Kingman Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Stick Martinez on the same regurgitated crap list as Bruce, Moyes, Hughes, McCarthy, Allardyce, Pardew, Redknapp, Pulis et al have all won **** all over years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mykeyb Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Really surprised at the amount of posters who think this is a good idea based. While no one knows how this will turn out I would be a lot more positive if the new man wasn't taking over a completely unbalanced squad in the bottom half of the table with at least a little experience of building a cohesive team. Everything crossed this goes well 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveAV1 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Martinez was always praised to the heights by the press for dragging Wigan out of the mire at the last minute. Forgetting that he was the bloke who got them in the mire in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisvilla4 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Not sure about smith. We need a manager that can handle the size and expectation of villa we really are a giant of a club. Look how many have tried and failed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine his first press conference? Crazy Joe: “Before we get started, which one of you lot is James Nursey?” Nursey: “Uh... me...” Joe: “You’re a c***!” Brilliant! The football might be shit, but the pressers will be amazing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get the hate for Martinez tbh. Did a good job at Swansea, did a good job at Wigan, did a decent job at Everton and, for whatever it's worth, has done well with Belgium. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommo_b Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 1 hour ago, One For The Road said: True. But we are in a worse position as a club than derby with far higher expectations. This is a club so big that some people on this very forum think we can attract some of the worlds top managers and yet we are now after a man with no managerial experience. I knew we wouldn't be getting any of the silly names being mentioned (for which I was lambasted by some), but I did at least think we would hire an actual manager and not a potential one. I will be devastated if we hire Henry. And I will be thrilled if we get Henry. Pure winning pedigree. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 26 minutes ago, KMitch said: Seeing reports that we’re now after Martinez and not Henry... I’m 100% for this. I’m a huge supporter of his. He has turned us down before and I would expect him to do so again if we offered him the job. I wouldn't give him the chance to do that myself. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mourinho could sign for us and there would be some on here to find something to complain about. Sign a manager who plays attacking football, and he’ll get slated for defensive issues. Sign a manager who plays defensive football, and he’ll get slated for being boring. Sign a manager with a lot of experience and he’ll get slated for whatever his worst experience was. Sign an inexperienced manager, and he’ll get slated for that. Welcome to Villa Talk! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got Wigan relegated leaking a lot of goals which shit managers like Paul Jewell and Steve Bruce couldnt even achieve. Everton were going downhill under him including losing 4-0 to Liverpool and 3-0 to a woeful Sunderland team just before he got the boot and spent money on some crap 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
