2025/26 David Moyes

[hkb6970]

Moyes' has had 2 FA cup ties sínce he came back,and lost them both at home. Add the Wolves debacle in the league cup and it proves he's not a boss for a cup run.

Outside of the mega money clubs, that is every manager in the league. I'm fed up with people pretending we're the only club with injuries and players at AFCON. Dealing with situations like this is what he's paid enormous sums for.

We've lost today to banter club Sunderland. I mean, they are a great club but have been so mismanaged in recent history and have come from such a low base that if we cannot reasonably hope to beat them at home in the cup, then why are we even bothering?

There's always an excuse for Moyes from some. The season is effectively over now, because even the excuse merchants will tell you Europe was never a reasonable aim.

So that's that. Let's all hail the surge to 12th.

He keeps bleating on about waiting for the summer window. At this rate the best business we could do in the summer is pay him off so we can get a manager in who will set us up to win games and play with a bit more drive.

How attractive will we be in the summer?

A team that bombed out of every competition, will almost certainly not be in European competition, and with a manager that has shown he doesn't trust his signings. Do we look like a good option to new players?

Next few weeks will be a struggle. We'll doubtlessly pick up and get ourselves into about 8th only to fall at the final hurdle and slip back down to 12th. The Everton way.

It'll also be a strange one when all the players are back fit as there's going to be nowhere near enough games for them to play in. The season really does grind to a halt when you're out of both cups and Europe by January 10th.

Hopefully with give our glorious leader the chance to play the fringe and youth players a bit more.

TBF, they spent fortunes on some very good players and have a very good manager.

We've been popping in and out of the European spots this season, that's because of good management and good business in the summer. We've taken some brutal hits with injuries and Afcon, the suspensions made it even worse. Honestly I don't think any manager could be doing better under the circumstances, Moyes is stuck between a rock and a hard place as any manager would without their best players.

Its because there are so many teams performing badly that we`ve been getting the slightest sniff of a European place, and its down to bad management and poor business in the summer that`s left us sliding down the table and out of the cup so early.

And we always go out at home to middle of the road premier league sides, I said on here yesterday we never beat a premier league team in the fa cup.

2005 called and asked for David Moyes back.

They came from the second division, did indeed buy some very good players and have a very good manager. Why didn't we buy some very good players and attract a very good manager?

 

[Saint Domingo]

It’s clear both Patterson and Aznou could have played a lot more minutes this season. They’ve been treated like 15 year old academy players who have never played a senior match. Ridiculous when we’ve had O’Brien labouring at right back all season, and midfielders playing wide and left back.

 

[Gilbert..]

Im not sure many managers get much more today. Comes to something when Sunderlands bench is 10 times stronger.
It is time to move on at the end of the season though. Club needs a fresh approach.

 

[Daytripper]

Once a few players return we will probably pick up a few decent to ok results, the talk will be of summer recruitment and on we go again. Same stuff basically as years before that will likely repeat itself next year as well.

Let’s not forget he was saying yesterday in a interview that 8/9th could be the max the club aims for in the next few years.

Existing FC.

Entire team is allergic to passing forward. Aznou comes in and actually runs forward and the whole team is absolutely shocked something happened.

 

[Drico]

Was he asked if we practiced them?
