If you play to create chances and score goals you have a chance of winning. If you play to weather a storm and hope that due to the law of averages you get a chance and put it in the net you more often than not lose.

I will never understand how certain managers have made a living off doing the latter and god knows how, in 2025, they’re still getting employed.

loved that performance in the main, felt like I was watching a different sport compared to what we’ve had previously.

Absolutely great for 70 mins, then legs go and the usual head loss starts, poor goals to concede but huge improvement on whatever Dyche was doing, and I trust Moyes to keep the attacking threat whilst tightening us up further.

Collective pressing as a unit, faster progressive on the deck passes and fullbacks and midfield getting near to the cf - simple game really isn’t it.

Nice to have quite a few contenders for motm - DCL looked interested with support, lindstrom caused them all sorts with his delivery, ndiaye is a joy to watch, and is much more effective when he’s supported higher up centrally, but still did his defensive work, obrien looked as comfy as I’ve seen a cb, quite branthwaite-like but I went for idrissa - he covered every inch of Goodison, made some great tackles and cleaned up messes, pressed like his life depended on it and then als played some lovley progressive through balls on the deck - he drove us on to win the game imo, was everywhere.

Fair play davey, mad what a real manager can do isn’t it. Same again against Leicester and it’s a really good, positive start.

Would like to see Patterson, Beto and Harrison Armstrong in this system/shape - think they have something to offer until the other injuries clear up.

Enjoy toffees, nice to win a game of footy.

Ps - Kev the red - rescue Richy from his yid hell please, ta!
"but I went for idriss"... good to read that someone watches the players and sees what they do, even when it is not spectacular.
