Everton under Martinez
With Moyes off to the Theatre of Dreams after 11 years the Toffees also needed to find a replacement in the dugout and despite getting Wigan Athletic relegated in 2012/13, turned to the respected Roberto Martinez.
In fairness the Spaniard had led the Latics to FA Cup glory with an unlikely victory over Manchester City in the final and like Rodgers is considered one of the great young managers in the English game.
Yet not many at Goodison Park would predict just how good the 40-year-old would be, with a comprehensive 3-0 win over Arsenal on Sunday leaving Martinez’s men looking like they can join their city rivals in the Champions League next year.
