I liked Martinez and I liked his vision, but I'm an Everton fan first and our form puts us at the bottom of the league. Right now a new manager could not do worse; that's how bad it is. If we continue as it is, it isnt going to be a relegation battle, we will finish comfortably in the...

Exactly mate. When I was a kid growing up in the 80's watching Everton we loved wingers and we loved attacking passing football. I think Moyes may have damaged the expectations of our fans for a small generation far more than I realised. It always amazes me when I see players like Mirrallas...

Oh no! What were you thinking! See I did it the other way around, I initially put him in my fantasy football last year, but then thought, 'nah, I never get any luck with Everton players', so I dropped him, and that's why he was so awesome! You gotta put it right now. You have to bet on him...

Ah right. Personally I dont remember him being not that good. I always thought we used him bad or maybe didnt suit our style. But I just wiki'd his stats and it looks like his goals dried up after he left us. Suppose Moysey got that one right.

I forget why we sold him now. Was it only for the money? I remember his form dipping after being accused of being a diver, but I'm sure he was still pretty good and always worked hard.

Old Joey Yobo! Yeah I'd have him on a free. Why did he even leave? A good solid defender (Except when he forgot NOT to pass to former players that is...)

I was gutted when AJ left. I always thought he was a great little player. He should always get a good reception whenever he's back.

Shock news: Everton football club disgusted they have to play 5 football matches! I mean come on, what are we, a footbal club or something?

So I'd say, get out there, work your bloomin hardest and who cares if you make the odd mistake if all the good things outnumber the bad.

I seem to remember quite a few times old Moyesy would drop players for the smallest of mistakes. Personally dont think that's good for developing players. You're kind of saying: YOU cost us the match. If your boss came up to you at work and said, 'Your sh**e mate, do you know that?', then I...

Haha yeah! :-) All I know is, in any sport that I've ever played whever I feel a bit over confident or cocky of my abilities I seem to play better, while on the other hand if I'm under confident in what I can do that naturally I play worse. So isnt it better to be over-confident? In life you...

Well I'd say that a keeper can only do so much to influence a game. Ultimately, a player can get into position to make it actually impossible for a keeper to do anything about it. Like you say, it has to be about the defence not giving the opposition space. Which pretty much explains all of...

Couldnt the same be said to some extent, of Stones? And he's made the England squad at such a young age based on that over confidence.

To be fair though, most football fans will never see their team win the league, or even a trophy. Most football fans will never get to witness their team play in the premiership. There are people who dont really care too much about football and are only interested in watching their team win...

You seem to really not rate the guy. I'm not taking the P, just asking, but what is it, is it that you just really dont think he's very good or is it more the attitude?

For me the goalkeeper would be the least of our worries with a limited budget. Tim Howard is a very good goalkeeper and very much a proffesional. It's the part of the team that least affects your performance anyway. You protect the keeper and you can make any keeper look world class. There...

You may very well be right, but he's a young player and almost certain to change his style with age and which country and level he plays at. Give the guy a bit of time I say.

Well I havent seen enough of him in a blue shirt to make that call yet. But then I'd argue no one has seem enough of him in a blue shirt to make that judgement either. Havent you written him off without giving him a chance a little?

Precisely. It's not £28 million up front, I'm sure much of that depends on appearances, league positions and potential champion league qualification. All of which if do come true then warrant the sum involved. And in any case, considering how well the player has performed up to this stage in...

So basically, the first 3 games are absolutely no indication of how the rest of the season will pan out. Which is kinda obvious because it's only 3 games.
