2025/26 David Moyes

12 teams did not spend more than us last summer. As per Transfermarkt, we are 13th with a spend of STG 129.75m on the list ONLY if you cost Jack Grealish at no fee. Feel free to do that if it helps lower expectations.
Ok so factor Grealish's fee in or whatever? How many of those teams are you still expecting us to finish above.

We will ignore the very obvious fact it was the first investment in the squad for five years.

with no goals virtually all season

Not hard. We knew what to do: the away games at Bournemouth and Forest and today were peas in a pod: get behind the ball and work your bollocks off.

When you have decent players it's more than enough unless you're playing Arsenal or City.

They divvy could have done that all this Christmas and new year period but instead just brought out a load of excuses about having no players.

Grealish cost us a £10m loan fee, why are you being dead weird? Have you been around the whole league and added up the “actual” value of all of their loan signings? Because if you haven’t then your argument is pretty pointless.

I would think top 10 - even 10th - is a very reasonable expectation for the joint sixth-highest paid manager in the league who got to spend nearly 130 million in the summer and add an England international once valued at 100 million on top. I would have thought getting past the third round of both cups - or even one - wouldn't have been too much to ask for. I would think being in the shake-up for Europe by the last week of the season - even if we miss out - would not be too much to demand. Right now, Moyes is par for the course in the league and has failed miserably in the cups. With no distractions to worry about now, and no midweek cup games to stretch the squad, he has no more excuses.

His true believers must surely back a man of such talents to achieve these modest ambitions.
