Hull Tigers v Everton. New Year's Day at 15.00.

[potato]

we are disgustingly awful, i just can't see martinez sitting the players and yelling at them, he's prob sat down with a cup of tea in one hand saying they all put in a great effort and were very unlucky, probably tucks em all in bed and gives em a kiss on the forehead as well

Good to read that Martinez is still targeting a top 4 finish this season ............... according to today's Times.

Couldn't really make it up

Baines isnt a centre mid, barry not a centre back, naismith not a holding midfielder. Martinez has lost the plot

 

[KUEFC09U2]

So everyone blaming Martinez again but Barkley, Mirrllas etc getting off again? they where hopeless today

 

[orly]

Imagine this bell being in charge at Chelsea away

we are going to get [Poor language removed] murdered

Actually thought Baines did pretty well in the middle.

You angry lot broke GOT

What a disgusting show from Barry. The bloke gets a three year contract and completely down tools, strolls around the pitch as if it's a practice match at Finch Farm, I've rarely seen a performance like that from a professional football on a weekly salary that most blokes could only dream about earning in a year. If I was his manager I'd but him on the transfer list for a free and hope some mug would take him off our pay-roll.
We don't need him for a relegation fight we need some hard arse centre back to stiffen up the defence.

.....just want him to not be a fancy dan coach, floating wing backs, players in the hole, back three etc. Two CBs, two FBs and 2 blokes in front of them who get chalk on their boots.

Richard Gough was tweeting that the players need to have a clear the air meeting themselves but perhaps they're confused by the team shape. I know I am.

Naismith is not anything. He is absolute crap, and I'm sick of people on here fawning over him. He's our "playmaker" and he couldn't complete a 5 yard pass if his life depended on it

 

[Blue 1]

This is a crisis. We're in big trouble here.

 

[faddy the blue]

I honestly feel there has been nothing done in training to avoid conceding goals. You can always nick a goal late on in the second half even if things don't go for you. We have the players to do that part but playing week in week out with 2 goals avg deficit is just shameful.

Wonder if he's ever said to them " right boys you lot are defending like sunday league players. Play with my amazing philosophy when you have the ball but when you don't, then get the [Poor language removed] in there, and make sure you're not complacent in defense."

 

[uknightbreed]

He couldnt motivate the players to stop the rot against 4 teams we should be beating who all eventually made us look a joke.
how the hell is he going to motivate them for a relegation fight ?

Despite his excuses ,the decisions injuries and europa are not to blame . This is a manager who has no ideas no clue and his squad are not playing for him. This group of players are one of the best in the prem and playing the worst. The football motivation desire and fight is all dire. I honestly cant see what will magically happen to turn this around.

Enough is enough.

So everyone blaming Martinez again but Barkley, Mirrllas etc getting off again? they where hopeless today

Barkley, Baines, Naismith and Coleman were the only one trying to make it work.

Everyone else needs to be sold or to take a holiday

He got the job by telling bill he would take us to the champions league hope the players can throw darts better than kick a ball
