2025/26 David Moyes



Has anyone on this forum actually played football? Most of the other teams in the league spend just as much as we do if not considerably more, they train just as much as we do and they want to win just as much as we do. Most of them have considerably more talent at their disposal than we do. We have no divine right to win any premier league game.
You really don't like any minor criticism being labelled at David Moyes, do you? Enjoy the rest of your day.
 
People wanted Moyes out in his first spell. He left, they got their way.

And we proceeded with 8 chances at the 'Right for Tommorrow appointment'

We are now back with Moyes, once again lifting us up from the ashes..

The grass isn't always greener !!
No he left to take the Man United job...on the sly. Then tried to get our better players on the cheap. Please don't try to rewrite history.
 
12 clubs spent more than us. Some considerably more. Last season’s champions for example spent more than that on a single player, not just once but twice. We spent just £1m more than Burnley. 6 clubs spent nearly twice as much as us. You do realise it isn’t 1998 when £97m would get you 4 world class players.
No matter what you spend you have to spend it effectively. Your target should be to address the main weaknesses in the starting 11 and ultimately build a balance squad. You can't do the balanced squad in one window, so the main priority has to be to address the first team weaknesses. For me these were RB, LB, RW, a no 6, and a first choice no 9. Now you can make a case for Garner being the first choice no 6, in which case you need a backup for him. To sort those positions out has to be the priority for me and to fail to do any of that is really poor imho.

Going into the season with no specialist RB was criminal.

We've probably been the worse run club from the top over past 30 years. Basically Kenwright and Moshiri were both completely shocking owners. All things considered Thelwell and Purdy did an amazing job with the squad given the constraints they were working under. When you get a new ownership you hope to God they know what they are doing and want to get Everton back to challenging for the title. Getting Moyes back and agreeing to ditch the DOF role because he didn't want to work under it are to me backward steps and not the actions of owners who have a clear vision about how they can achieve success. Now it's all very well arguing that Moyes is going to steady the ship but if we don't get the recruitment right then all we'll have done is wasted a lot of money and a good few years.
