Ronald Koeman discussion

Status
Not open for further replies.
Key points from BBC 2:

Martinez left him with a load of rubbish - Needs 16 players
Expected the Chelsea 5-0 and he accepts it, because of the Martinez squad
He (Koeman) only works Monday, Thursday, Saturday
He believes Lukaku is the best STRIKER in the Premier League. Can be the best ever if he presses and defends.
Barkley is the Bees Knees, needs to defend. Type of player you have to criticise becuase he will improve from it. Works with him, a lot.
Wouldn't talk about any more than 3 years. Is finding it 'Very enjoyable' now.
Is yet to meet Moshiri.
Will compete for the European places. This is the minimum
 

"We want to be best of the rest this season"

"To be one of the big ones in the PL is not impossible, but is very difficult"

Inspiring.

And no poppy. Horrible lack of respect for the fallen.

I missed the start of the interview, but if he said the first bit he is spot on. The squad of 2016 is the weakest we've had for years, possibly since Smith's time. How anyone could think it was "the best since the 1980s" is beyond me.

No regular keeper; many of our best players nearing the end of their careers (Barry, Baines, Jagielka); injury prone players in midfield (Gibson, McCarthy, Besic); inconsistent wingers who are average at best (Deulofeu, Mirallas, Lennon); no cover for Lukaku; too many overpaid players who contribute absolutely nothing (Niasse, MCGeady).

I wish RK had got rid of more of our dead wood before the window closed.
