Roberto Martinez Discussion - Including Live Poll (Poll Reset 1st May)

[Neiziro]

Post-Match Interview he said this, and I quote:

"We showed incredible character and incredible swagger".

Not making it up. He had the nerve to utter those words out of his mouth.

Still though, it's very harsh to blame a manager for refereeing incompetence on a grand scale, as we have witnessed over the last week.

Ha don't even get me started on referee decisions bloods boiling on them ! It was more based on the what could have beens.

 

[Elong]

Come over to the dark side mate. It tastes sour admittedly, but at least their is hope first he future.

lol

I was there for 5 years with Moyes, but I threw Kenwright down the Death Starr shaft, took my mask off and redeemed myself.

State of that post match interview

No wonder eto'o thought he was a complete [Poor language removed], can you imagine what he was saying in the dressing room

It's not the age with Howard, some goalkeepers are fine at 39, However, he is rubbish!

I agree compare Howard to Martyn. No comparison. Richard Gough in his late 30s was solid too. Howard lacks a footballing brain to make up for his shortfalls which are many

Uchhh

I have no loyalty to Martinez, my loyalty is to my club Everton, that he is killing with every game.

He's killing your loyalty to Everton?

 

[welshtoffee]

We are the same amount of points from the bottom 3 than we are from 5th, and our form suggests we are heading towards a relegation scrap....

That is a very very big possibility with our current form.

 

[tim cahill]

Out. If he drops Howard I may change my mind though.

 

[jinkyali]

Sacking him papers over the cracks .

Till change at the top we will forever be also rans.

 

[Muppet Basher]

He's killing your loyalty to Everton?

no , just killing Everton

 

[GwladysBlue]

Worst manager I have ever seen at Everton. Surely enough is enough after tonigh?

 

[Elong]

no , just killing Everton

Except he's not, statistically we're as bad as we've always been over the last 120 years.

 

[Elong]

Worst manager I have ever seen at Everton. Surely enough is enough after tonigh?

That must make you 13 years old?

I don't think he did too badly tonight and we were robbed by refs again. Poor subs as always and we didn't show great resilience, but we did ok.

Ultimately though I voted yes because this was the only thing keeping him safe: being in the cup. We aren't now and have been atrocious in the league for 18 months. Excuse after excuse is paraded out but ultimately I think his stubborn philosophy is too flawed to ever produce a balanced and consistent team. Such a shame as he's built a great squad.
