Roberto Martinez discussion

Interesting stat here - today was our 7th consecutive clean sheet in a league game at Goodison in a row. We are now one short of the current record (8 consecutive Goodison league game clean sheets), which has stood since 1987/1988.

That is quite remarkable!
Of course we've just jinxed it now.
 
I'm trying. By god I am trying! But no matter how much I want to believe in him, how much I want him to succeed and how much I want to just feel naturally positive about the man, I just can't help but feel very worried and ultimately negative about the appointment of Roberto Martinez as manager of Everton Football Club. I know there's an obvious divide in Everton fans' views and opinions of this issue, but what about the man wearing the mask like me. The man who's putting a smile on and forcing himself to look and "feel excited about Martinez, but deep down knows that something just doesn't fit. I know I'm not the only one wearing that mask of jubilance covering a face of concern, worry and gloominess. Having watched the full appointment of Martinez press conference on YouTube, I think it's blatantly obvious that Kenwright is wearing that mask too. Some say this is a time of promise and future glory, with the players we have, the football Martinez' teams play and the fact that we're taking on a manager who won what Moyesey never could (a trophy!), and I'm happy for those people. Others say this is a huge mistake, with a manager that's never progressed a bottom five team which was finishing higher in the league before he took over and now under his reign got relegated, and I'm happy for those people too. At least you openly know where you stand. But those of you wearing the mask of delight covering up a deep down despair, put your hand up and make yourself known, because I know there's more than just me and Blue Bill.

Ha Ha. Proper cracks me up that.
 
I didn't see his post match interview but mate said RM was engaged, intelligent and enthusiastic. Well dressed, able to explain himself and able to imagine the football we want. Perfect image for Everton dn content behind the image.

I had and retain every respect for Moyes as a manager but now I'm thankful we have RM.
 
I would be patience if all this patient passing would get us to win games we should be realistically winning.

And under the old regime we won every game we should have won.....some folk need to cast there eyes back to some of thd very real should vave won games that dms everton lost...remember Norwich a few short month s ago.......should have won. .....I could go on but there will always be should have wons. The man is trying to create something. ...so far its looking good
