I assure you i make my own opinions on what i see.
Moyes has gone.
Martinez this season has been awful and thats why i have my opinion.
I don't think anybody would turn on martinez because they loved moyes

I'm not sure about that.

After yesterdays result we are now cast away into the bottom half of the table.

It was obvious from his team selection and formation he was trying to plug the holes as he sees them
and come away with a point. He got it badly wrong again. Not even close.
He seems completely hapless. He has our team in complete disarray.

So scary to think he is still in charge of my beloved Everton.
I just want him gone.

To be fair, i agree we wasnt great but he definately didnt ask distin to fall over when having to deal with a standard cross, he didnt ask mcgeady to give the ball away under very little pressure and ross barkley to miss control a ball you would expect a 10 year old to deal with.

Many of RM's responses to current difficulties have been precipitate, precipitating unfavourable outcomes. Weather-wise, recent heavy precipitation has not aided matters. Indeed, it might be cogently argued that said precipitation is a partial precipitant to our inaccurate football displays..

'The rain is Spain falls mainly on the Everton defence' ?

...certainly our defence looks wet behind the ears

A big part of that tells me that they feel too comfortable.

Martinez wants them to play with freedom, not be scared.

But with that a lack of concentration and complacency can creep. That gets worse the more you try and be composed when under pressure.

When you're on form and confidence is good, you're Cruyff turning your way out of your own box. When its not and you're still trying to do it, you'll be done.

The one thing Martinez needs to do now is just give the players a kick in the arse. Maybe going back to basics for games and rebuild confidence again.

Did you have Martinez's photo next to Mourinho, Pellegrini and Wenger last season?

 

[Khalekan]

Our fixture list maybe our only saving grace

We don not play any of the top sides as in City,Chelsea,Arsenal RS in our last 10 games

With UTD at home being the only big game for us traditionally

That is actually a crumb of comfort in these gloomy days.

I do think the players need to take a look at themselves because i am seeing very little passion. I cant remember the last time we picked up a lose ball or came out from a 50/50 with possession.

Indeed.

But that fellow was saying we are only facing one of the big guns in the last ten games.....that being United at home.

You would rather be facing the strugglers at the end of the season rather than the top teams.

We are weak from the top,there is nobody taking ownership of the situation

Correct harry. ****houses they are, hiding behind a manager taking the stick for them.

They need to stand up and be counted. Fair weather phonies.

True but let's hope come the last few games were not in a position were we are scrapping for points
