No here we go... the fact Martin missed an absolute sitter goes unnoticed. If Russell or wieman did it you would be complaining but because it's our beloved wardrobe it's ok.

"meh" Had an ok game, missed a sitter. it happens. Pretty hard to extrapolate his contribution over this entire season from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ball was played just behind him (is how it seemed on viewing last night) and he couldn't adjust quick enough. He had one tricky chance as did Nuge and that was about it.

I am only making a point about it because he gets away with criticism from you lot but if it's Blackman Russell or wiemann then it gets its own thread.

I wasn't the one bandying the best striker in the Championship stats about, Sky were. He missed one chance. Weimann and Russell missed how many?

For me, the positive from the situation is that it shows that Vydra and Martin have an understanding and can obviously play off each other. Over the season therefore they are more than likely to score far more than they miss which only benefits DCFC. Far more important than any personal vendetta.

Or just maybe the players who have scored the higest number of goals each season [over the last 2 or 3 seasons]have not been in the league for the last 2 or 3 seasons.

They gone to the Prem? Or League 1? How many others are you trying to put in front of Martin in the stats? He's a good striker but we won't get the best out of him or any striker either if we don't support them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbobram Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 The fact that some of you are already slagging him off is a joke. Its one game out the season. Sort yourselves out. Same goes to the ones who think Davies (The one who has won promotion and played in the prem) is poor based on ONE game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 He won more free kicks than every centre forward who played for us last season put together i thought for the brief period they were on the pitch together him and Vydra looked very interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Ram Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Last night was a classic example of how not to use Chris Martin. Making Martin chase punts is like using Warwick Davies as a target man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie20 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 What sort of fan gloats when one of their teams' players misses a chance or makes a mistake which leads to conceding a goal? Weird having a mindset which involves wanting someone who plays for YOUR team to fail so that in some strange way it might convince others that maybe you were right and they were wrong.

Adslegend Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Martin was unlucky not to score and get get an assist last night. Great awareness from him to lay off Huddlestone with his chest in the first half. The ball through from Vydra did look like it was slightly behind him which means he has to readjust his body and unfortunately mis-hit the ball. Regardless of the finish it's good to see Martin still getting himself in dangerous positions and hopefully he and Vydra can link up more throughout the season and form a good partnership. It's a shame that fans have to try and twist stats/ performances to fit their narrative of a player being bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a major involvement in the first goal as well. Huddlestone barely played any of those raking forward passes he likes because Sunderland closed him down quickly all match. He was able to play the one he played for the goal because of Martin's awareness and control to quickly lay it off to him, which gave him time to get his head up and pick out Russell.
