This weekend has shown that Koeman is not the messiah and can't work miracles with this squad. The warning signs were there against Norwich but I thought ok it's a league cup game and he might have said this is not our priority but this has wiped away any doubts, unfortunately we now we know we can get beat even by crap teams when we don't bring our A game for at least a half.
However this is not the time to panic and say Koeman is a rubbish, the players all need replacing and Moshiri is a fraud. All those statements are false. We have won games this season and will do again, what is left to see is if this defeat is going to be a regular occurrence or is it more of a once in a while result. We need to make sure that we are difficult to beat at Goodison (unlike last season) and the players put the energy in, if we start having lacklustre (league) performances at home then we can start worrying.
We lost one away game by one goal, this happens and we have to deal with it without throwing all the toys out of the pram. It's going to be a long season but this game coming up against palace will give a good indication where we are heading. Hopefully Koeman can earn his corn and give them a good kick up the backside and we can produce at least a performance after the last two let downs. COYB
