Roberto Martinez discussion

[Kev The Rat]

Far worse sides than Chelsea will score 2 or 3 a game against us if we play like that

The honeymoon period is well and truly gone

Match going Blues won't take long to turn on him if that sort of tripe is served up

A fair comment

Humiliations dont go down too well. That was a humiliation.

It happens though and to some very decent teams. Arsenal got done by the same score last season and suffered other big losses.

I don't remember our defence being this weak and open under Moyes

May be wrong like as I have a memory like a gold fish

I don't ever remember our defence ever being that weak and open under Moyes

2004 lost 4-3 to united, 3-0 to birmingham drew 3-3 with saints in a row, 10 conceded

2005 got beat 3 in a row 4-0 by bolton, 4-0 by villa, 3-1 by the rs, conceded 11

He needs to be bold and - captain or no captain - [Poor language removed] him right off.

Wenger dropped his club captain last year i believe, and we all laugh at Brenton not being willing to do the same with gerrard, kinda pot kettle black if we stick with jags if the decline - and it must be evident in training is as blatant as it appears atm

If we go to Anfield in a few weeks and get done like we did last season he will be under massive pressure

There isn't a case to be made for him mate. He's stunk to various degrees for ages; now he's just putrid.

Spuds were torn apart by the RS last season .............. oh dang, Sherwood (or was it AVB)

I think RM is strong enough to bin players captain or not.

Very important couple of days of transfer market left now. Surely he knows that a new defensive player or two need to be brought in now?

The stones distin partnership that played so well and put us in with a shout of 4th kinda highlights how bad hes been since coming back even moreso imo

and a new winger mate, Mirrales is a class above any of the other options, unless Atsu is something amazing we need someone creative and consistent the other side

Disagree. If anything we have too many forward-thinking players on the books now. Need at least one solid CB brought in, Jags & Sylvain need some proper competition for their places.

That is a pathetic view. Total cowardice in the face of one defeat.

To begin comparing to previous management is nothing short of short sighted

If we dont improve dramatically they will rip us apart.
Wba looks are best bet in the next few games we will see how good bobby is in the next three or four games

...and hopefully if Duffy had to go it means he's clearing the decks for one CB to come in.
