Roberto Martinez discussion

[davek]

Fully agree with that. Building the style will inevitably come with pitfalls. Where I'd like to see some progress is the way we close out games and our ability to stiffle when we have a lead. I'd much rather be the team that understand the requirement to win over constantly entertaining. I've seen signs of it in games but we've been a bit naïve to many times this season. I'm prepared to be patient though.

Half a dozen times we've seen Everton play great footy, take the lead and then fail to close out the game by just breaking the game flow up for the opposition. It's that type of 'performance' we need to add to the undoubtedly stylish attacking play.

I ask that The Cult lower their weapons and embrace The Plotters like brothers.

“Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win”

The Fence Sitters can jog rar on tho.

You are the greatest weapon The Plotters have.

davek is spot on here - the entire mentality of the club had to be changed and with any change there are lows - but clearly were a
seeing a style of play fitting for Everton. Next step is the draws to wins and the difference is a clear challenge for CL. I defy anyone to not admit that were much more attractive to watch then the previous Manager ( no dig here Moyes was the right man at that time)

We played better football under Moyes.

Sorry but we did, not all the time, but Moyes knew how to win ugly and how to win with style.

Really - you actually believe our football was better. I don't recall a moyes team being anywhere near highest scorers. Wow.

Seen us play the most turgid, awful football, at home, this season in years.

While conceding the most.

Consistency vs let's be honest a very rare event - to balance I also recall 7 being put past us as well.

Don't disagree but your point wasn't that more being bored at home games which clearly isn't the case vs goals scored.

13 goals in 3 games against the bottom 3. He was right most of the home games have been awful.
