So Ronald Cooman was being asked about Everton Football Club. Dun an interview was asked about a lot of things, but Everton was one of the most time of Everton. Feels either shocked too early, feels as though the club acted too quickly. There's a number of things, I mean we can go on through them but they was shocked too quickly. Classing wasn't given enough time, Barclay had a good relationship with. And Everton tried to be a top champions league club. First of all, sat too early. It's very hard to agree with that in terms of what kind of state we were in and what kind of state we're still in with the signings that have been left over, the signings that didn't work. He's mentioned Davy Classon but when you put it in the whole picture, not only just what was happening on the pitch but what was happening off the pitch, he didn't really handle things very well at the beginning of that second season and obviously that led to him ultimately leaving the club. There was no plan, it didn't seem like there was a plan. It's easier to look back now because you're seeing a sharp contrast in what was going on then and what's going on now. Now there seems to be a way of playing a plan. Players were going for fit the way that we play and everything seems to be flowing on. With Ronald Cooman, his first season he said it was great. It was one of his things, we were great in the first season but we won one game in ten and went out at the cup in the first round. At the first Norwich your own, Beatles, we went out of Leicester your own in both the cup. The Europa League was the second season, it was a bit of a disaster wasn't it, that started. We got to the end of that first season and we don't know right, we'd had a good run but we were in the race for fourth at one stage in April when we played Liverpool. They beat that, we were pointing it and we didn't and we fell away. But second season, the planning for the whole thing, the pre-season was terrible. The buy-in of the players was mad. The Europa League performed even though we got through great. We got into the groups. We started the season, he's right we had a tough start. Stoke at home, we beat him, we had Man City where he played reason to be well. Then we lost to Chelsea and we lost to Tottenham and then we started it in a bit of a dip. We also had, we got battered at that land. We also had Man City on the Monday. Chelsea on the Monday. Split on the Thursday and then Chelsea on the Sunday then we had a break. We had a copy by Tottenham when we came back and yeah it was a mess of him but it was a mess of his doing. A lot of it as well because we got into the Europa League as we've mentioned loads of times the group, the pre-season was a disaster. But then it was a disaster of our own making. He tried to fit a load of new players into a team at once without spedding them in slowly. You know, or using the Europa League to bed them in. And he went sort of full on with everything and it was just a big mess and you mentioned there Davey Classen not giving him a chance. He's the only one who didn't give him a chance. He's the one in a league cup game who played him on the left side of midfield when he could have simply have just let him play in his own position. He shouldn't have started him, should he? He should have bedded them in better. He threw them in and dragged them off and threw them in and dragged them off. He's the one who played Sando first game of the season off-front. He's the one who played Dominic Harwell doing by Wingbach. The errors were his making and he got himself into a situation that he couldn't get himself out of. To the point where the team didn't have a clue about what he was playing. Wingroom knew he was playing off-front and then dropping into midfield. We were dead slow, we had no runners. We were a mess and it was off his making. Yeah, listen to me, they got a centre forward like he should have done. That should have been his priority. Ron went up the door. He knew in February Ron wasn't staying. He should have gone and got right. We need a centre forward and I want him in for pre-season training. Now we want a Giroo but he should have brought two then. Shouldn't he? We had Wing. Wing could have played midfield but he did. Or he could have played up but he should have gone for the tag like another centre forward who could have played up there. Then if Giroo would have come off as well then he would have had two. We had listened, we were throwing money around particularly and we ended up with a mess. So that was his own doing. We had poor results. We lost our homes at Burnley. You know, yma ni asiu wedi absolutly isolated and you know called them useless and everything came off the bench and tracked them up really against Bournemouth. You know, we were 1-0 down, 15 minutes left, he got two. We got a last minute penalty at Brighton from Rooney. Got a short draw there. We got battered 5-2 at home by Arsenal. There was no way at that time he could stay because there was no pattern. There was no sign it was getting any better. I mean, you know, the plumbers and the campers that make us and everyone at Goddison Park in the Europa League game and you know what, so Leon at home beat us. There was no way at that time. It was a mess, it was a mess of his creating and he didn't, you know, whether he wanted those players on or he should have... He should have known how to, how he was going to fit them in and gone. And my mum would all that experience should have known how to take a step back and would have gone, you know what, calm this down. We're going to play a team in the league games and we're going to play another team in the Europa League and it should have been enough. By the end, the very look like you need it. He looked like a mess. He looked a mess. I mean, what do you make about what he says about Ross Barkley? Cos obviously Ross Barkley was seen as his... from an everton points of view like almost like his biggest loss. He lost, you know, I remember early on he was like, well, Ross Barkley's got to aim the right for a new contract. And then, you know, we end up losing Ross and it's a case of, well, we lost Ross because of this manager who we lost as well. And now he's coming out saying that he had a good relationship with them. Yeah, he was guilty for the reason, for him and Barkley breaking down and for Barkley and Everton breaking down, really. Cwm am his instrumental. At the start, kicking his ass when he needed it was fine. But when it became his go-to, he'd always have a go at Ross and it was like, well, it's not always his fault. He said, you know, I think Ross has said Cwm had helped him cos I think he did. I think he's become a better player. He's become a better player but in doing that he's also the relations with the contract and Everton broke down because of him and he was saying I'll sell him and I don't care if he doesn't want to stay. So Ross, whatever, and he's gone. I mean, a couple of things Cwm had said about Barkley was absolutely right. He dribbles in the wrong areas. He dribbles backwards instead of going forwards and he's right about that. Ross's biggest asset was driving at defenders and running and then all of a sudden he was turning and running back the other way and going by players and he said that that stopped him developing but the manager should have been able to tell him that, shouldn't he, and he didn't. So, yeah, I mean, listen, he's got his own views on it and he's never going to come out and go if it's my fault, Ross. He's never going to take any blame for anything. So, but I do, you know, I do have that opinion that we lost Ross Barkley because of Ronald Cwm and everything Ross did afterwards was obviously not the right behavior and good luck to him wherever he is but it was because of that. That was the flack to your point. No, it's, listen, he is who he is and he's never going to take responsibility for it and that clearly there's no relationship with him and the football club and there never will be a relationship. I think it's just one of those things that he'll just go, well, it happened and it happened and he always, you know, he always seemed Everton as a stepping stone when he went right to Barcelona and his plan, didn't he? His plan was self-dancing Everton in Barcelona and because he didn't perform at Everton, he's not at Barcelona yet but he may well be with Hollywood. A couple of other things, I mean, he was the reason why classon didn't settle he'd be through a minute at the deep end and then, like you say, truck him out and he says he plays a different role for Bremen and he's good but he's not picked him in the Holland team so he can't, you know, and he said it takes a year to settle well then help him, so help him get him, put him in and out and then out and leave. Or you should have just said, right, you're going to play in my Europa League games because it's slower, you're used to European football and you'll come on at 20 minutes in the end of every Premier League game. Struggle, struggle, struggle, lose all your confidence and then look lost and then fans are like, who's this player and then that's it. Same with Sando. And he damaged Sondavis in the process. Sondavis finished that first season of his, brilliant. Dead strong we all want and then the next season he's out of the team for classon who look lost instead of playing some and then going right, you're swapping now. It was just a mess and Sando, like you said, was a mess and, you know, and I know Welsh is guilty, it's the pair that didn't work. Listen, there's hell of a lot wrong with the Cuminera. Everton wanted and didn't really want him but had to take him and then him and Walsh didn't get on and it's a mess. I mean, it is what it is, it's a period that is going to take us a few years to ultimately fully recover from because of the money that was spent. He spoke about us wanting to be a Champions League team. That's the ambition. And said, but it's difficult. But when he was in that phase yet, he was like this year, he was getting ready next year for the challenge. When we got B4 and he united five weeks into the next season, he went no chance. And you're like, you've just had £150 million which you told us were going to put us there. Now you're saying there's no chance. You know what? There isn't going to be a chance. But he said that as well because someone asked him. Someone said to him, I thought you were going to be challenging. And he said, no, we're not going to be challenging. But he was like, you said it. He didn't know where to go with it. So, you know, we want to be there. That's the aim of the owner. And so if you're not performing, you will get cut. And he got cut because we weren't performing. So there you go. Let us know your thoughts on his comments that you asked. Did anyone bother, did you bother by it? No, but the question is though, do you think he should have got more time? Ultimately, or do you think that it was the right time to sack him and although it took us a little bit of time to recover from that. Rather we are in the place we are now without him then I'm still with him. I'm really, you know, worrying about what colour his Christmas tree is going to be or anything like that. Let us know your thoughts in the comments. I mean, let's be honest, if you still have to come right now we'd all be like, oh, he's going to Barcelona. So, yes. So we'd all be, we were all waiting for him to leave some points anyway. As you know. The question is, do you think he got too soon? Do you think? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
