Is Martin building a reputation for himself 07:22 - Apr 27 with 1059 viewsguthrieintherain

Halfway up the league but starting to play some good football.
I am looking forward to next season

So my question is will clubs with bigger resources be thinking about him like we did with MK.

Plays good football in patches, yes,but is overall game management is poor,can't change things tactically when we in front or behind just carries on same way,as last night game shows at 3 nil up should have seen game out and changed system,the game was won or should have been after 60nidd minutes 3 nil up,but he carried on with open expansive football taking risks when there was absolutely no need,he's got a lot to learn

Yes agree on last night Moore coming on and Cabango getting injured changed the game.

Yes the ref was poor they had 6 yellows.
But should have been at least 1 if not 2 reds.

But he is right in his presser lack of height is killing us.

In hindsight Bennet should of been on the bench and could of slotted in for Ben.

He should have change system all together and seen game out,he's naive to say the least,,as for saying lack of height we have height at the club if he chooses not to select in match day squad it's up to him but should br seeing out 3 goal advantages with 20 odd minutes left is scandalous, all he had do was tighten up change system and hit them in counter,but instead he carried on playing risky football.

"All he had to do"
In fairness, Bournemouth had some aerial power that most teams would have struggled to cope with.
I was surprised when Cabango went down the second time and I looked at the list of subs to see no defenders in there.
That said, even with Bennet and Burns on, we would have struggled to cope the last 20 plus minutes.
At the end of the day, the game was changed because of what the ref and the other officials didn't do.
Lowe, Moore and the player who jumped into the stand ( don't think he hit the fan but could have caused mayhem doing what he did ) should all have had reds.
Also the blatant push on Downes prior to their equalizer was shocking.
If those things had been the other way round the furore from Parker and his team would have known no bounds.
You need a bit of everything to get promotion, including guile, which Bournemouth have in abundance

He hasn’t got the back up on the bench which was definitely evident last night again.

Sorry but you are just trying to live up to your username now.
If you didn't think the Swans three goals and a lot of their other play in the first 60 minutes ( plus to be fair some of Bmuff's in the first hour ) wasn't brilliant then not sure what game you were watching ?

If he leans into the "bad owners taking all the money, that's why we're not winning" narrative then anything is possible, I suppose. Potter moved on quickly after some flashy performances on TV but he also had Ostersunds European adventuring on his CV.

I would agree to an extent but where waas Burns?
Also it was the use of what he had available that let him doen

As has been much discussed on this forum since last night putting Korey smith at right back didnt work when it would have been betterto switch christie there and put Joseph on the wing.Ogebeta was nt used,
We do suffer from a lack of strengtrh in depth...but Bennet would certainly have handeld Moores heigtt though Moores second goal could have been scored by any vertically challenged person.

The 3 goals were excellent of course, but there was very little football played in the second half. we couldn't even do the basic keep ball and pass it There was no shape and no quality

He could have easily gone to a four at back and 5 in midfield and frustrated them at 3 nil but no he still took risks playing around from keeper making mistakes,absolutely no need when game was in bag at 3 nil..criminal management

I agree with you cannot understand the under utilisation of Burns and no Bennett on the bench ?
May have made the difference last night after losing Cabango

Agree the last 25 - 30 minutes after we lost Cabango was harum scarum.
Both sides played little football.
Bournemouth played route one and were nasty as well.
We should have kept it calm but panicked at times.
Some of our passing, which is what we are building the basics of our team on, was poor in the latter stages, allowing them to bombard us.

Need to keep our front two.
Can't see it though as probably £30 - £35 million in fees between the two.
Plus Downes possibly.
Any offers for Grimes you know of ?
Please !
