2025/26 David Moyes

He could have bought himself some sympathy if he had switched to an actual right back early in the season when it was clear O'Brien didn't fit the mold there. As it stands, it's arrogance from the manager that prevents him from progressing at the club.

Thought he could get by without fixing the fullback positions in the summer and now he will just sit on his arse and blame the lack of players available. Just because there are holes in the squad doesn't mean there aren't things we can fix or improve. He just wants somebody to blame. He wants excuses.
I think he likes Jake at right back for his added height, I seem to recall he preferred Lescott to Baines for this very same reason
 
You watched us play recently? Injuries, absent players, suspensions (now), Moyes highly questionable decisions -or lack of......, no transfers this window (they won't be coming!)

Not sure where your confidence comes from. Yes, not absurd to aim for top 10, but lets be realistic.... .....it is starting to turn very sour.....

Yeah we're a bit crap - no balance, no pace - we have charity cases upfront and I'm not going to dwell on Moyes.

The same was true the past 2 seasons and we earned the points for 12th and 13th - margins are slim, we're doing better than previous seasons and I think that trend will continue and we'll finish 8th-10th.

Margins slim though - but as I say, we're still right in the mix.
 
Which is why he has to unleash fury over the refs. If wants it to paper over the cracks, by all means, by that’s a lot of paper he has to generate if he does…
I don't blame the officials tonight
Keane shouldn't be pulling his hair, dickish thing to do, and grealish should know better too

Overall officials are dirt but complain about them when denied clear pens instead of when they do their job

Moyes sh@t the bed tonight, not the refs fault at all imo
 
Didn't think we played that well in the 1st half to be honest mate. Thought we were slow and ponderous as usual. How many saves did Sar make. 1 I think.
I said 'reasonably' well and wasnt saying it was amazing. But we at least had players travelling forward with the ball and getting crosses in etc. None of it excuses the evening as a whole
 
He didn't make the subs when he should have. The players got frustrated, flustered and made stupid decisions which totally ballsed it up. Cock ups all round, starting with Moyes first.......

Barry and McNeill were terrible tonight. McNeil should never have been in the starting line up. It's crap for the players on the pitch having to work with him, and totally demoralising for better, hungrier players, who need developing and support, sat on the bench.

Thanks for last season and the bit of stability you have offered this season, Davey. But, as much as I want you to succeed, it ain't gonna happen.

No more time for romance and jobs for the old boys, end of the season, it is his time to go........
💯 re the subs, could see it needing freshened up. Dithering Davie strikes again.
