You jumped straight on my post for suggesting we may lose 3 or 4 and I didn't even put a timeframe on it. I hope we win every game, but I accept we won't, I also rate our potential top 12-16 players and think they're complimented by some good youngsters, so when I see poor, slow, non penetrating football devoid of any idea when we're going forward. Injuries all over the gaff, since the manager got shut of the club doctor (where their was clearly a massive breakdown in communication) then I point the blame soley in Martinez. He is stubborn, has no plan B and in many post match pressers treats the fans like idiots with some of the stuff he comes out with. At the moment he has had 1 good and 1 bad season, so hopefully he will get it right from now on and we can compete within reason this season to at least a top 7 finish. Unfortunately I just can't see it, and long term if we continue to underperform the squad is going to be broken up AND I certainly don't trust him to rebuild it.
Let's see where we are after 10 games.
Should be noted that he should have been backed more by the money men, they're a bigger problem than Martinez will ever be.
if we can keep rooney and dunc fit we will be okay

First half we were okay but lacked the final ball. Despite the performance being okay, Kone & Osman managed to be the worst players on the pitch by an absolute mile.
Second half was truly awful. Osman managed to get worse and Coleman for that second goal was an utter shambles.
Too many average players in this squad. Kone, Osman & Naismith will be called upon more often than not and thats quite frankly, embarrassing.
The best part of the day was when Rooney & Ferguson came on. The atmosphere when they came on was great.

...let's hope things fall into place next week.
Just on way back to Woolverhampton from the game. Atmosphere was ace and seeing Big Dunc and Rooney up top together was special.
As for how prepared we look for the season, fitness seemed ok but the play wasn't great in my opinion and the problems from last season still seem to be there. Need at least 3 bodies in before the window shuts, and if Roberto doesn't iron out the flaws in our play I can't see him lasting that long in the job.

I will find you and consensually bum you
Anything that involves some man on man Deulofeu action is sound with me.
