Some good points there about Barkley, etc. but as far as defending goes I wish I shared your optimism. Alas I don't, and believe we will always concede goals under Martinez - his record suggests that this is the case. Yes he will get bodies behind the ball when needs be; like last season when we were in spot of bother as far as the table was concerned and also recently when he finally copped on that we were losing games at home because we were unable to get the balance right between attacking and defending.

Maybe the penny has finally dropped with him that there needs to be this balance but it will take more evidence than wins against Carlisle and Newcastle for most of us to believe it.

I'm just trying to be optimistic. The wins recently were great fun, but not meaningful until we start winning consistently over a season or in the big cup games. Unless this takeover bid goes through, there isn't much hope of Martinez being sacked, so why be so negative. He's made a lot of great changes and evolved as a manager in the time he's been here.

Off the top of my head I would have gone for Mancini.

If we are not big enough for the likes of him then I have seriously gotton wrong where I see Everton in the global game now.

Mancini would never have come here after having hundreds of millions to spend at City.

We did well getting Martinez in. And it's been the right choice.

Why not? He's never going to get that sort of money to spend again in his career.

It really does show how far we have fallen in stature when some think that Martinez is the best we can do and look for excuses why a proven PL winner wouldn't come to us.
