Lots of great talent coming out of the Netherlands these days. Hopefully Koeman brings in some.

This guy is so doomed. Most of youngsters are not ready yet or good enough which will force him to play those amigos again. With no money we cant even replace them. So he we will end up like valverde and setien. There is zero class in this squad except messi who is mental weak and too old to fully rely on.

Not sure what this guy should do. The only option is a complete restart an overhaul but this would take time which he doesnt have.

Larsson should have big pull on Central European and British talent. He's not strictly a huge personality himself, more of a Raul type guy, but jump from Valverde, Setien and Sarabia to Koeman + Larsson is really substantial for the dressing room confidence.

As an RM fan I'm liking these appointments less and less given RM said there'll be zero changes this summer. Your coaches will be held back by finances and it's difficult to tell how you can gel this tactically (as long as Messi is there you'll be doing damage control) and depth will hurt you since you'll need to play the seniors you keep at least once a week (games every 3 days almost throughout the entire season), but there'll be less consequences to personal decisions during matches when they choose to field less senior players.

It might not be better, but it will be less predictable and more interesting to watch.

First thing he needs to do is remove as much of the older players as possible. If we continue with the same seniors in the squad, we can forget about trophies next season.

In a way, Bayern's victory would've made more Machiavellian had they won only by a small margin, as board could've possibly slip it under the rug again.

Not this whoopass stew they dished us though. Fans are furious and there's no hiding from that. Drastic changes needed all over the place or heads will roll.

Koeman: "We Dutchmen love to keep the ball and dominate, not run after it. I learned to play good football and same while managing as well. I feel ready for this job."

You're looking at this the wrong way.

He is just saying he wants to dominate and not be chasing shadows the whole game

Yh that was quite obvious , was just joking.

Koeman: "I don't want to take names of players. But we are working together and will take the right decisions."

Koeman: "There are players who have reached a certain age and can't compete at a certain level. But we respect everyone and we will do what's best for the team."

Koeman: "Messi is the best in the world. I would love for him to stay many years. I don't know if I have to convince him to stay."




Koeman: "It's not necessary that a player is finished at 32 or 33. The important thing is the desire to win. I want to work with players who want to play for this great club."



Im not sure about that last quote chief.
