Roberto Martinez discussion

[AaronTheBlue]

hopefully the penny has dropped but we've seen this before.

If he can keep it up, keeps joel in goal when howards back then we can sort of push for europe maybe.

No messing around at the back is totally evident, balls are being cleared from danger. No fannying about, hopefully he's swallowed his pride with this constant over plating at the back.

A time and place for everything

Isnt that the clip that produced the post of the decade from @davek

The last week's performances have brought home just why the fans have been so restless these past few months.

We have the playing staff on our books to push the top places of this league but for whatever reason we have allowed out of form players and ildiscipline to cost us game after game.

Robles should now remain no1. The back 4 should only pass it about when completely necessary thus cutting out stupid errors and we can fly up this league.

I really want Roberto to succeed, it has been so frustrating this season and indeed last season.

This is exactly what makes him a complete enigma, last three games we look as if we know exactly what we are doing and where we are going. A few matches ago we were lost. We now have a run of five winnable games, we will have a better idea of how our season will finish prior to the Arsenal game.
Today I am happy with what Martinez is doing, three wins, three clean sheets, a bit of business in the transfer window but I'm not totally convinced, we have had a couple of false dawns before. At the moment hope springs eternal.

My judgement on Martinez is from now until the end of the season. It was a good win tonight but anything less would have been dreadful.

We need to get our first set of back to back wins for the season with the game on the weekend, prove the doubters wrong Bobby.

Following on from my post above earlier in the week.

Our performance today on both ends of the pitch was as good as it gets - we could've (and should've!) scored at least 5 or 6 today, but a few good saves from Butland prevented it.

The Newcastle win was the minimum expectation for me but today we completely dominated and again showed signs of improvement.

We have a huge game against West Brom next at home, perfect timing with the fans happy again. Win this and suddenly we're in touching distance of the top 5 again.

The key thing is Bobby sticking with this starting 11 for now, and keeping these clean sheets going.

At present I have absolutely no opinion of the man whatsoever

 

[Woolly Blue]

He ignored our requests for him to dance at the Britannia
A cheery wave isn't good enough, I want him sacked.

No one gives a toss.

No point rushing a decision. I think we need to give it another 5-6 season before we form meaningful opinions.

Bit of improvement there then.

Hoping the atmosphere will improve at G P now,starting with West Brom.

Marginally but I refuse to give this man a free pass on the back of a couple of decent results after the amount of damage he has caused over the last 18 months

Your username is incredibly apt.

Martinez has single handedly turned this club around from the last dregs of the Moyes era.

With Roberto in charge it will come good.
