Moyes Potential Replacement

[BlueLlama]

Hopefully this will be sorted quickly.
I also hope that he is surrounded by people such as Neville,Stubbs,Ferguson ,Weir as they will retain a certain amount of stability with Martinez bringing something different to the table.

I am relieved that it is isn't Pereira and I am not sure that he was ever anything other than a chat room favourite.

We were all so used to stability under David Moyes and any change is hard to accept.
Look at Utd where David Moyes seems to dismantling the most successful backroom set up in the premiership,can you imagine how their supporters must feel.

I wanted Mourinho or Pellegrini ,but got Martinez and for all our sakes I hope he is as good as the commentators say.

Errrm, really?

I hope not. But then I'd have thought he might have knocked it on the head at Wigan after getting webbed week in, week out.

I know what you mean mate and I am not convinced by him. I just think us and Wigan and not really comparable

He loves 3-4-3 at Wigan. He won't change it.

he didn't play 3-4-3 at Swansea, he believes in playing a formation which suits players at the time.

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

I reckon Martinez will be a good appointment for us.

is jason scotland available? could solve our striking problems

No, Barnsley have swooped for him, too late.

Hope you lot take Martinez. Don't fancy him down Stoke

Was quite open to Martinez at the start when moyes left but quickly changed my mind and did not want him whatsoever! Mainly due to his defensive tactics/formation ect...

I'm just hoping his flaws will not be a problem at a big club with quality players or at least he's learnt from his mistakes because he does have a lot of plus points.

If we start our first game under him playing a 3-4-3 then I will be seriously worried!

As long as it's not Jason MvAteer

Don't worry lads, in the next 20 and a quarter hours Martinez will sign for Stoke and we'll sign Vitor.

Viva la revelucione!

Don't know if it's been posted but this is from the BBC website,

Whelan told BBC Sport he would have to "wait and see" who came in for Martinez. But the Press Association quoted Whelan as saying: "Everton rang me and I said they have permission to talk to him."

 

[hktoffee]

He switches between 4-3-3 and 3-4-3 at Wigan, so that's not true.

No, you're wrong. That is true.

3 CBs at the back.

Viva la revelucione!

I still believe!

VITOR IN

He doesn't really play 3-4-3, it's more like 3-5-1-1, which, if you have the right players, is an excellent formation. It's nothing to be overly worried about.

 

[hktoffee]

How do you know! Why would anyone change a successful back four with a good defensive record.

I said Wigan. You can see it right?

Stoke don't have any players who can play football anyway
