Martin didn't have a great game last night, but neither did Fonte in all honesty. Martin was constantly dragged out of position, Cork had a go at him a couple of times as he had to leave his man and drop into the line. It's something that happens far too often with Martin. Also his passing/decision making is terrible. Constantly hitting weak passes or passing to men being closed down, putting the team under pressure. This was noticeable with Fox, he kept selling him short or passing to him when he had a man closing resluting in Fox having to continuously hoof the ball long.

Think you make a very good point here Joey B about Martin's performance last night and also an area
in his game that needs improving.He did put Foxy under unnecessary pressure several times last
night. It was clear for everyone to see Fox had words with Martin to that effect.
He sold him short several times.

No doubt Martin did well last night with the aerial battle using his height advantage.
However on the ground his footwork and passing was left lacking.
Will come with time but he can't afford to expose team mates whilst he learns.
 
Martin was using his left foot alot last night, when he is right footed - you wonder why his passing was weak at times?

Yeah as you said his passing was weak with his right foot.

Always makes the case to play a naturally left footed player in the left sided position.

Requires lots of practice to be good with both feet

He made most of his passes with his right foot. He's never been a ball player. Also Miller won his fair share of balls against him in the air, he doesn't position himself well enough to get a jump on his opponent. Jaidi does this well, his opponent can't get off the floor so he wins every header.
 
just got backn from the match (live a long way away) but following recent criticism of AM I paid particular attention to him. I thought he played particularly well and think that as a young lad he has a bright future espescially if he can keep a regular place in a winning team...incidentally I felt that there are promissing signs that we are going to restore our early season form although, I haven't had inclination to reat all the threads, agree with Beddy that mid-field need to shoot more often

I'll open a book that you will be on Billy Sharps case if he doesn't score in the first two games!
