Tim Howard

[803 Toffee]

LOOOOOOOOOL why?

Only because he's the reason I fell in love with Everton many years ago. I guess it should've said it'll be bittersweet to see him leave, if only for that reason.

Whats the point debating Howard. We could sign De Gea and the catalan clown would still pick Howard.

We could sigh De Gea and you lot would still probably boo him too.
Its just a part of being an Everton fan... moan about everything until we win everything.

Ah ok, fair enough then

Barnsley 5 -3

Reading 2 -1

Norwich 1-1

Boro 2-0

Man City 2-1 and 3-1

6 games, 9 goals conceded. 3 games against lower league opposition and one at home to Norwich. This is just league cup alone - Robles is a vast improvement but still isn't good enough

Totally agree, they're both awful goalkeepers, just Robles is more agile than Howard

 

[ArtetaMoney]

Robles going in goal is one of many fixes which is needed, it's not going to be a total fix to what we need as that's gonna take a lot more than a GK change.

However, it will stop people being absolutely fuming before they even get to the match when they see Tim is on the team sheet while having a pre match bevvy. It'll stop people jeering ironically when he holds onto the ball. It'll also stop my blood pressure going through the roof every time I have to look at his smug potato head!

Therefore, dropping him can only be a good thing.

The only people still defending Howard now are the same ones who still think Landon Donvan could do a job for us.

Draw your own conclusions.

Not true.

But I did love Donovan. Didn't we all?

I'm certainly not defending him as a footballer now ( if that's what you call goalies ) but this fella has been in goal for ten years at our club and has played over 400 games and has been a good servant who has more good than bad years! Forget the last 2 years that Martinez has played him even though he's finished and remember him for what he was! You've got lads defending stones as though he was a colossus who can do no wrong despite him playing for a move, shipping goals and handing in transfer requests at the first opportunity !!! Howard is finished , anyone can see that apart from Martinez so we've ended up with him being the focus of all that's wrong with Everton at the moment which in not fair on he fella no matter how much of a nobhead he is! Honestly I though we had more class than this!

Wouldn't be surprised to see Howard back for Carlisle.

Martinez quoted in his press conference Robles starts in goal.

Quite clear that Robles is our cup keeper. At least it means we stand a chance

Not really, we still have the cheese cloth defense in front of him.

No... and he is the epitome of the accepted level of mediocrity that is killing us if truth be told.

I believe it would be a lot less porous with Joel in there though. They obviously trust him a lot more
