Moyes Potential Replacement

[Wat Tyler]

Supposed to have been today

Thought so... Hmm, we should know more soon then.

I can't imagine when Martinez wastes £15m plus on one or two Wigan sh1te. God please, no to Martinez.

I'd like a Wigan fan to come on here and lay out Martinez's strengths and weaknesses.

Strengths - Won FA Cup.. Battered Everton at Goodison.
Weaknesses - Got relegated.

Sound about right ?

http://espnfc.com/manager/_/id/105/roberto-martinez?cc=5739 something to get started with

It seems VP is popular on here and moving on the poll but is this site typical of all other polls and opinions?

I saw Martinez on a Goodison-bound 19 Bus today lads....

But Stubb's-Dad's-Mate's-Cousin's-Postman told me that Stubbsy's got the job so I'm conflicted.

Zzzzzzzz

Weaknesses - Got relegated.

Sound about right ?

Addition:

Strengths - A nice person; supposed to play "attacking football".
Weakness - Awful defensive record; winning rate of 29%.

Would our team be able to play this formation Martinez off http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1322451-talking-tactics-strengths-and-weaknesses-of-3-5-2s fond off.

Who will Bill go for? The fella who's just won back to back leagues or the one who's just relegated his club...You already know the answer deep down inside.

 

[just_COYB]

Yeah, but he's going to a big club.... stoke.....

Real hard to improve on this:
Tony Pulis' #BPL record with Stoke City:
Played 190, Won 56, Drew 57, Lost 77. Win percentage: 29%

Then again:
Martinez has a win percentage of just 25% as Wigan manager.

Both info from Twitter.

I know its true of all the names mentioned but nobody has come out and said "Its not me" or "I'm happy where I am", or in RM & VP " I have not been approaced"

Wikipedia states Vitor has signed a pre contract agreement with many clauses. We all know how crap info is on Wiki sometimes though

Wikipedia can be edited by anyone.

"Weaknesses: A bit naive tactically as he always looks to attack, he lacks the experience needed at the top level."

So that's Martinez' one weakness according to ESPN. Well I'd rather we actually try to WIN every game than play for the draw and then inevitably lose, and after all I like to be entertained watching footy, and our players are better than Wigan's by roughly 3000% defensively so I view it as a very positive thing.

It does not mean we will get points.

*INEVITABLY LOSE?*

**** me, how did we manage to finish top 6/7 all these times after inevitably losing every match?!
