Martinez: Howard is Everton's No1

Everton boss Roberto Martinez has assured Tim Howard he's their No1.

Martinez had praise for goalkeeper Joel Robles with regard to his efforts in keeping the three successive clean sheets, although he is set to be dropped tonight against Chelsea.

Howard has recovered from the calf injury that has kept him out since Boxing Day, and Martinez said of the United States shot-stopper: "Whenever Tim is fit, he is our number one."
