Koeman’s future is in doubt after Everton lost to Arsenal on Sunday afternoon.
Ronald Koeman speaks to Leighton Baines and Wayne Rooney during the Premier League match between Everton and Arsenal at Goodison Park.
Everton icon Peter Reid believes Ronald Koeman has just two more matches to save his job after suffering a 5-2 home defeat to Arsenal on Sunday.
Koeman grimaced from the Goodison Park touchline as Wayne Rooney’s opener was cancelled out by Nacho Monreal, before a second-half onslaught from the Gunners saw the North Londoners earn all three points.
Mesut Ozil, Alexandre Lacazette, Aaron Ramsey and a superb solo goal from Alexis Sanchez saw Arsenal score five times, with Oumar Niasse grabbing an Everton consolation.
Alexandre Lacazette celebrates scoring his sides third goal.
Reid, who wore the blue of Everton for seven years between 1982 and 1989, claimed on Twitter when replying to a fan that Koeman has just two matches to determine his future on Merseyside.
Former Southampton boss Koeman, 54, gave fans reason to be optimistic this summer with big-money moves for the likes of Gylfi Sigurdsson, Davy Klaassen and Jordan Pickford.
Gylfi Sigurdsson warms up.
However, Everton now lie in the bottom three of the Premier League following the defeat to Arsenal and a decision on Koeman’s future could be made in the near future.
The Toffees boss will be hoping to ease the pressure on his shoulders with victory against Chelsea on Wednesday night in the Carabao Cup, before travelling to Leicester on Sunday.
