2024/25 David Moyes

[Lapeno77]

There will 100% be a slow start next season just based in how many new players we need. Add Moyes on top, and you can be certain we wont be going until october at the earliest.

Not sure he can afford it.

Currently, we're 2 wins in 13. Probably going to end the season 3 in 16, providing we be at Southampton which after yesterday isn't guaranteed.

Now we start slowly and pick up a win or 2 in the opening 10. 5 wins in 26. Doesn't bear thinking about.

He's got to figure out a way to come flying out of the traps.

Give Dave 70mill to spend on a striker and im fairly certain you will see us climbing the table a bit too.

I think we’ll see a bunch of names we’ve never heard of before being picked up from various European leagues.
I don’t think we’ve got the funds to splurge it on one front man. Major surgery is required on the whole squad so I think it’s going to be another building-blocks kind of season but we need to make a major effort in the cups this coming season.

Lets just say thank you David and go for Iriolla.new ground new start.

Been saying Iraola for long time to People here & Friends. Not many even acknowledged me until now. Then again our Squad is worse than Bournemouth’s & they’re not guaranteed Top 8.

 

[matty1878]

Except it doesn’t does it?

Forest, Villa, Bournemouth, Newcastle all went from bottom to top quickly with a single managerial change and a bit of money (not lots though).

Amazingly they all sacked crap dinosaur British managers right before their ascent!

Food for thought.

none of them have gone through what we have to the extent we have

moyes is here for stability and that’s it for now - he will have us top 10 comfortably

He does seem like a marco silva type that we should have given more time .but then again i wanted silva gone at the end,so im not the best judge.

Youre right, my post was pointed at the people saying Howe got Ncastle up the table very quick. If we had money to buy an Isak-type striker, we would climb the same way. I hope the club is digging deep this summer, insted of buying a bunch of expensive known quantities.

 

[Walken]

The original plan was to run with Dyche till the summer and then replace him.

Moyes was never going to be that guy. Will they let Moyes who was a stop gap revamp the squad or will they go back to the original plan??

They'd be fools not to keep Moyes, heo builds us a platform and makes their next appointments life far easier and the club far more secure.

I think some of you actually like relegation battles

 

[AS Roma_fan]

Let me ask you a simple question. If you had a manager at Roma for 12 years who won nothing and finished in the top 4 once would you be happy if the club’s new owners put him back in charge for two and half years?

I don't think that winning is the number 1 priority right now at Everton.

You must rebuild the team and get back to the top-6 spots. Moyes, who knows the club, might be the right man. I don't think a 6th place next season could be considered a failure. He can do it. Then, from there to the top-4 there's a huge gulf. You'll have enough time to find someone else. But for a season or two Moyes can deliver.

I think Guimares was the first big money signing under Howe in the January transfer window. Pretty sure Isak came the following summer.
There was a massive improvement under Howe though, from the get go.
Like you, I want us signing young, hungry players, not other peoples cast-offs and has-beens.

Yes if we had no cash and had to deal in the bargain basement. Unlimited cash then maybe someone else but we haven't. Most of us that are not in the clouds will accept stability and mid to top for a couple of years then once out of the quicksand we can kick on

 

[jceverton]

This is why you'll never be happy, you have unrealistic expectations that we're suddenly become a force again overnight. You'll continue crying because it takes time. Almost like you don't remember the last decade.

You’re chatting absolute rubbish What have I said that’s actually unrealistic? Quote me, I’ll wait with bated breath. I just don’t rate Moyes as a manager. If you put him in charge of Liverpool at the same time as Klopp and gave him the same budget would he have won what Klopp did? No chance, he’s just not that good.

Another warrior championing the cause of mediocrity. Do you think Kendal had unlimited cash when he built the 84-85 team?! He had to scrape the money together to buy Reid and Gray!

Hardly relevant, just because Howe did it doesn't automatically mean our next manager will or we'd have done it already.

Another one who'll continue crying with unreal expectations. Another who seems to have forgotten the last decade of decline, manager after manager.

Surely some stability is needed here for a change. Another manager doesn't guarantee anything. You all know that though, you just don't like Moyes.

I'm all for stability but there needs to be a level of expectation. Moyse has always been a pragmatist first. The fact that both Newcastle and Villa have both been in the Championship not too long ago and now look like they're going to both be in the CL means we should be able to do it too. Time will tell.

 

[davids]

The richest club in world football?

We need a hit rate like they have had on transfers, not signed a dud since the takeover.

They do have an unlimited (in principle) war chest. But they haven't spent outlandish sums to put together a CL side. Let's hope our owners have what's needed to put us in a similar situation.

 

[davids]

Maybe we can find a 20+ goal a season striker for just a bit less. Forest look like they'll make the CL. With the right level of ambition from the board and management team maybe we can do likewise
