Everton

[tsb]

It will be interesting to see how it will go. Martinez takes over a club and squad geared and moulded for a very differnt style of play than he brings, and it's really a question how many of the Everton players have what it takes to change. I reckon it will take some time for Everton to go through a transition. Or they need to back Martinez with the money for a few players, and that's unlikely to happen.

I'm feeling fairly certain that they won't be anywhere near as high in the table next season!

Has a football manager ever gotten two clubs relegated in consecutive years?

[Camble]

I didn't want them to get Martinez, I think that he'll actually do well. I was preying for Neville or somebody.

I quite like Martinez, hopefully he doesn't turn into an anti Liverpool cunt who'll get me to dislike him.

I think i would rather have Martinez at Everton and Moyes at the Scum than the other way round though

[Liverpel]

Oh I'm sure they've changed their minds now - exciting young manager, attractive style of play, extensive sweater collection, etc...

This is from May last year.

This. I really dont understand why people still rate Martinez, he is the same guy who managed Wigan at the start of the year when they were absolutely ****e! and he's the one who got them into a relegation situation, for the second time in consecutive seasons! a few good results towards the end of the year and he is being considered as a manager for Liverpool!? and people would want him if Moyes went? The worlds gone mad!

is the everton team that much better than the wigan team?

we know how martinez has just avoided relegation for a few years, moyes went through a period of having to do that not so long back.

neither team 'seem' to be big spender. what are the net spends like?

My Bluenose mates were pissing themselves when it looked like we were getting him last year

Martinez has at least won a trophy whereas Rodgers hasn't so...

so bill took 30 seconds to decide on moyes 45 seconds on martinez but still took over 11 years not to see that they have actually won **** all in all his time as chairman

According to Bluenoses you don't have to win trophies to be a winner

Paul Tyrell resigns as Everton's director of communications ....... to be replaced by Dave Whelan of Wigan

i amazed at how many of my blue mates are buzzing because...

a) he turned down us so he is amazing
b) he's amazing
c) he'll get them in the champions league in four years.

i think - certainly short term he is going to struggle.

They don't have much cash, i'd imagine they will lose Fellaini and baines.

Plus like darkon has pointed out, the changing of style might set them back a little bit

they are a successful (for them) because of their solid, stable set up, work rate etc - something which martinez is renowned for

they also arent' the most creative side going forward

i reckon as martinez tries to get them to play better football, their defence will suffer and i reckon they could have a dip in results...

then it will be interesting to see - fans will get restless (oh no they won't according to most blues i've spoken to they see it as a 4 year plan to get back to where they belong ), pressure will mount -

good be really difficult

He's too nice for Everton.

Watching a Derbyshire with *both* teams looking to pass will be rather odd.

He has, but not at Liverpool.
