First season with Martinez.

5th place after a slow start while the team was being moulded to his style. (Liverpool finished 8th with Rodgers first season)

Great youth prospects (Barkley, Stones etc.) for next season.

This. We mustn't let our (premature) disappoment cloud what has been a fantastic achievement.

The future's bright.

He got a great reception in the last home game, check YouTube for the video. But his comments when he left were terrible, lets have a look at them again.
Moyes, who left Goodison Park to take over from Sir Alex Ferguson this summer, made it clear that he would not have stood in the players' way had he been in his old job.
However, the Scot conceded that during his own time in charge of Everton, Manchester City attempted to buy Joleon Lescott for an undervalued price, so he has some sympathy for Martínez.
"I definitely do but I also know that if I'd been Everton manager and Sir Alex had come asking for Leighton Baines and Marouane Fellaini, I'd have found it very difficult to keep them because I always felt the right thing to do was what was right for the players," he said. Everton described their former manager's offer for the pair as "derisory and insulting" but Moyes said: "I signed every player at Everton, so I know a lot about them. They are a great club and they are both excellent players

He tried his best to unsettle the team, plus he also said he finally got a winning team when he went to Anfield with Man u.

He didn't believe in Everton Football club and though we were fighting above our weight

There so many more comments but cant find them.

Sure he also made some really disparaging indirect remarks about Martinez... and something like "i know the way Everton operate, maybe in time Roberto will learn that too"

still won't be enough to challenge for top 4, others will improve... probably more so than us as we are limited by budget and not being able to attract top players due to lack of champs league.

What did most people say last season?

Martinez in, 10th place or better would be a great season.

Have a little faith. Just a little. Martinez may surprise you.

Yeah, remember that now. Trying to put Martinez in his place in front of the media and the everton fans. Well Kenwright put Moyes in his place at 11.59 on the evening of the final night in transfer window. 27 million for Fellaini, no Baines, brought in Barry, Lukaku and McCarthy. :)

If we win today we are 1 pt behind arsenal for 4th with 3 to go. Norwich, WBA are fighting for their lives. Plus Arse haven't really been world beaters today and in no way deserved to be 2-0 up in the 1st half. Anyone of us would have taken that even 2 months ago.

I think the absence of Ramsay helped us close you gap and move into 4th. His return will make it difficult to get ahead of them again, but we have to keep the faith lads.

Did you not refer to me as a bellend?

No. If you actually read and digested what I wrote, you would have realised that I told you not to be a bellend. This means that while you are currently not one, the attitude of what you had posted was not dissimilar to that of a bellend and you should rethink your opinion.

Hope that helps, la
