Roberto Martinez discussion

[davek]

Not when I see Leicester with champions league football.

It is farcial.

Ha Ha Ha.

You think Leicester are going to get CL football?

It's January mate and they'll drop like a stone.

We have a very bright future; they have half a season in the limelight. That's just about it really.

Are you high being happy with the crap goals we concede week after week?

We only gave up one crap goal tonight.

The ref had a Shocker for Stones V Sterling on Wednesday, yet Martinez was praised for the result now boot is on the other foot it all changes?

Not necessarily shocking he didn't give it. He pulls his legs away but does make contact. It could've gone either way and if it was given I'd be upset with Stones not the ref. Today it's cut and dry that it was clearly an illegitimate goal given BUT ... that doesn't excuse the error by Tim and Phil and the general lack of mental strength shown by the entire team and inability to see out a two goal lead. In short I'm fuming about every aspect of that game except certain parts of our attacking display.

No. Did I say I was? Moving the goalposts a lot here aren't we?

No, we make the same errors game after game. Who is to blame? The manager. You want to be an apologist for mediocre defending then by all means stand by the manager.

3-2. That would make it a win wouldn't it? I don't think it gets much simpler.

And we didn't? Yes?

Because, like I said, we're almost & often incapable of killing games off.

Because, again, there is insistence to fanny about with the ball and lose possession almost CONSTANTLY.

Are you not seeing that? Or are you also of the school that PERFORMANCE is more important than RESULTS?

He buys an 18 year old right back for the future in Holgate and now he wants another right back for the future with this leeds kid, why don't you buy some proper players to improve the team you bad lightweight and excuse making tosspot

No need for that type of comment. By all means be critical but no name calling please.

Ian, we've shown we can go toe to toe with Spurs, Man City and Chelsea and are disappointed with the results, we should have won today and also beat city by more in the cup game.

We arent far off. Perhaps your frustration is because you can also see how close we are?

More experience for the young lads, a couple more players to come in and a lot to depart and were nicely setup for next season.

The next 2 seasons are where we will shine, @davek has also said similar and thinks a cup win and 8th is fine this season i think?

At the start of the season i would have settled for.top 10 and the team developing + top 6 next year and top 4 the year after....i think weve done well with Galloway and Besic and can see what we are building...

Have some patience...

Nero..canute...

Hahaha. Ok mate. I'm fuming because the ref cost us 2 points. The manager added the extra time on and allowed them to score an offside goal. Defo Martinez's fault.

Again, nowhere have I said I'm happy with mediocrity. Please find the quote where I said I'm happy? Please, go for it lad. Waiting in suspense here! lol

All three were crap. We all know the shortcomings for the first then we get walked through for the second regardless of deflection and then we lose three consecutive headers granted it was a horrible non call.

No idea if they will get CL football but if they win this they are 11 points ahead of 5th and that is a huge gap at any time of the season.

 

[Dharma bum411]

Is it right that Everton haven't beaten anyone in the top half of the table this season? Sure we haven't lost many but still, this ain't good.

 

[Elong]

And we didn't? Yes?

Nothing to do with them scoring an illegal goal then? You're talking a lot, but not saying anything, to quote a great song.

 

[DanEFC92]

Why are you upset with Martinez? Did he give an offside goal and add on 8 extra minutes?

No, that would be the ref. Did you not see the 'and the ref' part of my comment?

Leicester are 11 points clear of West Ham in 5th with 16 games left. You don't think they'll finish 4th????
