Moyes has a year left on his contract. By telling Moyes the club will wait until the end of next season, or close to it, that I feel will put him under sufficient pressure then maybe he'll think seriously about how he does in the cups. Of course, a bad ref. decision(s) could put us out of both...

That will depend on the owners.

Firstly, I'm not out to 'convince' you as you are clearly looking for a scapegoat and Alcaraz is it, for you Secondly, you keep pointing out 'twice', which is bizarre in the extreme. It would appear once is ok but 'twice in 60 seconds' equals unforgivable. I hope you apply that same criteria to...

When we went 3-1 up, from their kick off both Garner and Tim were miles apart so were Keane and Tarkowski, all not covering themselves in glory. So the through ball was easy to deliver to Haarland and he scored. We didn't do a very good job of 'preventing them from attacking us' which surely was...

His current contract runs until June 2027.

The only way he should be given a new contract is if he wins something.

So we're back to not 'closing down' Doku. Neither did Garner. As far as the header goes - attempting to head the ball to one of our players (who had a two one one) - was the right choice to attempt as it would have given us a chance. The player ran 40 yards

Moyes is a do or die on what he does and just hopes something happens rather than constructing a team that can control the ball, pass and move and create chances. But the pressure is on now, as he's had money to spend and brought in a lot of players. Next season will be make or break for him if...

He doesn't stand still He moves a bit and puts out his left leg. As far as giving the ball away in the last 60 seconds that led to the corner = 'brain dead'. Alcaraz clears the ball from their corner, chases it down with Ndiaye and Barry tries to head the ball to Barry but doesn't connect...

Not 'closing down' Doku, seems to be a major issue for you. If you don't like a player fine but using a certain criteria for Alcaraz ( brain dead has cost us on Monday ie. not closing down Doku) and not applying it to others is a bit lobsided. Because surely Garner not 'closing down Doku ie...

O'Brien and Branthwaite should be the starting pairing next season. Tarkowski will be a decent squad player at best, but should be nowhere near starting games unless there's an injury.

We're stuck with Moyes for next season and it'll be the same as this season. Players will be asked to run around a lot, will only play if they work hard and take no risks on the ball (the only exception will be Ndiaye), be cautious, work up and down, be mindful of the play breaking down so...

If 'closing down' Doku is the issue with Alcaraz, then both Garner for his first goal and Alcaraz for Doku's second, didn't do it too well.

We've been overtaken by other clubs as the table shows and by those that win something. The new owner will want steady after the last number of years. They are here to make money, however, will they accept 'steady' after next season, if we finish where we will this season and winning nothing.

There is a big difference between a 'safe pair of hands' and 'what we need'. A 'safe pair of hands' will probably not have us in a relegation scrap, which will suit the owners. We had money during the Moshiri era, and built a new stadium but we haven't won anything since 1995 and no matter how...
