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

[davek]

The fact that we finished 5th. That's unremarkable.

Yeah. 5th was poor. I agree.

Kin ell.

I think I'm gonna be hearing the words ''72 points'' in my sleep tonight

 

[GwladysBlue]

Honestly can't believe people still waste their time trying to reason with Dave.

The man will not change his opinion despite all the evidence against Martinez. He is on the wind-up.

Radio Sport here in NZ is just wall-to-wall Leicester City.



I wish Everton was better at football

It's your duty to call up talkback radio and inform them of the phenomenal nature of 72 mate...

 

[dannyboy]

Lest we forget the magical European tour ending in the round of 16. We'll talk about that for years to come as well.

That's over 70m. Not like he's had nothing to spend is it

Thats gross spend mate.

*sigh*

 

[deipnosophist]

Well done dave

 

[Slippin Jimmy]

Net spend of £100m and finish outside the top 5.

He'll need that much to replace the entire defence won't he.

 

[davek]

Hilarious. It won't be too funny though when the next manager gets nowhere near 70 points having been backed tens of millions though will it?

Over to the new manager. Get near Mariinez's total and a CL spot or theres the door.

Good luck to him. He'll need it.

 

[TheHumbleEgg]

Can I use that for my May Unbeaten thread mate?

....have it for you new tattoo if you want mate. Think I might....

 

[Steve Wigan]

Don't know but looking who is available i've got a horrible feeling we'll all be underwhelmed by who we end up with.

Sky touting the manager of Rangers now...can't even remember his name.

 

[Jamiednm]

Yeah. 5th was poor. I agree.

Kin ell.

Jesus. Do you know the meaning of the word 'unremarkable'?

I'll spell it out. Unremarkable = not remarkable. Not out of the ordinary. A serious title challenge or winning the title would be remarkable, not finishing 5th FFS!

You're the one that said 'poor', not me.

Finishing 5th is unremarkable for an established Premier League club with our history, and a recent history of finishing between 4th and 7th.

Martinez finishing 5th in his first season was reasonably impressive, nothing more. Your insistence that 72 points is some incredible feat is embarrassing.

 

[davek]

He'll need that much to replace the entire defence won't he.

Yes. Because Jagielka and baines are muck.

 

[blue to the bone]

People do know there is an ignore option on this forum. It's not been used enough !
