Martinez Christmas Poll

[Dymak]

Lovely attitude there m8

I said the same thing to someone who predicted a loss in the 2012 Semi-Final. It may be a bad attitude, but lets see what happens. I honestly want to be wrong, and would wank myself into oblivion if I was, but it really will be no surprise to see people cite losing a semi-final as a Martinez achievement.

So because it didnt work when everyone was absolutely wank, we shouldnt give it a go with some modifications? We play with 2 DM's who's job it is to cover the side that has the ball. I cant think of 1 player last year that was better than the year before.

Sure but the issue is that Deulofeu and Kone have had superb interplay with Lukaku> Lennon and Mirallas do not have that interplay. Naismith got have a dozen games and was dropped, and I think Kone will now

Yes. Let's

.....we survive because the last two managers have been adept enough to shrewdly manage the team. We are not Chelsea, we have no investment. We are in a potentially precarious position and a change in manager is a high risk situation. If we didn't pick the right man it could be catastrophic.

 

[The Equaliser]

The question has no premise because there is zero chance of him getting fired unless we were in the relegation zone with little promise of getting out of it. Not sure firing a manager in mid-season when we are still in 2 cups and a young team is developing would be a particularly good idea anyway.

But we are not tough and resilient anymore and it is so sad to see, despite the good attacking football. Can see us always conceding goals under Martinez and therefore being inconsistent in the league, which is why I believe his tenure as manager will ultimately end in failure. Might sneak a cup though.

Do you find yourself doing this a lot?

I mean would you say you go big on this a times?

Do you consider yourself to be a big [Poor language removed]?

As frustrated as I am right now i'd probably keep till after the semi and see if he takes us to Wembley. Needs a rocket up his arse from the board though to sort out the crap defence/goalkeeper soon or he will have to take the blame for it.

Season performance so far from the manager: 7/10.

Top half of the table and a cup final in sight; add that to the breathtaking football he has his players serving up and it's a pretty good shift since the summer.

More of the same over Christmas and into the New Year and we have a very good season in the offing.

60+ points is still within reach and we've already secured the very good cup run, so my targets are either reached or within reach.

Now I just love that we are 10th out of twenty so yes we are in the top half. Well done Dave, very reassuring.

What are your targets Dave can you remind us please?

Get Stubbs or Neil Lennon in ffs.

Neil Lennon what has he ever done ffs

 

[Kankurette]

Fire him, get mourinho in. Do it now

Because Mourinho is totally going to want to manage us.

 

[atrottel]

Put it this way. If we don't get into Europe and certain players leave because of that, he shouldn't be given the proceeds to spend.

Harsh maybe, but he should know the situation we are in: a rare opportunity to crack the Champions League places with some excellent players that we have managed to keep hold of (and to be fair I credit him for that situation).

Interesting poll results so far.

It looks like the plotters are being faced down again and can't grab a majority in the house of GOT.

From the amount of noise I would have thought a good 80% wanted him out.

The lurkers are speaking to us. Fear the lurkers.

Both were odds on for the job before Martinez was confirmed.

I was not seriously suggesting them mate.
