Not a chance. Too nice, all this “so, so happy” bollocks. Absolute rubbish.

You've written him off already?  :-\

I hope now he realises we don’t have defenders to play out from the back, especially vs top 2 team in the league.

You would think the penny would drop after the capitulation against Leicester wouldn't you?  But no, Emery decides he knows better.  Really am running out of patience with this manager and his stubborness.  Three defeats on the spin, all 100% on him

I’m not running out of patience - that’d be fucking ridiculous. He needs to improve, but fucking hell he’s only been in since November.

Difficult to see who we can sign in the summer that can lift us 3-4 places.

Someone like Kamara is pretty much the exception.

Seems plenty are happy to cash in on Emi now but replacing world class keepers isn't an easy thing to do and will take a significant amount of the budget which feels a bit needless.

Nyland and Olsen have been regulars for their national teams over last 5-6 years and we've seen how poor they are generally in comparison to Martinez.

One thing we don't want to be seeing in six months, Konsa-Mings yet again as the CB combination.

You have to love how the defeat against Man City is 0% them having a squad that cost £1bn coached by the world's most successful manager.

I’m stunned that anyone could write off a manager who has proven across his career to be successful. This isn’t Steven Gerrard or even Dean Smith. This is a manager who has actually won things. It’s not going to change this quickly.

Calling out Martinez for going up for a corner when we’re losing and we had gone beyond the allotted injury time is weird.

“I don’t like it. I told him that,” Emery said.

“Maybe [goalkeepers] can score in the history one or two times, there’s more goals scored against you.

“I’ve never told my goalkeeper to go up in the 92nd minute.

“I don’t know the data but maybe one time out of 100 they will score.”

Martinez was also booked for timewasting, prompting Emery to add that his side had “wasted more time than I want.”

Can see why he wants to sell him tbh. Maybe controversial but see it now.

We'll see. You don't replace Emi with an Olsen standard keeper, that's for sure.

We won't be moving up 3-4 places anytime soon if that happens.

How do you know he wants to sell him? Because that's what the clickbait's saying?
