Rather than fill in the hole left by the dock I would like to see a massive underground car park (like Monaco) so that you could park under the corner flag with plenty of exits for cars, buses and coaches.

I feel as if I am walking om water ~ I can't believe how well things are going.
 
First of all there was the win on Saturday. But it wasn't just the win but well we did it and how well the whole team played ~ it was a real team effort.
 
But secondly the appearance of Farhad Moshiri ~ like most people I had never heard of him a month ago.
On the new Forbes List he is the 1011 richest billionaire in the world with $1.91billion to his name. Abramavich is 151 in the world with $7.91billion.
However he genuinely seemed to be enjoying and understanding the game. I compare him with the other billionaire owners who seldom attend let alone enjoy or understand the beautiful game.
His interview with Bill Kenwright was great (I hope he is not put off with Kenwright's arm around his shoulder real luvie duvie). Farhad said all the right things about investing in the team and the stadium
Well done Bill Kenwright for finding someone who ticks all the boxes.
I was afraid we were going to end up with someone like the Glaziers.
 
He was on the sidelines when Arsenal moved stadiums so I hope he looks at the attendance figures over the weekend.
Man Unt v West Ham 75,000
Arsenal v Watford 58,436,
Everton v Chelsea 37,283.
He will realise what needs doing.
 

In my view if Deulofeu, Lennon and Miralias had been together against WBA they would have found a way arond the park bus.

Spot on. Not using subs again, sjambok ice defending with some amazing players and sticking with a shit goalie when he's consistently terrible. plays McCarthy when he's still injured and gets re-injured and I'm just fed up.
 
I hope the Americans shell out big money and being in a top notch manager.

Martinez direction straight out the fucking door hopefully had enough of the Spanish prick and his Bullshit

Its not about Martinez ability. It's about his arrogance and his refusal to try to fix something that is so obviously broken - namely, our defence.
 
He has to go. Soon.

Facts don't lie , we are a mid table team unfortunately
 
Hate to say it but there is no doubt in my mind whatsoever that Moyes would have this squad in the top 4

I'm still behind Roberto. He has the potential to be an excellent coach if he improves on the weak areas of his management - game management and substitutions, defensive coaching, squad rotation.
 
What is a concern that these weak areas have showed very little sign of improving. Some of them, in fact, have looked worse.
 
I don't want us to become another typical football club though and sack managers when they could be given more time. Don't look at other clubs and think "this underachievement would never be accepted at Spurs etc." - clubs who sack manager after manager are the ones getting it wrong, we should stick with this guy until it becomes 100% conclusive that he cannot take us forward.

I'm really hoping he address' this defensive frailty. Just watched his post match interview. He looks pissed off. Good to hear him say it's not good enough at the back and needs improving. Please dort it out!
 
And the reason I really want him to sort it out is because he has done quite a bit right this season. We are playing some real good football. He is getting some good stuff out of most players.
 
A lot of credit is going to Lukaku. But you look at that whole attacking quartet and there are some brilliant efforts this season. Lukaku has 15 league goals, 4 assists, Geri 2 goals, 7 assists, Barkley 6 goals, 7 assists and Kone 5 goals, 4 assists. You can't ask for more than that.
 
Behind them, Barry is having a very good season, McCarthy is overall doing fine and Cleverly has covered very well.
 
The back 4 individually no one is having a nightmare and the talent is there.
 
As I said earlier, I fear that this defensive malarkey will destroy all his other good work. That will be a real shame.
 
I do still support him, I don't think he needs sacking now, and if this defensive crap carries on right to the end of the season, then no, a cup run wouldn't mask over it.

On the one hand the critics of Martinez say that Everton have the best team for years and on the other hand they say Martinez should go. But the present team is largely down to Martinez.
He joined Everton in May 2013 the following September he signed Romelu Lukaku on loan in an audacious swoop under the noses of West Brom.
He signed Gerry Deulofeu on loan from Barcelona ~ not mant managers would have been able to do.
John Stones and Barkley were at the club when he came but he has developed them from teenagers to the players they are today.
He brought in Robles, Kone and McCarthy from Wigan ~ they have all been successes ~ in fact I can't think of anyone he has brought in who has been a failure.
Martinez has done all this on a relative shoestring and made millions for Everton Football club.
Who do the doom-mongers want to replace Roberto? Brendan Rogers, Louis Val Gaal or other celebrity managers who have lost their clubs hundreds of millions. The first thing a celebrity manager will ask is what is my transfer budget.
 
Please don't think I think he is perfect He grates me in his post match interviews. nobody's perfect so I put up with that
I think he should use substitutes better. every match 14 players should be used, if there are no enforced Substitutes the bench should be used at roughly 60mins, 70mins, and 80mins. Again I put up with that rather than call for him to be sacked.
 
Last season everthing went wrong for Leicester, but this season everything is going right for them.
Lets hope the tide will turn for Everton in the New year starting with 9 points over the Festive Season

The price anybody pays ~ £200M or £250M ~ will go to the shareholders. So I am not worried how much they pay.
The important thing is how much they are going to invest over and above this to make Everton Football Club financally stong and successful.
