Ronald Koeman discussion

[marsh]

This all started Vs Norwich, but people didn't mind as its only the league cup. 3 awful performances on the bounce! City up next after international break, which we could easily lose, which then puts more pressure to win the so called easy games

...but, but, but. Everything is different now...isn't it?

If you expected (well not you just people) things to change completely already then those people need serious help.

I didn't. Especially after that pathetic window. I do expect the much vaunted 'honesty upgrade' though.

Oh and thought we'd never see Cleverley or Kone on the wing now we have a proper manager and the so called "clown" has gone?

Didn't understand the substitutes tonight,i get mirallas coming on but should have took cleverley off and the mori one baffled me unless Oviedo was carrying a knock.

If we Evertonians had been as impatient and as petulant in the early 1980s as we are today, Howard Kendall would have been shown the door before he could win anything at all. We didn't once finish in the top 6 during Kendall's first three seasons as manager.

Rebuilding squads takes time. It took Martinez several years to turn us into a bottom half side; it could take Ronald even longer than that to make us great again. We will get there eventually, though. Our new manager is a proven winner.

Keep the faith.

In his defence, excuse the pun, only Spurs have conceded less goals (3) than Everton this season. They've also played a game less

I actually feel sorry for him that he has to try and make players like Cleverley, Oviedo and so on actually be good. It's basically impossible.

And they were 2 of our better players tonight.

Doing a fine job with the squad at his possession, after being let down in the transfer window.

Well we don't have the worst manager in Premier League history anymore, so that's different.

We didn't, we played a midfield diamond.

Oviedo is a good LB and Cleverley is more than a match talent wise for someone like Steven Davis who Koeman relied on at Southampton. These are players that anyone should be able to adapt into a new system.

He must find an attacking threat. We have a world class striker and no clue how to utilise him still after 3 seasons

I think Mori was put on to defend the crosses they were banging in ,right choice for me.

4 new players required. Nobody can turn what we have now into that threat. Patience required I am afraid.
