Your team is 2/1 down at home and your chasing the game, your manager has 2 attacking options and a defender on the bench what action would you expect your mamager to do to try and salvage something from the game is it A . Bring on another or different attacking option? Or B. Swap your right back for another right back? Answers on a postcard to R Martinez goodison park L4

To be fair it was the right back who came on and had 2 clear goal scoring chances which is more than anyone else had! If Coleman put those chances away then that substitution would of been a stroke of genius!

I want Martinez gone but I don't think it was a bad sub either. Oviedo has no right foot at all and he wasn't contributing at the back or going forward. Frankly, having watched him yesterday I can't work out why he was ever considered to start at rightback. He can't play there full stop.

Oviedo should not start there. That's the point he has no clue. Coleman from the start.

Surely if Coleman was fit enough to be on the bench and come on he was fit enougj to start? Why not give him an hour then bring on Bryan? .

All very good in hindsight guys, if he started Coleman and he got injured then everybody would have slated him. Think he did the right thing in bringing him on for the last 30 mins and he actually had 2 sitters when he came on. Plenty do blame Martinez for but let's not pick holes in everything he does.

I personally didn't think Oviedo was playing bad at all. Don't see why he had to be pulled off when there were other options on the bench.

Tmh, I thought he played really well against city at right back but was pretty poor yesterday. Too left footed to play there in my opinion.

Thought Swansea had him worked out, and knew he would always turn inside.
