Roberto Martinez Discussion - Including Live Poll (Poll Reset 1st May)

[TheHumbleEgg]

Pretty much our manager in a nutshell, from his own words

If GERVAIS wrote this sort of palaver he'd get another BAFTA.

 

[blue to the bone]

I take it you have read The Mirror interview also ?

I have. And I still.don't believe he will.be here next season . Keep his name in the press for what he sees as positive reasons is what he is doin for me anyway

 

[The Esk]

Come on @The Esk. We need guidance

The nearest parallel I can think of is that we are at decree nisi and we are waiting for decree absolute. No-one knows whether it has been granted tonight or at the season end.

I'm glad to read from an earlier post, that someone else is talking about the future ahead with Moshiri as I was a bit of a lone voice, but I'll stress again his plans for the club are huge, he's prepared to invest significantly and he knows from years of business experience when you invest heavily in something you need the right people to run things - in the case of football, on and off the pitch.

First priority is on the pitch, and we will have a new manager for the summer, pre-season and new season - someone who has the ability and experience of running successful campaigns, ie a winner.

Off the pitch similarly - we're a sleeping giant and someone with Moshiri's commercial intellect won't allow that opportunity to go to waste and will recruit appropriately to ensure it happens.

I wish I could tell you with more clarity precisely where we are this evening, but honestly I don't know - I do know where we will be in the summer and beyond though.

Everton are his employer. Everton can prevent an interview on the Everton Training ground

They're not going to stop him sticking himself in the shop window when they're binning him off are they.

G'wed Bobby, attempt to sell yourself a bit before we swerve ya.

That will do me mate

WOW. Stubborn and deluded.

He accepts no criticism, his arrogance and ego about his (failed) philosophy is almost comical. What kind of Manager can speak in these terms when he's just secured our worst ever home league record? He goes on about our away stats as if they're amazing, when they're actually just about what you'd expect.

I can see how his deluded optimism wins the gullible/'romantic' Kenwright over, but I'm sure billionaire Moshi will be telling him to sling his hook very shortly.

...that interview makes me feel that he may genuinely be a tad unstable.

He is essentially telling us that 'his way' isn't working...he concedes that 'the other way' will get more points....then stresses he'll never change?!?

Utterly, utterly baffling. And a bit worrying also.

Again esk thank you but reading an interview like that it looks to me like Martinez isn't expecting the sack any time soon

What do you make of Martinez's interviews that have come out this evening?

Good god the man is on another planet

What manager openly assumes his two greatest assets could be leaving.

Ive never heard anything like it

Maybe he hasn't been told. Or he's delusional
You need to relax a bit mate. He's a goner

 

[MartSlinger]

What do you expect him to do anyway?
Whether he knows he's getting binned or not he's going to act the same until its official, why would you expect anything different? He's manager of EFC as of now and he's speaking as if he's the EFC manager. He's not going ruin an interview because he's getting binned is he?

 

[EvertonRhys]

He's just popcorning everywhere now. Stones/ Lukaku comments and accepting an interview with Carragher and Dominic King. At least he's having fun!

Thanks so much for the information and insight you provide. It has been a tough few days and your posts are always positive about the future which is great. If you had a moment, I'd like to get your thoughts/insight on why Moshiri has retained Elstone as CEO? I made allowances for Kenwright remaining on as a figurehead, but it seems to me as an outsider that we cannot progress until both of these guys step down. Do you expect Moshiri will eventually have them both replaced with his own appointees?
