It’s perfectly understandable that you don’t like him mate, I get that. No problem.

My take on this is, we look much more defensively organised - even Martina had a good game FFS lol

But I’m inclined to ignore his previous form, and concentrate on what he’ll do for us, and a winning start was essential.

What's that to do with making him better? Don't go of point here

I don't mate ( right now ) but everyone is entitled to there own opinion. Obviously it will take more time for him to organize us better and what better way than a week tomorrow lol!

My point is that he has a bit of self pride about him and will want to earn a bit of the money we are paying him instead of the no marks that have gone before him...just a thought Matty

Thankfully my head has returned to my shoulders from the outer reaches of the solar system now. Maybe even quietly confident...still wish he wasn't a corrupt weapon like

 

[chrissyjack]

Why not just give the fella a chance

 

[dannyboy]

Wonder how he'll line up next weekend. Tbh, whatever side he puts out is going to terrify me but the thought of Martina against their forwards is chastening.

We're going to need a defensive masterclass to get a draw. Hopefully he's got a plan.

He’s taken one full training session. Don’t know exactly what else he could change in one session, it’s going to take time. Made a tactical switch with Lennon and Siguardsson at half time and immediately paid dividend. Going to be really tested next Sunday, he’s frustrated top teams in the past, but he’ll have to come up with something special to stop the free scoring kopites.

Jesus Christ, strange reading that back now he’s come out of retirement. The pull of Everton must have been huge for him.

After we first spoke to him mate, and it looked like we then went lukewarm on him, he began touting himself for the United States managers job.

 

[brieverton]

He has tried hard in 3 days to do and say the right things and looks well up for it. The difference with Koeman and his staff already seems stark just in terms of attitude and enthusiasm alone.

A good result always helps. Can’t get carried away at all of course but I think Sam is a lot more savvy than he is generally given credit for. We will have clear direction and I think he will put a lot of work in with the players individually.

A very decent week considering the awful way it began and a good few days for Sam.
