"The fans wanted him sacked"

First move by me if I was Martinez would be a very simple one: take the armband off Jagielka and hand it to McCarthy.

That's be a statement of intent.

Leave Jags alone you utter monster, Jamo aint a captain, im sorry hes not, young John and sadly the albino ghost are much better options, even the Bosnian Zidane.

Jags is a terrible, terrible Captain, hes worse than Neville, words I thought I would never type, but hes got the band for now, taking it off him isnt a statement of intent, its a slap in the face.

He's the very worst captain you could have for a time like this: an utter showroom dummy. Who could be inspired by him?
 

John Stones is not only a superb footballer, but hes a leader of men, he doesnt need no stinking armband to do that.
The obvious choice for captain last season should have been baines, but he has stunk the place out with his performances this season compared to his usual best (partially down to worry of conceeding goals due to a stupid system being deployed by a tactically useless manager) I agree in time Besic could be a great captain, but I worry the fact that he isn't english (language barriers could stand in his way to get a message across to the rest of the team) For that reason alone I would have to choose the captain going forwards to be John Stones, but he needs to learn to shout at players and not shy away from the more 'seasoned pro's like Jags, Howard, Naismith, Baines' etc when they are not performing which I feel at present he may struggle to do.
 
Not exactly
Last season, he took a team that was already 6th best before he arrived, added some very high value players, mostly on loan, and improved us by one place.

Clarity

Moyes said he couldn't take that team any higher. Clarity indeed.
 

But done with the best squad of players Wev had since the 80's.

The squad he was left with, with barkley, stones, Barry, Lukaku and McCarthy added to it should always of been doing well. And not just for one season!
The same squad Moyes walked away from saying he couldn't do anything better with.....well, Martinez has had a double there with his highest points and European run.
