Ronald Koeman discussion

[MikeH72]

Jags always looks like he is going to wet his pants when he plays against Costa Mori keeps his place for me

Costa will absolutely have Jagielka off

Have faith in young Davies mate

I know he's not 30, an attacking midfielder and Portuguese, but that doesn't mean he isn't up to taking on The Chelsea

Believe in our kids

You know I won't happen mate.

Martinez side played totally differently to Moyes side...

That doesn't change the fact that - as much as I defended RM - it's clear that a major reason for the success in his first season was that he had a solid base to work from.

If a team doesn't concede lots of goals, it's much easier to come in and implement a philosophy of 'total football' upon that.

I'm not taking that away from RM, but it's clear given his second and third year that that was the case.

Sweet Lord,does anyone else not care the slightest about Martinez or Moyes?
Every thread. It's endless.

This is a thread about Koeman, not Martinez.

If people persist in talking about previous managers I will be forced to report you.

Probably not, but I still think it should

Goat is against it full stop

Nope not me. I want every thread to be @davek saying 'what people need to acknowledge is that we played sublime football under Martinez, undoing all the horror of Moyes and won the 72 point trophy despite a team full of snides. Koeman must not undo that!' then 6 pages of everyone else saying ' you what?? Stop talking rubbish' then Dave saying 'can we stop taking about Martinez please he's in the past'.

Koeman though...decent start. Defence looks better, attack could be more adventurous but hopefully it'll come. Needs a replacement for Barry in the next two windows.

Just can't see Davies being thrown in. He's looked a bit out of place when on as a substitute in games. He needs 70 minutes but maybe not against Chelsea. I get the 'sink or swim' argument but he'll become the story in that game and if he makes a mistake or has a horror show it may curtail his development. I'd prefer to see him eased in.

 

[Bally8]

He will take one look at Luiz and know we can get something on Sat.

About time he's shown up for the clown he is

 

[madden95]

Costa will absolutely have Jagielka off

and mori, has most defenders of tbh!

 

[chippy1722]

This should be where Williams uses his experience, Costa would target Mori and he will get himself off, which means 9 men cos Barry will already be off by then.

Never would have happened in Joe Royles tenure.
