2024/25 David Moyes

[JobForTheMoyes]

Kudus and Bowen aside as a team we're better.

Based on what? Soucek scores bundles of goals, JWP one of the best set piece takers in the world, Kilman is a 40M centre half, etc.

 

[davek]

It’s not churlish to state facts, he improved last season but at the same time also had us on a horrendous run during that season

This season he just went right over the cliff, like the early season collapses to Bournemouth and Villa just seemed to knock his entire mentality

Maybe, maybe not..but is there any need for people to be slagging him off even now?

 

[davek]

If we had Soucek he'd be first name our team sheet

Ok throw him too.

Can you think of another player they have better than ours?

...steady.

...and that's ALL he does btw.

 

[windymiller]

Because Doucoure has to start

Managers love him (except Lampard), it's weird.

Paqueta>Doucoure, JWP>Garner, Kilman>Tarkowski.

Steady? It’s simply a fact. And he played plenty of diagonal balls that had us at sixes and sevens today.

Paqueta>Doucoure, JWP>Garner, Kilman>Tarkowski.

Kilman couldn't lace Tarki's boots mate...not even in the same universe.

…..post-match; ‘we know we lack quality’.

It’s what we’ve needed to address, hopefully we do that in the summer. Ndiaye makes a difference but imagine this side with Bowen and Kudus.

Kilman couldn't lace Tarki's boots mate...not even in the same universe.

Maybe. He’s younger and has good stats. Tarkowski has had a number of poor games this season.

He’s a good defender, but Kilman was on the fringes of England and went for a (probably too large) fee.

At this stage I would rather have Kilman as he has years ahead of him and seems to be less error prone.

There isn’t much need to slate Moyes either let’s be honest

 

[knowing your history]

Under Dyche we lose that game.

Probably just a draw like the 0-0 down there. We're over two thirds into the season so ultimately one of those mid table draw games you get in March.

The problem with keeping Dyche is he like wouldn't have beaten injury hit Spurs or at Brighton and those two results were utterly critical in pulling so quickly away from the bottom 3. Plucky draws from those two and side would've remained within reach of 18th like for most of the season up to February.

Moyes didn't have to come back let's remember. And if he really wanted to get back into the game quickly he could've decided to go to Leicester when they appointed Van Nistelrooy.

That would've been a big problem but luckily this was the only club he'd want to come out of semi retirement for in the bottom half.

Sooner have Branthwaite and big Jake than him.

 

[Marius57]

Can’t wait to have real options so he doesn’t have to use Harrison and doucoure every single game.

Imagine Ndiaye in there today.
