CHOULO19 24,332 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Couldn't agree more. With Martinez especially, I really don't see any progress for Romelu with Everton this term, this really isn't the best option for him. He should've stayed with Chelsea & we should've sold Ba.I disagree. At WBA he always had tons of space to exploit as they played on the counter. Clarke even used him as a "super sub" in all the big games because he's have more space in the second half but also because, despite his physical strength, his hold-up was well below average. That just won't cut it here at Chelsea. At Everton he will be playing with a team that keeps possession high up the field. So I think he'll learn and develop a lot. Martinez is also one of the best managers in the league tactically so he will help Romelu develop his hold-up play and movement which he will be required to do at Everton. I think this will be a crucial season for Romelu. Gilvorak 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Curious, mind expanding on why you say that?His teams are always play a very tactical game. For example how they press in phases and how the players move on defense to mark passing spaces instead of players is not exactly typical. Player movement and passing on attack is also straight off the drawing board with the team sometimes executing a system of calculated 10-15 passes just to created a space for one player. Almost everything they do is drawn by Martinez as opposed to us last season for example when we main just relied on the natural ability of people like Mata and Hazard.

Liquidator 5,176 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 He wants to win. Is that not a good thing? The media will take it completely out of context of course... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanishBlue 426 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Can't be mad. He has to suck up to Everton and their fans and it's a good start saying that he wants Everton to win. Obviously he wants what's best for Chelsea - he is just being clever. He is an Everton player atm, he doesn't play for us this season so it's only fair.

bababoom 4,478 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 He's not even playing on Saturday, so don't tell me he wants to 'win'. He needs to use his brain, this is not the first time he's said something without thinking. cadenza666 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying anything else will warrant an unhealthy reception from the fans didierforever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 He should have sought advice from an expert on how to answer it in a political manner to keep both sets of supporters sweet. On the other hand it was unprofessional of Everton TV to ask that sort of question anyway. Blue Armour 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only place to be 11,313 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Good on him for answering a question honestly. I like footballers who are honest so I'm not sure why people want "political answers' to prevent their feelings from being hurt. Some people really need to worry about real problems. johnnythefirst 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
