    So he downed tools as I highlighted. Weird decisions, setup and subs. To follow on from @Tobes, that could point to losing the dressing room(as it’s believed Martinez did)

    No player is going to come out and dish the dirt on a manager, could lead to his replacement thinking you are a problem at the club.

    That's because Manchester is a big city with only one team. City have the city to themselves. Chelsea share London with a dozen other teams and Bournemouth arn't a very big town.



    And before any wise guy tries to claim there are two teams in Manchester, I want to point out that I don't consider Bolton to be part of Manchester.

    Whenever there's a dressing room fallout, something gets leaked from somebody. Can't find anything on this one - although I only did one google search <laugh>

    Strange that some seem to want it to be that the players gave up on him, is that because another reason for the poor displays could be that he was tactically inept.

    Is this why Southampton tried to get relegated from the PL, punishment for stealing players.

    I agree.
    The league needs its smaller clubs as much as the big ones. They help generate the income from TV and should get a fair whack from it.
    Individual matches are still highly competitive even if the overall outcome of the league is more predictable. I don't want a league where we only have a handful of decent games and the rest are just routine.

    I guess the next three seasons will show if that’s the case. I believe he downed tools and wanted the bigger job(more to do or bigger profile club, you decide)

    2004 = 3rd (promoted)
    2005 = 11th
    2006 = 11th
    2007 = 16th (relegated)

    2011 = 1st
    2012 = 1st
    2013 = 2nd

    I make that an average of 5.9. Including the 1st season at Mainz where he took over late and including the high finishing positions after taking Mainz up.

    Sorry you can't count the 14th finish at Mainz when he was only there for a handful of games that first season. His average is 5.4 rounded down to 5th. Which is what I said having done exactly what you did.

    his ego must be badly bruised if he needs to make up this **** for his performance.

    I assume it explains his cry baby years too

    Most productive thing I've done today, thank you very much!

    Zero context, but just basic stats to prove Tobes wrong
