Roberto Martinez discussion

In fairness Gareth Barry is very important for how we set up our team, he's obviously not back up to full speed after his injury.

He turns 34 in a couple of months. How long are you expecting him to be an important part of our team? He's never been very fast and he has no creativity, but these are the facets that our team are crying out for. Barry is at the arse end of his career, and he will need replacing sooner rather than later if we want to go anywhere.
 
A concern I have, and I am still prepared to be patient, is that in getting in a Continental Manager ( which I agree with), I would have wanted more young quality gems from Spain, Sth America etc that, apart from my man Deulofeu who was brilliant, are nowhere to be seen.
If we are going to play average skilled Scottish , Irish and Welsh footballers to play a Spanish/Sth American style football we may as well bring back Moyes because we are kidding ourselves.
Good point this i was expecting a few more players like he brought to wigan.
He is still relatively young for a manager and hope he learns from this spell and gets us moving again, jan could make or break us a few decent buys could give us a lift .

I am prepared to be patient. I wouldn't hold my breath for January. I would hope next Summer with the money we will get from the TV rights for him to pull out a few beauts. Otherwise he will lose me.

Pretty sure the country he bought most from at Wigan was - Scotland.

To be honest, Bobby is only a "continental manager" inasmuch as he hails from Spain.

His entire managerial career has been spent in Wales, Wigan and England......and his playing career was mostly spent in the English lower leagues and Scotland.

So his managerial antecedents are not continental.

I agree. I guess the Deulofeu tease may just have been that..a tease. I give him until next summer to convince me then...
 
apart from everything in here being just wrong, I'm confused by the 'clipped wings' part. Please elaborate as to how Martinez has 'clipped the wings' of the two best full backs in the League, one of whom is as per usual at the top of the Fantasy League for Defenders and the other with three goals and an injury stretch this season all ready.



This makes NO SENSE whatsoever. Pretty sure this thing is a Troll. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. Danger. Danger.



Again, Shoehorning. Clipped Wings. Shoehorning. You know it seems sometimes people get an idea in there head and from there it becomes real. How can you possibly know what someone else is thinking or the process you have to get through to make a decision about anything? Decisions made internally may not make sense in relation to your perspective, but that only makes them incorrect to you. It's making a leap in judgement from idle speculation which has no merit for practical inspection, to a self confirmed fact, and only exists because you willed it into existence. Fascinating. Pienaar bit though - very true.



The one where he was coming back from injury and must be replaced because your Head Physio tells you you should take him off or it could be another six weeks out over the Christmas period? You don't understand it because you are not Manager of Everton Football Club.

Tim Howard has 'nearly' cost us 30 points? I can't even.



Yep. What a Stoopidhead.

You could manage a Football Team standing on your head!

Why is everything wrong if you have an opinion debate it.

The level of utter stupidity, and the rationalization by some on here that the ANY decision making process is such a straightforward one belies belief. I'm confounded as to how some of you manage to organise your fingers into a collective entity cohesive enough to aim them at the Keyboard and with enough perspicacity to do it in order.

May Your Wings forever be Clipped and Your Horns Forever Be Shoed.

Sack martinez now? Maybe its knee jerking. They are the champions we lost against.
