Dumbed down or born too late. I wasn't around for those glory days. I only know Everton as a fair-to-middling club. And there was quite a stretch between the glory days and Moyes taking over.

In the end, we want the same. But if it ever happens, it won't happen overnight
It certainly won't happen with the Moyesiah, a man who thinks a win at Aston Villa is a "magic moment."
 
Initially he did but I felt we went for it and were the better team in the second half Dave. Initially I was disgusted with four centre halves starting in defence for different reasons.
I wasn't. If we have no better FBs then those four are all very capable and experienced players and Branthwaite and O'Brien are quite offensive if need be.

The disgust from me came from how we sat off them for most of the game and just played as disruptors rather than with any balance in our tactics.

Moyes is an utter dog of a manager.

Yes Dave balance is better achieved by playing players in their proper positions, Patterson is a much better fullback than Job, but you won't agree to that due to obvious reasons, Mykolenko's is a better fullback than Branthwaite, but was injured and our other fullback deemed not ready as yet ! We need two new fullbacks. But Patterson should have played as her done reasonably well in his three prior games and I have no idea why he was dropped, but over you have. o_O

He was dropped as Moyes doesn't rate Patterson, will only play him as a last resort it seems.

well he played him three times in a row I think, then dropped him for a centre half, a centre half who hasn't really performed well at all at full back this season. Everton looked far more balance with Patterson playing there, three clean sheets was it ? I don't feel Patterson is the answer nor is Mykolenko's on the other side, there both adequate, we need better.

Keane was suspended, he trusts Keane more than Patterson from the starting lineup just gone.

As a matter of interest who the "f" are our full backs in the reserves who perhaps should be given show on the bench.
 
It was rather strange, O'Brien was going to be moved back to right back and Brantwaite was going to Partner Tarks with Myko as Left back.

Myko gets injured so instead of playing Patterson left back he brings Keane straight back into the mix

Maybe it's a case of Moyes not wanting to upset one of his centre halves. :) Would love to see a Job/ Branthwaite partnership err, in the middle before long with two new attacking fullbacks. Until then I never want to see four centre halves in defence ever again, thought them days were gone with Walter Smith's time here.
