Remind me, what has he actually done right? (this season)
-
That's a couple of times now where he's misjudged the bounce of the ball. and it's cost us a goal.
-
I include their second in the charges against Martin. A totally unmarked winger runs onto a lofted through ball. Martin cannot organise a defence.
-
Include me in.

A bloke was selling them at two for one after the game. At least you could cut them in half and make two decent scarves out of them.

Saints 2-3 Liverpool - Match Thread

He played the ‘basic underarm pass’ perfectly. The point is that he should never have made that pass. What the hell was Fernandes supposed to do with it? He was on the edge of our crowded area facing his own goal and with three or four opponents up his backside. He did the only thing possible and picked out Flynn Downes who then panicked and fluffed his clearance. He is probably most responsible for that goal but it was the system that spawned it. As a general principle the further the ball is from your own goal the fewer chances you’re going to concede. As for their second goal no matter how many times I watch it I cannot work out what McCarthy was thinking. KWP should have marked Salah better but closing down opposing wingers is not allowed in Martin’s playbook. -
He always has a mistake in him.

No, because that is the way that they have been trained. -

The ball went exactly where it was supposed to. And that’s the problem. That pass should never have been made. -

But throwing the ball out like that is a direct consequence of what he has been told and trained to do. -
Eh? I guess English is not your first language.

But it had everything to do with how we got there. -
I’m pissed off because of the idiotic way that we’re playing.

It’s a depressing thought that Martin might still be in charge next season in the Championship. "If I hadn't seen such riches, I could live with being poor"
-
They have been winning despite it.

We’ve already got the daft prick. Oh sorry… -

But it would still be as ineffective as always. It’s not a question of extremes. It doesn’t have to be either piss about at the back or hoof it long but some desire to get at the opposition goal would be welcome. Let’s call it ’attack’. Whatever the conditions we can be assured that Liverpool will handle them better than we do. -
Nah. Not enough decrepit white haired old men.

What more incentive does the board need?

We’d have good possession providing we didn’t score.
