I'm not advocating Martin's sacking because of Arsenal. I am advocating sacking him because he is wedded to a way of playing that apart from needless high risk possession in our own half inhibits our chances of winning because it gifts the opposition easy goal scoring chances. The players are in a possession straitjacket and sometimes we don't even get out of our own penalty area. It's not a tweak that is needed it has to change to a high tempo safety first, pressing the life out of the opposition and fast breakaways, the only way the underdog can survive. One of Onuachu's strengths which appears in many of his goals is to angle and time his runs to get across defenders and finish close in in the goal area with either head or feet. We need to put the ball in there for him and the other strikers. that isn't going to happen often enough playing Martin's way. If the club gave him the choice of ditching the play out from the back and going more direct as we did in the play offs that would be a start otherwise it's time to part company. We don't need another financial crisis so relegation needs to be avoided.

If the gave him the choice what option do you think he would choose?..... I wonder 🤔
