Roberto Martinez discussion

[jackyboy]

Rodgers?

 

[Prevenger17]

Howard?

I'll give you that one.

10 home defeats & 10 home wins since the start of 2014/15 season

Proper relegation form,

How is it going backwards? In three of the seasons under Moyes before he left we were bottom half after 22 games.

So how is this going backwards?

We finished fifth. Then we finished 11th. We don't look like going any higher than that. We may even finish lower. That's is going backwards.

The league doesn't lie.

Not true.

The early indications were that he was good. Let's not get all "I told you so" after his first season in charge. It's been a steady and gradual decline since then and there is no sign of it stopping.

18 months is neither gradual or steady

 

[KevMirallas]

Really struggling now. I want him to succeed so much, and he has done some brilliant things, but I just can't see him ever adapting enough to fix the glaring issues.

But, as has been said, he's never getting sacked unless we're in actual danger of relegation.

 

[chicoazul]

Genuinely interested to read a rational defence of Martinez at this point. Not a WUM post, but someone who actually thinks he's the right man for the job and can actually give reasons.

Because for the life of me I can't think of one.

This wouldn't be the place to give it right now.

I disagree. I know for a fact some never fancied him.

 

[Bungle]

I agree with you there mate, could we get neil Warnock in as his assistant do you think?

Pipe down neil you clown unless you have something productive to add.

 

[Michaelcoyb]

There are a few players who think they are too good for the club that I think he needs to get rid.

 

[RFUS]

We've only won 1 more than Sunderland, Newcastle and Swansea (17th-19th place teams) and 1 fewer than West Brom. 3 fewer than West Ham, Liverpool, Southampton, Watford and Palace.

Football is about winning. You can talk about possession, goals scored, assists etc all day but these things need to service wins. We have such brilliant players but we are the epitome of average (6 wins, 6 defeats and a league high 11 draws).

 

[mightymoyes]

Any serious suggestions for who his replacement could Be?

joe kinnear would be an improvement

 

[Coffee and TV]

Martinez has done a lot of stuff that I appreciate but his stubbornness and inability to organise a defense is costing us points and should cost him his job

 

[polish]

He lost me today. Complete lack of organization, not good enough going forward and unable to win at home again. It's not bad luck, it's bad managament unfortunately.

I really like him and thought he'll improve, but he's letting me down every week. 6 wins all season is a nightmare. Swansea has the same number and West Brom got 7!
