2025/26 David Moyes

[BigBeto1]

Really great of Moyes to allow us to laugh at Liverpool all weekend only for us to have the exact same problems

 

[windymiller]

Has the pro Moyes faction been absolving him of responsibility today pal?

Take a look at @JobForTheMoyes posts and get back to me.

Looks like hes fallen into the trap of just looking to play the same side, regardless if it works or not.

We've currently got a very limited left back, with a left back on the bench who is too raw for him to consider

We've currently got a centre half playing right back, when there's a right back on the bench who seems to be there as a token gesture but is currently fit.

A centre half out of form whilst one plays right back

A centre mid who isnt having the best of times (Gueye) but keeps getting selected

A number 10 (KDH) who isnt a 10 but Moyes seems to think he adds goals and links up play. There's no way Alcaraz wouldn't be on at least 1 goal and a couple of assists if given 10 games in the 10 spot.

The less we say about the strikers the better, just alternating them hasn't worked and isnt working.

I worry he's so convinced this is the best XI we're a long way away from seeing any real changes. Almost like we need some injuries for him to stumble on something new.

He said he wanted us pushing up the league and that he has no intention of being towards the bottom. A huge few weeks with a few big decisions needed by him to ensure that doesn't happen because right now it could go either way.

Someone needs to hypnotise the guy so he believes that he hasn’t signed any of the present squad and has been hired to get us out of a relegation battle.

He will bring to our club what we need right now. Stability. If that means mid table finishes, without the worry of relegation, for the next couple of seasons, then I'm all in. Probs too many commas

It is EXTREMELY weird, to me, that Moyes doesn't think having competent fullbacks is a necessity for pretty much every club. I'd reckon about 40-50% of all of his "success" for Everton was based on having 2 absolutely ballers for fullbacks. What the [Poor language removed] does "it wasn't a priority for us" mean when, literally, the first player we went for was a fullback and then never went back for another one?? I seriously wish ANYONE would just call him out for being pretentious about it.

Phil Neville and Alessandro Pistone?

Coleman only really had a season under Moyes, and Baines took a while to get established after joining in 07.

Has to go. DINOSAUR

Decided to play Myko almost as a wide forward today .... Ofc he's crap going forward but let's not play the lad who's good that way.

But then again let's focus our play wide drawing gaps into the middle, then let's not get fullbacks so they get doubled up on, and let's not play anyone central who can take advantage of the spsce.

Bloody dinosaur as a manager

Errrm, look at how many games Coleman played for him - he played hibbo at RB, he also preferred Lescott at lb until he got absolutely ripped apart in Europe

This month could be quite something

Yep totally bizarre decision.

Take a look at @JobForTheMoyes posts and get back to me.

I’m not absolving him of anything. It was a poor result.

I think he did that with Myko the same way as he started KDH on Illy's side, I think he has seen the slow build up one side and has tried to counteract it, if that is the case than atleast he is seeing it..

 

[jackyboy]

All jokes aside I'm looking forward to revisiting this thread in a a few weeks as don't think we get a point out the next three.

Gives one of our most talented players 4 mins of playing time when we’re 2-0 down. His constant subbing like for like with Barry and Beto is so bloody annoying.
