Don't get me wrong I know we need strengthening but I am not too disappointed that we have made no signings in this window. I have said before that I did not want Martinez to be entrusted with more funds.
I am also not surprised that Kenwright has been in hiding and been indecisive. Ultimately he has to take responsibility for our proud, long standing, top flight status.
We have enough ability in this squad to finish top half if properly organised and motivated, despite the next four fixtures.
I will be extremely focused on tomorrow's team selection and match itself to see if Martinez has picked up any basic tactical acumen whilst away in the sunshine.
Basically if it is another square pegs job I will be bricking it.

Former Blackburn and Chelsea striker Chris Sutton on BBC Radio 5 live: "I think Everton are vulnerable at the back and have conceded far too many goals.
"I thought Roberto Martinez said he could address that easily, but it doesn't appear to have been as easy as he maybe initially felt. You do sometimes get a big team that falls into the relegation battle and it could be Everton this season.
"I think maybe at times they should be more direct. When I say direct I don't mean long ball, just being quicker in the transitions from defence and midfield into attack."
Roberto, please read the above, that is all we are asking.
{Ed025's Note - i think he has got it spot on DM..

Don't hold your breath Ted, in tonight's Echo while talking about not needing to sign a winger, El Bob said.
“I do think when Kevin Mirallas is fit and with Aiden McGeady - and the possibility of Ross Barkley and Steven Naismith to play in those positions - I think we are strong enough in those areas at the moment, â€
Looks like square peg syndrome to me mate!
{Ed025's Note - i seen that quote wedge, and my stomach turned..

I can believe it Ed025, Had the same effect on me. I left out the bit about how "Christian Atsu will be an important player for us in the second-half of the season" and the rest of the drivel So that readers didn't lose their dinner's.
{Ed025's Note - i know wedge...and i shouted at the screen..."well why have you not been using him then dick head!"...you couldn,t make it up mate sigh..

Ed025, I posted earlier this week. and pointed out a lot of the same stuff that a lot of the posters on here are talking about. Isaid I did nt want Bobby sacked, just him to be more flexible blah, blah, blah. After reading the above. unless we see a drastic change today. he has to go. if this quotes are for real ( I don't read any interviews anymore. I was bored of the same boring. team spirit and character trash talk. months ago. none of it ever made sense). you ve converted me to a Martinez out member
{Ed025's Note - i dont want to convert anyone jclaff, its just that i fear for our future mate...if bobby could turn it around no one would be happier than me to give him another chance, but we will have a clearer picture in a week or so i imagine..
