We have a turned into a side that has no fight, spirit, passion, we have turned into a team that hasn't got the fight to get back into games when losing and go till the end, it's sad to see, i was hoping we were going to go forward as a club but we are going backwards and action needs to be taken quickly.
 
Yep...Martinez gets no credit at all for sticking with his young striker through stretches of poor form. No credit for giving him the confidence to take his chances. Nope not credit at all.

But that is the paradox. He is good at that. He has developed the side as an attacking unit, (we looked good for the first 20 mins).

*enter stage right davek with goal stats*

But. We. Are. 12th.

Again. He has a flaw. And he shows no signs of addressing it.
 
Hahaha no they're not

Hahahahahahah

Unreal stuff.

"Yeah it's sound you've filled your boots against Barnsley, Norwich (draw in the 90 mins and extra time as bets are settled) and Boro in a cup you didn't win, let's forget about those nasty little home defeats"

FFS it's not a tax rebate where we can offset things lol
 

At least we have a season and crack at silverware...how many other clubs can now say the same?

kin moaners on here.

Stop your bellyaching and get behind the team.

Everybody is behind the team - not the manager. Stop defending the indefensible - you're like a union rep defending the incompetent fool everybody knows should be marched out of the building by security never to return.
 
Manager Roberto Martinez said: "We all are (booing). I think you could hear our boos in the dressing room. It is exactly the same."

"We are a club that there has been a bit of a change of generation. A lot of players have come in but incredible young talent needs know-how and lessons and to develop."

"The frustration we all have is we can see the quality we have in our squad and we can't really gain some sort of momenutm.
"But 1984 is the last time we got into the semi-finals of the two domestic cups and this generation can make us very successful."

Martinez was disappointed his side could not build on a positive start to the game.
The Spaniard said: "We adapted to the game really well and maybe we shocked Man Utd a little bit. They never seemed to feel comfortable.

"The first half was probably exactly what we were looking for. You look at the little amount Joel Robles was involved for - that is the first time I have seen such a controlling 45 minutes.

"But we didn't use opportunities of great one-on-ones well enough. In the second half we got into a comfortable mood but we switched off in one action which is an unfortunate, easy goal to concede.That moment was a massive blow. You don't expect to concede when you are well in the game."


Was that Roberto...or Brendan Rodgers. I wish he'd be straight in interviews and just say the obvious. Today, he simply has to say "two bang average teams, one top quality goal-keeper".

I don't disagree...and I think he should be thanked for his services at the end of the season.

I just can't agree that he should get absolutely no credit from some on here.
