Eric given Martinez has spent roughly £40m in three transfer windows and LVG has spent £300m in two, which would you say has done the better job?

I agree with your sentiment, but by that logic we've had the best manager for the last 10 years. We've consistently been ahead of the lower spenders ( If there are any) and just below the big spenders.

Ditto. For a long time I took his positive euphemisms purely as rhetoric, expecting his discussions with the press to differ from those to the players.

However, some of the absolute tosh he consistently spouted last season through our poor patch made me wonder if it's his true mentality.

It would suit the image of a person being complacent: our play must be good because I did it and any faults will soon be ironed out naturally.

How can you not actually practice set pieces? I know they're dynamic and can be hard to defend, but they're a key aspect of the game.

Any work on them must be to some extent beneficial. Just hoping the problem will go away will not.

I think it's refreshing, tbh. It's like he's saying: "We're not arsed about your agricultural football. We dont need to get near to you in the box, making contact with your WWF special teams. We do things with a bit more guile and class at Everton".

And then laughing in their faces.
 

some boss signings

But I question his use of subs.

We are playing some sexy possession attacking footy at the moment, but we can't finish off crap teams.

People like yourself an @orly want us to get beat just in the hope RM gets sacked

Whatever someone's opinion, bringing someone else into question and saying they want Everton to get beat is only going to aggravate.

Wow
The post states that after the mentioned 2 defeats and two managers getting the sacked, you then mention the dream.
This indicates to me that for your dream to come true we need to get beat and hopefully RM gets the sack.

I guess you will point out to me that your dream is just for RM to get the sack
