Moyes back to doing the things that frustrated me so much in his first spell. Favouring utter crap which breeds negativity. I think Doucoure is going to end up playing every minute he is here under Moyes, which I have a sickening feeling will not end at the end of this season.

We couldn't get on the ball and create, so he takes off one of our only two players who can (because he couldn't get into the game) to replace him with the only other one. Done, just so we can keep Doucoure in place. A really top manager would have got them both on the pitch. He keeps playing Alcaraz out of position to accommodate Doucoure, and yet still isn't sure of him apparently, even though he still ends up being our best player when out of position.

Keeps bringing McNeil on the right, yet doesn't like his players shooting from distance - which is the only thing McNeil can do when played on that side. We only started playing a couple of balls down the side once he took Beto off.

He's done well overall since he's come back, but let's be fair, the last few games have been an utter shambles, just to accommodate Doucoure. Last game he was on about bringing Keane on because he doesn’t want to mess up too many positions, but is happy to do it and put everyone else out of position to accommodate the world's worst CAM.

I'm looking forward to DCL coming back so Moyes can select the only attacking line up in world football who are in the side on the strength of defensive contributions and not attacking prowess - DCL, Doucoure, Harrison and McNeil. And that will happen despite the fact DCL is leaving.

Absolutely fuming at the state of that. I'm back to not enjoying watching us play again. What I wouldn't give to be treated to aj extended display of good attacking football for once 🙈
 

phone in.

first caller,

"I know calvert lewis has had injuries, but maybe jamie vardy...."

its not word for word, 'lewis' is right, and vardy got mentioned.

no idea who vets these calls. if someone gets through as homer simpson they've won the lot.
 
We were pretty rubbish but still only lost by 1 goal to a team chasing champions league whilst we have nothing to play for.

Shows how poor the league is really. If we can keep hold of Branthwaite and add some much needed quality up top then we could end up top half pretty easily.
 

Weird atmosphere. Everton safe, lacking cohesion and a bit of energy at times.

I'm glad Moyes is getting a good look at the squad... what kind of dollar are expecting to spend in the summer?

If it's sell to buy, I'd keep:

Garner, Charly, ndiaye, maybe gana ( 1 season), McNeil, beto, JP, O Brien, JB and tarks, + myko ( just!) + any PROMISING youngsters we've not had a good look at yet.

The following we need to move on

Tom Iroeg, Douc's ( contract up, right?), and sadly probably Coleman, if not deffo young.

Plus chermiti, Keane and DCL, prob Patterson and Harrison.

That's a lot of salary for a RB, CM, and forward and attacking right sided player.
