Guest firetotheworks Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Should be a pet hate that, people telling fans that they're wrong about their own club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wacko Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 That's it. I'm going to self immolate outside The Strawberry if this cunt's still here in June. Does this not count as one of those drink-my-own-piss promises? Just asking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudil Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 I'm sure the point's been made on here before but Martinez has inherited an absolutely fantastic spine and foundation that was laid by Moyes, particularly defensively. This has become very overplayed like. Look at Everton's team this season. No one outside the back 5 was a regular(for a few years) under Moyes, no one. The back 5 - yeah sure they are a good unit. 2 decent CB's and GK with Jags, Distan and Howard and two quality attacking full backs. So a decent foundation there for sure. Not a "fantastic spine" though. Without some very, very shrewd loan-signings and promotion of Barkley by Martinez ,Moyes' squad was looking pretty fucking shit after the sale of Fellaini.

Wullie Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Ben Arfa would be persona non grata under Moyes just as much as he is now imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Flash Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Not sure Moyes is entertaining enough for The Flasher tbh. That's the absolute number 1 requirement for me these days, even before actually winning games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, 'spine' is probably the wrong term for it. I'd say the defensive foundations he laid and the legacy he left, particularly in terms of attitude, were fantastic and about as good as Martinez could have inherited. I think that players in that back 5 will orchestrate a lot of the on-field defensive stuff. They've got some proper leaders back there as well as defenders.

Curtained Wasp Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 That's it. I'm going to self immolate outside The Strawberry if this c***'s still here in June.

TRon Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Would snap my own hands off for Moyes, to be honest. He's a better manager than Martinez, in my book, who's still got a lot to prove. I remember hearing those arguments against Brendan Rodgers a couple of seasons back. That Liverpool thread would be worth a re-visit from the first post to the last.

Dr Venkman Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 I fucking hate Pardew, like.
