Confirmed: Martinez New Everton Manager - All Reaction Here

[Allezfan]

See them half time subs? That's what happens when you have a manager who doesn't have a f'kin ridiculous self-imposed 60 minute rule.

Viva la Martinez, PERFECT tactical nous during the game today.

He dug himself a hole with an awful line up but he did what he needed to do to get himself out of it.

By itself, it's pretty impressive but he better not make a habit of it. Much better to get it right from the start.

Tbf he stuck with the teamthat beat Chelsea. After that result, most managers would. Difference is Moyes would wait till 60/70 mins and we would have lost.

 

[Goat]

Well hes won me over.

All hail Bobby the smiler.

Don't care, he shouldn't have done.

He made a mistake and then corrected it. There's both positives and negatives in that.

He didnt make any mistakes, you dont change a winning team, expect that final 11 to start vs Newcastle

Did you watch that first half?

Expect a few leaked goals but if we manage to score more than the other team = entertainment!

Very true, he didn't dwell too long and the substitutions were the difference though, apart from McCarthy's foul. For the first time in a long time we have a strong bench that we can call on to change a game.

First half was putrid, tbf.

I really hope Martinez has got it straight in his head now that you dont just play a team because it won it's last.

In fact, it goes against his statements about having the variety to change things around and mix things up depending on the task at hand.

 

[Bigmaclad]

I had my doubts initially but he's starting to prove me wrong

VIVA MARTINEZ

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

Made a mistake in his team selection. At half time he corrected which is a big positive for me. Hopefully the team that ended the game is the one that starts next week.

I see only positives in that...for after all, everyone makes mistakes.

I think that's a fair point mate.

I didn't expect Lukaku to start today but I expected a better lineup than what we started with.

Credit to changing it up in the 2nd half as well, thought Oviedo did OK as well.

Subs on 45 minutes.

Hats off to Roberto there.
