OK we can be disappointed with Martinez being appointed, maybe we feel we deserved a more "exotic" manager rather than a bloke that just got Wigan relegated.
I was at first hoping Martinez didn't get the job but thinking about it I feel it will be a good appointment, he has got several of the qualities we liked about Moyes and doesn't have some of the ones we hated about Moyes.
Like Moyes:
1. Longevity - Martinez isn't going to disappear after 6 months, he wants to be at a club to build a team and improve on it.
2. Transfer Bargains - Martinez taps into different leagues and picks up some good, cheap talent.
3. Infrastructure - Martinez involves himself at all levels through the club.
Unlike Moyes:
1. Bottle - Martinez will setup to attack and if the team is capable he will not sit on a 1-0 at home to Norwich.
2. Negative Tactics - We all wished Moyes would attack more, Martinez is definitely more offensive.
3. Hooooof - Martinez will be more likely to play on the ground instead of 80 yard hit and hopes.
I feel he could be a good acquisition for the club and can take us a step beyond where Moyes couldn't, when out squad is fit we are a match for anyone. With a few shrewd attacking purchases there is no reason we can't get top 4 this coming season.
Instead of being disappointed lets get behind him and see what he can do!
