Oh I see Mark. He's Iranian so he must have something to do with chemical weapons.

Fucking outrageous.
I'm not sure whether this is serious or not. I just Mark was thinking that now that Everton are out of the cup their fans' full ire will be turned on Martinez.

You dont think he was implying that they were going to literally poison everyone then?

Should we expect quite a poisonous atmosphere on Saturday then?

It's been poisonous at home for the majority of the season, so I expect much worse on Saturday.

The funny thing is, for a side needing a win to get back into form, Bournemouth at home is a bit of a dream game. You're safe, and you seem to have took your foot off the gas in the last few games. But having said that, we recently played Palace and Watford, who you would have said the same about and we couldnt beat them either. We've won of our last 9 League games...that was at Villa...and only 1 home win since November...that was against Newcastle!

Yeah we know all that mate, there is no doubting he has been a football innovator. But the key word is has. His last good season was 2011/12. And does he even speak English?

Why not look at someone like Eddie Howe?

In answer to your two points: In all honesty will Everton get a manager who has won or accomplished anything?
I also think Howe will be another Moyes, but we have money to invest now and I would like to have someone in who has experience of spending money and, most importantly, putting it to good use.

Howe another Moyes? Howe couldn't set a side up 4-5-1 to grind out a result if his life depended on it. Howe is cut from the same cloth as Martinez, it's all about attacking with pace, the defence sorts itself out as long as you keep attacking. If Everton wanted Martinez but (IMHO) better, then that's Howe. If Everton want somebody to address their defence, then that's very much not Howe.

Maybe with managers like Howe and Martinez who are largely driven by attacking football, it is more about who they have amongst their backroom staff that can spend time working with the defence?

Howe is surely the last manager Everton need. Not to do down his achievements, and I do think he's good, but he wouldn't exactly be a breath of fresh air after Martinez. He'd hardly improve their defence.

If Everton really have got the money there's no reason they couldn't get a manager who's achieved something. Watford appointed a Europa League winning manager ffs.

Totally agree and I think Howe would be daft to go to Everton anyway. He's in a sound position at Bournemouth because of what he has achieved, particularly this season, and I imagine even with the standard tough 2nd season in the PL he will remain backed by his bosses and the Bournemouth fans. If he went to Everton, he would be under pressure to improve their situation from word go and with him not having 'big club' experience I'm not sure he would cope with the pressures coming from the supporters, particularly those who feel Everton should be competing regularly for a top 4 spot.

For me, Everton need to go big on their next appointment with a manager who is well known and has enjoyed success with a big club from a decent European league. Hopefully for them, the new shareholder will be thinking along the same lines as I feel that if it is left to Kenwright he will simply go back after Moyes and I really can't see it being the match made in heaven that it was first time around

I can't comment on Martinez, but Howe's view is that defenders first and foremost are there to start the patterns of play and retain possession, because that's how Howe himself played CB. Howe's defenders need to comfortable on the ball first and foremost, physicality and defensive robustness comes second, because as long as the whole side back to front can retain possession and move the ball around well, they won't need to defend much.

When Howe has drilled a side for months and month and it all works, it's absolutely beautiful. But sometimes in reality it's not hard to see that it has flaws which get ruthlessly exposed, for example when we come up against a top 6 side this season.

Regarding the backroom staff, that's another issue Howe would have elsewhere. At AFCB, Howe controls everything at the club top to bottom, he appoints everyone from first team to under 10s, controls the way every age group train and are coached, our entire club is built around Howe and moves to his beat. No other club, especially a bigger club, would ever give one individual such power. It would be quite a culture shock for him I feel.

That's probably fair comment Smat.

Benitez. He lives in the area and there is a good chance he won't be at Newcastle after this season. He'd be a fantastic appointment I reckon, just what they need, providing Everton fans could get over his Liverpool background. Lots of Liverpool fans would hate him going there, personally I wouldn't give a shit. Very much doubt it would happen though.

Possession football is certainly how I like to see football being played and the fact is, if you keep the ball for 99% of the match, you won't lose. The reality is, however, that this will never happen and at some point you are going have to be able to defend not just in a physical manner but in a tactical and an organisational manner as well. The latter is probably where teams struggle more so when they are managed by someone who prefers to concentrate on the attacking nature of the team and yes particularly against teams with higher quality players.

Regarding your last paragraph, I don't actually see that as being a major issue to be honest and I would be surprised if the top clubs don't allow their first team management to have a say in who coaches and how they coach their youth teams. The future of England coaching revolves around how older youth players are coached (under 15s upwards) and how they can be taught at that age to play in a style that the first team manager wants the first team to play so that when these youngsters step up they can fit into the first team system easily. I see no reason why this can't be extended down the age groups but obviously some of the work would have to be adapted to suit the age groups as talking about transition and other technical aspects to 10 year olds probably won't work. Yes, with Bournemouth being a smaller club I can imagine Howe having a say in pretty much everything, but I think you'd be surprised at the level of control first team managers have over youth coaching at most clubs

Wenger's power at Arsenal has been established over a 20 year period. If he were to leave this summer, I very much doubt his replacement, regardless of their quality, would enjoy the same situation.

I didn't mean Howe would have us playing like Moyes but he is a safe 'lets keep us midtable ' option. We need to have a go and Bielsa or Pellegrini are better choices.

If there's any chance of getting Pellegrini we should go all out for him.

I do think that Eddie Howe would be a much better appointment that most people think, although ideally I'd prefer someone more established. Be interesting if Howe does stay at Bournemouth if he signs any defenders in the summer

The TalkSport breakfast show must have mentioned Hughes to Everton more than anything else this morning although it appears to be a story emanating from just one newspaper journalist so doubt this has any legs just yet

Certain media certainly seem to want to push Hughes to Everton quite hard.

Let's face it, he is rather a mercenary manager quite happy to hop around clubs.

The meds are just putting two and two together and throwing names out. The only one I can honestly see getting Martinez sacked so he can take his place...is Moyes! Because I know what Kenwright is like!

Villa and Celtic, get your fingers out and give him a job will you?

Why did Everton hire Martinez in the first place? If they hire Moyes, we'll be saying the same thing.

Because he said he'd win the league or something like that
