2025/26 David Moyes

[Nymzee]

Masks are slipping in the wake of an away win at the 2nd place team.

 

[Efcjake]

But they'd written the game off as one we couldn't win because "we have no players available".

Lol.

And thanks to David Moyes he pulled a rabbit out of the hat and galvanized what few players he had available to him to beat the 2nd placed team in the league at kick off.

I asked you earlier. Did Ndiaye and Gueye have a good match? KDH? How do you think Branthwaite played?

Oh they didn't play because they weren't....what's the word.... Available?

I'm delighted. Id be even more delighted if that divvy hadn't have thrown a load of points away lately and knocked us out of the cup.

You’re not delighted. There’s not a single part of you that’s delighted. You’re a liar and a troll. Bore off, this isn’t your night, but don’t worry, Everton will lose again in the near future and you can come and enjoy that, in the meantime stay in your lane.

I’ve not watched a second of it, but by all accounts Gana has been excellent in AFOCN. Let’s see, my overall point is that for all our injuries, suspensions and international breaks has hit us at the same time.

Definitely.

This has been a bigger test of our quite meagre squad than most of us would imagined we’d get all season. Some haven’t done much to further their cause, but others have played well enough not to lose their place immediately.

I fear that Moyes could destroy any momentum we have picked up from today, by dropping players who don’t deserve it, in favour of players who’ve done nothing (at club level - I’ve not watched Senegal at all this AFCON) to earn that place back.

Picking up results like that when some of our best players are returning very shortly *should* be cause for optimism but I’m a 43yo Evertonian. I don’t traffic in that nonsense.

Good comments after the match

I liked how he said its a trait of this Everton team to get results anywhere.

Let's keep that mentality, and have more confidence in future. Some self belief.

It would help if some had some belief in the manager too maybe?

Deffo bubbling under. Trying to hide their anger with our best performance of the season.

 

[Curtis]

Who are you speaking about here?

That squad is thin enough to see through.

I did want Dibling over McNeill today too if that's what you're getting at.

Today the lineup was fine my issue has been he doesn't reward players when they do well so when keane is fit is O'Brien going to stay in? That's more my gripe in that vein

 

[summerisle]

That's the Dr.Jekyll Moyes, would love see his Mr. Hyde, for all the good it would do.

I think he has inherited the distaste for Patterson so unfortunately the answer is a probable yes.

Gareth Southgate?

Not a wum people will have you believe.

My only desire is to see Everton safe.

Moyes wont do it and these players need a boost. Southgate would hand us it. Illd hand these players self belief. And boy do they need it.

Interesting you didn’t comment at all when we lost there last season from 2-0 up. Why was that? Because you liked the manager?

“Moyes won’t see us safe”

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

How pathetic do those people who've been parroting the dullard Moyes' excuses of having 'loads of players out' look now?

You know who you are.

Wait, so are you saying we don’t have loads of players out?

 

[Drico]

We're going in the right direction BUT we need to get there a bit quicker.

He's not going to change his approach at this stage and there's no reason that we can't get into Europe with this team (players back of course).

This is exactly it. Europe should NOT be out of the question this season. We have enough about the squad to achieve that. I'm not saying Europe or sack. I am saying we should be in the race for Europe until the last week. But the owners have to step up. Not spending this window is unacceptable - especially if they intend keeping the manager on in the summer. Back him or sack him.

 

[Gilbert..]

You didn't say Birmingham.

He said at home. They're based in the Birmingham area.
