Roberto Martinez discussion

[Chang Elephant]

Should be a lot higher up than it is. I'd argue it's better than Spurs' Leicester's and has more offensive power than United's or Liverpool's. We'll be behind all of them though.

Agreed, there's posters that have grown up with Everton being crap due to Kenwright, Osman and Tim Howard. They need to get off their knees.

 

[Woolly Blue]

We should stride towards the title and grasp it

Haha
ffs Changy

Ok. I have to say I am just disappointed by todays dreadful result.

Not having a direct stick at the manager btw. I was saying it might not be as easy as we thought to get points against these lesser teams.

Don't worry mate, Davek's lapped out how we can get to the magical 58 point mark this season already. Having our tummy tickled by the top teams and then average midtable form v everyone else will see us nicely into 8th or 9th. Nil Satis.

My mistake villa I posted in, Sunderland I missed.

Still waiting by the way pal

Hmmm, interesting that your memory seems to struggle with games we did well in. Very interesting.

With this squad top 5/6.
But with chelseas demise we could sneak top 4,we have as good a squad as spurs and the scum.

Manager isn't as good, that's the sad truth.

Away to any club is a struggle unless you're a City or Arsenal on fire in this league.

It really is that simple. Two points were there for us today but you have to give B'mouth massive credit. I'm fuming still, but I have massive admiration for that spirit they showed. I hope they stay up with those donated 2 points, btw!

Win against boro and all will be well in the world

I am more concerned with the league games though knowing that the Sky4 or 6 are still in the league cup competition.

At least we have to beat these lesser teams at home then hopefully a Europa place next season.

No he is not but hopefully he will eventually learn and sort us out.

Twas ever thus.

Offered 3 points today or a win on Tuesday there's no choice to be made...it will be difficult though. Very difficult.

Said it before and will say it again. Martinez would make a wonderful director of football, and who knows one day he might get lucky and accumulate enough talent to overcome his lack of coaching ability. He is not a great coach though so we will continue to have incredibly talented sides finishing midtable or average sides flirting with relegation.

Lost away to WBA last week.

Well, someone's being a pessimistic pelican

our current goalkeepers and lack of strength in depth/experience in defence is way off a league winning squad

That was no struggle today the players gave up and the manager let them

Every squad we've had since the 80s is always described as the best one since the 80s.

It's a young squad that sometimes plays with naive abandon. As Wooly said earlier: you take the rough with the smooth of it until they get experience.

We're on the right path headed in the right direction. It's all good.

the weird thing is our exciting highs bring lower lows, if that makes sense...
