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

[mythbuster]

@ianefc backs everything up with stats. I genuinely marvel how quickly he has them to hand. You can't argue with the facts.

Oh, I might have known you 2 beauts would team up

If he wins the cup - g'wan. If he doesn't, he can take a long walk off a short plank for all I care.

I've lost all confidence in him basically, we are way too inconsistent and just plain baffling at times (as per the Brownie OP anyway).

As opposed to how great we were before he took over?

Not great but consistently better than average

He was supposed to be a step up

Supposed to be by who's reckoning? I'm pretty sure we're still a Premier League club and we have a great squad of players that is probably underachieving, but it's not all doom and gloom

Consistent 5th - 7th (PLACE TROPHY WOO) were already a thing before him, year in year out.

By everyone who agreed and said he'd be a massive step up from Moyes. And we're still a PL club, but then again so were Villa, so are Sunderland (barely, sorry Sland bois) and many other teams. We're Everton, NSNO surely means SOMETHING still?! We can't just close our eyes and write off season after season because our manager is supposedly going to turn it around "next year" (ding ding BAWK) for the 3rd year in a row?

Has the bluffer been sacked yet?

Don't cry mate. We're still not s bad as those weapons across the park

Not shedding a single tear, like, just saying

We can hopefully never get as bad as them, I fear now though, money and that... lol

By his own when he promised CL football.

Moyes teams consistently chasing top 6. Wasn't good enough.

but now bottom half 2 years in a row suddenly is acceptable.

This man has fooled some of the more easily led into thinking that's our level.

Haha here we go again blaming the players

Think that will tell you enough about the nature of this website...... Absolute poison

 

[The Equaliser]

Still doesn't change the fact that 72 points is our record total in the Premier League. Even if I do sort of agree with you ;P

It's not our record since 3 points for a win was introduced though, which makes it quite a meaningless stat unless you believe football was invented in 1992 like Sky Sports do.

Mate, can we cut out the name calling. Thanks

 

[mythbuster]

Mate, can we cut out the name calling. Thanks

Yes. Fair play. I was out of order.

 

[The Esk]

Yes. Fair play. I was out of order.

Thanks.

 

[a bell maul]

Yeah, with 59 points.......

that is incorrect, but regardless, I would rather come 4th (and get a CL spot) than 5th and get Europa...wouldn't you?
