Martinez happy for Everton to work loan market

Everton boss Roberto Martinez is happy to keep working the loan market.

Martinez believes that the loan market can continue to reap rich rewards for his club - provided the character of the players enlisted is right.

"Remember that the loan market will always be important for us," explained Martinez. "Having three or four players on loan gives you something fresh.

"They have a point to prove and they give you a real sharpness on what we have in the squad.

"We already have a stability with the core of the squad - and remember that we have long-term injuries in the likes of Darron Gibson and Arouna Kone and they need replacing in the short-term. Those two players were going to be important this season and they're going to be important in the long run.

"But I think the loan market is very very important if you use it correctly and you use the right characters, and clearly we have that."
