Moyes Potential Replacement

[Allezfan]

If Martinez came here he wouldn't make as many mistakes on players as he has done at Wigan, for a few reasons.

1) Bigger club which cant attract better players in the first place, less risks
2) Better scouting network
3) Able to pay much better wages

He might still buy the odd jarg player, but then so did Moyes. Everybody does.

Do you expect Moyes' record in the market to improve too, then?

 

[By god I'm blue]

I am partly afraid that quite a few of those players will leave

Felli and Baines are dead certs I think

Coleman, jags and Barkley aren't out of the question

I think Mirallas would likely want to stay but it's not guaranteed

Could even see Moyes poaching Kennedy on the way out to be fair

I think man u's scouting network and transfer targets might stretch a bit further than the other end of the East Lancs mate.

 

[By god I'm blue]

You can all [Poor language removed] of suggesting Martinez. I seriously mean it now.


Since when has a relegation battler been good enough for Everton? Moyes has gotten us battling for Europe, that was not good for most evertonians.

Pathetic.

That's a silly logic.

Since when was the manager of a team in the 2nd tier (Preston) ever good enough for Everton?

How do managers improve their performance unless they are given chances at better jobs?

When you're shopping at the very top end of the market then you're generally buying proven talent rather than 'potential', so the likelihood of buying a dud lessens. (The ****e beyond the obvious exception to the rule )

Joe Royle was a relgation battler at Oldham. Moyes and Kendall were even worse, only fighting for promotion into the top flight.

I want Laudrup but Vitor Pereira is going to cost us no compo while Laudrup would be 4-5 million from what ive seen being said.

the compo shouldnt be an issue. just get the best man for the job

They've generally lead their previous club to relative success though (whatever that realistically looks like for the club in question)

Aside from this seasons cup run, I fail to see what Martinez has actually achieved. I just don't see what he's produced at Wigan beyond what they had when he arrived.

Especially with the TV Money. Compo shouldnt be an excuse.

When you see that Wigan's star player is Shaun Maloney who they got on a free transfer and they play good football whilst still managing to keep them up each season and now getting them to a cup final on by far the lowest budget and smallest fan base in the premier league, you start to maybe think Martinez is actually maybe a good manager.

Yeah, five million is the money you earn from finishing 6th rather than 12th. If he's better it'll take him three years max to make up the money.

This seasons cup run is the answer.

You are just playing devils advocate now, you don't even want Martinez yourself.
Who would you take?

It's not by far the lowest budget. It's not even the lowest budget at all.

Maloney wasn't free for one.

Because in the time he's been at Wigan, every other team with that kind of budget has been relegated, most of them after 1 season.

Don´t get what you´re saying at all.

Do you mean Martinez would be a relegation battler whereever he managed?

Who would you have, a manager currently managing a team at the top end of one of Europes leagues? Why would someone who´s qualified for the CL or even the Europa league come here and not have European football nor money to spend?

In my opinion you want a manager who regards the job as a massive chance and who has something to prove, just like what Utd did with Ferguson and have now done with Moyes.
