Dan Johnson Posted 12 April, 2015 Share Posted 12 April, 2015 Just wow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiCJfeO-JHw "He played out of a good organisation" He was quailty, one of my favourites! why I was so thrilled to have him here. He is a Barcelona legend, it's kind of like having Xavi or Iniesta manage us in 20 years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a Barcelona legend, it's kind of like having Xavi or Iniesta manage us in 20 years... One of my concerns was that he'd be living off his name and people were judging him on playing ability not managing. After 9 months I'm more than happy to accept that he's bloody great at both.

bpsaint Posted 12 April, 2015 Share Posted 12 April, 2015 That is the first footage I've ever watched of him as a player and all I can say is wow. Easy to see why he is a Barca legend, some of those goals are pure class and so important especially the Champions League winning free kick. Incredible goal scoring record for a player that was predominantly played at Centre Back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miltonaggro Posted 12 April, 2015 Share Posted 12 April, 2015 From the mid eighties until the mid nineties Koeman was world class, and a real problem to overcome for any opposition manager. My favourite player of that era. Also, a fierce competitor and a real hard case, and it's amazing how laid back he seems in management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint si Posted 12 April, 2015 Share Posted 12 April, 2015 Before the summer was probably best known in England for this match... In fact, both Koemans were playing. And also until today I had no idea that Van Gobbel also played in that match (last minute sub): http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football-koeman-leaves-england-in-tatters-referee-condemned-as-ronald-koeman-escapes-red-card-to-break-brave-resistance-with-deft-freekick-1510736.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 13 April, 2015 Share Posted 13 April, 2015 Remembe watching the 1992 European cup final (todays champions league) on telly. It was Barcelona v Sampdoria at Wembley. Koeman scored the winning goal I watched it in Wessex Lane as a freshly-recruited-to-Saints' cause student, we ran a telly out of someone's window and put it on a chair on the grass outside, and had a 20-a-side kickabout on the not-very flat piece of grass next to the railway line at half-time (with the owner of the tv particularly concerned as one of the many slopes ran towards it and a lot of the people watching were drunk and not footballers to begin with). Back when the European Cup was still a proper cup, and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pass the Dutchie Posted 26 March, 2016 Share Posted 26 March, 2016 I don't speak a word of Spanish, but I ended up watching large parts of this match anyway, fascinated.

Badger Posted 26 March, 2016 Share Posted 26 March, 2016 Did we ever find out the story behind the choice of Mané? Neither JWP or Tadic on the pitch at the time, he was next in the pecking order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuncanRG Posted 27 March, 2016 Share Posted 27 March, 2016 Did we ever find out the story behind the choice of Mané? Think the above post is right, but he went straight for the ball when it was given. I remember he did the same once before but Fonte ran up and overruled him because JWP was the pen taker.

Lawrie McMenemy (then Eng. asst.manager) restraining an angry Graham Taylor when early penalty claim was refused. Also..... Erwin Koeman was a pretty tough CB in his day, too.

I was at Wembley for that match and if you'd told me then that Koeman would be managing us 20+ years later I wouldn't have believed you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
