The return of David Moyes

[alwaysblue]

Dan Gosling!

Vellios

 

[lieneverton]

I think he did

Vaughan, Anichebe, Rodwell, Hibbert, Chadwick, Rooney, Barkley, Shane Duffy, Maggie Gueye, Ruddy, Turner, Baxter,
Akpan, Agard, Forshaw, Bidwell, Garbutt, McAleny.

Probably more from when he put out a full youth team for Europa game.

Yeah, I seem to remember a very experimental team when we failed to master BATE.

Dyche laid the foundations, Moyes rebuilds the house.

As it was meant to be.

Foundations on the beach?

Akpan, Agard, Forshaw, Bidwell, Garbutt, McAleny.

Feel like a lot of those players got their 1 start in a Uefa cup game when we had already qualified from the group. I vaguely remember watching a game where I barely knew any of our players and may have possibly fell asleep because the game was dreadful

Just said he did give them a chance.

Looking at that, maybe he didn't. Hiw many of those got more than 1-2 games?

I hadn't realised how much Moyes had spent at West Ham until one of their fans was telling us on here yesterday.

Did Moyes spend it ?

 

[barneygumble]

was an old German player - Horst Hrubesch

Ah sorry! My bad

 

[Leylo]

He's better than dyche and he's back, cry all you like he's here that's it, not sure myself but he's here let's go get behind him and crack on can't be arsed moaning anymore. Handbags away we've got to get in our new ground in the premier league that's it...

 

[BlueStevie35]

Did he play youth players? I can’t even remember

Have a fair few run outs in dead rubbers in the UEFA Cup/Europa League also gave James Vaughan his memorable debut

 

[Bryan+]

Tragic.

 

[GoldenToffee]

I hope he's at least leveraged our desperation to ensure he gets the final say on transfers. I do not trust Thelwell one bit, and who would looking at the state our squad has been left in this season? It's clear he overruled Dyche on O'Brien and Beto, likely as he was able to negotiate low to no initial payments. Hopefully those days are over and several incoming players are just a number of days away.

Cheers Marc.

I probably fall into the ‘best of what we could have gone for” category with this appointment and in true Everton style, my mind is doing ten to the dozen to convince myself that this is a very wise decision and one that will the first building block of a very positive next few years. My blind optimism initially is based on just the following:
Moyes appreciates a good solid defensive system with centre half’s who do the basics well - he already has that in place so he does not need to alter between now and end of season
Full Backs - this is a guy who brought in and developed the 2 best full backs in our recent history in Baines & Pienaar. He knows what the fans want so unless Mykolenko gets on the magic pills ASAP, I’d imagine Moyes will have Thelwell in a chair, pulp fiction stylee, to get out there and enhance what we have.
Midfield - can’t see funds allowing much change with Garner, Ireogbunam coming back, but Moyes appreciated the need for a central midfielder who could actually pass a fookin ball! He will have arteta standards in mind
The unknown - Can’t see Moyes allowing Calvert-Lewin to wind down for rest of the season so can he eek any more out of him, between now and seasons end
PSR - nobody has a clue where we stand, but we bid for likes of that Nuamah (apparently) in the summer without success so reckon there is scope to deal. In what is probably our most important transfer window in recent history, I’d much rather Moyes made the call than Dyche
Thankyou for listening to my pitch, I’d like ten pints and a toothless brass for 20% of my business ??

Welcome to Grand Old Team mate.

I'm not going to read all that at this hour, but I saw you said something about ten pints. May I interest you in a pint glass?

He's got grey hair but we don't care?

 

[blueblue]

He's definitely gonna talk about what a tough job he's taken on. He'll lay the groundwork for absolving himself from any responsibility should things go south.

He doesn't need to, we all know where we are. We have all been watching points slip away all season and have all been watching games where we show no attacking threat.

It is a big challenge, if Sean Dyche had been able to pick up extra points he would have survived until the summer and we would have more options then but survival is key.

Let's wait and see what happens in the transfer market now.
