Whatever he does, he puts more faith in his players than Moyes did - which can be his downfall.
If he doesn't get a creative mid, he'll keep with Barkley.
And I don't mind that at all.

There's in trouble and 'in trouble'. We'd have to be dancing on the trapdoor for any managerial change. It wont come down to that anyway. This team already look like they have much more resolve than their bottling performances last season displayed.
It'll be a comfortable top half finish.

I wouldn't be surprised if he told the board he would walk if Stones was sold and they decided to back him.
That is the only credible explanation there can be for EFC turning down such large amount of money for a very promising CB.
The only proviso being that if Stones stayed, there would be little money available to bring new faces in.

Not a chance RM issued ultimatums.
As you say in your second sentence: Martinez has probably accepted the choice on offer between a sale and retaining Stones + a couple of purchases from the bargain basement.
And that;s what we're getting, make no mistake.
Any fanciful notion that Martinez has been given a late window war chest by the board who took out a loan for just such a spending spree is deluded.
Matty you really need to step away from the forum mate.
Its saturday night we're all winding down & having a few beers.You seam to look at all the negatives.
I've seen far worse starts to a season (& much worse transfer windows) After Tuesday there may or may not be a time to fume.
But for now mate a hard earned point International break coming up, transfers finished then with a settled squad we'll move forward.

So where does Ross play?

He said he was hoping to get one more in when interviewed, with other clubs you'd probably think the manager was just keeping coy but I genuinely think he's telling the truth.
Imagine if there was an injury/loss of form to Jags or Stones...

This is my concern. Just not getting it right on the field is he? Ok, fatigue from Wednesday can be mentioned, but his selections just don't scream of a Manager going out there to win.
Basically the same team that beat Soton 3-0.

So you don't want to see Mirallas and Deulofeu ever start then because that team beat Southampton 3 games ago?
Not after a 120 minute game on Wednesday. Probably should have had Rom off the bench.

You foresee any possibility he goes into the Chelsea match in 2 weeks with Mirallas and Deulofeu starting and taking the game to a poor Chelsea defence?
