Roberto Martinez discussion

[Greek Fisherman]

3-2 up, 10 to go, with both Gibson and Besic on the bench!!

• Simply doesn't know how to close a game out
• 3 wins at home all yr
• Haven't beaten a side in the top half
• Haven't won two games back to back all yr
• Conceded 28 goals already

I rest my case.

 

[Chang Elephant]

LOL, cannot believe the fume on here

He needs a mentor. Not Jagielka, he's too nice.

He needs someone who's scummy as possible. Someone who you could bottle and they'd just stare at you. Someone who kicks, shoves and shouts at the opposition the entire game just because it's fun to him.

We need Shawcross.

Could've got Robert Huth for nothing.

 

[chicoazul]

Let me understand this, as I think I know a bit about football.

Me not accepting that the manager is performing as good as he could with these players makes me a "beaut"?

If you want rid of him in the middle of the season mostly because didn't want him from the first place then yes you're a beaut.

 

[Tubey]

Nah mate. Criticism is where criticism is due. Our defence is not good enough.
But reactionary beautism?
That's what I'm against.
Every loss out in force straight after the final whistle

That's not quite true is it? People were seeing the writing on the wall in the match thread, and even after wins people still say what's on their mind.

The Newcastle win papered over very glaring cracks which were exposed ruthlessly today. The manager is culpable, especially with his (lack of) decision making at 3-2.

Some people have made their minds up on Martinez and, let's face it, the results say that they're 100% right about him.

What do you want them to do - happy clap all season and switch off their brain?

 

[Pacman]

If people are happy with finishing 10th-13th with arguably the best striker in the league netting every week then keep martinez.

If you think we should be much higher and that without Lukaku we could be even worse with our shambles of a defence then he needs to go.

Hows your time machine that has enabled you to come back from tomorrow to post mate - or are you actually posting 10 mins after as well?

btw - just re-using another posters 'entitled deluded Geordie' remark is bad fanboy behaviour

I just posted the exact same thing as you.

Great minds and all that.

 

[zirc]

To be fair to him and everyone here, Howard's always been a laughing stock of a keeper (for the last 3 or 4 seasons at least).

Howard was a very good keeper, one of the better ones in the division I'd say, it's really only last season he fell off a cliff. We got rid of Distin I don't know why we didn't do the same with Howard. He singlehandedly costs us so many points.

 

[Kiwi]

Aren't you reacting here? Even quicker

Your whole argument just collapsed

Whilst you were using things you could only of wished to have the funny attributes and intelligence to of created.

Oh I'm angry and frustrated, I'll just come back tomorrow and post some more once the result has settled and I have a bit more perspective about it.
Others won't

Nice managing roberto your disciples will be pleased tonight

 

[cronullasharks]

Ah, but you're a super fan, supporting Roberto and his aversion to winning matches.

But they're the beauts for not being happy with 6 from 19.

Sound.

Hilarious watching people come in this thread trying to copy chico word for word fishing for likes.

 

[eurosrees]

Southampton, west Brom, Sunderland, villa, Newcastle, Cheslsea. That's who we've beat this season. Avarage league position of the sides we've beat is 16.3, rubbish that.

We need Shawcross.

The fact we got Mori over an experienced centre half this summer is beyond ridiculous. That right there shows Martinez' complete lack of understanding when it comes to this position.

Stones will get there eventually, it's just going to take him a lot longer because of the manager.

 

[reidscrossgray]

Nevermind...our next manager is on sky sports 1 now

 

[By god I'm blue]

If you want rid of him in the middle of the season mostly because didn't want him from the first place then yes you're a beaut.

But I did want him in the first place, so that screws your theory you massive nimrod!

Still wanting Jelavic back?
