He's barely played for a good reason....his attitude is bad. He thinks he's better than he is.

He thinks he's better than he is. Well he is certainly better than Kone who occupied his position for the first 4 months of the season. I'd certainly be sulking cos of that. On a more serious note, kev is another player on that long list of players that Martinez hasn't handled correctly or got them playing at their optimum level.

He's the most over-hyped player on the books. Got the ability but none of the other traits a professional sportsman needs to go with them. Thinks he should walk into the team. Irrespective of who the manager is he'll struggle to get consistent starts at Everton. If he had Lennons attitude he'd be a decent player and a regular starter.

Mirallas is is the biggest fraud at GP by a long way..get him out of our club. We stepped up when Geri came on, forcing United onto the back foot and making them take off their young full back. We had enough chances to win, and in the second half, well, maybe its too late for Martinez, but there were signs that we had got our mojo back. Its all about if this and if that, but we lost a close semi final against a team that has luckily found three very good young fast attackers, and a manager who by accident or design, realised that playing Rooney deeper gave his young attackers plenty of options to shine.
Whatever the future for OUR manager and some of OUR players, as supporters of a great football club, we pick our selves up, stay proud, don''t whinge, and move on. Heres to the next time.

what complete drivel, you will sit there and sycophanticly defend crap players who earn way more than their talent deserves, disgusting businessmen who have conned the fans over and over again, and a failing manager who everyone can see needs to go, and yet you have this bizarre hatred for Kev, I know you don't trust skill or flair, and we'd be lumbered with a team of naismiths if it were up to you, but in what sense at all is Kev a fraud, explain that accusation and back it up with some facts, or at least a reasonable argument that extends beyond 'he's a dodgy foreigner' or 'he tries to beat people' or even worse 'he missed a peno once', because unfortunately for you, his stats are decent, his performances are sometimes hit and miss but generally pretty good for a guy who cost 4 mill, but he's been used appallingly by a failure of a manager, and I wouldn't blame him for shouting that from the rooftops, but for the large part he appears to have got his head down, and looked pretty sharp in the small minutes he's been allowed on the pitch, while lesser players get more time

Mirallas was patchy form-wise under Moyes too. He's not the player he thinks he is - just hits the occasional decent goal, cross and free kick - needs to go - but agree he needed to be on to seal the deal yesterday.

Martinez is AWFUL as a manager. Look at the league slide once Moyes's discipline had eroded.

RM acceptable points: He can sometimes spot a player, and he can encourage attacking play. He bought Lukaku: brave - paid off, likewise Barry. Besic may come good too. Finally got it right with Robles, too.

RM unacceptable points (aside from any time his mouth is open)
Tactically and strategically weak (not addressed defensive gaps in personnel or need for better defensive organisation). Simply does not understand importance of clean sheets. Blind to the stats that show CANNOT win without this in place. No CM general. Body language in games is awful, too: confused, baffled.

Niasse, Alcaraz, Kone, Wasted money. McCarthy not pushed on, Clev squad player, Fumes Mori 50/50 (both young though). Dolefeu and Mirallas under-played in lieu of patchy Lennon. Galloway and Oviedo - where? Starts them and then, nowhere... That's great for their confidence then.

I can't wait for the arrogant, deluded dreamer to go an ruin someone else - he should go to a Championship side where by and large they're all well organised 4-4-2's and his attacking footballs can make a bit of difference (e.g. Swansea). Wigan was a fluke (great for them), but they beat average teams all the way and aced it. He also bankrupted them.

Mirralas is unprofessional rat. He out for himself, remember the way he took the penalty off Baines and miss.

This totally sums up KM.

He can be a threat, has the ability to cross, shoot and he's a tough nut. Temperamental though and inconsistent. The lad looks simple to me, too. Gotta go.

Good defence with a fair points of an inconsistent player. He does need games to be decent but I think he's better offloaded to a Stoke or West Ham where he'd be first team and add something.
 
I've got no problem whatsoever bombing Kev out the team and club

as long as the replacement is not Kone /Cleverley
