It will do him the world of good to be back between the sticks!

Who gives a toss about him
I'm only concerned about our team and we are better off with out him.
Seeing him in the MLS can't come quicker enough for me

God no! I can sit through The Hills Have Eyes. Struggle to sit through a Howard game without overly clenching when a cross come in.

If I had to choose between watching Howard play for 90mins or a colonoscopy it's the latter every time

While I might not agree with every team sheet for every match. I'm supporting EVERY player on the pitch for Everton, regardless.

I have doubts about Martinez but if he changes either the keeper or the defence for this game I would seriously doubt his ability as a manager.

"Involved" means on the bench.

Here's hoping

It means (at worst) he'll take the place of Stanek on the bench (and knowing Martinez's tendency to play up return dates, not even making the bench this weekend, in all likelihood).

How could it mean anything else given RM's comments this week about allowing players who've earned the shirt the opportunity to keep it?

He said in the presser that next week was more likely.

For once i am left hoping it's the typical Martinez time line, so we won't see Howard for a month!

Ha, after that post and you accuse me of not knowing what ambition is. Do you think Everton football club display ambition? I don't.

Where are Spurs in the table? I'm sure you're ready with an excuse for that. Think they'll be ditching Pochettino soon? No. 'Squeezed into a league cup final', honestly mate, I'd take that over being squeezed out of one. Klopp took over a poor squad and has barely been there, Martinez is in his third year, my point is about Liverpool's board punishing Rodger's underperformance but you want to judge his work after a few months?

As usual utterly bizarre arguments.

Your idea of ambition is spending as much money as possible and sacking a manager based on him not (so far) making the most of the best squad we've had in a while this season - bare in mind that it's a squad he built.

My idea of ambition is to stay strong with a manager that has improved our style of play, brought better players to the club (by either spending big money or with smart deals), introduced more young talent and smashed our records point total in his first season.

We're four points off sixth. We're not 18th.

As for Spurs, no I haven't got an excuse other than they're playing very well and have got a better squad overall, and a better manager.

At the time Pochettino was appointed there, however, you wouldn't have said that. And to be honest you never know with Spurs.

As for Liverpool, don't give me that stupid media-fuelled argument of 'this isn't his squad'. If Klopp was that good a manager, he'd have got that squad of players performing at a much higher level.

Also, they played an out of form Stoke at their place in the second leg of that semi and squezzed through on penalties. We played City at their place, and the game changed on a ref decision that was clearly wrong. Not saying we'd have gone onto win the game, but we'd have definitely had a much better chance.

And you say I have bizarre arguments
