KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Roberto Martinez is not our new Manager

It could be to announce a new wiga. manager

Maybe they have changed their pie supplier for the new season. That would be BIG news in Wigan.

Who says?

Well he has said he will be announcing his decision on Tuesday at least, there is little point in reading rumors etc till then as we find out then and only then 100%.
Regards reasons for him possibly not taking it I can see it being due to Van Gaal if he is taking over as director of football.
He likes to be top dog and has fell out with people everywhere he has been. He is strong headed and very old school. The players certainly would not know what hit them if he was in charge. I think he would want Martinez out of the way and want to be manager himself. I do not think in that role of director of football he would get along with the likes of Martinez and Rafa with these guys also wanting transfers control etc.

Aren't you just the eternal optimist?

It seems the DoF role is causing problems

Your all gonna hate me, and to be honest I don't know why I have u-turned but I kind of just want Martinez to get the job.
If he does I also want it to be with full control.
If it all goes wrong you can hold me personally responsible.................................

its bound to go wrong..van gaal rumoured wanted the managers job, of course he will clash with any manger we do get. he's got that difficult dutch head on him too.

Martinez were u always a lfc supporter or a Wigan fan, cause ur the one who really the wigan man at lfc?

I think Van Gaal would be a bad move in this capacity. He doesnt work well with others. It could blow up in their faces to be honest.
Im all for giving Martinez the chance but he would be a fool to take it if we have DoF that has too much control or as with Van Gaal is desperate to take control.
