So who do we want/expect/hope?

Martinez with someone like Van Gaal I'd be ok with. Martinez on his own and I'd be a bit unhappy but I don't understand why people get all depressed based on what motor mouth Dave Whelan says. Even if Martinez is appointed then wait and see how we get on before reaching for the razor blades.

That kind of common sense non doommongering post won't get you many likes

Besides my one and prob oncys
 
I am not convinced Martinez will be a failure. I am actually more worried about van gaal. I am just not happy that sacking King Kenny led to this Fucking bullshit. You just dont do that!
 
Whelan is the one who makes we wonder if it would be right to sign Martinez. His talk about "I don't want to lose him // he works 7 days a week, 12 hours à day, I promised him that I'd let him go bla bla bla".

It doesn't sound like he wants him to stay, it sounds like he's trying to sell us the idea how great he is.

Klopp or Rodgers for me.

Whelan's stance on the whole thing is defo weird.

He's been very open about it whereas other chairman would downplay/dismiss the link whether it's reality or not.

Yes, that's exactly what it sounds like.

The guy that could have fucked off last year but didn't.

The guy that kept Whelan's shitty little 'second-to-shite-rugby-league' team in the Premiership.

Of course he wants to fuck him off down the road.

Tony Stark or Bruce Lee for me.

Awesome as they are, I am not sure they are the 'leader of men' kinda guys we need. Especially Bruce Lee seems like more of a lone wolf.
I'd rather take Nick Fury, Thor, Darth Vader or Genghis Khan.

"Downing! Henderson! Emperor Henry is most displeased with your apparent lack of progress."
"We will double our efforts!!"

Bollocks, he's upping his price for compensation is all.

He knows he can't persuade him to stay, so he wants to get the most he can from us.

I don't blame him tbh.
 
'I cant support this club'
Is not an opinion.
I honestly think its one of the most staggering things ive read on here.
Has he not seen the man in a suit ffs?

It was a flippant, frustrated remark and one he obviously doesn't mean literally.

You of all people should know about such remarks Andy. Quit fucking hanging him out to dry here.
 
Martinez is the Downing of Managers.

Been around for years, and been entirely mediocre for 99% of that time, but he saved his career highlight for a 2 month spell right at the end of last season and hey fucking presto we are in need of someone for that role.

Let's face it if he gets the job, he'll come in, do an ok job, get knocked about a bit by supporters, and be replaced within 2 years.

BUT. Here's what I think; he won't get appointed anyway. These yanks know utterly fuck all about football, they'll know that themselves, so Martinez's only hope was that he interviews well, pays for that fucking starbucks the lizard is walking down the street with and the Yanks are so enamoured they offer him the job there and then. The fact he wasn't offered the job and it now seems they're coming to the UK to meet other candidates (AVB, Rodgers, whomever) means Martinez is in trouble. If you didn't get it first up Robbie, these other cunts are gonna blow you out of the water. He had his shot and blew it.

Back to the JJB for you chief. That's my take on it anyway.
 
Vlad!.... These circles are ever decreasing! Seriously this is getting ridiculous (If anyone doesn't understand this please go 15-20 pages back)

Martinez??? - Not good.
Van Gaal??? - Good
Villa Boas??? - Ummmm Dunno.

129 pages...

Pfft. I didnt hang him out to dry AT ALL. If you read all my posts to him and vice versa you will see that.
 
I thought you did a bit, but I was responding to the baying masses more so than you directly, so apologies that you took the brunt of it I suppose.

Steven Gerrard admits he would support Roberto Martinez if he is named Liverpool's new manager.

What he actually said was:

Asked about the prospect of Roberto Martinez taking over at Liverpool, Steven Gerrard said: "We'll have to wait and see. It's news for me. I am aware Roberto Martinez has been speaking to the club. If he is the manager, he has my support."

LOL. This is coming from the man that:
- wanted Alan fucking Curbishley to replace Houllier
- stopped playing for Rafa because of no 'arm around the shoulder' treatment
- didnt give a fuck under Hodgson
- ushered the king off the pitch at st james park and didn't give a fuck in the last few months of the season

Pinch of salt comes to mind.

Its ok. I dont mind. I know he doesnt mean it, thats why I kept telling him to log off and come back tomorrow. Even the post you quoted there, i thought it was clear I was fucking around from the last line...
Obviously not.
 
I'm not up to date with this thread considering the vast mount of posts but have they talked to Benitez?
Is Martinez getting the job?
How about Van Gaal?

No they didn't speak to Rafa, Martinez in the. Pound seats it seems and no news on LVG other than he prefers the manager role as opposed to Sporting Director.
