Moyes had West Ham playing some quality counter attacking football at times

I'm happy with us not being camped on the oppositions 18 yard box like some teams as long as we can make it count going the other direction.

Dyche and Allardyce comparison with Moyes begins and ends with possession. Moyes is a far better manager

Time and time again we are seeing teams doing well with lower possession. It has become a theme of football over the last few years.

If anything, it is the ball hogs who are old hat at the moment as they keep getting done on the counter.

Indeed, Pep tries to get around it with rotational fouling, so he know his preferred way has inherent disadvantages.

Genuinely looks like we’ll need 10 players if both Keane and DCL leave as expected, and we loan out both Armstrong and Chermiti like they need to be. That’s not even including Tim who probably needs a loan too, but let’s say he’s currently third choice behind the Gana/Garner axis.

- Starting RB
- LB competition for Myko
- 4th choice CB
- CM, a starter next to Gana
- Starting RW
- Starting CF
- 3rd choice CF
- #10
- 2x backup keepers

Reckon that equates to about 4 loans, 2 frees, and 4 players we actually spend a bean on. Huge summer, yet will be surprised if we sign anyone until July.

he doesn't, if we loan him out it confirms moyes is incapable of developing talented youngsters

Also these days with the high press becoming popular, counter attacking is having more joy

Palace and Brentford for example get a lot of joy with it against top teams.
As long as we have a plan against low blocks ourselves we'll be grand and I do think Moyes can manage that far better than Dyche
