigurdsson. How many weeks did that go on for? I didn't want him, I had a bad feeling about it when I heard the rumoured fee. Energy should have been on a centre forward instead.
I know it sounds good now but I felt the same way in August

Some people seem to be underwhelmed. To be honest im excited. Excited at the prospect of a new beginning and as a personality as a player and manager this is a huge upgrade on journeyman player and championship play off defeat manger David Moyes and journeyman player and relegated FA Cup winning manager Roberto Phenomenal Martinez. I would consider Koemans time in charge of Ajax and PSV as a success. He did what was asked of him at those clubs. He won the Eredevise twice at Ajax. The league and cup double in 2002 and another league title in 2004. He won another league title as manager at PSV. Benfica did finish third behind their main rivals Sporting Lisbon and Porto when he was there but they did reach the champions league quarter finals. That Benfica team ended Liverpools reign as champions and Barcelona the eventual winners knocked them out. There's no disgrace in that.
His time at Valencia didn't work out but they did win their first Copa Del Rey since 1999 when he was there. There was that disastrous spell at AZ Alkemar but he put in a few decent seasons at Feyenoord after that before going to Southampton. People play down what he did at Southampton saying it was a Moyes like job. Getting Southampton to 7th and 6th place was a fine achievement. They were three points short of a champions league place this year as well. Koeman was also part of the dutch backroom team at the 1998 world cup when they lost to Brazil in the semi final on penalties. He was also an assistant manager at Barcelona. His footballing career unlike Moyes (apart from his time as a player at Celtic) and Martinez when they came to us has taken in some of Europes biggest clubs.
A manager that makes changes when things aren't working out imagine that.Makes a nice change from Martinez just standing there like a dunce in his brown clogs while the excrement was hitting the air conditioning.I said it when he was appointed and i firmly stand over the opinion that Koeman will get us into the champions league within 2 seasons.There will be bumps along the way but i firmly believe that this guy will be our best manager since the late great Howard Kendall.

I reckon even with Diego Costa up front we’d still be garbage right now.
Same here mate. What a disastrous fall in only his second season. He did a lot right last season and did a good job studying the ship but Christ we are terrible this season. Genuinely never seen us be this bad for such a long run. Very little in these matched either to suggest the performances are going to turn the corner. Confidence is down. He needs to go before the next match.This was my reaction on this thread to Koemans appointment.This post is from June 4th 2016.
And a post here from me on August 21 2016.
I had high hopes for Ronald Koeman but he failed me.
