Good move, wish him all the best but he shouldn't come back this time!

 

Stupid move by the club. If this herbert we got from Norway is never going to be played, then Aaron Martin is needed here. He is 4th choice CB, after Yoshida, Fonte and Hoovield. Letting him go on loan indicates Norway-bloke is considered 4th choice and Martin 5th.

I don't get it.

actually, you've got it right there.

Haha, my thoughts exactly.

 

We've got plenty of cover in defence; I don't know about you but I'd put Spider or Cork in defence before Martin.

 

Edit: or play 3 at the back, and pack the midfield.

I was in the Coventry end at Bournemouth tonight. He looked half decent. Didn't realise Seaborne was playing for Bournemouth? Or didn't he?

 

He was playing according to the BBC!

 

Decent start for Martin though - a clean sheet

Yup, complete rubbish. The fact that NC replaced Adkins with what seems like the first available and suitable candidate makes TheDellDays look like a complete knob.

 

As if He needed any help with this.

Cork was his usual stellar self in the right back position for Sissoko's goal on Sunday. I haven't seen him have anything resembling a passable match for us at right back, he may as well be up front as his best position by far is midfield.

 

I was talking to a Palace fan on the train on Monday and he was decidedly unimpressed with Martin, same thing we saw in League One, no passing game at all and happy to plant it into the stands - it was fine when he was 21 in League One, not so great for a top 6 Championship side two years later. Coventry might at least give him the chance, confidence and time to find a teammate with a pass. I don't think he's lacking much with his positioning or defensive ability, but as Alex Pearce is now proving in the Prem, just being a solid clearance machine doesn't cut it in the top flight.
