Russell Martin

Probably an element of that to it.

A couple of trophy laden seasons in Scotland and then come back to a mid-table ish Prem side with reputation repaired/enhanced.

The flaw in his reasoning is that it requires a basic ability to manage

Yes. Yes it does.

 

[Nottinghillbilly]

The flaw in his reasoning is that it requires a basic ability to manage

His man management is schoolboy level inept (see Whitts, Oba, Pato, Jay et al)

His strategic and in-game management is worse than inept and focused purely on PR spin:

:- how can I set-up a team to look as close to Pepball, and build upon my polished PR presence to elevate my CV as far as possible - at the massive expense of the performance and results of whichever team I'm lucky enough to be managing.

Proper horrible fella, which most sane fans spotted at the very outset when he dropped and stripped Piroe of his #9 jersey, the stupid twat

Just had a look at his stats on wikipedia, out of curiosity.

He's managed 260 games so far in his career and in those 260 games his teams, despite often averaging 60-70% possession, have somehow conceded a total of 371 goals (an average of 1.4 goals per game), with an overall goal difference of just +9.

So "Martinball" and his way of "dominating the ball", results in his teams scoring just 1 more goal than the opposition every 29 games on average

I'm presuming his ego won't let him change, no matter what

 

[Rhydian]

Wonder where he could even go after Rangers? Seems an incredible risk for any club in British football to take on.

 

[Dewi1jack]

Our Eastern cousins.
They just may believe he could do the doube against us
Maybe even the doube double...

If they ever get back to the Championship and stay 2 seasons that is

He’ll get another championship club. Owners will see he got Southampton promoted on paper and take a shot of him being able to do it again.

 

[Swansea93]

Never know he might blag his way to the Wrexham job

 

[Dillwyn the Dog]

I'm presuming his ego won't let him change, no matter what

He’s a proper malignant narcissist

 

[Dillwyn the Dog]

Never know he might blag his way to the Wrexham job

Oh that would be pure heaven. If Cardiff were playing at our elevated level I’d pray him to go there

Potter doing his best to get sacked before Martin.

“56 min: Graham Potter bites his nails nervously as more fans make towards the out-door, steam pouring out of their lugs.”

 

[Swansea93]

West Ham have looked awful, wonder where Potter will head next, back to Sweden.
