It's all conjecture, but I would agree that Moyes probably wouldn't have paid the £28m for him. I don't think he'd have been opposed to taking him on loan, though.
Moyes would have been more likely to go in for Bony or Benteke, although I'm sure some will swear blind that he'd have wanted Cameron Jerome.
Don't really understand how those statistics show that Martinez is a better manager. Especially without context.Moyes won 218 out of 518. So 41% of his games.
Martinez has won 54 out of 125. So 43% of his games.
Much the better manager. Mind being better than moyes doesn't mean good enough.
Problem is there is no proof whatsoever that this style of football will work in the PL. Martinez has been trying it for 6 years now with limited success. Klopp has had to have a quick rethink and I think Pep is in for the shock of his life when he gets here.
My opinion is that it will never work as the game is too quick here, tempo of the game is just too high.
Sorry just don't agree. There has been no noticeable change in the youth teams under Martinez.
The "Everton Way" predates Martinez by about a decade. It was all part of the Finch Farm project when Moyes wanted everyone in one location. The likes of Dowell were regularly training alongside the first team when they were about 14.
I often read people crediting Martinez for the U18 sides excellent performances but those players have been with Everton since 7. He speaks more openly about it but the structure was put in place well before him by the likes of Ray Hall, Tosh Farrell etc
Not very good, does anyone know Moyes record wins in 60 games?
Moyes record w for the strikers were crap. He was better at defenders and midfielder, good solid steady Eddie players

Like Arteta, Pienaar, Mirallas, Cahill, Donovan, Fellaini, Coleman, Baines, Jagielka, Lescott, Distin.
Yeah proper steady eddies there. No way is that a list of internationals some of which have been Everton's best ever prem players and some even in PFA team of the season. No just a load of steady eddies. None of them in the current side though. Barry McCarthy Cleverley Mcgeady Kone Lennon all magical players tearing up the league.
Moyes's PL winning ratio with Everton was 42%. Martinez is 29% since summer 2014. Overall, 39% including his first season. To be fair, his first season was impressive.
The prem is 23 and a half seasons old. Moyes was here for 11 and a half seasons.
If he didn't sign some of our best ever prem players it would be an outrage, given that nearly half of our prem games were with him as manager.
Moyes averaged all of those over a lot longer. Martinez has had one good season and one bad season and looks on course for another bad one. God forbid that Martinez gets 11 years because if he does I'm certain that those averages for him will go down a lot.Martinez and Moyes have won the same ammount of trophies at everton: 0.
Martinez and Moyes have smiliar average positions in the league at everton: 8 to 7.5
And Martinez has won 43% of his games to Moyes' 41%.
Doesn't detract from the fact that they were very very good players not steady eddies.
