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

[Toffeelover]

Yes, it takes up a space where Martinez's statue should be.

DD achieved far more than RM has to date. RM does not merit a statue at this time or in the forseeable future.

You have something against the DD statue, Dave?

Can someone enlighten me? What did Bill say after the Chelsea game?? (not that he'd ever say anything after a shocking performance like the Arsenal game)

 

[Toffeelover]

No doubt this agricultural hoofball can be traced back to when we used to lump it up to Dixie.

The feller has a lot to answer for. His statue should be taken down immediately and replaced with a statue of the man who has us playing football from the gods down in the bottom half of the table.

Perhaps but he did net 60 times in one season. You ever headed one of those old caseys?

Bill knows not tom open mouth unless we win.

Davek still piping plotters down. Sad to see that nobody has enough game to take him out.

 

[Prevenger17]

BUT HE'S ONLY ONE MAN

Yes. I still wince from the pain just thinking about it.

 

[toffee matt]

That Martinez season when we won 13 homes games - it was the largest number of home games won for 27 years.

Lol.

Martinez even holds the best record since HKI was in charge for the very thing he's being slaughtered for at the moment.

More inconvenient truths.

Badly Damon this

Interesting.... was he not backed at the start of this season ? I agree that mid table mediocrity is a position accepted by most PL clubs apart from the clubs at the top (aka Sky 4,5,6 etc) (oh wait Leicester are top now) and survival in the prem is regarded as an achievement for most.. we now have some moolah backing us but for me the jury is out on whether I would trust RM to build a solid defence for next season and finish higher than this season

If he's backed with Moshiri's cash then he'll have to produce PL form well in excess of this. A cup win would make him fireproof for a while like.

As for sorting the defence out: he's made a decision on Howard which is a big step forward; and the only cash he's spent on defenders so far is to bring in Galloway and Mori, who I'd regard as successes. In short: trust him.

Well DD managed that a good number of times, BTW his record has not been beaten. RM has still to achieve anything for Everton

 

[DualityNSNO]

I'm convinced Dave is on a windup now, he can't not be, surely?

Can I suggest that you invest in a sarcasm detector sir ?

 

[davek]

Wow. I honestly don't know how your support is like this. Your either related to Martinez, aren't really an Everton fan or like to annoy us lol

It's not exactly that difficult mate: PL record breaking manager for us; we're at Wembley with a good chance of a final and trophy; he's signed some great players on the cheap for the most part.

That's what i see; that's what the decision makers see.

Only the divvies on twitter and certain no mark nobheads in the local press dont see it (or dont want to see it)...and no one in a position of power is listening to that lot.

We'll see in May.
