Martinez Sentiment Poll: In or Out

[chicoazul]

Stubbornness - Refusing to change one's mind or course of action despite pressure to do so.

Many important people who changed the course of history would be lauded for their stubbornness then.

I propose adding the name of davek to this list of greats.

Edward 1st, refused to give up trying to bring peace and order to great britain despite cowardly attacks by terrorists and nonces like william wallace.

Can you imagine having a season record the same as Wigans

Well you don't need to, because its happening in real life.

Lets see what the common things are......mmmmm

Well done sir, I applaud you

However, compare the results and form.

Quite a scary comparison, almost identical

Slippery rock this

This x 1000.

His reading of the game was spot on.

Not with the best team in 2 decades

Well to be fair he has signed David Henen who seems a great player. Lennon has been decent. However I think he could do well. That being said Moyes was a genius and I think if Martinez is to stay we will need to accept his flaws- one of which I think is transfer market- at least compared to Moyes.

he's had some good signing and some poor signings. However good thing for us is most of the poor ones were frees or small 1m-2m fees (alcaraz, barry, atsu is a loan) and the ones we spent significant money on worked out bar kone (Rom, McCarthy, Besic). Not fantastic in the market but not as bad as some think. Bar Atsu the loans have been good (atsu even looks good in patches) my issue is why we didn't make the same use of it this season as last. Also like you mentioned he's made some good youth signings like Henen and galloway

 

[marty mcfly]

Nah, it's cos the irish were quite willing to sell each other out for an extra cow.

Starvation will do that

Who is making that assessment?

Do you think other teams around us feel similarly about their teams though? Feels like to me this season the quality of all of the mid-level teams has risen dramatically.

Just throwing it out there, but is there really any easy games now?

I'm pretty confident we haven't had many sides better than this.

Yes, sunderland, villa, west brom, burnley, leicester, qpr and hull.

Oh and everton.

Who is making that assessment?

The vast majority of Evertonians.

Oh i forgot that marvelous team of Farrelly and Williamson was better than this
