Martinez Sentiment Poll: In or Out

[Titus Bramble]

Got a bit hairy around Christmas time mate

You don't get relegated being 6 points clear of relegation at Christmas.

Yeah but some of the quotes of "can't see us winning another game" or "Martinez out" on here it was looking quite bleak for a time

After Burnley beat City we were 3 points clear of the relegation zone in March. It wasn't never in doubt.

I've been checking the bottom three results since after we beat west ham at home,Christ the QPR home win was like a 6 pointer

And then we beat Newcastle in the same round of fixtures, went back to 6 points clear and haven't looked back since.

Confidence was as low as I can ever remember it, doesn't mean we were in danger though.

moyes finished 17th in his second season.

And by simply adding Marcus Bent and Tim Cahill, turned us into Champions League qualifiers.

As anyone who watched us under Kendalls early days knows, things can turn around quickly and unexpectedly.

A Tim Cahill type player is exactly what we are missing. Some right little pain in the ass that the opposition need to keep looking over their shoulder for, because they never know where he's going to pop up next. He'd hassle opponents, score goals, moan at the Ref, and throw himself right into the mix. Damn I miss the wee guy.

Nah.

Barkley will become this if he's allowed to. But no point having an 'Arteta type' when you have a Manager who stifles individual creativity and insists that players ping pong the ball from one to the other. But it doesn't have to be a choice of one type or the other, and I trust that Martinez will get things right in the Summer and next Season.

 

[Cels]

Nah.

Can't argue with that

Ross will never be the arteta type

I'm not a Moyes fan. Says a lot though when Martinez can't even consistently achieve that.

technically if we manage 9th this year, with getting 5th last year.. it gives Martinez an average of a 7th place finish during his time here.....
