2024/25 David Moyes

[Thomasc]

Ha Ha Ha.

I'm a Benitez fan.

FFS.

Fixed

i have him blocked

has he really said that?

He's just trying to get attention while people are frustrated at a draw in a game we should've won.

Thing is, you have to challenge opinions if they are totally unhinged.

If we followed the knee jerk reactions of some or followed every suggested decision, we’d be the most unstable club in the world and the poorest. No club has the best manager and the best player in every position who makes the right decision at every point in a match from start to finish including on how they interview. You work with what you have and extract the best from them.

 

[Drico]

He’s better and the team is great. I can’t think of anyone in the PL I’d swap him with. And for that matter, I can only think of 5 or less in the world I’d consider. Some people are just so hung up in the past that he was our manager and left. Or he’s too old. Some people who are lifelong fans couldn’t list 5 things they like about their club. This is a glorious time to be a fan of Everton.

I mean, I know I'm 53 in a few months and getting on, but really?

I know things have been terrible, but "glorious"?

I mean, I am still spinning from Tarky's howitzer - and that was indeed glorious - but we haven't known a glorious time since the last six months of Joe Royle's first season which climaxed in glory at Wembley.

Everything since has been plucky underdogism.

Thank God I was a teenager in the 1980s. Now THAT was glory.

He really does have his own agenda.
He put all his eggs in the Moyes being rubbish basket and has been found out to be the fool he is.

Don't forget he also said the stadium would never get built.

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

Fair point, mate. Better to say a fun time to be a fan after the dark years with renewed hope and that fun spirit I haven’t felt in some time. Looking up the table instead of down .

he’s probably comparing dyche to now!

He mostly just talks

 

[GrandOldTeam]

I confess they weren't my thoughts as that United equaliser smashed into the back of the net.

He's done very well. You cant argue with that. Bit he's nowhere near the manager we need. The PL is terrible and we can cut short our mission to get back to the top with a bold and ambitious appointment.

I think fans will tire very quickly of Moyes.

Well, TFG had someone lined up who wasnt available until the summer. Thomas Frank perhaps?

But I think they'll keep with Moyes. I think they've been burnt at Roma and terrified of being seen as crazy meddling yanks. You only had to see the briefings/PR around why Dyche had to go and that wasn't at all needed.

Tricky, as short term form and short-term circumstance shouldn't dictate long term planning.

*Re-adjusts self on fence.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Had hoped he'd let off some steam over that VAR shout.

 

[Bluelenny1984]

He stuck two pairs of fresh legs on AFTER they got back to 2-2!!!

Yes, and we go on to get what was a clear cut penalty and are robbed of the chance to win the game, and then this conversation is very different and you don’t have a chance to moan.

Moyes has worked nothing short of wonders with the same team as Sean Dyche drove in to the ground. It isn’t just the results it’s the way Moyes has taken the players and given them belief and confidence and then got results to.

If Moyes was doing terrible I reckon @davek would start defending him

 

[CrustySack]

The way I saw it, the ref handed ManU the impetus time after time. 2 points dropped was nothing to do with Moyes. People saying he should've done this or that, but hindsight is a wonderful thing.

We don't like not winning these days. Moyes has transformed expectations in next to no time. He's brilliant. End of.

Obviously.

 

[Marcus Kendall]

I dint think Spurs is a great draw to a manager. They're right up against it from day 1. Iraola will know that.

I think a manager of Iraola's ilk will relish the challenge of having a young talented squad like Spurs have. Similar to Pochettinos influence at first over there. Its a mute point anyway as Moyes will be here next season and quite rightly so
