An incorrect fact

OK mate xx

At least AF has shown a little objectivity in this thread.

Disclaimer: I'm American. I have a Tim Howard jersey. I've been an Everton fan long enough to remember being confused as hell listening on the radio when Paulo Di Canio caught the ball after Paul Gerrard went down, so, well before Tim Howard.

Some players deserve a certain amount of latitude based on past performance/commitment. It isn't necessarily sentimentality, more familiarity and history providing the belief that poor patches can be worked through and form regained. Lest we forget, Howard has been the starting keeper for 9 seasons, with our worst finishing position in that stretch being 8th. European performances, FA Cup final, and semi-finals, League Cup Semi-Final, 122 clean sheets. He had a good 2013/2014 season, and of course, a great World Cup just 7 months ago.

That being said, I think Howard has used up his latitude and Joel deserves another extended run this season. That doesn't mean Howard should be shipped off immediately. It doesn't mean he can't regain his form and still be a strong Premiership keeper, but you can't ignore his recent poor play.

A sensible post. Can't have that on one of the many Tim Howard threads. MODZ??

Martinez won't drop him as he doesn't do irony.

Does his missus do it? His shirts are always superbly pressed.

I have liked multiple @Kurt posts tonight. My opinion cannot be trusted any longer.

I am sorry to have to scapegoat Tim but I draw the line at players trying to relegate Everton FC single handedly. He is quite clearly a lazy American.

He is only lazy half the time.

There's 2 separate ongoing threads dedicated to how gash this utter waste of semen is? That's quite amazing

What mistakes, Tim does not do them. They are slight miscalculations in judging the flight path of the ball. Ask RM, he knows about these things and did not see Tim make any mistakes.
