2024/25 David Moyes

[gixerk6]

Is it me or are some posters being stupid?

No one is complaining about the results on the whole since Moyes came back.

Why WE and anyone with some foresight are annoyed, frustrated, angry, disappointed etc...

...is because Harrison, Doucoure, Broja to name just 3 players are getting starts / time ahead of players who can add value to the team today and get valuable time to get used to the league for next season.

Alcaraz in the 10 today would have been ideal to see how he combines with Ndiaye. Instead Doucoure in the 10 and Alcaraz on for Ndiaye.

For me, this is pathetic.

Broja came on for Beto. A Chelsea injury prone donkey. Why not Chermiti who is actually an Everton player?

For me, this is also pathetic.


Third is Harrison. No need to expand.

Pathetic.


Good, if not great results....extremely disappointing team selections

I think he’s pushing for Broja game time as we still have that option to buy deal on him and he wants to see if it’s worth doing. He was interested in him when he was managing West Ham. Personally I’d throw him in the bin. Wasn’t enthralled being linked to him all the time before we loaned him as I always thought he didn’t offer a whole lot and was too injury prone and now he’s here it’s just cemented my opinion on him.

A short time ago we couldn’t score a goal never time win a game. We are now scoring and we just drew with the second placed team in the league and people are plying on David Moyes. We are still in the early days of stabilising, we are nowhere near where we want to be but surely people need to be a bit more patient. David Moyes has earned the right to pick whichever players he wants at this stage. He was brought in to stop us being relegated, he has done that.

I don’t think TFG are going to pull the trigger on Moyes in the summer

Good.

I think weve seen Alcaraz deliver more than Doucoure. Hes given us a glimpse of a future with looks more exciting than it has been for years.

More of what though? our manager wants more defensively or at least as much defensive work as his attacking work.
Doucoure does more defensively = preferred over Alcaraz (for now at least), especially against a team Moyes thinks can tear us a new one, which unfortunately is generally anyone in the top 7.

Agree completely.

How Alcaraz & Ndiaye arent being used together has really annoyed me.

Broja is dogdirt and we saw Chermiti last season show more than he ever has.

Harrison i can kind of give a bit of a pass to at the moment with McNeil coming back and Young being finished...plus Patterson covering for Mykolenko.

But surely theres an alternative the next game -- though its a broken record.

Can’t believe folk can’t see that we set up to get something out of the game! Like it or not, when we’re playing a possession team, going head to head would be suicide.
Not a fan of Doucoure but his attribute is suited to this game, take it move on.

If he’s still playing against Southampton and Ipswich I’ll be with you, but c’mon, it’s horses for courses.

Sun shining, enjoy a beer and be grateful we’re competing and a premier league club. We’ll see what attacking prowess we have against the lesser teams. If we don’t, then I’ll agree with you

Moyes has let me come off the pills for me nerves

Im half tempted to give them Dyche back. Ungrateful idiots.

There are good signs. There are bad signs. We will be absolutely fine with him.

The question is are they going to let him take recruitment over. That's a terrible idea and if he's pushing for that he needs to be let go this summer. DOF, any DOF, so that the club can stabilize itself.

ha ha ha ha ha

I like Moyes. He's a good football manager.

But I've got a horrible feeling he's not going to play Ndiaye and Alcaraz together. Too much skill.

He prefers physical hard working number 10s. Fellaini Doucoure Cahill etc

Alcaraz and Ndiaye work hard though.

Ndiaye especially.

Interesting that some of those who said no one could do better with these players are now not happy when we are actually doing much better with said players.

By the same token, a lot of people who were adamant that we were a top half team now seem to be perfectly accepting of us only winning 1 in 8 with no clean sheets in the same time frame. We don’t need to have manager wars, everyone should just accept the evidence that’s been in front of their eyes for about 4 years - we have a very poor squad.

Very few would suggest this squad is top half. And if they do they are delusional. 12to15 would be the general consensus.
