Don't know how true this is and only letting you know what I have been told. My Dad has just had a call off my Uncle saying that his mate who works for an IT Firm have asked to be involved in the new Everton manager being revealed next week. He said they interviews two mangers last week for the position and they were Solskjaer and Rafael. Could be bull**** but just put money on them both.

Good things about Martinez:

1. The way he conducts himself is in a manner befitting of an Everton manager.
- There are no jibes calling other teams "small clubs", he doesn't publicly berate his players, he talks positively and conducts himself well and with dignity.

2. He has more than Plan A when it comes to tactics.
- Except for the Stoke 3 at the back, Moyes had two plans; Plan A, which was 4-2-3-1 with Fellaini behind the striker. And Plan B, which was 4-2-3-1 with Fellaini dropped deep. Martinez has shown a willingness to mix things up, utilising a 4-3-3 at Swansea, as well as Wigan, then implementing the 3-4-3 and the 5-3-2.

3. He has won a major trophy.
- To win the FA Cup with a team of Wigan's stature is a fantastic achievement.

4. He tries to play attacking football.
- I think we can all appreciate that the League title is well beyond our reach, so why not enjoy watching football again? Some of Everton's attacking play under Moyes was sublime, but all too often he then quickly resorted to caution to defend a one goal lead. I'd like to see Martinez authorise an all out attacking mentality with players we have.

5. He has significant managerial experience, as well as Premier League managerial experience.
- Although I would happily welcome Pereira, the fact that Martinez knows the Premier League inside out would be an advantage.

6. He has one year left on his deal, so compensation would not be massive.
- I personally wanted Laudrup, but spending close to £10m on a manager would be silly given our finances.


Anyway, I hope this answers your query. Let me know if you need any more reasons.

Good post this.

Ive been changing my mind almost daily but I am at peace with Martinez mainly because of these reasons. Laudrup would be my preference but don't think that's possible.
 
"Former Manchester City and QPR manager Mark Hughes and Celtic's Neil Lennon are the frontrunners to take over at Leicester City as the club's Thai owners ponder the future of current boss Nigel Pearson. "

Dell Boy - Your mans going back to Leicester mate !!!!
