Never heard of it. None of the blueshite I associate with thought it was a pen(naturally), their assessments were along the lines of "it was a dive", " Stevie starfish strikes again", "he slipped", " the ref was a redshite" and a few others. But "slipped" was deffo in there.
And he delivered a result that was 2 places worse than Rodgers managed the previous year with it... Koeman lost Howard and Stones, he replaced them with the relatively average Steklenburg and Williams. The only 2 additions that he's brought in are Bolasie and Gueye. There's no way that outfit is how he wants it to be, hence the reason he's said he's hoping for 4 players in Jan. He won't get judged by all barring the knee jerkers until next season.
On loan....as a last minute desperation signing as we failed to land who he wanted to compete with Lukaku.
Seems most fans think everton are not great as a team at the moment then. Surely then nobody has an issue with their target for this season being a mid table finish and keeping lukaku?
You guys keep harping on at keeping Lukaku when reality is if he goes no one really gives a **** because it will be as he doesn't want to wear the shirt... Suarez's was so desperate not to wear the LFC shirt he ate a man at the world cup difference being that sparked an LFC meltdown there will be no meltdowns at EFC if some bloke leaves...
Koeman took Southampton to Europe with a small budget, wonder if he's going to take Everton to Europe with a big budget??
Can't remember a meltdown when he left tbh, I remember us being gutted he left but being happy we got the extra season out of him and the extra dosh his improved contract brought in when he joined Barca. The only problem was the money was given to Rodgers. Plus Lukaku ain't anywhere near Suarez's level and won't be as hard to replace as Suarez was/is for us.
TBF Koeman averaged £41.5m per season at Southampton, about the same as his £45.1m per season at Everton (unless Moshiri stops lying and invests in January)
OK fair enough so your target is just a mid table finish, that's fine by me. As for comparing Suarez to lukaku
Just is right though. Lucky doesnt want to be there and they all know it. air of inevitability about it and it depresses the whole place.
