2025/26 David Moyes

[davek]

You think Micheal Keane and James Tarkowski will morph into ball playing defenders if we get a better manager? Lol.

No. Not Keane. But we have players that can play like that in defence.

The manager decides not to.

 

[ChesterBlue]

It screams really poor man management at best

I’m furious with our management point blank after that.

Assed if “Moyes is a late starter”. I’m not having performances like that and none of our fans should. His job is to coach the ‘kin team, and he blatantly didn’t do that properly

 

[Papa Shango]

Says he’s confident we will get players in the door

Sound.

Lets hope he bothers to actually play them!

 

[Neiler]

Be critical off him tonight, he went for a point minimum and would have been happy to nick it.

You think Micheal Keane and James Tarkowski will morph into ball playing defenders if we get a better manager? Lol.

No.. but for a lot of the other younger lads they absolutely could be performing much better with better coaching. Not exactly a hot take..

 

[wainy]

Certainly not with a right footed midfielder at left back, a centre half at right back and Gana and Tim as your deep midfielders.

Exactly. It's common sense. And makes even less sense with a 6ft 5 striker on the bench.

75% on moyes that, whether is was a weakened team or not, things should of been changed after 25 mins tactically, and certainly a least 1 sub at half time, waited to long to bring grealish on and beto should of been swapped for Barry.

 

[bullybeef]

Has he done an interview yet?

Yep.
Fuming with the pen.
Thought we should have got a draw at least.
Said we were looking more likely to score,
Said he thinks we will do something in the transfer market.

 

[BlueStevie35]

Deserves all the criticism tonight, worst game since he’s been back by a country mile

 

[Axlswhk]

I'm pretty sure they were playing to his instructions

I don’t think that is the instruction. Unless he wears brown shoes.

There is nothing wrong with Tarkowski on the ball! His ability gets massively overlooked.

All of them were so bad on the ball that you wouldn't find any worse the league below. We missed Braithwaite so much from that perspective too.

We dont mate. Tarkowski is a yard dog, great defender but not a ball playing one. Mykolenko couldn't do it. O'brien played like he had lead in his boots tonight so thats another one.

 

[jceverton]

Then who has picked them?

It’s a complete mystery mate! The amount of people on here who still think Moyes has got nothing to do with recruitment is bizarre.

 

[wainy]

I respectfully disagree. Regardless, he wasn't the issue tonight. Thought the two cb did well.
