We are getting some results… but his team selections and subs are baffling.
the reluctance to play an actual RB…. The stubbornness of playing Gana or even Keane coming straight back in.
We are lucky enough to still be in the kind of position we are after the last 6-7 weeks.
yes, he is the man to stabilise this club hopefully and make us a mid to top half table team which he has done before and is doing now.
But if we have any ambitions of winning anything in the near future then he is not the man for the job.
As for this season, I do believe we need Europe finish or something ti keep hold of our better players and build again for next season. This season is a good a chance as any…
We need to follow up the good away win with a home victory… something we cannot do this year!
….i really don’t get the confusion over the RB situation, it’s not difficult to understand.
He plays O’Brien because he believes he’s a superior option than Patterson. I happen to agree, I think Patterson is a defensive liability so I understand why it’s done. O’Brien is also a genuine threat in the opposition box, as we saw yesterday. You might disagree but that situation won’t change until we acquire a conventional RB with better quality. Hope that helps.
Not sure if Gueye was POY and PPOY last season, he’s just come back from being outstanding in AFCON. I think his stats are still amongst the best in the league.
Moyes wants him on the pitch at this current time. Be patient, we have Armstrong,
Rohl and
Iroegbunam to transition into his spot in the not too distant future. He’s a fabulous player, enjoy him whilst you can.
Keane played because they are managing
Branthwaite’s game time. It’s testament to Keane that we played half a season without truly missing
Branthwaite, who’d have thought he’d be such a decent back-up.
None of this is complicated, thankfully the manager knows what he’s doing

By the way, we won yesterday.
