I think most people are replying because they are bored and you make yourself a target, a bit like MickM86, by stating things most people would think ridiculous in a manner as if they are fact and everybody else who disagrees is a "clown".

You are pulling up a non-point, and now it seems the only reason for it is yet another "I was right,you will see....Ill wait for you to catch up" point.

Anyway, on topic, looking forward to having Lukaku back with Lassie an option off the bench. Optionsss

I'm not gong to start lying mate. This all started because I said before the derby 'We will get battered'. I've been wrong with 1 thing this season and that was ManUtd.

I don't want to lie to myself and start saying 'we will win the FA Cup' and 'we can get 4th' when I know we can't. thats just ridiculous.

This! Ste, your arguing about a tiny detail. People moaned about Moyes' subs as he did some shockers (wasn't there a spurs game and Distin came on when we were losing or something). Martinez has shown he's willing to attack teams and it's great, but that doesn't mean do it ALL the time. Trying to protect a lead in your first derby with 5 mins left is hardly criminal.

NEVER make a sub STRAIGHT after you score.

You don't know we can't.

Therein lies the problem in your posting.

People saying they believe we can get fourth or win the cup. Normal.

You say we can't as if it's fact, and add arrogant comments like "ill wait for you to catch up", and calling other supporters clowns.

.....not sure why 'we can't win the cup'. I accept that other fancied teams are still in it, but things happen. In '66 we weren't expected to beat Man Utd in the semi and Sheff Wed weren't supposed to beat Chelsea, but it happened. In '95 nobody fancied us to beat Spurs and Man Utd, but it happened. Wigan won the Cup last year. Football is not always predictable.
 
I'm hoping this injury may turn out to be a blessing in disguise,his form started to dip late November,possibly down to the fact this is his first season where he's playing every game,hopefully he comes back refreshed and eases himself in against West Ham ready to rip the Arse the following week,its within his capabilities!!
 
Martinez's substitutions have more often than not been the turning point of the game in our favour. West ham away, villa and Swansea at home being 3 off the top of my head. He's got a few wrong, just like any manager.
 
I've heard of a silent minority, but never a noisy minority :/ Give it a rest Ste and accept that your views are not shared by the other blues on here.
 
Anyone else think Lukaku signing in summer was a done deal due to Martinez' comments about saving money to buy him ?

Not much has been made of this.
