What's McCarthy in with that lot for?
Martinez didnt sign Lukaku in his first season.
He was bought in the 2nd.
Can hardly compare Martinezs second season with Brands, cos he hasnt had it yet, unless you have a crystal ball?

Seriously injury prone, yes a good player that I like but your talking about wages that Mina is on, McCarthy has had more than his share in wages and been on the treatment table for how long. 17 appearances in the last 3 years for us, 7 as a substitute.

Exactly.... ‘that lot’

The point is clear by now though: when holding Brands up to scrutiny it has to be to a reasonable comparison. And Koemageddon is not that reasonable example.
He's doing no better than Martinez did (as we've established) and any comparison with Moyes would just make him look daft.
As said: Brands = doing ok. That's about it.

I think it’s clear that we’ve established that he is doing a better job than Martinez as per the previous reply’s
I refuse to continue any further, my head is hurting from shaking it so much and my tongue hurts from tutting.

Nope. First year purchases for Martinez were largely inspired (Lukaku/Barry/Deulofeu), money well spent (McCarthy) + Kone and Alcarez (one of whom was a free).
Just signing a £27M dud like Mina blots Brands' copy book.

Sorry mate your wrong on all fronts. 1) we loaned lukaku first then paid 28M for him, as we’ve noted was a large amount then, Barry yes good, Geri eventually didn’t work out, and the Wigan lot your on a wind up with. Mina jury is still out it’s a debate to have at the end of next season, let’s say he has a terrible season or just doesn’t play much I’d be much more confident we could recoup all of the 27M we paid out for him, could that be said of anyone Martinez signed apart from Lukaku?

Ha ha ! Davek is right though, there seems to be a bit if a narrative that he's some sort of saviour.
The whole "we pay what marcel wants" mentality. He's got in decent players that helped us to 8th in the league and so far he's signed the same player again, this time for money. Still a long way to go before he can be seen as someone who's transformed Everton.

At the moment though we are comparing his signing to Kone and Alcaraz
