2025/26 David Moyes

[Marcus Kendall]

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.

We've known this for a while. He's too timid and cup ties are there to be 'won' not drawn

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.

Loads of people on this thread are genuinely trying to make the argument that newly promoted Sunderland, who signed about a dozen new players in the summer and have half our wage budget, have a far superior squad so what was poor Moyes supposed to do. That's the Sunderland that is one point above us in the league. It's like a rinse repeat of the Dyche arguments 18 months ago. We've just got to recruit better managers.

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.

Well said Saint. Play players in their natural positions and shock horror things look more balanced

Hopefully the plan for his replacement is being finalised for the summer. I'm glad he came in when did, as we were going down under Dyche.

I’d like to thank David Moyes for serving up 3 of the worst back to back Everton performances in ca calendar week and even managing to treat us to an extra 30mins of it as well as the worst pen shoot out I’ve ever seen. Stirling stuff!

Well said. Instead of the hysterical nonsense spouted by a few.

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

If anyone in here had suggested recruiting Regis Le Bris as manager at any point in the past 10 years they would have been derided as a hipster on this forum. If you suggested it now I guarantee that he would be described as "flavour of the month" within the hour. It is not only our managers that are dinosaurs, it is a substantial chunk of our fanbase.

Decisions will have to be made in the summer, and that’s up to the owners. But of those who definitely want him gone, I’m very interested to hear about a list of managers who would have us flying high with this very, very depleted squad. We’re just going to have to ride this out for now until decent players are back.

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?

There is an opportunity cost to #stability at all costs.

People like Ndiaye will be harder to keep and attracting good players remains as hard as it ever was...

This is the exact argument that was presented for Dyche.

Some week for the 8th best paid manager in the league that

We'll all ride it out until the summer. We have no choice. Then let's see the Friedkins come up with that list. That's their job.

Well season is over in early Jan…like every f**king season!

this week has killed us off…3 winnable home games and blown the lot

12th if were lucky…

He has thrown the cups away! To finish in the bottom half!
