I think it’s so funny that he randomly loves Thelwell.
I’ve done some research, and his hatred of Moyes goes back a long way.
Probably because he doesn’t play with a trequertista, or use a false inverted 9.

One conclusion I'd draw from last night is Armstrong doesn't need a loan.
He's better than both Iroegbunam and the frankly poo James Garner. So CM reinforcements in the transfer window aside he'll be getting minutes in the PL.

If you haven’t watched the two pre-season games against premier league opposition and you think people are bedwetting then you are in for a bit of a shock.
We’ve looked less fit as them, we have a really weak and thin squad and the football has been sloppy and nowhere near the levels of the opponents, apart from maybe 20 minutes against Bournemouth.
Coming back from the USA on the back of 3 defeats to PL opponents isn’t a good look for any team.
The people calling it bedwetting are the same people who thought it was a good idea to give calamity Keane another contract.
Not only have we got a thin squad, it’s also filled with a handful of players who aren’t good enough, like Patterson, Keaneto to name but 2.

Spot on. We used to get players quite easily before because of the wages we used to offer, especially in the early moshiri years. Now we offer same than any other prem team outside top 7/8...I bet you even villa now offers more than us when signing players. We need to prepare to spend more because we are currently not attractive due to the lack of European football. That's what Newcastle did, and it worked for them. The only thing is that we can not make the same mistakes than in the early moshiri years. We need the right players for those big wages. The reality perhaps is that TFG dont want to spend more than the others even if we have the psr room. They dont have to do it with roma which is very attractive as a football club. Unless they change strategy, they will never be successful here, at least not in the short to medium term.

People said this a month ago...
A few people need throwing in cells.
You think because you write these long laborious,quasi-analytical posts that they are somehow deserving of an equal retort....well they're not.
Your post was just that "BALLS,"
Not one of your posts comes from balanced,fair minded thinking.
It's easy to see your hatred for Moyes because it seeps right through anything you post,and leaves you unable to deal with actual facts.
Your hatred is that strong you openly admitted to not celebrating a 94th winner because he picked Doucoure,which led me to believe you're not actually an Evertonian.
I think you're more just someone obsessed with Computer games and scouting players though a PC monitor,which is fine but I'd suggest you'd stay in that lane
Is that Riposte any better?
Why even reply if youre going to write a dick comment and be a dick ?
Find somewhere else to put yourself.
Writing dick comments and then making some kind of 'agenda' up is pointless...
...who says im writing to you? Just ignore the post.
This has not been a good window so far for us, that’s plain to see, but other than a few top teams who can splash the cash for fun, who has had a good window?
Probably only Sunderland - who perhaps are gambling offering contracts we will no longer risk. Other teams around us weakened in quality not just numbers - Glasner echoing Moyes saying he is down to bare bones, with Eze still likely to go. Brentford having a fire sale and Wissa still wanting out. Wolves doing very little etc…
Towards the top, Newcastle have struggled - secured Elanga but Isak wants out. Villa - no one of note. Forest - perennial transfer madness has not happened.
I think the divide between those with the money and those without has never been bigger and is having a huge impact. Agents all holding out for a payday, but there are only so many to go around. As and when Chelsea and co shut up shop and say their business is done I think it will be chaos and will have our chances. In our favour is that we don’t need to appear to sell to buy, so can avoid being in a chain so to speak but as we’ve seen for so many years and Moyes is suggesting, we’re not good at getting things over the line. Kinnear has said it will be later in the window but by the time it is closed we will have an exciting team. Time will tell.

I'd very happily take two signings + late loans now. The question is can we make those signings in the next week or so, to the level good enough to offer some starting options.
That would ease the pressure to a large degree.

I’m really shocked we haven’t made more of the free agency market to fill gaps, there has to be at least 2-3 players who wouldn’t be on mega wages surely?

Personally I don't want to see Garner in any midfield, I honestly don't see what he brings to the table, no assists, scores very rarely, just not good enough as far as I'm concerned
