2025/26 David Moyes

I'm pretty sure a decent last 10 games or so of this season will get us top 10. The league is just so poor that winning another 4 or winning 3 and drawing a handful more will get us over that dotted line between 10th and 11th - which is a psychological improvement if nothing else.

But no one can want this feller to manage here next season. He's not a coach he's an anachronism. He cant do much else than get the wagons into a circle...and that'll be enough with our quality to get mid table, btw. It's just not enough.

I expect TFG to dismiss him - top half finish or not.
 
We were playing a more attacking game and they caught us on the counter

That’s the risk you take

People complain about “cowardly” tactics, but there’s a reason we do better away and that’s because playing as an away team suits us more

I think we need to accept that playing a less expansive game works better for us and we should lean into it
I'm not sure the people complaining about cowardly tactics at home would be doing so if we were winning at BMD with any kind of realistic regularity mate
 
I posted in the match thread. We're not in danger of relegation. We're not trying to hold on to a European spot. What was the point in setting up that way? What is the purpose of playing so many out of position, having 3 centerbacks and 5 center midfielders on the pitch? Why wouldn't we have a go? There's just no good logic to it.
That's the frustration for me. We could be using these games to build for next season but instead we'll have Keane, Tarkowski and Gana playing 90%+ of every available minute.

I really hope you’re right. There’s no way anyone can defend the dross Moyes has served up in home games this season.

If he wants to do that then put Branthwaite at CB...stupid putting Keane there and then saying let's attack.

You make no sense.

Golden handshake, that’s been my theory for months, get through the season as high up as possible, leave a solid baseline for a fresh start in the summer
