Calm down

Moyes had the whole side set up defensively with every player expected to do their part and defend from the front

Martinez gives the forwards much more freedom to express themselves and as a result play less part in the defensive side of play.

Despite this, last season with our back four playing in a completely different system we had the third best defensive record in the league

*bats ball back into melts court

The system was the same last season, for defence, as it was in Moyes' last season. That has now changed and we are suffering for it.

That's what I would have thought. Mods?

@Woolyblue is neglecting his mod duties tonight - see his earlier post...


Standards in here are slipping








Sorry Wooly

It really isn't lid and you will find that 99.9% of this forum, all Evertonians and my Nan will disagree with you

Still don't know what a lid is. Unless it is sealing a box.

There is no new system. That's the problem. Moyes system has been bred out and replaced with nothing.

Are you David Moyes? Shouldn't you be looking for a job?

David has become very bitter in his dotage

Hey, we have to be grateful to what moyes did for us. He took us out of obscurity. However he hit his limit. Martinez was seen as the guy to take us further. He has taken us into a team that could contend with the top 4. However he's neglected defence. I don't think that is something that is up for debate. He's not brought in a defender that can play first string. He's not improved us there.

Jags has not been the same since he was injured last season. Distin is, unfortunately on the wane. Stones is not ready for first team action. How can anyone argue that the defence is a liability?

Okay lid x

Then what are we even arguing about, David?

 

[mythbuster]

Totally disagree. Having a contrary opinion is not a reason to be "negged". It's lame. Some people just can't debate, it's easier for them.

All very balanced from you here, I see.
