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

[We'veGotTonyHibbert!]

Hopefully this picture says all we we want it to say!

Besic off, Tony on...

He's a good midfielder, not a right back like.

 

[COYB]

'Give him some money & another season'... This is a man who spent £26m+ on Niasse, Kone, McGeady & Besic.

.

i would pay 26 mill for Besic

Worth reading some thoughts on Martinez before he became manager...

Haha @MoutsGoat never fancied him that's for sure.

And... we looked better at the back immediately.
I like Mo, but he ain't no right back, no sirreebob.

Besic ain't no Hibbo.
Nobody ain't no Hibbo.
Arise Sir Tony of Two Dogs

I smiled when I learned the name of the family in Coro St... the one with a girl in a wheelchair and the ginger guy in it: it's the Windasses!

This place never used to be about that though, it's become more about who can be right as opposed to just chatting about our favourite club.

Us old timers are going into hiding daily because of it.

Grats tho!

You're wrong here, the ones who were desperate to be right are the ones who backed Martinez, the ones who are right are the ones who realised he was never going to be good enough.

 

[ilikecheese]

He's a good midfielder, not a right back like.

Surprised at how slow he looked as a RB...didn't think he'd look exposed for pace. Could be down to unfamiliar reading of the game out there.

 

[ianefc]

I like you, but I'd give up mate.

Never. It's been a tough night, no doubt, but I'm convinced I was right about Martinez months before most. Although I'd like to be proven wrong.

 

[Elong]

You're wrong here, the ones who were desperate to be right are the ones who backed Martinez, the ones who are right are the ones who realised he was never going to be good enough.

Davek corned yo ass for 2 years.

 

[Conspiracy-theorist]

Difficult to fire the man after he today successfully navigated us to mathematical safety re staying in the PL. Having said that, I would like to see him appoint a decent defence coach since I only give our defence performance this season, a bare pass mark.

Why? he wasn't brought in to save us from the brink of relegation.....

but If he's allowed to continue, which I'm sure he won't be, someone else would need to brought in to do exactly that at some point next season.

Who actually give a flying one if they are right or wrong though?! Why does it matter?

You ever seen them in the same room mate *taps nose*

 

[ianefc]

Davek corned yo ass for 2 years.

He didn't. I was right about Martinez Hense his imminent sacking, Dave (God bless him) couldn't of been more wrong.

I was right, he's a goner.

 

[mythbuster]

No. That doesn't work that way.

I had a problem with the fee only. I thought we could get him for around £18-20m.

I did not have a problem with the signing. You were wrong.

So, what you're saying is.... You had a problem with us spending £28 million on him?

You (you?) thought we could get him cheaper? Well, guess what, we couldn't get him cheaper, and we never got him cheaper.

You thought he was a waste of money. Stop saying otherwise and chatting total wham.
