IS ROBERTO THE NEW "TINKERMAN"

[Khalekan]

Still a change to the team.

Yes, but that is not "tinkering".

Tinkering is unenforced changes.

Rafael was worse than Ranieri.

He once ran up a sequence of 99 consecutive different starting line ups at Liverpool and had a laugh at the media by sending out an unchanged side in the 100th game.

Martinez does not tinker enough he keeps playing his favourites.
Today was ideal to go at leicester with 2 wingers but yet again he bottled it

 

[chicoazul]

HOUSE.

 

[Joey66]

Tinkering by playing favourites, and dropping Stand in players who have done well - Robles for starters - Barry will be another, also Baines would have played instead of Ovideo after his great game on Thursday injured or not!

 

[Prevenger17]

If he'd tinker Howard out of the goals, and tinker two freaking wingers on to the pitch I wouldn't really care.

Think you're funny, yeah? Barely relevant meme.

Thought Bobby set us up very well today. Getting all 3 points against a pretty decent Leicester side was always going to be a tall order. Still, one point sees us further navigate our way out of relegation territory. My main aim/ambition this season is to see if we can catch Stoke. I appreciate this might sound delusional but I genuinely do not think they are that much better than us (despite Mark Hughes's managerial talents)

I thought the same thing last season. When Barkley had a great game (think it was Arsenal away, might be wrong) he dropped him for Osman the next, same thing before the boxing day game when we got beat 1-0 by Sunderland. Ross came on in that match and did everything but score. This season he's played Barkley on the wings ffs no wonder he's been woeful and his confidence has gone.

Hate to say it but look at the RS last season, hardly ever changed the side and after a few months were smashing teams.

The ironic thing is Roberto never rotates Barry or Howard (unless he's injured) WTF

Martinez has gone from a hero to an absolute bell in the space of 6 months

Can you imagine if Everton actually did win EL and had to play CL next year. I can not bear to think about RM tactics and team management style being exposed to the likes of Barca Bayern et al It would be ugly and make this year mild in comparison. Could the entry to CL be declined
Or maybe my pessimism is running out of control

 

[toffee matt]

He doesn't tinker though.

5-6 players are guaranteed a start no-matter how awful they've been

 

[degsy]

It baffles me that Roberto Martinez on a weekly basis fails to keep the same side. I understand him changing the team after a European game but other than that he rotates, does Roberto not know his best eleven?
Claudio Ranieri once of Chelsea got the name of the tinkerman. Has Roberto now adopted that title?

Moyes never did - or how to best play them if he did ever stumble upon it by accident.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss
*loud guitar chord
We did get fooled again
