Why Everton are better off with Roberto Martinez Amidst many high profile changes in the Premier League, with Moyes, Mourinho and Pellegrini entering, or re-entering in Mourinho’s case, the Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City jobs, an appointment that will have gone more under the radar than the aforementioned trio is Roberto Martinez’s appointment into the Everton hotseat.  In my eyes, Martinez provides not neccesarily a safer option than Moyes, whose defensively secure, slow type of football was steady and would ensure Everton consistently achieved at least a top half finish, however, as Manchester United fans are finding out, the Scot hardly promotes free flowing attacking, or counter-attacking football. With Martinez, Everton are playing a quick, more fluid possession based attacking game ,albeit at the expense of Moyes’ defensive solidarity, but these issues will resolve themselves over time. Martinez’s dealings in the transfer windows are also shrewd ones, selling Fellaini to Manchester United for the princely amount of £27.5m was seen by many as an aberration, and would be seen to be a rash move, however, the emergence of Ross Barkley has filled the hole filled by the Belgian, alongside the shrewd acquisition of James McCarthy from Wigan, who fits Everton’s new system of football far better than Fellaini, and indeed a certain Joe Allen from the other side of Stanley Park does Liverpool’s. Bringing in Romelu Lukaku, albeit on loan, is an excellent signing for the Spaniard, the Belgian is Premier league proven and has already scored 5 goals in 7 appearances. As I write this, Everton are in 6th place, level on points with Manchester United, and playing a fluid free flowing attacking system that is wonderful to watch, whether Martinez will bring the same success and stability long term that Moyes did remains to be seen, but Martinez is doing a good job thus far.

What i wrote to him in response:
Dunno what games your watching Connor. The axis of our attacks are Moyes buys and a youngster Martinez has fluked upon being ready at the right time. He spunked 6m on a striker who wont play again this season, Barry is this years Gibson while McCarthy has done ok but he is only Carsley on acid with little bit of skill mixed in. We played some fantastic football under Moyes last season but its conveniently forgot because we have a guy who speaks with a Foreign accent which somehow makes him better according to some fans. When in fact our defense has never looked so shaky and only poor finishing from opposition players have kept our heads above water in most games, relying heavily on the prowess of a Chelsea player while he also continues to piss off the only fit senior striker who is permanently on our books
