Holmesy Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 If it’s Martinez I’ll get behind him. He’s 100 times the manager Bruce is. Given some of the names mentioned, it would be underwhelming but look where we are in the league and look at our squad! Maybe the top guys don’t want to come just yet. Personally, I think it’s likely just people lumping on Martinez because Jones has said he’s staying regardless and they’re putting 2+2 together.

Strawberry Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Sky Bet and couple of others has Unai Emery as odds on favorite and no one is commented about it. Emery could thick lots of boxes and he could be the one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackyboy Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Please, not Martinez. He has a poor track record apart from his time with Belgium. That was helped in no small way by having some of the world's top players at his disposal, DeBruyne, Hazard,Lukaku etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigValley Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Sometimes It is to mutch i think. I am a happy man anyway. Ashley gone and Bruce is gone. This for me is enough. IF Favre, Potter, Martinez or some Else, they will get my Howay. The owners have told many times this will take time. I Just se forward some years and i am happy what ever happens.

Expand Good question actually, I just hope any appointment is a manger good enough to keep us up this season and then have us pushing up the table over the next couple of years and I don’t think Martinez will achieve either of those. Out of all the names linked I have no issue giving anyone a go other than him and Lampard. That’s not to say I won’t get behind them I just have massive concerns about both.
