How much creative attacking football have you seen us play this season? Our midfield has struggled to keep hold of the ball all season. We’ve missed Rooney badly the last 2 games as well.

That’s why i said pretence. Holding the ball was a problem last season as well at times. Ironic considering Martinez’s philosophy. We went from passing sideways and back to nothing.

What did he say about the dog football he’s offered to us???

..that one thing I particularly like about him, he’s up front about wanting us to be more creative and score goals. You can’t turn the group of players he’s had available to him into Barcelona. He clearly wants players back from long-term injury as well as new transfers.

I enjoy his press conferences, he says things as they are.
 

Did he offer an apology to the fans??

For what exactly?

Coming into the club and doing precisely what was needed - stopping us leaking goals, making us hard to beat and moving out of the relegation places - and in double quick time?

His acknowledgement of the lack of creation and goal scoring chances is refreshing, RoKo gave us bs a-plenty.

You might not like him Chris, but cut the guy some slack eh, he's done more in a month than Koeman did in four !!
 
Even though we hadn’t won away, I did still expect to go away to lower sides and win.

The fact that we never is a big reason as to why the last manager was sacked.

Going to rubbish like Newcastle and not winning on a regular basis with the squad we have is a sackable offence.


The squad we have?????

Makeshift back 4
A piss poor right back doubling up as an even poorer left back

20 million midfielders

No recognised Centre forward

No pace
No height
No width

Ye its a cracking squad. We should be battering teams left right and centre.
 
I think I may have just about figured out why you don't want Allardyce at the club. It's nothing to do with his managerial abilities, is it?
You don't like him as a person. Pathetic tbh. Personality, soap opera whinging football fans, that's all this is.

1. He has never been arrested, investigated criminally, questioned under caution or convicted of any fraudulent or criminal behaviour. If there was any real, tangible evidence against him, not just speculation, he would have been.
2. He never took any extra money when in the England job. He even said he'd have to check with the FA first.
3. He said he knows there are ways around the rules. Questionable morally perhaps, but I'm more than happy with someone who will find every extra little bit to gain an edge being our manager.


So now that it's clear that you have a personal problem with him, I assume you don't support some of our current players either?
- Rooney has just been convicted of drink driving, and has been banging grannies and slappers
- Gibson was a drink driver, and awful professional
- Pienaar was questioned for slapping his missus
- Duncan Ferguson regularly assaulted people on the football pitch

I imagine if one went to the vaults, they would find nothing but your full condemnation of these players?


Honestly lads, I'd have a lot more respect for your opinions if you just stated it was because he is a fat brummie who loves to talk himself up, rather than cherry pick small points to suit your argument.

It’s not that he’s a fat crook it’s he plays HOOF the ball and defend for a point every game.
