2025/26 David Moyes

[Toffeepot]

He needs to go in the summer. No point in leaving him in charge to sign a load of players that he won’t pick and the likes of Ndiaye won’t want to stick around for another year in a team playing 7 defensive players every game and playing in home games where you just try and nick a goal from a set piece.

Can you imagine JB rocking up in a utd shirt saying 'I loved Everton but I'm happy to be playing my favoured position now'?

Btw if we’re talking a new manager in the summer I’d rather we take a punt on a manager in and around Europe over hiring from within the Premier League past and present which we’ve done with every hire since Moyes left in 2013

Bring Glasner in

Probably limp to three draws out of the remaining games. See us to forty points. Also calling it now that Spurs finish above us. Have us down with 15th.

 

[Toffeepot]

Well perhaps after tonight the vail has finally slipped

Just honest assessments
Some more patient than others I suppose but eventually a spade needs calling a spade
Somethings off that wasn't off before it seems to me.

We’ve won 4/14 at home. Less than one win in three home games.

it isn’t expansive though. It’s slow ponderous and predictable. There’s no tempo, no movement, just aimless passing around the box then blind hopeful crosses when they realise moves have stalled - I can’t think of a team more hapless in attack than maybe Wolves and Burnley in the entire league - everything is so slow and ponderous, there’s no overlaps or overloads, nothing. The fact that we got caught on the counter doesn’t mean we were doing anything of note

Think he now has 7 wins in 27 at home since he came back, shocking

‘We pushed them right to the end’?

Did we?

Felt more like we tried to stifle them for about 50mins then had a couple of ½ chances.

He’s got many strengths but unfortunately he’ll always be in awe of United and Liverpool. They could put 11 kids out in red jerseys and Moyes would still say they’re a bigger club than we are and it’s always difficult getting something against a United side historically, if you can come away with a point or get out alive you’ve done well.

We need a manager who thinks ‘this is a flaky United team so we’re taking these tonight’. Moyes isn’t that man and never will be.

We won’t finish that low, I don’t see Spurs having too much climb tbh, they looked awful yesterday

He done it at Old Trafford though?

Sounds like a lower league manager last week in the cup v a prem team
He loves a glorious failure
Nothing glorious in it to me

Branthwaite
Mykolenko

Garner

George
N’Diaye
Dibling

Barry

Just one game Moyes, give it a try.

And the best game I have seen KDH play for us this season was Forest at home when him and Garner played in the middle of the park.

 

[Chegsy]

Surely the must question

The home record

The lack of playing over 70 million pounds of talent

Maybe they have but at the same time as some have suggested maybe they are happy that we have moved from relegation fears and low finishes to currently mid table.

We will see over the next 18 months how ambitious they are but I think people suggesting they won't tolerate him whilst we are currently 9th are a bit wide of the mark. That could change if we start sliding down the table.

 

[Taifi gorm]

Probably reactionary?... but why do we fill the team with giants and yet fail to pick any of them out from a corner!!!!

Been poor at set pieces at both ends all season

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

I’m a Moyes fan generally, whilst accepting his faults. But I couldn’t recommend any decent player, particularly young, come here under this regime. There is no logic to anything.

Need some more injuries and suspensions so he can actually pick an effective dynamic team when there is no choice.
