Bit disappointed to hear Kone is a target. Would have thought at this stage what we need is quality over quantity. Personally I would prefer our budget spent almost entirely on a fantastic striker with a few loans/freebies/rejects coming in than us buying three or four decent players. Nonetheless, for some reason I trust Martinez. Interesting few weeks ahead..
annoys me. He is being given the chance of playing in the premiership for a top six club and hes moaning about money.
we don't want money players. Players that move for money over success are not needed at Everton

To allay any fears people are having that Kone would mean Jelavic departure.
Well, I remember Martinez mentioning something so I went back to find the interview. Martinez fan interview with Wigan fan forum:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBL1ML2iOfk
Fan: "Will it be easy to keep everyone happy when we play with predominantly one striker?"
Martinez: "Well... we play with three strikers, you know. People think of one striker but we play with three. What's important is to have as strong a squad as we can have. Being happy for me, that's easy, as people train, people play and football makes the decision; whoever train and plays well, plays. I'd rather have extra numbers than be weak. We had 24 players available for the Stoke game, all fit and fighting to be available. I had my problems, which was having to select 18 players out of the 24. That's magnificent."
So a) he won't sell him if he doesn't play because he definitely likes a squad, and b) he may well play him because the traditional 1-up-top system may not be the default choice from now on.

listening to Martinez interviews he reminds me of david brent.. management talk
'' oh we will do this it will do that, its important to have a good team and build.. we must add to the squad to improve '' Really? are you sure
'' we must score to win '' type of lines!

Also this from Wigan forum not too long ago. I mean it's not much in and of itself, but in context could mean that he's more likely to stay in North West.
That particular fan used it as evidence to suggest he wouldn't leave Wigan, but given the distances between Wigan and Liverpool that's unlikely - but Wigan and Newcastle? Much more likely.
