jose mourinho showing his love and appreciate for tony pulls. 70' and they have 0 shots on goal and 0 targets. they have 1 goal from a penalty and 39% possession. playing not to lose, keep parking that bus mou.

haha sorry i meant barry

Would love to see him go, will laugh when he's riding the bench for a CL team. Inconsistent, injured, selfish, no thanks. Would rather have a youngster in there than this selfish prick. You want to win us back kev, sign the contract we offered.

It seems like Martinez strategy with Ross is the same none he used with barkley. Instead of benching him for his form, he's hoping he plays his way out of the bad form. Not sure if I agree with it, but it did work for barry.

better than a loss. now that we know Mirallas true colors off with him. 12m and get us another 2 wingers and a loan. Would rather see Kone on that wing instead of kev.

Sell him bobby, get 12m please.

Stuck at work, can't watch, but loving this thread. Coyb

Exactly. He understands how important McCarthy is for us. I hope he gets back asap.

Dude I live in New Orleans as well. Where in the city are you? I lived in the upper ninth ward and just moved to lakeview. Have fun at the match.

Exactly, we need a winger badly.

I should have phrased what I said better, apologies. Romey and others are jumping on Martinez because he said he doesnt care about clean sheets he just cares about winning. Some have taken this to say he doesn't care about defense. My point was that Roberto is not naive and to win a game you need offense so not caring about a clean sheet doesn't mean he doesn't care about defense, it simply means in the simplest way, to win a game you just out score the opponent. Obviously you need 11 men and defense and offense and the transition game, etc. im not against any of that, I love a solid d and keeper. What I am saying is rm isn't agaisnt defense, and isn't naive. Not sure if you all follow basketball but there was a college team that won multiple championships by playing minimal defense. They simply attacked and moved the ball as fast as possible back down the court to score. By their superior scoring skills and conditioning they would wear teams down and win by 20 points. All attack. That's not to say I believe in that way, just putting different ideas out there.

3 points. You play to win. You don't play to not lose.

Martinez said winning the the most important. You claim he is naive for not mentioning defense. But you fail to see that the only way to win is score. Defense is great but it cannot win a game. Simple as that. So he's not naive, he knows how to win a game, by scoring. Never said not to play defense or whatever, just saying the letter of the law is scoring is the o oh way to win, so therefore Martinez is not naive.

With altidore going to Toronto FC. An end to another woeful PL spell. Hope he finds the goal in Canada.

It is irrelevant. Explain to me how you win a football game by not out scoring the opponent. Not possible. Defense is great, but offense is the only way to win the match, unless you want davie draw back.

Sounds good, 30% is doable. Now go sign em up bobby.

Agreed mike. Some posters on here were very disparaging towards the deal saying Martinez is an idiot and Everton what a joke. All I was saying is they are competing well and will stay up, so it's actually a decent thing if we want young players to get loaned there or something. Not saying they are world beaters up there, but it's nice to see them doing well.

Other Dundee but they are doing well in the SPL, I know a lot of folks on here were talking down about the partnership since they just were promoted but they can play.

Spot on and good to have you back.

Ah my bad, then I agree completely.

Yes please!!

Has nothing to do with Everton. They were interested in the kid and he goes blabbing to the press acting like its a done deal. My pops used to say don't count your chickens before they hatch. Kid should take that advice.
