To be fair to bobby he has a decent philosophy and good attacking methods, with that team and in that league it might actually work.

You are focusing on one player instead of the absolute and complete failings of the manager, which I find very, very strange Joey.
The same player kept us in games in his time at Everton.
Shall we list all of Martinez's failings or would we be here all night?
Timmy played like a coward..........eyes shut - stuck on his line like glue , and oh his star jumps... well past his best.....Bobby took Howard aside early on and told him to play like Gigi Buffon. It should in no way reflect on Bobby that Howard wasn't capable of playing like Buffon. The way Bobby wanted to play relied on Tim being Buffon, Kone being Messi, Barry being Pirlo, Alcaraz being Maldini etc etc The failings of that time are on them not being good enough and not on Bobby.
Apparently
yet undroppable I suspect RM had no say in it..........
what a strange fixation you have with Howard mate, quite amusing
Actual football on a pitch, frendo.
As I've told you before and you've ignored it.
Have you ever set foot on a pitch, in a game? Highly doubt it.

As excuses go for El Failure this is right up there with the most desperate: it was all Tim Howard's fault and and he couldn't be dropped by his own manager because he wasn't allowed to pick his own team.
Just lollollol

I can guarantee I was a better footballer than you. It was said that I played a bit like Glenn Hoddle. Great range of passes, chiming in with the odd fantastic volleyed goal.
Dave, you would have been too busy telling your manager and the ref where they were going wrong.

Joel should have replaced Howard earlier than he did. Howard was a great servant, but he went down the toilet, and at one of the few Martinez era matches I did see, he was horrible. I think it was Defoe who was able to score with ease because Howard was so far out to the right. Criiiiiinge. I mean, Joel was gash at first but after he had time to settle into the side, he did improve as a goalie. More vocal too. I'm still mad that he left and not that giant Dutch blert, but then Joel's wanted out for ages anyway so it was inevitable.
Maybe Howard misheard it and thought he said 'play like a buffoon'.Bobby took Howard aside early on and told him to play like Gigi Buffon. It should in no way reflect on Bobby that Howard wasn't capable of playing like Buffon. The way Bobby wanted to play relied on Tim being Buffon, Kone being Messi, Barry being Pirlo, Alcaraz being Maldini etc etc The failings of that time are on them not being good enough and not on Bobby.

Joey, it wasn't Howard's fault. He was past it and was a liability at times but its hardly his fault if the manager keeps selecting him to play is it? Even if all our problems at the time were all down to somthing as simple as just the keeper alone (and its not close to being true) it's still on Martinez for selecting him.
