Pellegrini out-foxed by El Conquistador again.

One more time this month, Roberto, and we're at Wembley.

You suggested Tony Pulis would be a good replacement:

As I said: the 'direct' end of the spectrum....

Goodness gracious me.

The worst substitutions ever seen outside Bootle JOC

6 in 21....well done Martinez, you have earned all the praise you receive. That's about par for this squad.

Has he gone yet?

A win and a draw in a week against a team that cost £2 billion to assemble.

The feller's a magician.

Tactically sound again tonight. If he could get 3 out of 3 against them and see us into a final, that'd be a tremendous achievement.

Good result, the damage has already been done in the league sadly.

Still bodes well for the second leg against these I guess. City are so far away from the level they should be playing at that it really gives us a chance.

to be honest I would be fine with another draw.

Another solid tight defensive setup.

Either a) changed his overall approach; b) changes his defensive mindset for the bigger teams

Its being effective though

6 in 21
18 in 59
75 points gained from last 177 avaliable, which means in a era where you get 3 points for a win, Mr. Martonez has Dropped 100 before he got to 76.

Sensational stuff that Every Evertonian should be proud of.

Tbh I think the team naturally drops deeper in these games. Doubt we'll see an overall change of approach when we play against our mid table rivals.

Tonight proved Martlbez has no idea on balance. It's either attack or defend and hardly any proof of anything in between.

A lot more open against Stoke and Leicester than the last 3 games, less people committing themselves and have kept their shape

Tonight are your free hits really, it's a game I'd expect us to lose so anything's a bonus.

The problem is that with the season we've had we need some of these games to turn to wins to give us any outside chance of threatening the European places.
