I said it a while back, my crystal balls said that Martinez was going to be our next manager. Simply because he ticks all of PC-FSG's boxes (maybe not all of ours though) and he talks a very, very, very good game.
I don't think FSG would be so stupid to ignore credentials and success simply because a manager may speak well. But I said it before and I'll say it again, if anybody out of those three, Rafa, AVB and Martinez, Martinez has the capability of winning them over with a wink and a chat.
I don't think FSG really care about what the manager has won and where he has managed, as long as the bloke says yes to all there questions, shuts up and does his job, they're gonna be in the frame for FSG.
- Rafa is the most proven on the biggest stage, league and in Europe.
- Villas Boas is proven in Europe and the league with Porto, young. I'd be inclined to give this man the job.
- Martinez is proven to keep little Wigan up year after year and managed Swansea in League 1.
I ain't being snobby, Martinez is a nice guy, maybe to nice! But Rafa and Villas Boas should stand at the top of FSG's list and if they don't want Rafa, then Villas Boas is numero uno!
But I don't think FSG really care about the fans now, they did, until Kenny wasn't getting the results, they sacked him after he took it to them, nothing surprises me with them now.
They obviously don't want Rafa, because they will listen to the outsiders advising them, as they did removing Kenny and Comolli. And you just know Henry fancies the b*llocks of Martinez, but it would also go against a large chunk of fans also....if Martinez comes, we know exactly what FSG are up to and where they want to go.
The whole thing is turning into a farce, early it may be. But guys, they have 2 major candidates not even at a club, who they could get tomorrow, they both appear to be the best options also.
This tells me, they want Martinez.....bit more work to do for Martinez, being at Wigan n all
