Martinez figures very flattering. Took over the best team we had. Made some good signings that window but quickly came to light how poor a manager he actually was. The last 5-6 years have truly been depressing.

I’ve heard stories from within the club that Michael Keane is the best finisher at the club and Iwobi is the most skilful.
Some people need to go to specsavers.

The manager isn't our biggest issue it's the squad, recruitment and the mess at board level. But I'm not convinced he will ever build us anything either his tactics are very limited and one dimensional, cross cross cross or counter attacks and he is very negative and stubborn. Also I fail to see a win in our next three or four so as much as I want stability I can't see him lasting. The issue is Moshiri appointing someone he knew a large section of the fanbase will never take to and that we had limited budget this past summer, it was always asking for trouble.
do you honestly think most want Benitez out primarily because he's a kopite? honestly?
Give me Brendan Rodgers (yuck) over Rafael in the morning.
It's because he's crap.
Not sure this Denmark manager is particularly stellar from what I’ve seen of his record. Got sacked after less than a season after succeeding Tuchel at Mainz apparently.
Primarily? No. But given the outrage from the majority before he was appointed & the criticism he gets since he’s been appointed, I’d say the fact he’s an ex RS is a big part of it, yes. Any other manager, the fan base would be a lot more understanding of the injury crisis.
I don't think it was that bad a hand.
He's had bad luck with injuries.
He's unfortunate that there was no effort to replace Seamus and injuries really hit hard
but
Pickford, Mina, Godfrey, Digne, Allan, Doucoure, Richarlison, DCL, Delph, Keane is even good with the right management, and he added Gray and Townsend, then there's the likes of Gordon and Ancelotti got a tune out of Davies and Gomes at times last season. There's a team of alright players, not gonna win you any silverware but shouldn't be winless for two straight months.
I disagree, Nuno, after being winless in 2 months, getting booted out of the LC by QPR and overseeing the club folding shamefully against Villa and watford would face all the criticism. In fact there probably wouldn't be this weird Rafael defense that we're seeing.
ha, man, so were the 90's! at least Royle won us the cup!

I actually think it’s the opposite - he gets more of a free pass because too many are ready to play the sympathy card ‘look at you lot harassing the poor kopite. It’s not his fault, leave him alone’
yea, no, not a fan of hiring a manager based off good international performances. I'd swerve him big time.
