Yet again the chosen one leads us to another defeat. Another toothless display, with the genius spaniard spending the whole game stood in the technical area, looking absolutlely terrified, hoping that we somehow manage to scrape a draw to enable him and the club to carry on the pretence that he is a manager who can achieve something, anything at all for us.
Sadly, he cannot. He is without doubt the worst premier league manager we have had. His selections and substitutions at times are baffling to say the least.
His excuses are lamentable. Last week it was the pitch and referee. This week it will be just the referee. His actual excuse for today is given below in full
To quote from the above link – “I don’t think there was any contact and, if there was, it was not enough for it to be a penalty.
“The referee was only five yards away but at the moment we are not getting the luck with decisions.
“Our player is trying to clear the ball and I would say their player should have been given a yellow card.”
Yet he does not mention the fact that Birmingham hit the bar early on, and should have scored, and Kirkland made a fantastic goal line save to keep us in it, along with Brambles goal line scrambled clearance. It could very well have been 3-0.
To have a player like Nzogbia in your team and play him on the wrong wing to prove his ‘tactical genius’ is downright pathetic. To substitute him because he has dared to criticise our predicament is even more purile from the Messiah that some of you consider Roberto Martinez to be.
The facts speak for themselves, his signings are not good enough, and some may never get the chance to prove they are due to leaving them on the bench.
The ‘legends’ midfield today shows him up for what he is. Not very bright.
Thomas – tough tackler, tackles, and does some tackling
Diame – does some tackles, not as many as Thomas
Scharner – does some tackles, maybe a few more than Diame, but is in fact a centre half
Nzogbia – a very good RIGHT winger, playing on the left wing, confused, wanting away from the madness.
McArthy – a decent enough prospect, does some tackling, interceptions etc.
Gomez (sub) – pathetic. All round pathetic. Nothing at all to offer, except some spanish company for the illustrious Roberto at the club, maybe sharing bottle of red now and again discussing the future and building a team around him.
Does this midfield ever create anything apart from the odd goal (Diame)? These lot behind Rodellga, who is lighter weight than Barry McGuigan, up front by himself will ensure that there is lots of storm and bluster (except Gomez) in the middle, but not much in the way of creativity.
I would go on to say that i do not believe we will win another premier league game under Roberto Martinez. How can international Premier League players look up to a man who never played at the top level, or managed at the top level prior to this disastrous appointment, and listen to a word he says – he signed Gomez and Scotland, the whole squad must still be wondering why.
I shall not post another thread (no doubt gaining the plaudits from the Superfans) on here regarding Martinez, until he has been sacked or resigns. This i trust will not be long.
Until then, fair play to all of you who hang on to Roberto, dreaming of a glory that he cannot possibly deliver. Maybe we will stay up, maybe not. But the facts speak for themselves. Roberto Martinez is Wigans worst Premier League Manager, and Jason Scotland is Wigans worst ever Premier League No 9.
It’s so sad but so obvious. The Peter Principle says that so may people are promoted beyond the level of their competence. This tragically is the case with RM. We don’t have the worst players but the spiritless, directionless rubbish we have seen this season is unacceptable and is clearly linked to the fact that RM didn’t play at the highest level, never won a sausage and never played under a manager with any real cred. Leadership is hard to measure but RM isn’t a natural leader at the gighest level. It’s a pity. Wish he was.

And it’s taken so long to realise that?
Everyone knew about his player record when he got the job but it didn’t stop the street parties and bold predictions.
When first appointed manager, he may have had a clue. But the longer he is in the job, the worse he gets.
His substitutions just leave you scratching your head.
His formation leaves youbewildered.
Why on earth would you spend £3m on a striker to help save us from relegation then leave him out the team?
I cant get my head round what the managers trying to achieve. :?

ABOSULTELY SPOT ON ……..

Yes, so did I, that last comment’s ridiculous. N’Zogbia has been outstanding for most of the season, under Bruce he did nothing apart from a goal at Sunderland and many of us (myself included), we wondering what we had paid £6m for.
Kirkland made a fantastic goal line save to keep us in it, along with Brambles goal line scrambled clearance.
great defending that, all down to good coaching.
