2025/26 David Moyes

[DOMNOLAN]

You forgot Barry

I omitted that because we don’t have any other strikers. But yes, he is dogturd

 

[chicoazul]

Indeed.

Play form over names too.

Too many times has someone had their best game for us, like Alcaraz or Rohl a then legged out the team.

Agree with this.

 

[Blue Pride]

Pointing that out would be bed wetting heresy to some on here. Oh well.
Off to wet the bed. Will read the usual excuses about steadying the ship, unreal expectation folloeing another home FLOP against a team below us tomorrow.

NSNO.

At least it's not the Everton Reddit page where any criticism of Moyes gets downvoted into oblivion.

 

[DOMNOLAN]

Strange how his most positively received starting line-up of late on here were a bit crap given the indisputable expertise on these here forums.

Wasn’t on here before the game, but one change from his normally dismally received lineup shouldn’t mean anything.

 

[WilliamBoo]

Add what pal?

 

[Moomin]

Not Moyes fault that we lost.

On the players.

If we win its all Moyes though.

 

[edge]

still dont understand him trying harrison on the wings or as a 10

I thought that was a bits strange, would have thought Charlie was the obvious one to get a goal back

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Too many times we fall apart at the seams offensively so our inability to sustain any sort of pressure WITH the ball is an overall hindrance to controlling a game.

 

[blueblood]

Keeps saying that we need to find a way to improve the home form. And then does seemingly nothing to try? Same set up, same players, same limitations. Every time.

What’s his thought process? ‘We played really well against Leeds with 3 centre backs. Maybe I could do that again and we might win games by more than one goal. No, no… that’s silly. I’ll stick with what I know. A centre backs at right back and a crap left back. Bournemouth won’t be expecting that.’

 

[Marcus Kendall]

Does anyone think Moyes will think to himself the home form is shocking I might need to change the side? Or do we all think once Jake is back he'll be back at right back again? And what does Idrissa have to do to be dropped? He's okay away from home when we don't have to be as assertive but at home when we need to be on the front foot his limitations in possession cost us not to mention his ridiculous attempts at long shots

 

[Walken]

3 gimme points against an awful Bournemouth side thrown away. Needs to address our weak areas, ie full back and striker

 

[blue to the bone]

Not really tbh…..

Epstein files thread more interesting than that one.

Maybe add yourself to the accountability thread. Or Epstein… up to
You

Have a lie down mate
You are having a meltdown

 

[Moomin]

Not to put this defeat behind us and focus on getting to the next round of the FA cup.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

The biggest thing about Moyes that bothers me from a tactical standpoint is he doesn't seem to know how to rotate properly. Which kind of puzzles me more as in why did we prioritize so much depth in central midfield when we were going to streamline the starting lineup regardless of fixtures and opposition?

Why rotate players out that were in form like he tended to do? He just does so many puzzling things with his starting lineup and that isn't even taking into account the transfers we made or failed to make. It's built funky and it is run funky. It is hard to keep players happy if they can't get reasonable minutes.

 

[Marcus Kendall]

He's on the verge of the 'Phil Neville legs falling off point of no return'.

Moyes will play him until he, metaphorically, dies on the pitch.

Poor lad.

It's perplexing isn't it. He probably looks at his running stats as a justification for playing him but at home we need to be more controlled in possession which isn't exactly Idrissa's forte
