Alll those shouting for Martinez must have either had a visit or unexplained Amnesia...


He wouldn't come back here anyway.

If he wasn't such a lovely bloke he would probably tell us all to swivel.
 

He brought in:

Lukaku
Barry
McCarthy
Stones
Barkley
Deulofeu

That's roughly half a team there that pushed us on in his first season.

Yeah it went badly wrong but the stuff about it being Moyes team is not true at all. The first season was all on him as much as the following two seasons were.

To be fair Martinez was a pretty young manager when he was here. He was/is at an age where he is learning all the time, managers can improve just like players.

I wouldn't have him back though purely because he wouldn't get a proper chance.
This. People forget how boss McCarthy was that first season. Absolute machine.

It was RM who brought through Stones, yet some want to give Moyes the credit for the sturdy defense in RM's first season because of the sloths Jags and Distin? Unreal.
 
Looking at Twitter it seems Wolves fans have nothing but praise for him.
Am sure they do.... We're a fanbase that can't be appeased. Not matter what....we had one of the most successful managers ever and even then people still weren't happy.

I want people to have an opinion about their club but I feel its goes beyond with blues, beyond to the point where if they don't get what they want everything else is a disaster and the club are personally attacking them

I personally had my favourite for the job and it wasn't Nuno but I'll give him my full support going forward and I would give it to whoever it was....even Potter.

I genuinely feel we're in danger of becoming a too fractured a fanbase constantly fighting against each other,Even today I found myself arguing with a fellow blue in work while my red colleagues sat back and laughed.

This was an eye opener!

One thing us blues have had is our togetherness, our stubbornness our ability to give as good as we get but I feel this has eroded of late we're probably the most polarised fans in the country.
 
Probably their greatest wealth of talent ever though. I’m not doubting the job he’s done by the way, just saying he needs to prove this level at domestic level

The early to mid 80's team was pretty good too. Cuelemans, Gerets, Preud-Homme, Scifo, Pfaff, Van Der Elst, Vercuateren, they had a lot of talent. The Belgian domestic game was so much stronger back then.

Jagielka was recorded as our fastest player around that time and Distin was rapid given his size, not sure either we’re sloths?
Not the point of the post though I know and yeah McCarthy was brilliant before he got injured and Stones has gone on to win loads of trophies.

i understand the points but at heart it’s driven by a desire to win, to be the best. This isn’t just any club. It’s history and it’s past success, it’s culture drives this desire. Is there an Everton fan who’d be ‘happy’ with 7th?

He didn’t bring in Stones or Barkley. They were very highly rated young players he inherited. Del wasn’t really a big hit either.
